Just what's the fucking point any more. Remakes and remasters are probably the most bankable products the industry has at the moment and even studios that are doing incredible work in this field are getting closed.

Ah nice! I played one of the Super Bombermans on SNES years ago, and dabled with all of them on emulation over the years. Im disappointed the collection doesnt have Mega Bomberman or Saturn Bomberman as they're the best ones!

How are they both? Ive got the Switch versions on preorder but they're not out for a few months.

Can I cheat a little and say my signed video game / memorabilia collection? My favourite ones change week by week, but it's hard to look past Miyamoto, Koshiro and Kamiya.

Ive been searching for issue 183 for about a year now. Last issue I need to complete 1-184...

I bought the Sega Saturn version on the day of release and have been a fan ever since. Lara Croft stands aside Mario and Sonic as my formative gaming idols, and I dont think I'd be in the industry now without icons like Lara!
It might not be the Saturn version, but my signed PS1 copy hangs proudly.

Super Mario Bros! Was a pretty good year.

They need someone with proven quality. Someone who has recently won a European trophy. Someone available. Someone Australian.

The rushed release of this shit show has Atari's fingerprints all over it. Im deeply concerned for Nightdive Studios going forward.

I guess he would know about this.

Haha! I didnt think of that. Im likely never getting out at the this rate.

Nicolas Cage.

Completely on the ref that red card. If the ref had booked him earlier in the game for any of the numerous yellow card worthy fouls, he doesnt make that horrific challenge on Merino.

Normally Id disagree whole heartedly on this, but then I remembered that Amazon owns the rights and I realise Id be fine never seeing the character ever again.

I feel if we were to have got them we would have by now. Its a real shame as the remaster was so good.

I remember picking that up for my Mega CD back in the day (around '95 probably). Game is quality. Cutscenes... less so 🤣

You're in for a treat. The Thing is my favourite film ever and They Live is amazing.

Finished Silksong, 100% with the true ending. What a game.
Feared the worst with Lost Lace, she is damned tough, but the tools/crest system really does give you amazing options.

The Stand, good choice. My favourite book. First 3rd of it is the most terrifying shit ever.

Its arrived!!!

Thank you so much @talkingbottom.bsky.social ! Can't wait to get stuck in to this later (ooo-er).

Great news! Thank you so much for the update and your work with all of this. Can't imagine its been much fun! Can't say how much im looking forward to getting my copy! Thank you!!

Where to begin!?

Eternal Darkness
Jedi Knight Dark Force 2
Rogue Squadron 1+2
Aliens vs Predator

Honestly you guys are just knocking everything out of the park right now.

Amazing as always! Thank you Nightdive!

Fab news! Been waiting on this one! Any chance the recent I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream remaster will see a release as well?

I was obsessed with Command & Conquer (and Red Alert) when it came out, spent hours playing on my mates Dad's PC, got it on my PC eventually, bought it (and completed it!) on the Saturn with a controller... So yeahim it'd probably be that.

Duke Nukem 3D. Or Command & Conquer, depending on the mood!

If you feel strongly about the decline of physical gaming media, let Nintendo know about it.

Thanks! I emailed them a few weeks back and got no response, which didn't bode well...

Had the pleasure of speaking with Stoo Cambridge today at the Nottingham Video Games Expo, and couldn't pass up the opportunity to have him sign my @readonlymemory.com Sensible Software 1986-1999 book, adding to Jon Hare and Gary Penn!!
