Suddenly Pokemon is more interesting to me. *goes to find her horse crop*

They hurt!

Anyone got Just Cause 3 on the PS4?

I'm kind of tempted as its £32.00 on Amazon, but I still have bad memories of the exceptionally wonky vehicle physics in the first one (drive tank at top speed into a moped. Moped wobbles and drives off, tank goes flying and lands upside down in a tree)

I kind of want to get it just because of all the funny shenanigans I see the Outside XBox crew get into with it, like ramping a tank off a "sky fortress" and jumping out at the last second.

Achievement grinding on saint's row 3 last night, realised not going to be able to get them all cause you can't multiplayer anymore, or upload your character
damn you THQ.

That's annoying. The only game I ever fancied getting all the achievements on, you had to have played in the beta. And I didn't.

[Psychosplodge]

I mean I don't achievement grind a lot. But occasionally when they seem reasonably doable I'll have a go. I mean I had half the TF2 ones, then they keep releasing new ones...

Still greatly enjoying Freeblade.

Up to level 33 as a Knight, and about three chapters to go. Whilst you can very much pay2win, it's by no means necessary - everything can instead be achieved by grinding in the game. As the levels themselves are short, that's not the chore it sounds.

Though I have to admit I did make a £14.99 purchase of Gold. Given I've been enjoying the game and playing it loads, seemed a fair price - and that gold did make things a bit easier!

If you've got a suitable platform for it, definitely give it a bash

Sniper Elite 4 announced yesterday, coming this year. very excited.

looking like a good year for gaming really, Earth Defense Force earlier, Twilight Princess HD just come out, Dark Souls 3 soon, The Division looks promising, XCOM 2, Uncharted 4, Fire Emblem, Star Fox Zero... I am somewhat curious about Farcry Primal too

[Psychosplodge]

Interesting to watch both the cynical brit's, and the other cynical brit's takes on xcom2. TB seemed to like it. Yahtzee seemed to think it a lazy cash in on the first one. At least that was my impressions from their videos.

Star fox zero? please tell me its a wii u game and back in an arwing?

I did discover mass effect 3 is on the wii u for about £8 new the other day, so I might get to play the third installment afterall. Won't be the same without my PC shepard though but oh well.

[Kirsten]

Star fox zero? please tell me its a wii u game and back in an arwing?

yes and yes

[Psychosplodge]

you can't see it, but I'm doing a happy dance right now.

It's a good job I now work mostly alone.
