  1. It seems he was also a producer for Legends of Wrestling. There's a strange link. He doesn't appear to have had a hand-on role with any critically praised games in the past. His resume consists mostly of Disney shovelware titles. If that's any guide, it probably won't be a great game anyway.
  2. My brother bought a broken PS1 and turned it into a bag.
  3. The next post will contain the first entry I've seen. That surprises even me.
  4. Zynga and free-to-play isn't a promising combination.
  5. That presumably means no relegation from the National League. That's a relief for a few teams.
  6. You'll just have to start the most recent level again with five lives. You won't need to start the game all over again like in the old Mario games.
  7. Is the Stardew Valley update worthwhile for people continuing midway through a previous playthrough?
  8. And it was the same journalist, Andy Robinson, who first revealed the existence of the Mario remasters.
  9. How about something like Planet Coaster or Parkitect? Do you have Two Point Hospital?
  10. I reckon the Smash Bros. news might take up half the show. Smash Directs often last a while.
  11. This probably won't interest many people, but today marks the 150th anniversary of Maidenhead United's first match at York Road. They're still playing there today, making them the team with the longest unbroken stretch at the same home ground in the world.
  12. There's a nice list of games coming to Game Pass next week. Dirt 5 has to be a highlight as it only came out in November. It's enhanced for the Series X and S too. I've also wanted to try out Wreckfest and Elite Dangerous, so those are welcome additions. Killer Queen is supposed to be fun as well.
  13. There's a full-fledged Nintendo Direct tomorrow, the first since September 2019. I'm more excited for this than I really ought to be.
  14. I'm surprised it's taken as long as it has. I'm interested to see what mods people might come up with.
  15. A more pertinent question to ask if why you aren't a cat in the other games.
  16. I sometimes find it difficult to rate individual episodes because, until the last couple of series, there were only a few ones that focused on a single storyline. I used to think I liked Series 6, but, looking back, I think that opinion was shaped largely by the last episode. "Battle of the Bastards" was entertaining, although it seemed to mark the point at which spectacular setpieces that could only occur because of the characters' stupidity became standard practice. Really, I think that's the worst thing about the later series. The story used to hinge on the consequences of the characters' actions, and how the biggest events were shaped by the decisions they made over the course of the previous scenes. Later on, it seemed that the writers dreamed up some action scenes without any serious notion of how to get there, so they just made previously intelligent characters come up with ridiculous plans for the purposes of Hollywood-style entertainment. One example would be having the Dothraki charge into the darkness to their deaths. It was a really memorable visual, but it was a completely idiotic military strategy. Then the Dothraki were back two episodes later anyway, so it didn't end up mattering. Of course, you've also got the infamous "Dany kinda forgot about the Iron Fleet" scene. The thing I remember most about that scene was Jaime saying that he never cared for the common people of Kings Landing, "innocent or otherwise". That's a rather strange statement to make from someone who forever sullied his reputation to save many of those very same people.
  17. It's an interesting one. I'm not someone who buys the game every year, so it's not a problem I have. Maybe it would be worth seeing what the next-gen versions look like in comparison with the previous-gen games. Things like these make me really wish that cross-platform progression was more common.
  18. That makes sense. Its design sensibilities are more akin to the 2D games than the more "open" ones. I like it a lot and am looking forward to playing it on Switch, but I don't think it's going to be remembered as much as the other games you mentioned, simply because it's largely a continuation of the formula. That's no bad thing, though.
  19. England still look too ill-disciplined. Wales ought to fancy their chances against them in the next match, while France could stuff them.
  20. Derby is never a better location than anywhere.
