    Probably be a nice time to get the original out on the Switch too!
    Maybe an upscaled Luigi's Mansion 2 while they are at it!

    DOOM 3 Portable baby!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,260 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Or €4.99, €4.99 and €9.99


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,348 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    No Switch tax either. All three games for €20 means everyone should pick them up.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,626 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Bought them all, plus each one earns a few cents in points so saved there a little too!
    Youngbloods is very tempting too

    Shame they didn't put the new Doom on half-price sale along with them, they would have got me to buy all four Doom games for 50.

    That would have been smart but you can’t fault the price for Doom 3 wow. It’s amazing and I had coins so only paid like €8.

    Playing it right now on Switch and it looks soooo good!

    Hmm. Doom 3 is a nice surprise, but Dooms 1 and 2 on Switch have less appeal than PC because at least on PC mods and HD texture packs are available. And I say this as a dork who still occasionally replays original Doom... still, at least the price is right. I never played Doom 3 so this might be the time to correct that.

    Pilars of Eternity of August 8.

    My biggest problem is going to be finding the time to play all these games.

    And the sequel is due before the end of the year, I think?

    Three Doom games and masses of content for so little money!
    Jaysus Doom 3 is pretty big too!
    And everything comes with extra content.
    Probably the best €20 spent since The Orange Box.

    I got Valve's entirely game library on Steam a few weeks ago for around €6. That's comfortably the best bargain I've ever got.
    €20 is just about fair for these games, especially aince Doom 1 & 2 have been widely available. They are 15-26 years old so companies need to be realistic with pricing for old ports.

    A pegi rating for doom 64 also has surfaced. Wahoo, loved that game!

    FYI anyone interested in the Doom & Doom 2 ports - you need a Bethesda account and an internet connection to play them, apparently.

    I did enjoy seeing stuff like this over the weekend, well done Bethesda you guys have had a hilarious last 12 months. It would be funnier if I didn't expect them to inevitably ruin DOOM & Wolfenstein too.

    Whoa. Bombshell.

    'The Outer Worlds' announced for Switch. That Microsoft partnership working wonders. Great news.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,348 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Wow. I'll get it on Gamepass anyway but if it's a decent port, I'd be very, very tempted to wait and get it on Switch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    It is being ported by Virtuos, it will probably be their biggest achievement to date if they can do a good job on it.

    Turok 2 coming August 9th. I loved the first one, so very keen to give this a whirl.

    I’m so happy with this. When this game was announced it was disappointed it wasn’t coming to switch. I put my hours into the switch while commuting so this is great news.
