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

Nintendo Switch tax isn't it?
Oh... Also, Firewatch <6.40>
This is his montage sequence.
<5.79> Titanfall 2 Jump Start Pack
Titanfall 2 ultimate edition PS4 <11.99>
That's some powerful value for money.

Meanwhile, I jizzed <£3> on some Indiegala bundle I'll never play.
<1.49> Xon:Ep 3 for Android.
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.
<5> The Room: Old Sins (iOS)
<0.89> Dollar Viva Bundle.

29 Steam games for a dollar isn't bad. Here are my spares if someone wants them (the IGT Slots game is worth a go) -

V9TPK-3V78K-AVA9R - Twisted Lands Trilogy: Collector's Edition
9CE4W-YTX3I-IHLXY - Total Extreme Wrestling
IE58A-33A5B-DN09W - World of Mixed Martial Arts 3
I0VVR-G5RG0-QJ4YH - IGT Slots Paradise Garden
DGXXX-BLEBD-XXAJM - Living Legends: The Frozen Fear Collection
HR7E5-XK6PN-EJ5RH - Lost Legends: The Weeping Woman Collector's Edition
DTY47-40GMH-Z9J8F - Draft Day Sports Pro Basketball 4
<0.75> Xon: Ep 4
<59> Far Cry 5 Gold Editon (PS4, pre-order)
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.

I'm more offended that he gave 22 pounds for sine mora.
<6.49> Here They Lie PSVR
<30> Burnout Paradise Remastered PS4
<35> Burnout Paradise Remastered PS4 but the cool download version not the shitty data-Frisbee version
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)
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.

KNB8K-4MAND-PIN5A if anyone wants it. :)
<5.99> Banzai Run (Pro Table) for Pinball Arcade on Steam. This is the first money I've spent on games this year outside of my WoW subscription.
<6.99> Dishonored 2 for the PC.

Ooohh you're in for a treat there. Same as the first one though, do low chaos first, and then high chaos.
<5.99> Little Nightmares PC

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.
Danmaku Unlimited 3 on the Switch <8.09>
Energy Cycle on the Xbone <1.20>

And I've also had a <-20> refund on my GPD XD. More on that when I do a write up for the forum.
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.

With appropriate usage, a sledgehammer can be used to reduce clutter HTH HAND
