Could be worse, you could have backed it on Kickstarter to the tune of whatever it was (maybe £30, maybe £40), had to pay a bunch of customs fees on arrival (I think around £20) and still have it sealed on the shelf. :fp:

What happened with the DLC they promised backers as well? Did that ever come out?

I have no idea if the DLC came out to be honest, I'd forgotten about that!

Yeah, they never added those Luka First and Second Mission (which I believe was going to be a 2D side scroller) goals. They got as far as the Time Attack mode as far as I know.

A terrible campaign all round really :fp:

You can get Series S for 180-200 on eBay from clearance stores, and if you look online you can also get a year of game pass ultimate for around £30.

Tempting, but i'm almost certain it will be on Game Pass in the next 3 months.

Edit - also, i'm not going to Slough.
