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?

Done Crash 4's flashback tapes and can't be arsed to do anymore of it now. I was tempted to start God of War but thought if I'm looking to get a PS5 in the future, that's a game that could look and play better on that, so held off on that for now. Decided to go back to smashing people's heads in (plus some detective work) by installing Judgment, the Yakuza spin off.

Anthem was basically dead upon arrival, most likely thanks to EA.

What sort of game was this again?

Yeah, just had a look and there wasn't a lot going other than Skyward Sword being remade and Splatoon 3 in 2022. The Smash fighter was a bit meh really.

I don't mind a challenge at all, but the amount of effort required to fully complete the game is not worth the hassle. I was looking at a video on YouTube and someone had mentioned that it took a good 68 hours to fully complete. 68 hours. For a Crash platformer. That's ridiculous. I'll look to do the Flashback tapes but that's it.

I hope not. Really don't need a Wii U style launch again.

Right, almost done with Crash 4 as much as I can be. I'm not going to '100%' the game as quite frankly, the amount of effort required to do that is utter bollocks. Very good game, but I'm seeing what the general consensus online is in that the actual gameplay is very good and arguably the best one since the original trilogy, but it's so ridiculously bloated that it becomes a chore. Quoting the above as I was considering God of War next, but I may have Super Mario 3D World on Switch in a couple of weeks time. Got a fair few to look at in fairness on PS4 and Switch.

All he's missing is Nintendo now.

In all honesty, you can probably tell that I just generally don't like EA, primarily the way they bastardise certain games or series (Command and Conquer, Dead Space, Timesplitters, Sim City and Burnout being some of them) then piss on those studios by closing them afterwards or picking the corpse. It's why acquisition s like this make you fear for the studio being bought really. Unfortunately, it's just a case of wait and see now I guess.

Didn't even know he was in Australia. Great sub appearance by the big man. I'll mention @JoshBRFC and @Carnivore Chris as they loved him as well.

They have, but knowing EA they'll want to add microtransactions or lock certain racers for more money (despite being in the games regardless). Also, I'm not fully sure but I think it's only the F1 games on a yearly basis. My concern is if they start to request yearly games of everything else with EA's bastardisation process in place as well.

Resi 2 remake is very good, with the only downer I had (not gameplay wise) is that the story doesn't make much sense due to how you progress in both games (if you've played both sides, you'll know what I mean). Not that Resi games were ever known for its story telling mind. I'm tempted on Last of Us 2 (especially as I really liked the first game), but not sure whether to go for that or Doom Eternal first (after my backlog has cleared a little).

In my very few games, it was definitely @Danny. He was West Ham and still parked the bus against my Rotherham ffs.

That's cos you used to park the bus ala Mourinho whenever I played you.

You have more chance of seeing Jesus Christ in the street than EA fixing something.

Again, I can't comment for England (though I'd imagine it wouldn't be any different), but my mam has a card with a future date for the second dose towards the end of April.

I understand the wastage bit but for my scenario, I think it was all arranged via invites (like with others) as they had them at the Cardiff City Stadium. Got no issues with them having it, but was getting a tad annoyed when they were having it and my nan (nearly 90) was still waiting for hers at the time.

I did enjoy the main trio in the series tbf and am considering it next. However, after smashing people's heads into a wall or stamping on their heads for four games straight in the Yakuza series (3-6), I needed something a bit 'lighter' as such.

Finishing Crash 4 first, then have a choice of the Spyro trilogy, Ultimate MK11, God of War, Horizon, Resi 7, Alien Isolation (which I did start but never finished), Judgment and Rise of the Tomb Raider (at least). I haven't had much of a chance during the pandemic as I've still been working etc.

Yeah, I've heard Ghosts is superb. Just got a bit of a backlog at present to think of much else at present.
