Hi Duder

If you're up for something more humorous and probably you've already seen Vinny play Satisfactory before, that might scratch the builder itch. Combat is present but definitely not a primary focus of the game.

I've had a tonne of fun running huge stretches of conveyor belts, being obsessive about building symmetry and remodeling my factories on the fly.

Granted it's still in early access, so if you're the type to solely focus on one game at a time you might exhaust it's content in a short time.

Regardless, keep entertained, safe and healthy this Easter/Passover/excuse for a break!

Something about games being physical, something you can hold in your hands and say that it was the product of a lot of hard work and thus made tangible, some how just feels good. I get the same feeling from buying vinyl (unstoppable hipster ahoy!)

No doubt that this feeling is more token these days with less and less inside a game case, and to expect a manual is something akin to purchasing a 'Collector's Edition'.

Also I live in Australia, so crap internet and woeful PSN speeds doesn't help my digital prospects.

And I guess now that Amazon is about to open shop in Oz finally, there will be no reason to stop buying plastic.

Finally when I die, I just want to leave behind a trove of great Sega cartridges and terrible 3DO 'games'.

Here ends my grumble.

Oh the stupid Ouya. It was born in the primordial soup of stupidity. As it crawled out of the stupid soup, with a stupidly designed controller trailing behind it (buttons stuck in and batteries inserted in baffling ways), it felt a sudden tug and then toppled over. With little effort, the stupid Ouya was felled by the weight of it's own stupidly short HDMI cable.

Unable to properly right itself, the stupid Ouya stayed there motionless until Razer's Min Tang happened upon it's cube like body. The stupid Ouya thought to itself for a moment that Min was indeed it's righteous savior, until Mr Tang reached inside its body and ripped out its soul.

I am equally as stupid for buying one of these Kickstarter editions. And so is Notch (The 85th backer).

RIP to a true company man and an interesting fellow.

Turrican 1 & 2, Shadow of the Beast (that parallax scrolling), Gods and Cannon Fodder.

Just for shits 'n' giggles, consider The Hunt for Red October (the '87 version) for Dan and Drew.

Oh Square, your short-sightedness is your calling card and your curse.
