General Gaming RIP in Peace, Dead Space 2 Remake
gamer.tv replied to Commissar SFLUFAN's topic in The Spawn Point
I feel guilty as I’ve still not bought the remake despite really liking DS1 and 2. -
Books What Are You Reading or Listening To?

I’ve just read Taste by Stanley Tucci which was lovely and now onto Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow -
General Gaming What are you playing today?
gamer.tv replied to CastlevaniaNut18's topic in The Spawn Point
I bought Pikmin 4 today. I’ve had a strange relationship with the series. I love the premise, but the gameplay has never really matched up with what I hoped. This apparently streamlines and irons out the issues with 3, keeping the overall charm. Either way, it’s been a classic slow start, but I can see the systems in place that are coming and I’m liking it. I just hope I get a way of returning Pikmin to me after doing a job without having to literally go and collect them. -
General Gaming What games have you purchased lately?
gamer.tv replied to Chris-'s topic in The Spawn Point
I was out and about today and picked up World of Hitman and Pikmin 4. I might have a Quick Look at the eshop sale and see if anything grabs me…namely whether I actually want FF9 and FF6 on my Switch. -
General Gaming Anybody still subscribe to any gaming mags?
gamer.tv replied to GeneticBlueprint's topic in The Spawn Point
Unless I go to a particular shop, I can’t even really find them anymore. I’m now an old man, newspaper buyer -

More Zelda, I’ve started to get the Fierce Diety Set, which I’ll upgrade to level 2. Then, using a guide as I don’t care at this point, I’ll get myself a load of Shrines and upgrades and think about the end game. -

Now Pokemon is done, I’ve got a gulf in my life so I’ve dipped back into Tears of the Kingdom. I’ve just got the Master Sword and now have the vaguely overwhelming task of getting suitable armour, weapons, stats, meals, general upgrades to be ready for the endgame. I think I’ll buy something a bit more streamlined tomorrow that I can play over the Easter holidays - I keep returning back to Mario RPG and Bayonetta 3 (which I still haven’t grabbed) so maybe I’ll get them tomorrow. -
General Gaming ~*D1P's Games of 2024*~
gamer.tv replied to Commissar SFLUFAN's topic in The Spawn Point
Bit of a shocker this is my first completed game this year. Pokemon Violet: B- At no point would I say this was a great game, it ran like shit, the story wasn’t overly interesting l, and the world was dull but…it did enough to make me want to finish it. I’ll never touch it gain however and unless Pokemon has a major revolution, I probably wont come back to the series unless they pull on the nostalgia. -

I’m on holiday so I’ve brought my switch with me and cracking on with Pokemon Violet. I’ve finished all the gyms, found all the herbs, and have one Star base to go. I just want to level up a Dratini into a Dragonite, then I’ll see out the various storylines. Update: just been levelling up and now my whole team is between 62 and 68. Probably time to go fight the end bosses and then delete this silly, silly game. Might go back to Tears of the Kingdom and wrap that up, or make an equally silly move and play Paper Mario, Banjo Kazooie, or Majora’s Mask and try and compete them for the first time ever. -
Getting some antibiotics after a quick chat with my local doctor, only downside is I can’t go back to work until Thursday which is a long time off in the world of teaching!

90% sure it’s tonsillitis or strep a

It feels that way, but I’ve always had a weird reading with our digital thermometer (35C) and generally anything over 36C is me unwell…I definitely flit between being freezing cold and hot as hell.

Even if it was serious, I doubt I’d get an appointment for anything!

I woke up on Sunday with my body aching, sore throat, very tired - and thought it might be a hangover (though my alcohol intake wasn’t exactly hangover related worthy). Carried on all day then at 4pm staring to fee really shaken and cold - so had a nap and woke up worse. I slept about 12 hours last night r still feel achy, massive headache, no appetite…. Thoughts and prayers please

Probably worth doing this one too, really make the crisis official

I’d be worried about all the spooky things that apparent may happen there!

If I was buying new, it would be on finance (so essentially renting) as that comes with free repairs etc in the UK. We’ve bought used and, due to UK law have it checked once a year to ensure it’s road legal (and worthy). Never been an issue really. Just don’t buy something you can’t cover the costs of massive failure.

I wish I worked in an area where actual trios were a thing…were more of a ‘go to a training at some other school for a day’ kind of sector.

My mother-in-law gave me a spare copy of Year of the Locust, which has been action-y, spy book - then in the last 100 pages has become shite. -
I prefer the corners and edges of Brownies and the centers of Lasagna.

I would gladly only eat the top inch of any lasagne and call it a day. -
Nintendo Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door [May 23, 2024]
gamer.tv replied to Keyser_Soze's topic in The Spawn Point
Need to finish Pokemon, buy Mario RPG and then this. -
At some point, there needs to be an overall conversation and a ‘sorting out’ of lawful ‘preservation’ for media that is not available via a streaming/download service and is also not still being produced physically. I can understand not being happy about the availability of anything that can be purchased in a manner the IP owner receives money, but everything else, on any platform, if the IP owner hasn’t made it available, should be fair game.
