"but people who watch this and expect to play Concord afterwards are going to be left confused and disappointed."

All three of them?

Pity it doesn't include Welltris - loved that on the Amstrad 6128.

In the UK, just redeemed points for £10.

I'm finding it hard to get overly exercised by the early access idiot tax...

My review of Outright Games is that they are all a bit crap.

It's not sold out, you can literally pre-order one on Playstation Direct right now.

@SoulReaper-72 Just got back in and managed to get one (at 11.26). Phew!

Still showing as in stock, got it in my basket and trying to pay but get a repeated 'something went wrong' message.

EDIT: and now kicked out after 10 minutes since my queue number has expired. Amazon it is in a couple of weeks.

These chuds really are snowflakes, aren't they?

Since when did 'lessons' become 'learnings'? (bleurgh).

It's an AC game, it'll sell like gangbusters come what may.

Green light it, then cancel it - just to mess with Garvin's head.

If they kill off Merrin I swear I'll do time.

"We’ve had a lot of fun sprinting between London Euston and Milton Keynes in this rapid rail, and while we’ve encountered very familiar bugs – like signalling issues which have prevented us from completing timetables"

Doesn't this just make it more immersive and true to life?

What a ***** thing to say.

Harry Potter and Rowling, ew.

The 90s are now fodder for nostalgia, I'm officially old

(all over this one like a rash, natch).

Don't worry, John - at least we can now say that your character has been in a decent game.

You've got to make me an offer
That cannot be ignored

Harry Potter 🤮

Looks supremely janky with tedious base-building - and it's an MMO, eww.

I'm old enough to remember when they said the same thing after Syndicate.

Played it, completed it, loved it. Really interesting fantasy 18th Century setting, combat deeper than it looks, nice turns from the actors playing Nor and Enki, and hey, there might be a bit of jank, but when it's got this sort of character and heart, and is such good old fashioned fun, who cares?

Surprisingly moving ending, too. Although that last boss can GRTF.

Looks great - if it has even half the style of those trailers it'll be terrific.

I thought Deacon St John (come on, lads) was one of the worst characters in modern gaming, all that chuntering away to himself was particularly off-putting.

Still not as bad as Aiden Pearce, however.

@dellyrascal Nonce defenders are the absolute weirdest.

Hiding in plain sight. What a nonce.

"I'm getting the word ... nonce."

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture - but with guns. I'm in!

Good, perhaps it will cause a rethink.

Not surprised, this looked dire from the word go.

Bang average, worth a playthrough on Plus but not worth paying any money for.

A new Dune game: yes, amazing!

It's a survival MMO: sad trombone noise

Only Mystic Meg could ever have predicted this.

You couldn't pay me enough to play this.

The big question is: what's going to go to the subscription services first this year, Skull & Bones or Suicide Squad?

@IntrepidWombat in my union our recent successful strike action has restored £10k a year to my pension when I retire. Worth every penny of my subs and will lead to plenty more PlayStation time.

And whatever jurisdiction you're in, when you run into trouble or layoffs come, not being a member leaves you much more vulnerable. Besides, I believe in collective power of workers rather than individualism.

If you're a worker, join a union.

What will end up on PS Plus/Game Pass first - Skull and Bones or Suicide Squad. Place your bets now!

'Best Co-op shooter' - a competition in the same way that six bald men fighting over a comb is a competition.

Not for me, Clive.

Yet another reason not to buy this, especially at launch when it's incomplete.

These people have the vote!

@sRPlay1989 because I played the alpha, and it's just a bang-average looters shooter, with a decent story.

Hopefully he'll be on a boat at some point in the game.

I played the alpa - the story was interesting, but the gameplay was the worst kind of floaty, generic looter-shooter nonsense. If I wanted a gear system that complicated I'd open an Excel spreadsheet. I might have a go when it gets onto a subscription service, but giving WB Games money for this only encourages them.

This will be on Game Pass and Playstation Plus by November.

@EfYI Been playing video games for nearly 40 years, have a PhD. Bit of a strange question, but there you go.

Days Gone is by no means a bad game - it's just alright and has its occasional moment, but is let down by profoundly bad character writing and generic open world gameplay. Plus any game with forced insta-fail stealth sections can just get stuffed.

'Masterpiece' implies to me an era-defining game, one of the best of all time, whereas I find Days Gone instantly forgettable.

Days Gone a 'masterpiece'? Those are some very low standards.

Deacon St John is modern gaming's second most unbearable character (looking at you, Aiden Pearce).

@EfYI These pathetic weirdos cannot be for real.
