Sine Mora Ex <21.98>
Bayonetta special edition <69.99>
Axiom Verge special edition <33.63>

All on the Switch... A bit of retail therapy to cheer me up although Axiom Verge has to go back as the box is squashed. There's another on the way.

Seventy bloody quid?

Is that just for the first game?

Nah, that’ll probably be the second game with a download code for the first. You can only buy the original online and that’s only, like, £25/30.

I’d be more bothered about paying £22 for Sine Mora EX when it’s a 5 year old game that goes for peanuts on every other system it’s on.

What about £50 for a 6 year old Wii U game?

Satsuma · **Joined:** 20th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14356

FIFTY POUNDS!?

TheVision · **Posted:** Sun Feb 18, 2018 16:27

Yep, it's Bayonetta 1 & 2 with some collectors gubbins like a steel case and some other stuff. All in a neat little box.

i wasted 3€ on the crypt of the necrodancer. "Wasted" because my wife hates the keyboard clacking, so i'm not going to play it anytime soon.

Playing it soft is not the same thing.

That's my "game of the moment". Took a while to get into it but it's great.

It helps that the soundtrack is so good. And i still haven't tried custom songs.

Yowch.

Doctor Glyndwr · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 32619

It has the DLC season pass included and a free copy of Far Cry 3 special edition (which I don’t have for PS4), so I figured why not...?

Someone thinks you're killing videogames.

I forget who.

I try not to pre-order but MrsDoc wants it. Also, if the reviews are somehow bad (not likely I think) I’ll just cancel the order.

Good job you didn't get it on the Switch, then.

The only remastering I need from burnout paradise is not asking me to login to EA network every time I launch it. I have shills just thinking about it.

Too rich for my blood. I'd have to get PS+ back too.

Burning of the P - PS4 - <£29>

(i had credit on my US account so bought it there - $40 is about £29)

devilman · **Posted:** Fri Mar 09, 2018 21:49

I saw that Gas Guzzlers Extreme was on offer, and watching the videos, it reminded me of Flat Out, so I thought I'd buy it.

<3.85>

Went to add it to Steam.. already have have the damn thing.

For sure! The first game was fucking incredible and I've just kept an eye on the second one as it's dropped in price. I'm not ever ready to play it right now but couldn't resist for that price.

I bought Star Realms on Steam (it also gives access to the android version). <4.99>

This game was recommended to me on the Boardgames thread and is absolutely brilliant. I should buy the real cards.

Yeah but you don't have mrsa watching the post and moaning about clutter (which is why I am not buying a sledgehammer today, curiously), and she won't check the bank statement for another week.
