Just goes to show you're out of the loop gramps. Minecampf is still all the rage with us groovy youngsters!

Isn't that the game that was banned in Germany?

My children went to see A Minecraft Movie and loved it. They have been playing the original and Dungeons all weekend. I thought the Minecraft brand was dying and being replaced by Roblox.


Roblox did dethrone Minecraft for a while a couple years ago, but then I guess around 3 years ago it had a big resurgence. According to my son, it is very much based on what? Streamers are currently playing it. That goes way farther into a game's popularity.

Sony increased the price of the digital version of ps5.

It now costs the same as the Switch 2 bundle including Mario Kart World.

Maybe someday on sale. I'm not all that interested in it, unfortunately.

I've been playing Minecraft this week for the first time. Foiled by my daughter who has since mastered it and won;t let me near the Switch.

Maybe get the Java Edition on Steamdeck?

Did not consider that - I guess you could install it from the desktop... I've not fiddled with the desktop mode at all on the Steamdeck yet.

I was thinking about this. I don't see a future where Minecraft Roblox or Fortnite ever go away (unless one of them screws with the formula).

Minecraft is used as a teaching tool in schools, which is the "entry drug" Then they move onto Roblox (while still dabbling in MC), then onto Fortnite. Then if they stick with gaming, they move on to the wider world, or if they don't, they "outgrow" games.

Microsoft have been good shepards of MC.  I can see Epic stuffing up Fortnite somewhere along the way - less so that Roblox - it's only threats are regulation and litigation.

I'm surprised that Roblox hasn't made it to a Nintendo console yet.

I'm having a blast playing through Super Mario Galaxy again. I wasn't going to try a playthrough but just a few stars. But the game is too good to put down. In just over twenty four hours I am about to complete it. Its one of those rare games that I wish I could forget everything about it and experience it for the first time again.

So what are the Yakuza games like?


I've always been curious and now they are becoming more accessible to Nintendo platformers I might pick one up when cheap.


It's always looked like Shenmue with beat em up sections? Is that right?

Not really, Shenmue is a lot more adventure game like, investigating stuff. Yakuza is very much action beat em up like but with an open city to run around in. The fighting system is like a 3D beat em up, it gets better each game but you basically pick up objects around the world and bash people with them. Tons of mini games, fun side stories and things to do.

I got back into DMCV to play the SE stuff i never tried and man what a game! I beat the new legendary mode which adds like x10 the enemies, its like a crazy Warriros game. Vergil is OP as hell, so much fun to play as. This game is an action masterpiece.

I also started Blue Prince. Not so sure of the rogue aspects, much rather it just be a set world like witness or Lorelai. But im intrugued.

Yeah I did think it looked like a 3D beat em up.

Just discovered that my TV has VRR.

I didn't realise, I'd forgotten about its other specs too, 144hz, HDR, and its OLED. Feel like I'm set up for the next 8 years.

I was watching Doom Eternal on Steamdeck, I didn't realise how much more powerful Steamdeck was over Switch 1.

I knew in terms of teraflops, but the handheld presentation of Doom Eternal looked so good.

I really hope they update Switch Doom for Switch 2. I'd love to play it handheld at that kind of fidelity.

I've seen a lot of videos lately with people gushing over the Switch 2s screen quality.

Pretty amazed at how smooth, crisp and colourful it looks.

So I'm playing Greak Memories of Azur, during the game you walk past this Star Wars like buffalo creature the scouts ride in.

You see it several times in the base and I imagined how cool it would be if you could ride it.

I never expected them to actually do it, but later in the game you can. And they fall flat. You are auto running and have to jump or flip from foreground to background.

How sad. If you could ride it like the Rhino in DKC or even like Warriors of Fate it could have been awesome.
