    I’m really looking forward to stray where you play as a cat ? I know it’s not one of the main titles but I love cats

    I honestly agree with you @t0nkys!! That game looks like so much fun, I can't wait to roam around as a kitty :D

    Also looking forward to the Harry Potter one, I just hope they’ve made it to a good standard.

    Again I'm exactly the same @t0nkys, I grew up with Harry Potter and I love the series so much. It's needed a game like this one.

    I'm gutted that we have to wait another year for it to be honest.

    Does anybody still play World of Warcraft?

    I’m looking forward to the new expansion pack that is coming out next week. :)

    I don't and have never played it @66Mustang I'm sorry to say. 

    What does the expansion pack include?

    @Ross_Scope it’s kind of hard to explain to someone who doesn’t know the game but it is kind of a big deal - they only bring one out every couple of years. :smiley:

    Oh wow @66Mustang, yeah I can imagine it is a big deal! is it a free expansion?

    No it costs money, sadly, but it’s like a new game if that makes sense. With most games you have to buy a new one every year but with WoW they just add new content to the existing one and make you pay for that instead. They also charge a monthly subscription fee which thinking about it doing both is a bit cheeky!

    That said the game does have a system where you can get someone else to pay for your subscription in exchange for giving them some in-game money. Basically one person has real money and wants game money and another person may be rich on the game but not in real life and it matches them together. I like making money in-game so I have quite a bit of it and I pay for everything out of my game currency :smiley:

    That's a great feature actually @66Mustang, it kind of makes all those points you earn in game worth it. 

    I've not heard of a game implementing that sort of system in the past.

    It’s really a win-win-win as it makes money for the developers, it means those without real money can pay for stuff, and those with real money who are lazy can buy in-game progress. :)

    All bases covered there @66Mustang, I'm surprised more games don't adopt that hybrid method to be honest.

    Hello my fellow video game fans

    What are we all playing at the moment?

    I spent most of last night playing (and getting good achievements on) Tetris Effect Connected and Star Renegades on Xbox.

    I've been playing New Super Mario Bros. on my old Nintendo DSi whilst I decide whether or not to buy some form of console!

    Nice nice @MrAllen1976, I'm glad you're getting really good at it! Is it an online game, similar to the Tetris that's on the Switch?

    Blimey, very retro @Tori_Scope! or is it? Is the DS old enough to be classed as retro now? 

    Either way, awesome choice, me and my partner have Super Mario Galaxy to play together on the Switch at some point, it's a remastered version of the classic Wii game.

    I do have the original DS, which I reckon is retro by now @Ross_Scope :D Not sure about the DSi though, it does have a front camera after all...

    I wouldn't know, my 12 year old Nephew has a Switch but I've never actually played one.

    Well, there's a Tetris game on the Switch where you play online against others in a battle royal type thing. You can see gameplay here.
