Video Games

Oh man. Memories of hours of groovy skating and spraying to jap pop in the og xbox

I bought Inscryption yesterday on a whim, been glued to it since then. Very addicting

Does anyone have a spare dualshock4 (PS4) controller they’d sell?

Will be interesting to see what it ends up like, will be nice to have an official sequel (I've still yet to check out Bomb Rush Cyberfunk), but that Crazy Taxi gameplay looks pretty shite IMO!

Anyone willing to lend/sell for cheap some switch games over the holidays? Interested specifically in DOOM, Undertale, and Link's Awakening but could be convinced about other stuff.

Would return safely!

Loved the original Prince of Persia on the PlayStation and when I saw the gameplay trailer for a new one in a Metroidvania style it piqued my interest and this preview impressions video has cemented that interest.
Already wishlisted it so looking forward to grabbing it next year..

Has anyone ever tried running Xenia on a pc for Xbox 360 emulation?

My Xbox 360 won't run FIFA 17, it comes up with an unrecognised disk from Cex (I've now tried two), so I tried Xenia

The ROM loads, but loads of the text is missing, then everything exvept the pitch and ball is missing when doing a dribble training thing.

Maybe I just need to buy something more modern and give up on all the old tat

Any interest in Xbox One X?

Owned from brand new, never had an issue with it (was still playing on it a week ago).

Comes boxed with power adapter, hdmi cable and official controller.

Really not sure about a price, but based on recent eBay sales, maybe £100?

Based in London where it can be collected or could potentially post.

Played games for an hour or two. Had a choice between the Steamdeck and the RGB30.

The RGB30 won.

Pico8 ftw.

Randomly reminiscing about this old game I used to play. My best mate in school always had new games and imports. Great, great times playing Mega Drive (Gain Ground, Altered Beast, Golden Axe), Amiga (Super Silk Worm) and loads of others.

I would bring my Game Boy around and we’d do the link up to play F1 Race (interestingly also a HAL game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAL_Laboratory ) and others.

I had another mate in secondary school who had a Performa 600 and my dad would bring me and our 630 over on a Friday night and we’d play Warcraft and Marathon all weekend.

Great times! Been playing a Mahjong patience game on the iPhone but it’s not the same.

Power wash simulator gets all my gaming time at the moment.

Pretty zen, whack a podcast on, have a toke, enjoy the process.

There are a bunch of cheap handheld devices these days that emulate Gameboy, PS1, N64 etc. You could download those games and play them

For example

That is class.

Anyone played RoboCop Rogue City?
Just seen it's discounted on PSN, and quite fancy it.

Haven't, but heard great things from people whose opinions tend to match mine, fwiw.

I'm actually very happy about gta5 being on ps plus. My disc drive borked ages ago and it was near the cost of a new PS4 to fix it and all my other games are ddl so I just took the L (I'd already paid for the game twice, wasn't about to drop another 50) Probably going to be shitloads of online content I haven't seen yet

Very completely recommend the RGB30. Horizontal ergonomics, square screen, perfect scaling for Gameboy.

(Buy it from AliEx, for like £60. Don’t waste an extra £100 on reseller dropshipping.)

Cheers - and @PhilDAS for the OG recco. I was trying to get the site to work to order that last night, but I couldn’t seem to find the UK page for it, only French. Am I being dense?

Assuming you're on desktop. Sometimes because you searched from Google or elsewhere and clicked the advert link, which can be any one of the language links.

Go direct to AliEx dot com and search the model you want. Then search for the seller with the lowest price.

If you're still seeing French/Spanish/Etc look at the top right of the page.

Merci beucoup!

Been a while since I properly indulged in a steam sale... grabbed some indie games (death's door, tunic, dredge, gunbrella) and cyberpunk to keep me busy for a while.

Was tempted by more, but I think by the time I'm done with all these they will be another sale, so may as well wait.

Been gifted Hogwarts Legacy for xmas. Its already downloaded on Steam. Anyone else playing?

played it a fair bit at launch on PS5. Enjoyed it, but then other games....
