I know, but after the fiasco of stock with the NES mini, surely they'd be wiser and limit to 1 per customer. It sucks that many (at the moment) will miss out due to others stocking up.

Nintendo doesn't seem to have learned a thing. They know there's a keen interest in the NES Mini, so they stop producing it instead of continuing manufacturing them. Now the SNES Mini is due in September, and it seems it could be a similar situation in terms of stock. Reading on different sources that online stores are not limiting orders to 1 per customer, so people have been snapping them up (some even getting as many as 10 pre-orders). And then they are appearing on eBay for upwards of £100. As much as i like the idea of Nintendo doing these retro consoles, i'll give it a miss.

Change is good. First impressions, looks clean and fresh. Loving the new look so far, will get used to it more. Still used to seeing the VBulletin site.

At the moment, i have these on my list to get between for the rest of the gaming calendar. Might change as it goes on, but who knows. PS4 South Park: Fractured But Whole Destiny 2 Crash Bandicoot Assassins Creed Origins Uncharted Lost Legacy Everybodys Golf Horizon DLC Sonic Mania Detroit Days Gone Far Cry 5 3DS Metroid: Return of Samus

Decided to finish Knack. I mean, this title has been sitting on my shelf for sometime so i thought i'd plow through it. Not much to say really, it looks pretty and all that. Controls were a little off at times, and sometimes the difficulty spike did strike me once or twice. But overall, not a bad game. Edit (saves a double post) Did also complete Little Nightmares just now. I enjoyed it, it's one of them games that doesn't require much thought and is simply a joy to play. Few times i slipped up, but knew what i did wrong so did it right next time and didn't slip up.

Saw this on another website, apparantly it's insane with the number of people at E3 this year due to the public being allowed access. Various people on press business are not happy. https://clips.twitch.tv/JollyWrongShingleSMOrc That's just around the Nintendo booth But anyway, back onto the matter in hand For me, the conference that stood out was Ubisoft. They showcased numerous new titles, liked the appearance from Shiggy at the start. And it ended with Beyond Good and Evil II. I was quite surprised and shocked when they revealed it, never thought i'd see the day on that one. The new Assassin's Creed looks good, Egypt looks to be a good setting for it. Next was Sony. All they had to do was show games, and they did that. Ok, maybe not as many surprises as i'd have liked. But seeing Shadow of the Colossus was just something (even though i've never played it). God of War looked amazing, and Spiderman looked interesting. Days Gone and Detroit look interesting titles too. Nintendo followed closely behind, there's not a lot that interests me with Nintendo these days. Am i growing past them, i don't know. But revealing Metroid Prime 4 and a remake of II, well they know how to draw me back. The new Mario looks interesting, yet odd. Like it's Sonic Adventure, but smoother and more fluid. Are they going Breath of the Wild with this and making it so you can go anywhere and do anything, who knows. Microsoft next. What are they thinking with the Xbox One X, for the price it would seem it's off to behind the shed to be put out of it's misery. I'm not saying Dead on Arrival, but quite a few people are not happy with the price-tag. Games-wise, if they are trying to show the power of this beast, indie games isn't the way for it. Forza is Forza, but they could have had Gears upped to 4k to show it's power. Not too fussed on Minecraft, but it's good to see it going multi-network. And behind in joint last, both EA and Bethesda. EA don't normally have anything i'm interested in, so i didn't find it appealing to me. Bethesda, it felt like they just grabbed anything just to make an appearance. Fallout VR looks interesting, and i did see on the Sony stage they are working on Skyrim VR too.

Apparantly, one game for July has been revealed accidentally as "That's You!". Basically, it's a console game requiring use of a mobile similar to many others on the market at the moment. A channel i follow on YouTube uploaded footage of them playing it, and had it revealed as a July PS+ title in the description box.

Didn't get a chance to play the original, and i have heard some great things about this game.
-
Day before Destiny 2 launches.............. Got a lot of other games between now and October, so if i do pick it up, it'll be around November/December.
-
Can't wait for more Horizon, this game was a huge surprise in terms of how great it was and a joy to play.
-
The price point for the Xbox One X (seriously, stupid name) is outside of anything i'd deem interested in. And bar a few exclusives, there wasn't a lot i was interested in. Thought the Mojang rep was high on something, seeing how excited she looked at announcing cross-platform Minecraft (that's a great idea for those whom play this game). Bethesda's felt weak, like they threw anything into the pot just to appear.

As per usual, i'll watch the Sony conference later on Tuesday.
-
Quite possibly CTR, depends on how Activision go.
-
I'll see if it's worth picking up either US/UM nearer the time/once i know more information and what's new in each game

It's handy with Netflix being able to offer certain shows for offline viewing, been able to catch-up on some shows i've been slow watching due to other commitments. Caught fully up with Orange is the New Black and Better Call Saul, now i've decided to start watching House of Cards. Only watched the first episode to see what it's like, and just from that i can tell it's going to be an interesting show.

I'm just in shock, this is yet another attack in the UK. And right on the eve of the charity concert in Manchester too, and also right after the Champions League in Cardiff.

Go for it, change can only be for the better. Especially if it makes things easier behind the scenes.

If someone could just get rid of Trump, that'll be grand.

Damn, she's normally one of the reasons i watch the Ubi conference each year.

A shake-up is needed of PS+. Vita is virtually dead outside of Japan, and the PS3 just stopped production in Japan. You look on other gaming websites, quite a few people complain that the PS4 gets a lot of indies on the PS+ offerings, but i like them as they offer games i'd never have considered playing.
-
The work that's gone into remastering these games is impressive. Was watching a video from a channel i follow, and they said themselves it feels like you are playing Crash for the first time again from how it looks and feels.

I'm happy to see Huddlesfield up in the Premier League. Saw a tweet this morning saying that supporters whom have held a season ticket from 2009 get one for the Premier League for £100
-
Had a round last night. Looks beautiful, it's great to see many people running around enjoying the game. I did ok in my first go, got a +2 overall score. Put a pre-order down

Just been checking my leave allowance for the year, i think i got too much leave to take. Might be having most of June and parts of July off like last year. During the check, i found an old manager of mine decided to add days onto the calendar i have no recollection of ever booking (i keep a separate log of days i book so i keep tabs).

Got myself a code as well, I'll give it a bash later.
