Yeah I do think they have made it deliberately this way. It can be a bit annoying, I really notice it on Slime Climb, I haven't managed to finish that one yet.

I've got to the final round a few times now but not managed a win. I've just been enjoying this, most of the games are fun & short enough so it doesn't really matter if you're eliminated. I'm not a fan of the team games as much, especially the egg one been beaten badly a couple of times on that one. Overall though I'm having a great time on it.

I always wanted a Mega Drive growing up but my parents wouldn't let me have one as I had a Master System & I "didn't need it". Had to always go round my mates house to play Sonic. I do have a Mega Drive & Mega CD in the loft at my mums, going to have to get it out & see if it still works next time I'm back.

Absolutely loving this game. I've been playing for a couple of hours everyday since Friday & I've just finished Act 1. The story is engaging & really enjoy the combat. The side quests & other activities just seem to make sense & you come across them quite naturally. Also this game is stunning, I've never used photo mode so much.

Couldn't get on this yesterday due to the servers but really looking forward to giving this ago later today, looks lots of fun.

I modded Vita a few weeks ago mainly to play older stuff or the odd PSP game & being able to use a normal Micro SD Card as storage is a god send. I used to have a modded PSP & with a Pandora Battery that made that easy to do, but the system was so easy to crack. I do also have a hard modded Xbox 360 Slim which is the only reason I have kept it, it was handy to have at the time. My Raspberry Pi is great though, has made it so easy to emulate old games & play them on my tv at home.

Finally caught up with The Good Place & what a perfect ending it was for the show, also I'm glad they took the decision to end it before it went on too long like a lot of shows. It is up there with my favourite shows that I've watched. Just a feel good, funny show with a great cast. Also watched The Stranger which was pretty good, certainly better than I was expecting it to be.

Hopefully finish this tonight, I'm about half way through the final dungeon. I've absolutely loved playing this again & it's pretty much everything I wanted in a remake of the first Zelda game I played & loved. I was a little worried that it wouldn't have aged well or it wasn't as good as I remembered but I certainly haven't been disappointed.

Yeah exactly that & I've ended up using Hulk all the time for exactly the same reason. I have found the game more difficult against mobs of standard enemies than against the bosses, especially the grenade guys & snipers, which is just wrong.

@OCH for me it's disappointing in nearly everything it tries to do. I do think the standout thing though is how unsatisfying the combat is, it feels hollow & there is no real weight to your attacks or special moves. There's not enough variation between character classes to make you want vary who you play with or experiment with team make ups. The progression system is pretty one dimensional with your special moves just getting more powerful but so do the normal enemies so it doesn't really feel that you have made any progress. The ISO-8 stuff again makes a bit of difference but nothing worth experimenting with during the campaign, I heard this makes more of a difference during the Infinity Tails but its not fun or deep enough to want to go through these. The story is pretty much throw away rehash of the Thanos/Infinity Stone arch & introduces new characters as you go but I don't really want to use them as I've got used to my team & been levelling them up. Basically if I want to play this sort of game I'll play Diablo III as it does everything better, deeper & feels much more satisfying & fun to play.

I'm hoping to get this finished over the weekend so i can trade it in or sell it. Have been massively disappointed but I'm near the end now so going to finish it, I have no desire to play it again though.

Mine turned up yesterday from ShopTo, only managed to have about a hour or so with it but enjoying it so far.

I'll finally get round to giving this ago tonight so will try everyone's own levels a try. I'm not the most creative so will be interesting to see how I get on with the level maker but should be fun.

Finally finished this for the first time ever. Got it 22 years ago when it first came out but never managed to get to the end despite starting it many times. Really glad that's done now, took around 27 hours & didn't really have to grind at any point. Maybe start FF IX again & might actually get to the end of that one as well.

It's ok, I wasn't planning on beating it anyway. I'll play it some more, get stuck, have a massive tantrum & then not play it again cos I'm still too shit at it.

Started this at the weekend & I've never really played a Souls game & only played Bloodbourne for about a hour so was expecting this to be tough & not really my thing but I think I'm enjoying it. I settled in easily enough until I got to the Chained Ogre, fuck him!!! Spent most my time there until I eventually beat him & wow what a feeling before getting killed pretty much straight after. Started going back a bit & exploring now I'm more confident with the combat, understand properly how the skill points work & don't feel like I'm about to die at any moment. Also had a couple of efforts at defeating the General after the Chained Ogre which I think will be a fairly straight forward fight but had to go out. Overall for a new comer to FromSoftware games I'm liking it, even though I've only just scratched the surface but I am sat at work thinking about & wanting to get home & see where I get to, so it's certainly doing something right.
