S.C.G

I should pre-order it but... It seems they will be doing what they always do with Yakuza games, Day one version = superfluous, elaborate alebiet very nice packaging. Then later they'll release the collection in a proper PS4 case, so I might just be better off waiting.

I agree, on the whole it was a good video but... I don't trust the World Health Organisation as far as I can spit. Whenever they classify something, there's always an agenda behind it. (I know... pass me a tinfoil hat if you really must) I'm not saying that Gaming Disorder doesn't exist either, it clearly does but we should still be wary of such organisations, especially the WHO. (No, not that one) It's healthy to question these things so I just wanted to say that so that there's a bit of balance here, that's all. - - - - - But what JIm says it mostly true, especially when it comes to all of these predatory companies such as EA and Activision etc, trying to normalise gambling in videogames as that's downright dangerous and irresponsible, to them though... they don't care, it's all about the money but these are exactly the type of tactics in games which could lead to certain people who are susceptible to such practices then going on to develop a "Gaming Disorder" if that's what we're now having to label it as in order to raise some awareness of what's going on. The greedy publishers are still the root of the problem but we should always keep an eye on other organisations who like to label things and people.

Can you repeat the question?

No real spoilers here but I just reached the part where you enter the Astral Plane for the first time and I found the chain jumping mechanic to be a little bit tricky as well. Again, nothing game-breaking but during that first section where you get to use it, I did miss one of the jumps, so I was glad to see that it wasn't an instant fail when that happens. Also, I found my first cat just before that part and I couldn't rescue it I guess I'll have to come back for that one with a different Legion. I'm really liking the game though, taking my time with it, I want to play more but I've just got a lot to do at the moment so I'm only managing an hour or two in the evening. I will keep at it though because I want to see this game through to the end.

I'm a moderate fan of Resident Evil. I've only completed half of the main games in the series though, despite owning the entire series across various platforms. Resident Evil Zero - Interesting prequel, I like the setting, the character system was quite unique as well for its time. Resident Evil - The original, the classic, while I don't rate the original release these days, I love the remake. Resident Evil 2 - Best in the series from a nostalgia point of view, I've played the original which I like, I've played the remake which I like, though I've never properly finished it. Resident Evil 3 Nemesis - This always felt like an alternate take on Resi 2 to me, I know Resi 3 and CV got switched around at some point, maybe that's why it feels weird to me. Resident Evil Code Veronica X - Really started to change the series up, has some weird themes and some cool setpieces, I also like the new camera system, DC ver = good. Resident Evil 4 - Do I even need to say anything about this game at this point? Played it and loved it, it is Resi but with more than a few twists. Resident Evil 5 - Good co-op game, still a Resident Evil game? Sort of... but, Wesker... "complete, global saturation" Chris punching a boulder, in a volcano... yeah. Resident Evil 6 - Yeah, good one Capcom. Resident Evil 7 - It's first-person Resi... redefining what the series is again but really borrowing a tonne of ideas from elsewhere. That's my quick and in no way doing the series any justice overview of the Resident Evil series.

*looks around* *tentatively raises hand* Yes please.

Here is the final article for our Top Ten Wii U Games. Thanks to @RedShell for the Wii-U-tiful banner/side graphics. and @Glen-i plus @Dcubed once again for the excellent write-ups. Also thanks to the N-E community for contributing, the Wii U is a console which I struggle to go back to thanks to the Switch but I'll boot it up again one day. (my contribution was making the game banners in the article and getting it uploaded) The Wii U banner is mostly cut-pasted from the Wii banner, I found an excellent Wii U Gamepad pixel art, so I used that after shrinking it down. I tried to incoporate as much Wii U as possible into the banner design, so you have the blue from the 'U' some black text/background and the Gamepad is white. Just so that both models of the Wii U are reflected in the banner really, I had a Black 32GB Wii U from day one but I know a lot of people owned the White 8GB model too. (also... there were two games which no one provided thoughts for, so I whipped up a couple of short insights for those, got to keep the article format consistency) Enjoy! And that's all folks! (you can access all of the articles on the first page of the thread but here are the mini-banners for the other articles anyway)

@Hero-of-Time is Greg the Grim Reaper from Conker's Bady Fur Day, confirmed! Anyway, I got to play an hour of Astral Chain last night and while I didn't get far enough to encounter any cats, I did get the sense that this is going to be a very special game indeed.

Calling @RedShell I've found you a new game! Assuming this is getting released outside of the Japanese eShop that is. I don't think I can put this on the main site unless it's confirmed for release over here but, here's the PR anyway... I think I'll stop looking for news to post now because nothing else is going to top that today!

Sega Lord X with a video entitled Fact or Fiction? which dispells a lot of myths related to the Sega Saturn.

On the front page. Castle Crashers Remastered coming out on the Switch eShop on September 17th 2019 I can't wait to see that deer at the start of the forest stage again, yep... immature maybe but it was amusing at the time.

Patch notes, getttt your patch notes, right here, Version 1.0.1

Happy Astral Chain launch day! Check out the special message which the Director of the game Takahisa Taura has shared on the Platinum Games blog. I thought it was really heartfelt personally and I wish every success for the game.

Up on the front page. As much as I like Rhythm games, I still have Taiko no Tatsujin to play but I'm glad this is finally getting a Western release.

Astral Chain get! I won't start playing it until later though, otherwise I know I won't get anything done.

Thanks for the games tonight everyone. Some really fantastic matches in there, a few good one on one matches with @Glen-i at the end there as well. I think that's the first time I've played as Shulk and... not done too badly. I was right though, that first match where I was playing as Samus... mostly downhill after that for me, performance-wise. But I feel like I'm improving a bit each week, so I'll try and join more regularly when I can.

Looks like Ganondorf fell out of Skyloft and met his Demise...

I guess Villager had to go back home, getting that lift back was handy!

Quite the scuffle there between Fox and the Isabelle duo at the end... ...it was like the battle of the fast and the furiest. OK, I'll stop now. I probably won't though.

Reckon you can win as Ryu then Sam? Sure-you-can!

Lucas just kept falling off the stage, well I suppose it is in space, it must have been the gravitational pull... ...it's almost as if he was... EarthBound.

I feel a bit... Ivy-sore after that round. Trust me to jump straight into the launcher at the start.

I've had my win as Samus, all downhill from here... And I was right... in the very next round, death by bees!

Zinogre hype! I should get that pre-order in now then... Yeah I've got to buy the base game again but this expansion is the size of a new game and the base game is only £8 of that value at this point. Plus I want that extra box on my shelf.
