Fantastic news! Also, it's well worth checking out the article on Reddit for the comments alone.

That was nearly ten years ago! Suddenly I feel that much older, also that probably means I haven't played Dig Dug in a while so it has got to be time to go back to it.

I seem to remember that at least on the 360 version - so possibly the PS3 version as well - that the award for digging every piece of dirt in a stage is glitched... I have a feeling that I attempted that one for a while, thought I'd achieved it - there was nothing left on the screen aside from the moving sprites - but alas, no award. http://www.xboxachievements.com/game/dig-dug/achievement/363-Dig.html Reading that achievement guide it seems you have to traverse the entire screen, so even after you've dug all the dirt, apparently you need to go around the outside edge of the screen counter-clockwise and clockwise and then die on that stage... it'd be best to leave just one Pooka instead of the Dragon chasing after you for obvious reasons. So if one of the trophies is that one then just beware and best of luck! : peace: Also, I've just realised these are actual PS4 versions of these arcade games so they may well have fixed the glitch... I may well buy these in the sale, I have until 12/07/16 I believe?

This in turn raises an interesting question... Once you have the full range of Eevee required for all of its evolutions, where do you get all of the elemental stones from? Is it a case of... go to store, make an in-app purchase of £3.99 per stone? :p I'm just curious, as I'm aware that you need to buy some stuff if you want to make some progress or at least that's how I assume it to be, I was just wondering how much has been locked to in-app purchases.

Yooka-Laylee socks! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/964197146/bryt-socks-20-the-ultimate-colorful-socks?ref=user_menu Some super-early bird prices still available, I went for six pairs though you will need to choose at least four different designs with that tier, still that's two pairs of limited edition Yooka-Laylee socks for... not that much at all.

Seems I already bought it last year, a great deal for anyone who doesn't have it yet though. Tesco have their two game pre-orders for £80 deal back on, you have to pay for the games in advance but still... works out cheaper than some places, I just ordered Horizon Zero Dawn and No Man's Sky, got the both of them for £64 in the end thanks to 20% staff discount this week only.

Happy Birthday @Josh64! Don't forget to make a wish for that Sonic Heroes sequel. I wish you the best of luck in tracking down AKMU while you're in Japan. :p Above all though, have fun over there, brother bear! : peace:

Sonic Heroes 2 or bust... :p I would seriously play that though. So many hopes and dreams for this one, I'm sure that both @Josh64 and @Cube in particular share in the potential hype for what could be an excellent Sonic title. A new Sonic Generations style title has been rumoured I'm sure, which would definitely make sense but personally for me, I would love a new 2D release in the series, Sonic 5 maybe? So like what was done with Sonic 4 a few years ago but with obviously better physics and more original zones. Super Sonic being playable within all of the acts is obviously a key classic element which would be great to see again, which naturally means it will need a proper Special Stage or... y'know, just copy the best one from Sonic 2 again. :wink: Or just shake up the formula again, of course it's a gamble as we could end up with something amazing like Sonic Colours or something less inspiring such as Sonic Boom; but that's like playing the slot machine in the Casino Night Zone... it's worth running the risk of triple Robotniks, if we end up with that elusive triple Jackpot then it may well just end up being a 25th Anniversary to remember for all the right reasons. : peace: Just please no Shadow the Hedgehog 2 or Sonic '16 with "realistic" physics and broken gameplay.

I ended up backing System Shock as well. Here's one for the shmup fans...

Hmm what's the deal with Gravity Rush HD Remastered? It has been out of stock on ShopTo for ages - since before E3 - I have it on backorder but I just searched online and by chance 365games had ONE copy left, so I bagged it for just under £18 - yes I know the sale price is less than a tenner on PSN for digital but... 'dat physical box - which happens to be my first order with the company as well; it's nice to have more buying options I guess. But it just struck me as odd that there seemed to be stock issues for a HD remaster which has been out for a little while now at least. Oh well, I'm glad to have finally ordered a copy, let's hope it arrives safe and sound. : peace:

I just pledged £52 towards it. Though I don't know why I didn't pledge before now... that's a really awesome book plus an excellent soundtrack CD to go with it. Ah well, it's closer to getting that lenticular cover now.
