When I saw the PS5 version for £17, I did think about trying it .

Dodged a bullet!

Now, there’s a rather notorious driving game that stank the joint out in the summer of 2004 that you’d think would make such a list…

I'm trying to get rid of a lot of stuff cause I'm moving, jesus, you get strawberry float all resell value for Wii and 360 games don't you?

Honestly considering charity storing a whole bunch of stuff.

Spoke to my brother and he's willingly to take some of it. The rest of it, yeah, charity store.

I expect lots of awards for Elden Ring.

[ITSMILNER]

BAFTA’s have been quite varied so far which is good to see

Lance Reddick overlooked in the In Memoriam section though. Man deserved better.

Yeah that was quite a stand out omission, it’s not like they couldn’t have had time to put his picture in the video.

Every month, 10,000 people contribute to the ipsos iris monitoring panel. By compiling this data together, the team can then spot trends and insights.

This month, our team took a look into gaming, with new data revealing that women now spend 50% longer accessing online gaming websites and apps each month compared to men.

Ipsos iris data shows that women spend an average of 10 hours and 24 minutes accessing online gaming every month, over three hours longer than the average for men, at 6 hours and 55 minutes. Women are also more likely to play games online at all, with 57% of women doing so, compared to 53% of men.

Probably those Facebolloxs games.

I'm inclined to agree, the N64 is one of my least favourite games consoles I owned, I've never been massively into Nintendo's first party titles either so most of the games I bought were 3rd party titles like Goldeneye, Diddy Kong Racing and Fighters Destiny, plus they were expensive and I utterly hated the controller.

[OrangeRKN]

Confusing quantity for quality. The N64 has a small library but the quality at the top end is undeniable. Just look at the lasting influence its best games have had on the medium.

Even today I think it has some of the best games ever in several genres.

Imagine respecting the opinion of someone who calls the PlayStation a PSX

This first 4 months of the year has been one of best spells for me for a long time (nothing original mind)

Goldeneye, Prime and Resident 4, 3 of my all time top 10 games re-released. First time I've owned them all again since 2007.

Advance Wars imminent.

Will get Dead Space as soon as it gets a bit cheaper. Also looking forward to Jedi Survivor.

I would like to know why Capcom hates money so much? They need to use the Resi IP with more game types. How about a Racoon City extraction shooter?

....the last 5 years they've prettty much been releasing a major RE game every year to critical and commercial success, I don't think they're struggling!

When they have ventured outside the mainline series in the past, its fair to say results have been mixed.

Epic has bought Aquiris, the Brazilian developer most well-known for the Horizon Chase Turbo games.

The studio will be renamed Epic Games Brazil and has been tasked to "create groundbreaking content and social experiences within Fortnite". Its existing projects and IP will "continue to operate" alongside this fresh assignment for the developer.
