The brief screen at the end says it's on PS4 and PS5, is console exclusive for a limited time, and also available on PC

It's actually been a few years since I've anticipated a game's release, but I'm looking forward to seeing what they've come up with for this. Looks good

As MA has pointed out, there's no equivalence between those issues and covid-19. You also can't argue that concern for covid-19 is supplanting concern for those issues, because there are existing ...

But the examples you gave largely involve a significant degree of personal choice and have a much longer history than covid-19.


Not really comparable, though - people who go to pubs are...

We do - that's why there are drinking guidelines, health warnings on cigarette packets and a highway code (and DUI laws). But this has nothing to do with covid-19.

Cynical though I often am, in...

I played MO a lot. The gameplay wasn't as polished as the Abe games or Stranger by any stretch, but I enjoyed most of it. I also think they struck quite a good tone in terms of the balance between...

Sounds novel - a bit different to my usual bitter acquaintance, but I enjoy a latte (very middle-class of me, I know), so I might appreciate the sweetness. Let's hope it hits.


Sounds like my...

Azera's fairly good, but it's still just dirty instant. A pot of Taylor's Lava Java is what you want for a much more aesthetically pleasing heart-attack.

I thought the Native/Industrial theme argument would be here right up until the end of the world as well, but it will also be banished to irrelevance.

Dirty, abyss-black coffee is my preference - not a massive fan of instant, but works when I can't be bothered cleaning my cafetiere. Not too big on tea, but I do like chamomile quite a lot - a bit...

Found the same thing with rabbits - because of their sensitive digestive system, they're regarded as exotic pets, and contrary to Warner Bros' insistence, carrots aren't the best thing for them.

Never owned one, but I like them - a friend once almost bought one on a whim, but I advised against spontaneously buying an exotic pet without first knowing how to look after it...

It's only lucky if it's not constant. Which, on reflection, it hasn't been.

I take your point on that - the sense I get from those sorts of puzzles tends to be one of relief rather than satisfaction. It can be quite fun to finally nail it down, but the repetition does quite...

To be fair, in AE, some of the puzzles leave essentially zero room for the slightest error - I'm thinking of the secret where you have to trap the scrab behind a barrier, lead the mudokons onto the...

Yeah, it was good that it offered the player a choice. I knew a few people who played AO on PS1 and they never got past Rupture Farms (in fact, one of them gave me the game for that reason...), so...

The hardest one - I didn't like the idea of having "health", it seemed a bit too forgiving for a game that I felt was about precision. I struggled to come to terms with the lack of a grid for the...
