hopefully they will bring out a Pokemon bundle for the 2017 holiday season, Zelda and Mario will already be out so it will hopefully be tempting for a lot of on-the-fencers.

I really need to start using prime music - may as well get my money's worth.

phew, as long as the penises are still in there, I'm not complaining.

I think sub £200 is a tempting price for a new console, hopefully that will get people interested and it's probably an easy upsell to the premium. I felt the price differential for Wii U was fair so hopefully it will for the switch too once the contents are announced. Got to assume the skeleton pad is in there, at least in the premium as you'd struggle to call it a home console without that.

Many games on itch.io, including Gone Home are free this weekend (or more accurately, pay what you want with all proceeds going to Lambda Legal)

I have codes for Broken Age, Massive Chalice and Grim Fandango Remastered if anyone wants them.

I always feel bad that I'm not joining in... But I'm not joining in.

at least you now have legal recreational marijuana to take the edge off.

It was stunning as you'd expect, but I think I need a wuss edition without all the death and peril.

traitor!

I'm playing that at the moment, enjoying it but not paying enough attention to see if there's any knack to getting different cats to leave mementos. I've never installed facebook messenger. I used to have the FB app when it had messaging built in, but it crashed all the time and was a massive install, so when they hived off messenger I just uninstalled it. Annoying thing is you used to be able to see your messages on the mobile website, but now you can't do that and have to go to the desktop version - really a faff but at this point I'm not changing my mind. Luckily I don't have enough friends that it's too much of a bother.

I'd like to use it but I tried once before to get people away from whatsapp, and failed miserably so not sure I can be bothered to try again. Really wish I didn't have to use whatsapp

Nintendo had a £5 voucher for halloween, plus when you get it from Nintendo direct, it comes with the stickers and keyring I'll never use. Also, I've never bought directly from them before so wanted to try that.

Moon was really good, though I don't think really it gets to horror is certainly in that sort of area. Cube was good as well (though I saw it many years ago so the memories are hazy). I think you could call that sci fi horror.

what's Class? I've not heard of it.

I'd recommend the novel of "let the right one in" if anyone is interested in that sort of thing.

how was the VR for a whole game rather than just an "experience"?

It's just a deal you can use on games if you want, but anything sold by amazon if you don't. Buy a £30 gift card (which you can apply to your own account), and Amazon will apply £7 credit to your account (to be used by mid January) so you're getting the 20% more free. Link.

that's the video without the 2m18s timestamp

So what do you guys think of GAME charging people for a go on their demo PSVR units (£5 for 10 minutes): fair enough or cheeky bastards?

Ah, that makes sense. But it better hadn't be that dear. I'm hoping £300 for the bundle version.

Why'd you need them to price the Switch before you sell the Wii U? Surely the price you can get for the Wii U will only go down from this point so the sooner you sell the better

Guess Link may not be the only character people complain isn't voiced soon. Most games I wouldn't care if they used a sat nav style voice synthesiser, tbh. I just want to know what I have to do next and it wouldn't be worse than half the acting jobs out there.

I've been playing watch dogs on my XO. Gone a bit mad on the side missions, but still on the first act. Really struggling with the convoys though - going to leave those for now .Think it'll help the main story tha I've connected all the areas to ctOS now, so I think that at least was worth doing first. Plus it means I have most of the skill upgrades already. Enjoying the game so far, and not minding the similarity to Assassin's Creed at all. Looking forward to the sequel now. Been streaming it to my laptop with the xbox app. Mostly it's worked well (once I realised it wasn't the smartglass app you're meant to use) but has stuttered sometimes resulting in a few crashes and civillian casualties I hadn't intended. So It's been good for the side missions, but I wouldn't do it for the story ones.
