I'd just like some of the big guys to maybe announce some new IPs. I realise with the last 12 months, development has been, and will probably continue to be, tough for most studios; so any business ...

@atheistpreacher: Glad you got to finish it (or have the possibility to fail on your own terms) finally. I found out about the quitting situation watching a speedrunner this weekend who was suggestin...

That's madness, I had a moment during the run through it where the mansion target just locked into a loop that made me very worried that he wouldn't touch the carefully poisoned drink out for him. Tha...

@abbygn: No worries - glad you scratched the "what was that game" itch!

@abbygn: The closest game I can think that matches that is Creatures - my sister played hours of is on the PC but there was a PS1 release of it too. Might be way off but I hope this helps.

I think I lean more towards a new Horizon just due to where I'm at with racing games - I'd prefer to dip into a few regularly than mainline one. And I know myself too well, the huge garage sim racer...

Yeah, I'm not that into the cosmetics and I'm not the biggest fan of escalations, still have lots from the first two games I've not tried yet, so left the deluxe version on the shelf. As cool as the...

@csl316: Bloody hell, that's some mean guitar work there good sir! I did a by numbers synthwave version (that I would have to improve before sharing after seeing your handiwork) - it's a great soundt...

Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge and Wipeout for me.

I think I come from the opposite place you do, I rarely play much in the way of 'proper' stealth games - having tried some MGS, Splinter Cell and Styx games in the past I've tended to find my own exp...

I think too many games are adapted for the wrong reasons - cinematic format/action packed/very popular - rather than some of the games where the concept or characters would make for something entertai...

40:60 - We get a lot of fresh groceries but we always make food in large batches, emptying a good chunk of the fridge so we have leftovers to freeze plus batches of soup and stock fill out the freeze...

@wollywoo: Yeah, I lost so much time to Advance Wars - I seem to recall sitting with it under my desk on my lap after my bus ride to work just sneaking one last mission before getting on with anything...

Thank you guys! Very happy here - lockdown antidote!

I found the barrier of getting used to the interface quite high, but once it clicked it's an easy thing to follow. I am a fairly okay guitarist so dived in a bit too deep at first and found it way t...

Nice write up, thanks for this. I have had this game in my unplayed pile for ages; as a fan of the XCOM reboot, and Westerns too, I've been close to starting so many times, now I might still keep it...

@meierthered: yeah, they can be tough to centre in on, especially if it's just a glimpse of a memory. I too have spent a long time trawling amiga wikis to try and match a brain picture to a game. Good...

@meierthered: The one that jumps out as a most likely candidate in my head is Turrican 1 or 2. But there were quite a few games on the Amiga that fit the 2D robot shooter vibe. Maybe have a look thr...

@nickm said:Are they doing a quick look of Hitman 3 or are the GOTY podcasts treated like a full days work?Given how much time they gave the other games once GOTY is done I'm sure there's going to be...
