Ended up buying Fast RMX in the end...
I'm weak, I know....
It looks gorgeous but is the same game as Fast Racing Neo.
Still no sign of World of Goo though...

So it is actually just a rename, or what?
I have Fast Racing NEO on the Wii U, so I'll know to avoid it if its the same game.
It seems a bit lousy that they just renamed the game to get more punters!

Star Lord

I'd read that they'd added a lot of extra stuff to the game, like extra tracks etc...

compared to the original Wii U version we almost doubled the content and added a lot of new visual effects and many general improvements

I'll have to stick with it so.
I don't know if the extra tracks in RMX are the Fast Racing Neo dlc or genuinely new material.
That dlc was included on the FRN physical release.
I'm in work so I can't check the track numbers compared to each other

In a vague attempt to justify my purchase, I can say that I didn't buy the Fast Racing NEO DLC.

Mainly though, RMX was listed at a pretty decent digital price and I'm much, much more likely to occasionally play it on the Switch in handheld mode.

CiDeRmAn

I bought it because I wanted a racing game on my new device and, while I own it already, I quite like it, though it is Wipeout/FZeroGX-lite... just 1 calorie, won't fill you up (on AG racing), so plenty of room left for Redout, which looks superior.

I'm humming and hawing about RMX, but I'll probably go for Shovel Knight. I know RMX won't get any play time once Mario Kart comes out next month.

CastorTroy

I see they've announced Time Attack and Friend Online Support for RMX coming soon

I suppose it's a bit like the good old PS1 days, you could own F1'97 and Wipeout 2097, both got plenty of play... as did Colin McRea, Rollcage, Driver and Grand Tiramisu!

Yeah, but I'm barely into driving games as it is. I have plenty to keep me going with Zelda for now anyway. I can't see myself wanting another game for a while.

Something really nice about Fast RMX is the HD Rumble effects, it feels pretty good, giving you an active tactile experience as you tear around the courses.

What's the latest on Splatoon 2? Can we still expect it in the summer? Hopefully sooner rather than later

When the first one came out, I *think* everyone who downloaded that beta got some money off the full game from the eShop. Might be worth giving it a go, either way.

CastorTroy

Yeah they did. but then I wanted the Squid Amiibo.

Must get back to Splatoon before the testfire starts and get familiar with the controls again. I'm sure they'll have the tutorial again for newbies

As most people know I Am Setsuna has a physical release in Asia with a Japanese sleeve but the retailer Heavy Arm Game is selling the game with an English lanuage sleeve. If your interested in the game on disc err cartridge with English sleeve get in touch with them.


I've allready paid for my copy release end of the month.

It's not on their website as it's out of stock the only way to get the game is to email them.

PC, PS4 and Xbox One in both physical and digital form, priced £29.99, £39.99 on Switch physical and digital, as well as a delay.

I'll be waiting for a price drop on this I think. No chance I'm paying extra just to have it on a new piece of hardware.

I'd only really play Rime on the go, gotta suck it up in my case. I could save the £10 but probably wouldn't get half the hours from it. Worth it for the portability IMO, but that's in my case.

Binding Of Issac on the 17th March!

I'd love it for portability too, but I'm not paying extra just because they want to take advantage of a new system with a small library. It just rubs me up the wrong way a little.
