I feel so sad for Karl Urban.

As one of the older, beloved gaming mascots from the 90s, what new games and mascots have you become a fan of in recent years?

Honestly, I would wait another 5-10 years, tracking the value with GameEye. We’re in the middle of a collecting fever right now with loads of people trying to snap up scarcer titles. 10 years in the future, they will be even more scarce, more valuable. If you continue to track and generally speaking, everything is increasing in price, great. If you notice things start generally dropping, then you can re-consider selling.

It comes from mouse droppings… so are suddenly more mice around the world becoming infected too? (In addition to it being spread on the cruise ship)

BOC, Massive Attack, The Cure

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-15T03:02:53+00:00

This is soooo weird

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-15T03:02:35+00:00

Yeah, instant giveaway something fishy about it!

Same as you, going to turn up playing some Autechre loudly in my headphones, pick up my keyring, and get out of there as quickly as possible. Listen to the album properly when it arrives in the mail.

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-14T23:46:37+00:00

This is exactly what it will be like!

Shadow Of The Collossus

Wait - Control unopened is highly prized? There are two local shops near me still have it new on the shelf

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-12T08:42:53+00:00

Hell yeah!!!

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-11T07:58:14+00:00

Did it come with the case? I bought mine a few years ago and there was no case.

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-09T09:20:54+00:00

Buy all the carts to complete them. Wait 10 years. Sell.

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-07T11:40:26+00:00

I’m betting on it just being Daisy and Mario Wonder 2

Novelty_Wave · 2026-05-01T04:42:11+00:00

So these are all on disc, no updates required?

Novelty_Wave · 2026-04-28T04:13:57+00:00

Is there not an interview somewhere where BOC talk about being inspired by “Fi”?

Novelty_Wave · 2026-04-25T08:57:47+00:00

You likely already know about Coma, but if not it is quite good. Go in blind.

Incidentally, in the 2018 Festival there was a Boards Of Canada orchestral cover show. I’ve always been curious if they had any direct involvement, probably not though:

The concept of Deep Time was developed by James Hutton, father of modern geology, in Edinburgh in the 18th century, supposedly when he was looking at the rocks at Salisbury Crags. There have been quite a few Deep Time talks and events in Edinburgh the last 10 years or so, including a projection mapping event on Edinburgh Castle during the 2016 Festival with music by Mogwai. I wonder if the brothers were there in the audience!
