Hmm...

Could be alright, maybe? Going to need some more info. Supposedly it's Celtic mythology with an emphasis on Mental illness. So it would either be great or extremely cringe inducing.

The Nintendo E-Shop has a few ported Turbo Grafix 16 games for the Wii U. I have been playing R-Type all morning.

Have we hyped and speculated upon Cyberpunk 2077 yet?

Well apparently the team working on it was larger than for Witcher 3 and was maintained even during that game's crunch time, and the co-creator of Cyberpunk 2020 is advising the team as well. So it should be pretty good.

Also on the trade mark issue:

1.) Trademark doesn't mean that no one is allowed to use Cyberpunk as a term. It just means that no video games are allowed to use it in their title or marketing to avoid product dilution.

2.) CD Projekt Red bought the trademark from R. Talsorian Games, the people who made the Tabletop system this game is based on.

Is there actually any new news about it though or are we still looking at a possible 2019 release date. I find it hard to get hyped about a game that won't get released for at least 2 years

Not sure if I mentioned it, but I finished Horizon Zero Dawn recently. That game was amazing! The back story was great.

I'm about to get into Dishonoured 2, but I really need to buy the Dark Souls III DLC and play through that game again. Not sure which I should do first...

Back in Dark Souls because I wanted to try dex/faith and finally joined the warriors of sunlight. Holy junk, that lightning spear.

I'm so nervous about using my Fat PS3 80gb, might need to track down a nice used Slim. Been going through a good old PS3 kick recently.

I stopped playing Rise Of The Tomb Raider 20 minutes before the end, finished it completionist sake. The significant of everything was lost on me, but I think that I prefer that series to Uncharted. Nathan Drake is just a douche.

[ziltoid]

New fire emblem coming out soon, much excite.

[GAS KING]

Got the Diablo 3 Nechro beta. Only had a chance to play for 20 mins or so, but seems cool. I'll have to research the skills as I haven't been following the Nechro release at all.

[blakestree]

Pre-ordered Little Nightmares!

[MechaGodzilla]

I bought all the fallout4 dlc and now I'm unsure whether to start a new guy. I've sunk a lot of time into one and I like him, but he has a perma-debuff of -10hp that you can't get rid of on ps4 and that annoys me way more than it should.

I also played shadow complex for the first time. It's got some nice mechanics but it's ultimately a really dull and tedious game (and I love metroidvanias). I wasn't surprised when I found out it was based on some OSC dross but that was after I'd already downloaded it

Dont start a new character.
Youre gonna need to be leveled up for Far Harbour.
It is brutal.

[cherler]

Not making a new character in Bethesda games is so hard for me. I swear made at least two or three dozen in Skyrim, and all the mods I downloaded were to change the early game with new characters...

Shadowrun was a far better pen and paper setting and I have very fond memories of the old Sega cart Shadowrun game.

Still, my long suffering love of cyberpunk means I'll buy this. SOmeday I'll complete the Neuromancer game, too.

Thanks for the heads up

Yeah last time i started Skyrim over was to change from playing story quests to just roaming and hunting, survival styles.
It didnt last too long but id like to give that another crack one day.

Yeah man, within the first hour of landing on the island inwas having second thoughts.
But its probably one of the best recent fallout story arcs.
Thoroughly enjoyable.
