Cool, I'll do that. Thanks for the advice and giving your thoughts on the game.

@BookhouseBoy I can see that (like me) you're a big"Twin Peaks" fan - I thought that "AW2" was far more influenced by stuff like "True Detective" and David Fincher movies. Did you get that impression, too?

@BookhouseBoy Yeah, although believe it or not the Mr.Scratch doppelganger stuff originated in "Alan Wake:American Nightmare" which predated the tulpa storyline in 'TP:TR". Crazy.

@BookhouseBoy I think I read somewhere that the tulpa stuff was going to feature very heavily in "Fire Walk With Me" but I'm glad that the movie exists in its current state. It's a masterpiece.

What makes it even worse is how long the wait was

I would have given it a try if it been on disc that way i could have traded it if it turned out as bad as some reviews have said, i am now going to give it a miss.

Played a bit of Tiny Tinas Wonderland. I'm enjoying quite a bit. It is for sure still more Borderlands, but the added spells and fantasy look makes it different enough for me. Also the D&D humor, while childish at times still makes me chuckle.

I also would've liked a disc copy, not a fan of the all-digital push going on.

This is my latest purchase at £15.99 i couldn't resist, a member recommended it when i posted that i was not enjoying Robocop and its a much better game in my opinion.

It will be a sad day when they finally pull the plug on disc versions of consoles to stop people selling and trading games, how are kids supposed to find £50 - £70 for games.

@Max_Headroom My guess— the end of physical games will probably lead the industry toward an even greater bipolar (and I don’t mean the mental illness, rather just two extremes) fanbase, as far as how games are consumed. Those with means will afford to buy new games and those without will play F2P or service games that can be played for thousands of hours with only one purchase. Kids will likely be in that group they just has to play a lot of F2P. It’s already getting there now, but it will be more pronounced when physical ends.

That will be a very bad day for gaming.

In tackling my backlog, I finally started Deathloop. Pretty interesting so far though I’m very early.

@Jimmer-jammer I found my experience with Deathloop to only become more positive the more I ran it tbh. I pretty much hated it initially… disappointed that it wasn’t scratching that Dishonored itch but the more I played the better it became. And hey presto, by the time I was done, quite a few of those classic Arkane staples began to manifest… if you’re already intrigued, I think you’ll end up having a good time.

That’s good to know. I actually fell asleep while playing it but that’s less an indictment on the games quality and more on my lifestyle of burning the candle at both ends! I’m looking forward to properly getting into it! Big fan of Arkane generally.

@Jimmer-jammer Haha! I thought I was the only one who falls asleep during games. 😄 It actually doesn’t happen very often, but every now and then it does. And like you say, it’s not necessarily during a game I don’t like. Often it’s the opposite — a game I want to forego sleep to play, but my body betrays me

@Korra @Th3solution Yep! If I’m lucky, I’ll merely be stuck in a corner when I wake.

I'm playing Granblue Fantasy: Relink and enjoying it quite a bit. I was expecting it to be similar to a Tales game, but you don't travel the world, instead you return to town after finishing each story objective and accept smaller quests at a quest counter. I was disappointed at first, but the gameplay loop is pretty fun and I have Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and Persona 3 Reload to fill my massive RPG needs.

@Bentleyma Nice, waiting for my copy of Granblue to come and it looks amazing

Just rolled the credits on Tekken 8's story mode, The Dark Awakens. Mortal Kombat 9's story mode has finally been topped as my favorite in a fight game, really enjoyed it, especially the final chapter. Having a blast with this game overall. Right there with 3 and 5 as the best in the series.

@colonelkilgore Thanks for the heads up on Deathloop! I’d have likely quit early on and missed out on what has, 18 hours later, turned into a really great game. Took me like 12 hours to finally ‘get’ it but I remembered your experience with it and persevered. Really enjoying it now. Brilliantly designed game, actually.
