Your list has a couple of games I’ve never played before, the rest are some of my absolute favourites. Time to update my to-play list I guess!
No problem! We really are spoilt for choice when it comes to excellent gaming books these days
Thanks! So many incredible books in the gaming space these days!
Yeah it seems like it’s just the game. Not great! At least it doesn’t seem to affect the climbing at all.
Thanks for looking into it. Much appreciated!
I’m not sure what it is exactly, but it’s REALLY bad. So much so that it feels as if something’s wrong. I’ve never known a game stutter so much 😕
I’m thoroughly enjoying Cairn, but is it normal that it seems to run at about 12fps when I’m not climbing?? I’m on PS5 Pro

Stone-cold classics! 😄
Ah fair enough. Well done for finding them so soon then!
Maybe I'll start posting some old ones out of context! Haha
The PS2 game that simply never gets old

Very strange. I have path tracing on too but it seems like we might be talking about a different issue.
I read there’s been a lot of issues with broken Nvidia drivers for it, so that could be the cause
The secret club? Haha. Man, that’s a good/tough question! I’ll have to have a think. Do you have a favourite one?
An excuse to re-play ICO!
(I do not need an excuse to re-play ICO, but this looks great)
Not on the character models, but I have noticed a very subtle flickering across the entire image at times. On PC this is
Much appreciated! Hopefully some people will find it interesting 😄
Yeah I probably should think about doing something like that to be honest.
They’re all in good condition so I’m sure they’d be of some use. I’ve seen sites online that have scans of lots of them, but there are always quite a lot missing too from the ones I’ve seen
Ah thanks mate, I really appreciate it. Seemed crazy having all this on a shelf just gathering dust, so thought it’d be cool to share it on here and hopefully get some retro discussion going! 🙂
I’ve created a new account where I'll finally be putting my collection of over 400 issues of Edge magazine to good use. It’s a treasure trove of gaming history that I think deserves to be preserved and shared.
If you enjoy learning and talking about gaming's good old days, consider checking it out!
That was great, thanks for posting!
I loved old Scrubs. New Scrubs makes me nervous but fingers crossed!
The Sega Dreamcast: Collected Works book is finally back in stock at @readonlymemory.com
Not a sponsored link or anything, just a shout-out to one of my absolute favourite gaming books. One I’d highly recommend to anyone.

Brilliant to see SO many people enjoying it (and Pokémon!) today!
What a day
Thanks! 😄

Uh-huh! 😨
Haha, fair point!
This game is actually making the thought of climbing quite appealing, but I think sticking with indoors climbing is the way to go! 😅
