Resogun!

Although I'm not sure if Resogun is worth spending £250...

I rang my local London superstore and they don't have it. I'm really wanting some Nintendo action and wish I got that 3 game bundle before Christmas. I suspect a revised model will come out this year but am not sure I can wait so looking for a deal.

Thats a gutter...just to clarify the store I saw this in was Merthyr Tydfil in South Wales. The POS stickers did look a bit cobbled together which made me think that this was possibly just a store clearance rather than a National thing.

Grim Fandango and Day of the Tentacle aren't exclusive. I'm pretty sure No Man's Sky is timed exclusive as well. Also, how can you list PS4 exclusives and not mention Bloodborne!

Probably dropped off the "looking forward to" list based on the alpha feedback. :cry:

Then there's The Order.

£250 to play Resogun and hope that Uncharted 4 isn't awful? Stick it in a 5%-interest bank account and have another look in 2016! :P

Oh god, not that Eurogamer article again. :fp: There is plenty of stuff coming out this year on PS4 and there is some good stuff available for it right now. I've enjoyed Driveclub, Last of Us, Infamous and smaller games like Velcoty 2x, Resogun, etc as well as all the usual 3rd party stuff.

This thread is good for seeing what is coming up this year http://grcade.co.uk/t:release-schedule-multiformat-thread--ot?f=2

If you mostly play games on PC then maybe it's not worth it right now unless you wanna play the current exclusives.

Thoroughly recommend to all who love Zelda, however hold off reading the sections on games you haven't completed yet.

Yes, it's Hyrule Historia for £10.99!

Such a fun book to flick through. The most excellent thing is all the little annotations on the drawings are hand rewritten in English from Japanese. You can really see the immense amount of care and detail that goes into designing each game. And there's some behind the scenes stuff, but don't expect much of that. Just generally a fulfilling read and not a mere coffee table book.

Free delivery over 10 quid I assume so a no brainer really.

Just finished a playthrough of Skyward Sword with my flatmate today, so in a Zelda mood. Snapped that book up.
