I have somehow managed to get through life without ever playing a Need For Speed game so I'll give it a go for ten minutes. Vampyr I'm actually interested in so not a bad month for me.
I've had both xboxes and playstations in previous generations and I still haven't made up my mind which way to go next gen yet. Not having to pay a subscription to play online would be a really big factor in my decision.
I never pay more than £20 for games. Why would I? The games industry has never been bigger and has never made more money. They know that x amount of customers will pay full price, then x amount will pay less a few weeks or months later. This is all factored in to their marketing strategies. You don't need to pay full price now and you won't in the future either.
It still amazes me that being able to completely redefine all the controls isn't standard by now. I have a weird hand spasm thing which makes me click R3 randomly and it ruins some games for me.
When I first played Shenmue I was actually working as a forklift driver. One Sunday morning I was playing the game waiting for the pub to open. In the game I was playing Space Harrier waiting for the bars to open so I could ask some guys about sailors. Blew my mind at the time, lol. (Incidentally, I wasn't going to the pub to ask about sailors in real life.)

It'll be on PS Plus by the end of the year. Calling it now.
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About PS4 Exclusives Being Ported to PC?
Unless games get pulled from the store, Cyberpunk-style, they haven't 'gone' anywhere. So what difference does it make?
Re: Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Won't Release in 2021, Hardsuit Labs No Longer the Lead Developer
To be fair they never actually finished making the first one either.
Re: Next-Gen The Sinking City Launches on 19th February for PS5
I quite enjoyed this one. It's janky af and a bit limited, but worth picking up in a sale if you like Lovecraftian things.
Re: PS5 Scalpers Continue to Scoop Up New Stock
I've given up any thought of buying a PS5 this year. I'll put the money towards a new PC and pick up a PS5 Pro when they come out instead.

Re: The Last of Us: Part II - Essential Sequel Is Naughty Dog's Best Effort
How does it run though? Consistent 60 fps or should I wait for the inevitable PS5 version?
