Ah yes, GsH... which appeared on the Wii Virtual Console.

I'd trust Balla to know what he's beaten from the Nontendo side of gaming.

Just seems odd to me as your right but I don't see it as that I see it as a Mega Drive game.

And when we done likes of votes or 20 questions (mines easy this time guys) we don't count VC.

He means a game not on a Nintendo console, mas.

I know that, I'm just saying if told me you'll playing Gunstar Heroes, I'd think your playing it on Mega Drive.

I'd think you'd be playing it on GBA or even that super well know version that was hidden inside rad mobile.

Psst, the GBA version was the sequel!

...so does anyone have any thoughts on AA (I feel it'd appeal to any PW fans who want something to tide them over until PW6), or other finished games? Or are we going to continue debating what my definition of a Nontendo game is?

Considering Balla's lifelong misuse of the word "multiformat" I think this is a pretty valid debate.

That said, AA does look intriguing. I just know I'll never get round to playing it right now. Is it on phones or anything?

Just on Steam as far as I'm aware. I'll agree that having the original AA trilogy on my 'phone was hugely convenient (although it did lead to some awkward moments with lamp-posts walking down the street).

I used to work three midnights a week, and my walk back to my then flat took me through a big car park with some waist high bollards. Literally at least once a week, I would be wondering home while looking at the ol' NGamer forum on my phone and I would collide with one of these bollards testicles-first.

More like ballards, amiright!? hahaha... god I'm funny.

Killer Jokes aside, I've just finished Super Hot!


This game is just like any other shooter save for one really interesting mechanic, time only moves when you do. This may sound as though it's the most casual of casual shooting games- but it's actually very intense at times. There's no real plot to speak of because anything I say will spoil it. Although it's not heavy on story anyway with a 2 hour campaign there is a a huge amount of replay value as well as challenges and other game modes to keep you interested. Altogether it's a really great Sunday-afternoon type game but it's still pretty pricey. Currently £16 on Steam.

You should really check it out though, it's the most innovative shooter I've played in years.
10/10

When it goes on sale, I'll pick it up for next time I do a lots-of-games-in-one-Sunday event.

SteamWorld Heist



What Jaster said (although I thought the shield thing was cool).

18/20

Hitman GO: Definitive edition (PS4)



A very clever little puzzle game that is always adding something new to the mix (though that could happen a bit quicker in the start) & it is probably best played on a mobile device but if you can pick up this version cheap like I did then it's worthy of your time.

Oooh, I love that whole board game look with Hitman Go. Very cool.

Aye each chapter is a separate board game too 2 of which are based on missions from the actual games (Blood money & the St Petersburg mission from Hitman 2) no idea how it'd work but I'd play a real life board game like this.

I'd imagine it with one player controlling all the guards/ civilians etc and another playing as Agent 47. Maybe you can't look during the Agent's turn, so he has an opportunity to use disguises and stuff?

A brilliantly witty "meta-game," that'll run on just about anything.

As is so often the case with these sorts of games, it's really difficult to talk about it without spoiling it, so I shall only say this.

If you own a computer which turns on, give this game a whirl. It ought to run on a rotten potato, and it only costs £3.99. Absolutely perfect for those with an afternoon to spare. I may just have to think of something amusing to write about it for a game of the year piece - thank God it launched in January!

Sidenote: I love the way Hitman Go looks. I think I'll wait until I have a decent phone to play it even though it is both PS platforms and PC.

As I said that's probably the best place to play Hitman Go though I believe the the blood money & hitman 2 chapters have to be bought separately.

Third massive recommendation of PI. I need to acquire a mouse this weekend.

I just beat the Elite Four, so I'm calling it a day on Pokémon Red. I battered through this in just over fifteen hours, only cheating in the last half-hour because I couldn't be arsed with grinding after the eighth gym leader.

It's Pokémon Red: it's a wee bit dated and it's all very familar, but it's still a fantastic game. There's not much else needing said. 9/10.

Fifteen hours?! That's practically a speedrun. I'll be lucky to get the third gym done fifteen hours in!

Some RPGs, especially those by by Squeenix, have job systems. These usually fall into the genre's standard "black mage, white mage, attacker, defender" pots, with a handful of quirky ones you'll never use more than once. I was thinking that I want to see an Air Traffic Controller job, where you attack your opponents by flying planes into them. Or thematically appropriate equivalent.

Do you have any examples of jobs you really like? Or any jobs you wish an RPG would use that they haven't yet?

...you'll just never appreciate the greatness of Some RPGs: Comma, Cappa.

(Yeah yeah, wrong thread.)

Is it just me and Muss who have ponied up the cash to beat PI at the moment? I want a few more people to beat it so we can talk about it with spoilers!
