I have it but I’m not sure when I’ll get round to it though because I just bought MK11 too.


Awful PS2 era name.

It is bizarrely generic. I felt the same about Defence Grid: The Awakening, which turned out to be a bit of a gem.

This one has come out of nowhere a bit (I'd never heard of it before), but judging by the comments on the review and on Steam this looks like being a bit of a sleeper hit: https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/remnant-from-the-ashes-review/#comment-jump https://store.steampowered.com/app/617290/Remnant_From_th...

A nod to the classic space station sim Startopia has been announced, and it looks much as Two Point Hospital was for Theme Hospital: https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/goofy-strategy-sim-spacebase-startopia-announced-for-late-next-year/ The launch trailer is... well, it's not that it's bad , more that it's ...

Added a spoiler tag to AE's post as I know there are some people here, like MM, who are looking forward to seeing this and presumably want to go in without plot spoilers.

Recently played through all the Monkey Island games with my daughters (they mostly watching but often offering suggestions as to what we should do) and had a whale of a time. Curse is under-rated, I think... it's probably the third best of the four original games, but the first two are masterpieces ...

Also, yay, season 3 GLOW on Netflix! :o Also also, watch GLOW! :x Yusss! Season 3 is just as superb as the first two. Also finished The Boys , which was as good as others have suggested. I love the dark humour. GLOW is a cracking show, I'm going to be really peeved if it falls victim to the Netflix...

Grrr I quite like the sound of Mutant Year Zero, can it overcome my principles?

Fuck how annoying.

Easily worth a tenner mate:

Fuck EGS.

Wife went to bed early and I just fancied reading something a bit spooky before I went up

I hate this thread

Read this last night. Doug wasn't exaggerating

I must admit the review I read of it - which to be clear wasn't a negative review per se - did put me off a bit and go quickly from 'grr, curse this Epic exclusivity!' to 'meh, never mind' pretty quickly.

So if you had to choose between 5 and 9, guys, which one has the edge?

We can't have both?

I'm happy either way honestly, if there's a particular standout choice for one over the other then go with that

Anthem lead producer leaves Bioware after eight years:

"But Anthem is totally fine, you guys, it's nothing to do with that, in fact it's probably because it's too awesome that I'm leaving."

He really was batshit gaga though wasn't he?

The sad truth is that you don't have to be mad to be a horrible racist.

This was quite interesting as a random find. That's pretty interesting, particularly, for me, the part about night terrors - something I experienced quite regularly in adolescence and even to this day on rare occasions. On one such occasion during an episode, I saw something very much like the 'nig...
