Who is more the fool? The fool, or the fool who follows the fool?

Wasn’t it a Tory policy that Labour adopted? Either way, absolutely awful and really does illustrate how little difference there between the major parties.

Like how you can panic guards in Hitman so they don’t notice you trespassing.

That’s awesome!

Charlie!

Sounds right up my boulevard!

Hollow Knight is also in my backlog, waiting for it’s time. Thanks for the recommendations!

I’m on ps5. Lies of P is on my wishlist but the sales haven’t been low enough yet. I never played Bloodborne though. I tried it back in the day but immediately bounced off. Now knowing that I do like punishing games, I’d love to give it a retry. However, as it likely won’t get a 60fps patch, I probably never will. I loved Elden Ring until I didn’t but I was always wanting the combat to be like Sekiro. Apparently 9 Sols has a similar flow. I’ve started it but not yet properly sunk my teeth into it. I started Hitman for the first time this year and it’s pretty much all I’ve played in 2026!

It’s a really special game and such a shame that we won’t get a sequel. I had heard Lies of P is similar. Just waiting for a healthy sale to give it a try.

Totally fair. Sekiro was my first fromsoft since Tenchu. I had no frame of reference other than the game so I just ploughed on. Took a looong time and it was very stressful at first. Once I’d done it without the charm though, the patterns got really locked in so I look forward to the challenge on subsequent playthroughs.

I never cheesed the Demon of Hatred. The game had taught me to enjoy the punishment by that point so I just learned the patterns like a regular chump.

I love Hitman and everything I’ve heard about this sounds really cool.

Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew

Absolute fox

Not a favourite but back in the day, me and my friend played the shit out of Battle Arena Toshinden on the PS1. Have since heard on various podcasts that people hated it. I genuinely loved it at the time.

Essentially yes but they balance the wooden weapons against the mechs so though it feels a bit silly, it’s really good fun. It’s super pretty and I myself do not mind a map collectathon game now and again.

Definitely not alone! It was the first one I played, and I had some genuine laugh out loud moments in the intro alone. Flawed but so much fun.

God I hope not. It’s the only bad thing about the hitman games.

Upvote for ruffle

All good points. It only stuck with me when I heard it because I personally loved the term moron (it’s fun to say and can be really cutting). But I’m also well aware that loads of the words me and my friends used growing up are now (rightly) frowned upon.
