^This. I always say about PewDiePie that I’m not a fan of his YouTube persona but he seems like he might be a nice enough guy to hang out and play video games with in real life (before taking into account recent developments). And I think basically the same about Jim Sterling - not a huge fan of his YouTube persona…

Yes, thank you, I know the data is on the disc - I didn’t think they were on Blu-Rays for nothing. But after installation the disc is just there for verification as all data is installed to hard drive.

Oh yeah, sorry, wasn’t thinking properly. I recently got an Xbox One and PS4 so have just gotten used to buying games on disc that only use the disc for verification as they still require full installations to internal storage, so I forgot about the fact that obviously the Switch games can just run from their…

Last night I dreamed that I went shopping at night at a large retail park. The car park wasn’t lit so I found my car by pressing the unlock button on my key fob and looking for the flashing lights/hearing the doors unlock. I got in and drove away, thinking I could hear the car making a strange, unfamiliar noise as I…

Do you actually have any 3DS games? Because I do and the cases are neither terrible nor flimsy. I never considered that the holes were there to save plastic - I thought it was so that you could see bits of the artwork behind them, making it a bit more colourful inside - but if that’s the case, then I’m both glad that…

So are they going to write something like ‘Requires additional storage’ on the box to let people know? Or it would be nice if they included an SD card with the game, but I doubt they would be generous enough to include one that’s bigger than necessary so you’d just end up having to buy one anyway.

You know, I came down here to say I don’t want any damn remakes - if they’re too close to the originals they’re pointless; if they’re too far removed they might as well be a sequel/spin-off/whole new game. But now that you’ve mentioned it, I really liked the DS remakes - started with III because it was the first…

I do not for a minute believe that the average American citizen has a deep cultural and political, or even personal loathing and hatred for their Russian counterpart and vice versa.

First thought on reading the title - ‘There are no ‘worst’ Zelda games! Well, unless you count the CDI ones, so you could easily just put those at the bottom of the list.’

Yeah, it’s weird (but classic Nintendo) how coy they’re being about it. I’ve read interviews with Tatsumi Kimishima and Shinya Takahashi recently and, whenever a question about something serious is asked, like something that might make or break this as a purchase for someone, like what exactly the online subscription…

That’s probably going to happen with most Wii U games, considering none of them sold really well because the console didn’t sell well. We’re already getting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - stand by for Super Mario 3D World Deluxe, New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, Splatoon Deluxe, Pikmin 3 Deluxe...

The Scout Cavalry is not an automatic scout unit, it’s just a light cavalry unit that’s ideal for scouting because of its speed. There was an equivalent unit in the first game, just called a Scout. Neither are autonomous; there is no autonomous scouting in either game. I really don’t know where you’ve got that idea…

I’ve never heard anyone say that before and, honestly, having replayed them both in recent years, I can’t agree. AoE II did everything a good sequel should do - kept the basics intact but improved the graphics (to a point where they still look fine 17 years later), fixed a host of issues and added a long list of new…

Yeah, I thought that for a second too! Like it was some crappy mobile or browser knock off. But the game’s name is Age of Empires II: Age of Kings, so Age of Kings is the subtitle/name of the original campaign - so saying Age of Kings is one of the best isometric games kind of ignores the fact that the expansion pack,…

“If Putin likes Donald Trump, guess what folks? That’s an asset, not a liability.”
And if Mussolini likes Hitler, guess what folks? That’s an asset, not a liability.

YOU SERIOUSLY LISTED AGE OF EMPIRES II AS JUST ‘AGE OF KINGS’?

Out of interest, what was your first Final Fantasy? I think that makes a difference when it comes to people’s favourites, and that’s the reason a lot of people say it’s VII, because that was the first FF game for a lot of people, due to it being released at a time when gaming was becoming much more mainstream, on a…
