. I suspected the no-one was really reading my magazine threads... it's cool to know that you are, Orange :wub:

Karl and Gecko sounds like a knock-off Yooka-Laylee

What does the Street Fighter poster look like?

Preezy wrote:What does the Street Fighter poster look like?

It's... "okay", Preezy. It's an A4-sized card poster with some "not-great" art of the characters alongside the Street Fighter logo. "Not-great" as in colourful but - in my eyes! - fairly weak. It may have fans, but it's not for me :-).

Pass.

TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge (PS4) - 8

Review have been up and down for this. I'm very tempted however.

Amazing

Karl and Gecko sounds like the name for a crappy podcast, He is Karl and I am Gecko and today we are going to talk about plankton..... the picture is freaky though

Cheers

Welcome to GRcade, OneSome! The issue arrives on shop shelves on Tuesday and, yeah, the new Walking Dead game looks pretty neat

.

Hahaha have to wait then

A new Rollcage? Ace. I notice that it's subtitled Grip, which makes sense given how much Gripshift on the PS3 resembled it. Obviously not as much of a coincidence as I thought.

Hey, Damian. Unfortunately it's not an official Rollcage sequel; the game is called Grip and is being developed by a team called Caged Element who have a number of the old Rolllcage development team in their ranks.

The game looks cool. The vehicles can be customised and they are perhaps heavier and more combat=focussed than in Rollcage. The release date is yet to be advised but it could be worth keeping an eye on.

Thanks for clarifying! I'm a subscriber but currently away from home following (successful) surgery on Thursday.

Scribblenauts gets an 8?

That's the highest I've seen for it, guess whoever reviewed it has never played the original games/
