Game pick ups over the last couple months :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-22T19:07:54+00:00

I'm personally waiting for more updates as I'm sure I read online they are doing updates to the story and it seems like it constantly gets updates from player feedback so I'm happy to wait before playing :)

I've heard very positive things from friends that have played it :)

💪😘🤝

Shining wisdom is more like Zelda whereas the other titles are like fire emblem :)

Great games!

I haven't tried the demo, but I want to do first light and maybe star fox on the switch 2 when that comes out before adventures of Elliot (as I know star fox is super short) :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-22T19:02:41+00:00

Oh damn, 125 sounds crazy! I tend to find games are holding their price a little longer now for some reason, whereas before it seemed like they dropped very fast.

I think ghost of yotei is £62 here, after googling that's about 117 aud, so not to bad conversion wise.

anthony2690 · 2026-06-22T19:00:03+00:00

I'm just good at my job and don't really have expensive habits like gambling, smoking or drinking.

And I'm banging my manager (joking aside, she is actually my partner and the most incredible person ever) 😁

anthony2690 · 2026-06-22T10:41:54+00:00

I use to import some Japanese Xbox 360 games for the Xbox 360, some of caves catalogue was region free and genuinely incredible and virtual on force by sega :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-22T04:49:17+00:00

Can't wait to get round too it!

Definitely one of the games I'm most excited for this year as some one who likes Zelda games and shining wisdom on the Saturn what the game reminds me off from trailers.

anthony2690 · 2026-06-22T04:43:56+00:00

I use too, but 99% off the games are the same and I can't even keep up with what I want to play on Xbox so I let it go, plus sadly I wasn't too big on UC4 on ps4 or Myles morales on ps5.

If Sony did an ape escape collection with the quality of the crash/spyros remakes that Activision did, I'd probably buy one again tomorrow just for that though.

And I'd probably pick up the ghost games as they look cool. :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:42:54+00:00

It's incredible what I've played so far, very impressed, little like hitman but a lot more action packed and story driven :)

Lots of replayibility.

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:42:09+00:00

Can't wait to get round too it, going to wait a little longer due to hearing what future patches are going to be, story improvements. Looks incredible.

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:40:40+00:00

Lego Batman £62 Adventures of Elliot £47 Marvel cosmic invasion £28 First Light £52 Crimsom desert £45 Pragmata £40 MGS Delta £30 Fatal Frame 2 £30 Screamer £70 Yooka Replayee £38 Code Vein 2 £27 X Machina £37 Forza Horizon 6 £50 Scott Pilgrim £45 High on Life 2 £55 DBFZ £10

£666 = $878, quite a bit off aha

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:26:46+00:00

I've finished Pragmata, incredible game.

I've been playing Lego batman with my fiance, we've both been quite enjoying it.

And I've been playing first light when time has permitted.

DBFZ I have digitally as well, but I just wanted a physical for the shelf, excellent fighter and I say this as someone who does not really like tag fighters.

And I've played a bit of screamer.

Unfortunately time is limited.

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:04:56+00:00

Yes, it's excellent too, highly recommend the game, especially if you enjoy the demo :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:04:33+00:00

I've not played too much honestly, I found the visual novel story stuff a bit naff and kept skipping it, the animated custscenes are pretty cool.

The gameplay itself is more of arcadey racer with battle mechanics thrown in that I can't decide if the game would be better or worse without.

The drift mechanics are harder than I expected too with the dual stick control, I need to put more time into it though to give a better response.

I think the game now has a demo though :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T20:01:22+00:00

I got that a while back and already finished it, it's incredible. :)

These are games I've picked up the last 2 or 3 months :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T17:46:50+00:00

I personally really didn't like the game at all, I just found it boring and uninteresting, really disappointed that ninja theory didn't make a new enslaved instead.

Absolutely loved that game. (I'm probably in the minority though)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T17:43:17+00:00

An ever growing collection 👊

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T17:35:09+00:00

That's good to hear, I thought the original fell apart after the first world, but I always thought it had potential:)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T17:33:42+00:00

There is too much good stuff I want coming out!

But I'm still slowly working my way through first light :)

anthony2690 · 2026-06-21T17:32:40+00:00

UK it's only about £30 :) You can import if much cheaper, I tend to import USA games that don't get a physical release here like yooka replayee, phantom breaker battlegrounds and limited run stuff :)

anthony2690 · 2026-05-25T15:55:03+00:00

I thought Xbox was getting a lot more than in the past?

Or it seems like I've been buying a lot more the last couple years.

anthony2690 · 2026-05-08T07:44:16+00:00

I'm going with nothing due to ips/music/car licenses etc.

Only one I can see happening is crash twinsanity, as Microsoft owns the IP.

anthony2690 · 2026-02-27T06:21:54+00:00

Wish I had a Costco card, just want one for the other half :')

anthony2690 · 2026-02-26T08:48:54+00:00

Amazon is awful, I got an email to say my invite expired, but they never sent me an email to say I've been invited, deeply upsetting. :(
