I've tried to curb that a tiny bit. Not done too well mind. For me, I'm coming close to finishing a good run through of Judgment. Have almost completed the main story and side cases/stories, but I will say that it's a fair bit harder in places than the main Yakuza games. Have lost a few times over the game as the amount of energy certain enemies can take off you is huge.

Haven't played Rise of the Tomb Raider (the one before it), so haven't played Shadow either. Heard it's good but not on par with the others.

It won't best Football Manager at all, but just good to see something else on the market. I remember in the late 90's at least, you had Premier Manager, Ultimate Soccer Manager and LMA Manager, as well as Championship Manager (the original name before it became Football Manager). Now, you're lucky to find anything worthwhile outside of Football Manager.

For the Football Manager fans on this forum (such as @LFCMike, @Mpache, @Pyfish, @RandoEFC, @Tommy, @Dan and @nudge), a new challenger has come onto the pitch. THQ Nordic has announced We Are Football, to be released on PC on 10th June. Supposedly a more par backed football management game, where the developers have said a season can be done in two hours. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2021-03-27-thq-nordic-takes-on-football-manager-with-its-own-football-management-sim Probably not going to make Sports Interactive shit itself, but would be good to have some competition again.

Forgot about this. Got rid of my copy a while ago.

I did last time, bitch.

I had it but never got round to playing it.

In news that'll surprise absolutely no one, Bobby Kotick (Activision's CEO) is poised to earn millions of dollars in bonuses, but will layoff staff in Europe (mainly the publishing side) as 'people prefer to be wallet raped by buying digitally more'. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2021-03-20-as-activision-blizzard-boss-bobby-kotick-is-poised-to-earn-a-bonus-worth-millions-of-dollars-staff-brace-themselves-for-layoffs-across-europe Probably the most insulting part when reading that is when they laid off staff in the US, they were given a $200 gift card to Battle.net as part of the severance package. Cheeky cunts.

Was hoping you'd get a large bag of rice. Such a shame.

Haven't played any of them to some point since the third one (Connor was a whiney cock). Dabbled in Black Flag a tiny bit but that's it. Haven't bothered with any of the others after that. Think part of the reason I haven't carried on is because each one (at least at that point) followed on from each other. That and as you mentioned, they started to get repetitive. The Paris one I think is Unity, with the London one being Syndicate.

I'm way behind in the Assassins Creed series now. May pick it back up at some point, but not sure when.

Barely played Rocket League much. Had it as part of PS Plus but never really got round to playing it.

So basically like the other two?

Interesting that they're leaning on the past Konami games rather than the more recent (and shitter) versions. The fact that the publisher is Dotemu helps, as they were responsible for Streets of Rage 4 being published, as well as the Wonder Boy remake.

I don't unfortunately (never bother with anything Twatter related, though this sounds more like an app). I'd be tempted but I'm not sure whether to just hold on or not. I have a fair bit saved gift cards wise on Amazon and have a few PS4 games to play on as well (though I'm aware they run better on PS5), so not too desparate yet.

Nicely done. Just checked for a laugh and I'm stuck in a waiting room. Also, I misread your message as I bagged one on Very and thought you were on one of your wind ups again.

I'm a little out of the way as where it took place is nearby Treorchy. My mate and his missus however, are the other side of Treorchy, so this is close for them.

I wasn't too fussed to begin with as I felt a bit stung by the PS4 when I first got that (there were basically no real good games on it for some time and it wasn't backwards compatible). However, as it can run PS4 games via backwards compatibility and the general strong reception it has (as well as the Xbox Series), I'm more tempted now than I was to begin with.

Nope. Don't bother with Twatter really. What did they put up?

That'll be the mixture of scalpers and lucky sods for you.

Yeah, struggling to see anywhere having it in stock thanks to the scalping wankers. I did read that there should be major restock throughout March and hopefully continue for a bit more. Here's hoping. Unfortunately, I'll be looking at Amazon only as I have a decent amount of gift cards given to me and have a bit built up as a result.

Cheers both and Mel. I'll give it a thought before the offer ends on 8th March.

Cheers for the responses. I only ask as I saw that EA Play is available on the PS Store and while I'm not generally interested in it overall, there's an introductory month offer of 79p and Fallen Order is one of the games. Could be tempted by that just to give Fallen Order a go.

A quick question for @nudge and I think @Dr. Gonzo and @Mel81x as well. How long did it take you to finish Star Wars Jedi:Fallen Order in general?
