@NEStalgia Haha, no. Outside of London our transit system is absolutely terrible. In most areas of the country we have no choice but to travel by car. The cost of living here is getting ridiculous. £70 games are/ are becoming a luxury most cannot afford.
Just a heads up in case anyone is in the same boat as me. I redeemed my code and immediately got booted out of PSN. Kept trying again with no luck until I looked in my library and the Destiny Beta was sitting there. I loaded that up and after a few tries managed to get it downloaded.
@Itachi part of the reason they do that is to fill a 90 minute slot. Just make it a shorter pre recorded show and save the numbers for another time (or after it has finished).
Hell yes! I've been saying for years that the live press conferences are archaic and a waste of time. They are cringeworthy and just awkward at times. I was very impressed with Nintendos showing this year and would love to see 'the big two' follow suit.
One thing that bothers me in these conferences is the insistence on showing the first 5 minutes of a game. It totally ruins it for when you get round to playing it yourself surely? I'm all for gameplay trailers - just mix them up and don't give too much away.
When it comes to exclusives (timed or not) the only people who lose out are gamers. It's so annoying when something is announced as an exclusive at the press conferences and a bunch of middle-aged 'un-biased' (note the quotation marks) journalists whoop like a bunch of monkeys.
I still need to play through MGS4. I've tried several times but just not managed to get further than halfway. Once I do that, i'll be very excited for MGSV.

Re: EA Sports FC Could Be the New Name for FIFA Games
I think 'Something resembling a mediocre football game designed to exploit and extort money from minors' is much catchier.
Re: Persona 5 Celebrates Fifth Anniversary with Striking Blood Red Artwork
Huh, good timing. I started playing Royal about two hours ago. The length is daunting but I have heard good things.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 392
@TraCuz- That sucks. What did you discard? I accidently binned my Emerald Weapon lance when that was relevant content. Wasn't a nice feeling...
