S.C.G

Thanks for the games tonight, cycling through the magical mystery menu and ending up with so many hilarious moments from when things went just right and especially when they didn't as well... I lost count of how many times I... ended my run prematurely but, it was still worth it.

Phew!

Cool, I can join for about an hour and a half for some Dragon Quest's "Hero" based shenanigans.

While I did buy the game before any microtransactions were present, I really don't like the idea of them being in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled and I don't know why I thought that somehow this game would be the one recent Activision published title that wouldn't have them. I'm still going to keep it, more as a grim reminder... I mean, the game itself is still good and I won't be buying anything extra in it but then I'm not the target for these microtransactions. I could review the game though, I think now that this has happened after the majority of outlets have reviewed the game, this could be a good time to write a review based on how the game is in its current state, as that would be more accurate and people deserve to know... so I might just do that. After I finish a review of another certain mascot kart racing game which has kept all of its content in-game at the very least of course.

A nice video from Madlittlepixel comparing the GBA consolizer to the Game Boy Interface over HDMI. This just further reminds me that I need to get my GC set up with the Game Boy Interface either over component or HDMI. What's worse is that I have all the stuff needed to get it all running, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Last Gamer is back... at 11PM tonight. Looking forward to this.

Sega Lord X hitting the nail on the head when it comes to Sega Ages as all that is needed now are some obscure arcade titles to really boost the profile. I know it all takes time, and licensing can be an issue when it comes to sponsporships which no longer exist but it's definitely possible.

I've only played up until the part where you first get to the monastery but when the first battle was taking place, it did remind me of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance on the GameCube. That's not a bad thing though, I still think that Path of Radiance looks really nice, especially over component or HDMI. Anyway, I can't wait to get back to playing Fire Emblem: Three Houses, hopefully I'll play some more of it after Smash... and Mario Kart.

So, about those Doom ports. It looks like Doom 3 is the better handled port out of all of them, which I'm not too surprised at. Maybe they can patch Doom and Doom II to fix some of their issues? I'm not too hopeful.

I think it's time to gather up any remaining Rockstar published games I happen to have left in my collection and just get rid of them. They won't get any more money from me in the future and I never really, truly valued their games in the first place. They're just another games company that really aren't worth wasting any more of my time or money on.

Up on the front page. Good to see another potentially decent title coming to the Switch.

Well, this thread sure is quiet... must be the time of day. Anyway, here's N-Europe's Roundup of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate - Mr. Sakurai Presents "Hero" The usual press release and trailer... which I'm going to get around to watching myself, right now!

Well erm let's see... Yep I need it.

Wait... so what you're saying is, if I were to scan in all one hundred amiibo figures I probably have, right now as I've just arrive at the Monastery then I'll get items from each of them, every day that I play the game and I won't have to rescan a single figure? Well, I know what I'm doing for the rest of the evening then.

Oh cool, well I just gathered up... eleven Fire Emblem amiibo (I think that's all of them released so far?) but I can scan as many amiibo as I want per day? This is going to turn into Breath of the Wild all over again isn't it? With treasure chests dropping out of the sky and littering the land...

So, for every Fire Emblem amiibo you have, you can scan them all once per day in game to get in-game rewards? *goes off to raid box full of amiibo for any character holding a sword, shield, axe, bow or book*

Up on the front page. We'll be sure to report on the event as soon as we can after it finishes.

I'd say so. I started playing some of it last night, it explains all the mechanics in an easy enough to understand manner and there's different dificulties if you don't want permadeath. Of course I'm playing it on Hard and Classic mode though, so if a misake is made, you can bet I'll be restarting the entire map each time. I think you might like it though and now is as good a time as any to get into Fire Emblem.

Oh no, and I just dropped £20 on it. It's OK, I have a feeling that I will enjoy it as I do enjoy games with loot in them. Not so much the modern kind like looter-shooters but what I mean is, I put thousands of hours into Phantasy Star Online years ago and I enjoyed that a lot. So long as the gameplay is engaging then it should be fine, plus it sounds like the game is aesthetically pleasing at least, hopefully it'll prove worth playing for ten hours or so.

Arlo, you've made a very good point. #RemasterThousandYearDoor Let's make it happen!

I picked Moonlighter up for £20 new in the end, the price was slightly lower for a short while but it has started creeping up again, so I thought it best to get a new copy while I can.

It's the weekend of Easy Allies - Aasy Livin' which can mean only one thing... It's time for Ian and Don Hit the Beach With A Vengeance

No Contest on a Fire Emblem stage and I was doing pretty well as Link too... I'm going to count that as a sign that it's time for Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Thanks for the games though!

Ah, go on then... I'll join you for a bit.
