It's funny you show the Spiderman pic in this article, it's probably the one game I'd appreciate 100%ing and platinuming at the same time. as it stands, I have the platinum and have done almost everything except for the trickier taskmaster challenges. If they were locked behind a final trophy I probably would've gone for them because why not get the platinum when your that close? Typically I don't go for the platinum unless I find I'm one or two away by the time im done with the game
Jez San's mission in life is to reply to each and every tweet he receives, currently in August 2019, he should reach the summer influx of tweets in 2020 by around Q4 2021. If he closes his Twitter account, he may get around to the Croc remake in the next decade.
To be fair paid cosmetics and character skins would count as MTX, the only thing that wouldn't be MTX is a substantial expansion pack of levels which can include skins if they so choose!
@Flaming_Kaiser yeah that would be sweet, with regards to your other comment, Lidl doesn't do online shopping, it's brick and mortar only. One of the few supermarkets in the UK at least, to remain so. Even then, i doubt any of the others would deliver a PS4 with your groceries. Tesco did away with their "Direct" entertainment offerings so they only sell consoles in certain stores now.
They did a ridiculous deal on Xbox one all digital before Xmas too (in the UK at least).
I wish it was still common for the previous gen to drop in price dramatically. I seem to remember the PSone being available for £50 when the PS2 was out
@mclarenrob2 haha I've heard tale of the mythical air purifier but £350 quid is a lot to spend on something without putting it through the rigorous test of extracting dust from my bedroom!
I have an inside source that tells me that the ps5 is actually over 500ft tall. They haven't announced a price because it actually costs you £750/month to rent a one bedroom apartment inside it. The "disc" drive is actually just where they eject non paying tenants with arrears.
I wish someone would also invent a device that sucks all the dust out of my bedroom so I don't have to keep dusting my consoles. This baby looks like a dust magnet, and yes I am using a HEPA filter but I can't beat the dust!
Rocko from rockos modern life and I know they're not cartoons but Kenan and Kel would be a good addition. Unfortunately though tempted, I didn't get the first one due to poor reviews!
@rockertherockgod I was nervous how LL would be without Nate but it was brilliant and had me hankering for more spin off games featuring the larger supporting cast
It's funny he says Nate and Elena are in quarantine, they are such "everyman" character types that I could so imagine them doing it like (most of) the rest of us, just sitting around and playing on that "game thingy". Hell, an Uncharted 5 (or 7 if you count GA and LL) where the first 5 chapters are literally just Nate playing through all of crash bandicoot (or maybe even warped) would be really funny or maybe it could be interspersed with segments where you play as Sam or Chloe going on adventures still. Or even my old favourite, Charlie Cutter lol though he seems more the type to stay in.
@MarcG420 Nice, I try to avoid the merch/book section for fear of filling my house up with even more stuff lol. I normally go there to buy CDs because they can be reasonably priced and blu rays when they come out because I like to choose one that has a good quality cardboard sleeve. I know that sounds a bit OCD but oh well. I guess I won't be doing that soon anyway as I doubt they will let customers handle 20 copies before choosing one due to Corona concerns.
Anyway yeah, spider man is a great game experience so it would be good to play it if you don't own it!
@MarcG420 ahh fair enough soz I read it quickly and thought you were lamenting the lack of the games availability in Canada.
Even so I think I'd personally be disappointed if the other game was spider man. It's a great game but I bought it day one (on a whim while I was in HMV - which on a side note I believe has been bought out from administration by a Canadian company Sunrise Records!) and played it already. I only just rebought ps plus in the days of play sale after a couple months lapse.
At least COD will give me 10 hours of entertainment or so with the campaign! It's exactly the sort of game I want with PS Plus, something I wouldn't normally buy but am interested in playing and can play through in about ten hours without too much time taken from my bought and paid for backlog.
Glad they announced a komplete edition. Bit strange though as I've read they have added 11 new character slots but they've only announced 3 new characters? Am I going to have to wait for a kompleter edition? hmm
I wish netherealm would make a full console fighter out of that WWE game they made for mobile. It looked really cool with all the designs but if it was a full console fighter like mortal Kombat or injustice, it would be awesome!
@Jake3103 it's unpleasant but unfortunately it's just how people are. I know there's something to be said for dirt giving a natural boost to the immune system but I still wash my hands a lot, even slyly after somebody insists on shaking my hand to greet me.
I can't change other people and in many ways it's not fair to put it on them so I just do my best to stay clean myself!
You would think that more people care about their personal hygiene but I spotted somebody waltz out the toilet the other day without washing their hands after taking a wizz!
@ShogunRok haha oh yeah and star wars. The amount of cameos and crossovers in video games could rival that television theory show theory that posits everything from st elsewhere to the flash to Luther is all set more or less in the same universe. Maybe I'd make an infographic for this shared video game universe...if I had time
Lovely jubbly, nice reference or did this just canonise soul calibur and by extension Tekken, street fighter, the rest of capcom, SNK, sega and smash Bros into the mortal Kombat mythos?

Re: Xbox Sure Did Announce a Lot of Timed Exclusives This Week
It might just be that if they didn't cough up for the timed exclusives then Sony would have and Xbox would have no third party launch games 🤷♂️

This is the only spoiler video I'll watch for TLOU2 until I eventually get around to playing both games in the next few years!
Love the song, the guy seems to enjoy it too.
I think I prefer Jeff Buckley's version to leanord Cohen's though!

Re: The Last of Us 2 Director Unsure of What's Next for Naughty Dog
Maybe that Uncharted Wii spin off @get2sammyb jokingly suggested in an article a while back 😂
Or maybe just an Uncharted spin off featuring our loveable Englishman Charlie Cutter! (And the rest of the supporting cast, of course!)

Re: June 2020 PS Plus Game Is Available to Download Now on PS4
@TrueAssassin86x it's not impossible, black ops 3 was a 3rd bonus ps plus game one month last year
@MarcG420 mine was like that yesterday in the UK, but it seems to have shown up in the ps plus section today next to last month's offerings
Re: Marvel's Iron Man VR Suits Up with PSVR Hardware Bundles
Yeah that's about the price the wands go for normally so that seems like good value to get a full game along with the controllers to play it
Re: Gears of War Creator Is '99% Sure' PS3 Version Is Fake

Sounds good, hopefully they announce a komplete edition at the same time, been waiting to pick this up!

Well done everyone!
Re: Classic Grand Theft Auto Games Rated for Release on, Er, PS3
Both of these plus the two London expansions would be an awesome re release on any console, especially it they ported the PC versions.
I actually prefer this top down 2d GTA and find it more difficult to get into the 3d ones
Re: WWE 2K Battlegrounds Is a Light-Hearted Take on Wrestling, Coming This Year

Maybe code masters could use this time to make a new micro machines game for us all...but a good one like turbo tournament or V3 or v4
Re: Rumour: Tales from the Borderlands 2 Teased, Redux Version of Original Game Planned
