@somnambulance Depends, if you were me those games you already have would probably last me until next year, although never stopped me buying games i have yet to play, so either way, Go For It 😂

Gears 2 done, so onto Gears 3, GREAT FUN: on the one hand should have played them years ago, on the other hand, Really Enjoying them now so no harm done 😂

@Kilamanjaro Yeah but even for them there will be a limit in the future, unless they just stop making them at some point and keep making games, which i wouldn't complain about

@Coletrain Great to know your not from the uk as butter is hard as rock here 🤣

@NeoRatt yeah moore's law ended for consoles last gen, meaning that while they can't shrink the die like they used to,they can get more improvements but at a greater cost, so future gen's will be interesting, no much better but more expensive 🤣 Unless they do something different to attract people... All i keep thinking is if someone went back a gen or two and made a mordern version of those consoles, where games are cheaper to make and take less dev time.....

@Questionable_Duck Yeah, only realise this when i watched the show, Great News, odd though, did it say pre order physicals??

@BattleMonkey 🤣 I need to learn to read, £800 well now 🤣

Also, who in the UK remembers $300 = £300 for console prices 🤣

£500 for it in the UK isn't bad at all considering the Switch 2 price, damn shame i'm skint for all eternity 🤣👍(well 4.5 years to go now)

@OldGamer999 Hell Yes it is!!

@Vipor007 Limited Run will probaly do one eventually 😂

Roll on Thursday, can't come soon enough!!

Yeah watch it live all being well 🫡

@AverageJoseph Same for me!!

Keeper and Outworlds 2 (still need to get back To Ninja Gaiden 1, beat it on original xbox but that was a hot minute ago 🤣)

@Kaloudz Not really done any grinding so maybe that's my problem 🤣

Seems to be at 11am on a Thursday, so maybe i can get away with it at work (stick on a headset and everyone thinks you are on a teams meeting 🤣👍)

@Kaloudz Is it? Boo was going to watch it live 🤣

@Kaloudz Eh, i'm stuck on the old bloke with the cane 🤣

For no apprent reason Gears 2, Loved 1 back in the 360 days, beat it twice then again in co-op, cannot fathom why i never went back but played a bit of 5 for acheivements back when MS Rewards wanted them for points (remember that, crazy i almost miss doing them 🤣👍) and really enjoyed it, so vowed to get back but that was an age ago; Still holds up and Looks and Runs Great on Series X, just killed the BIG Fish 🤣 Also Crazy we have had 2 remasters of 1 and 2 & 3 have had nothing

Also, thinking about it, I think current tariffs are 30% and NONE OF THESE PRICE RISES EQUAL 30%, they are all less, so MS is eating some of cost, just not all of it

@MTR54 So why haven't UK prices haven't gone up like the US ones have?

Is the Galaxy Series X even available anymore? Think the MS store says out of stock, also bet it's still subisides if only minorly, they are over a barrel as 100% of xboxes come from china

@Coletrain Damn Straight Mate!!

@Coletrain Yeah also, from the look of the lack of dev kits and reports teams are being told to make switch 1 versions seems Nintnedo doesn't want you to get one just yet either 🤣

Mate this is a far cry from "xbox has no games" Keeper Definitely, also Ninja Gaiden and you bet Outerworlds 2 (beat the last one not long ago as was suprised how much i liked it)

@Coletrain Fair play, i either got lucky or just don't notice it on mine but cannot blame you for waiting it out 👍

Shinobi all weekend long

@Coletrain Okay educate me, what's up with the screen?

Shinobi!! Great Game Still

Loved this game, the finish was there all the time but fooled me good!!

Still sound awful 🤣

Worked this out for myself 🤣 But Good for everyone to know this👍

Recently beat Outer Worlds 1 and was suprised about how much i enjoyed it, so tempering expectations for 2 as i know life doesn't always work out 🤣

Late to the party as i have been hammering the new Shinobi game all weekend GREAT GAME!!

@OcelotRevolver Nope not even us 🤣

Mate aren't these all on Wos (World of Spectrum) for free? I grew up in the 8 bit era but while there are some games still worth playing from then, for me gaming really started in the 16 bit era

@Millionski looks like the Switch 2 sold around 6 million before Bananza came out and Mario Kart was a pack in for most (not me) so I still say most bought one because of the success of the Switch 1

Seems to me people buy consoles if they were happy with the last one, switch 2 has few games and none worth buying the system for, yet (when was the last console that did? Halo on the OG xbox?) but still selling really well. I for once am happy to sit on my hand for the next gen consoles as while i've gamed a lot on the Series X it's been mostly older games, so this Gen it's far from getting the best from either of the big main two (in terms of power) consoles Yet

i don't notice them either, but sure advertise me games i want all you like but i'm skint 🤣👍

Beat Gear 1 so many times but haven't finished any of the others, but seems it's about time i did 🤣👍

@Aeralto each to there own Mate, as i feel the opposte (ps one first party game a year for the last two years? even if Astrobot was nigh on perfect)

@Lup I will just for this reason 🫡

Didn't happen though 🤣👍

The Alters has pulled me away from 33, had to restart just before the second act as i realised i wasn't playing it right, speed ran it to get back to where i was before and it worked out much better, GREAT game and on Gamepass

The Meduim was just that but companies that keep making games seem to get better and they have, so fingers crossed for a good review score

@Banjo- Thanks for the Unity tip, not tried Fenyx Rising but Rayman Legends is an all time GREAT!!

@Banjo- Hah, i'm a 'from the start Guy' took me so long to get through the repetativeness of 1 i'm only about half way through 2 but Thanks, that's poked me to get back to it!!

The Alters is a fine distraction from Expedition 33 which is also Great Fun (now i have unstuck myself) and when i'm limited for time Strikers 1945 FTW

@WildConcept6 Yeah I saw multi platform as gamble I before i realised it’s the next logical step (as games get more expensive) to make after putting them on pc, xbox just got there first, as they have the least players; personally, like you I don’t care but also like you said, now PlayStation seem to be planning it too we are in a Crazy new world 😂👍
