Two thirds of the list down. Two ENTIRE thirds, now in the past. But with a final third starting THIS strongly, we hope your tears are short-lived.
Minty makes friends with a Kung Fu bear, Jonathan wraps up Xenoblade Chronicles with a gaggle of Nopon tag-alongs, and Chris… moves house?
Is Summer in Mara any cop? How many levels of Doom 64 did Minty get through this week? Is there any chance whatsoever that Chris will get through the first Last of Us?
Then let a teenage Minty sell you on the outrageously strong Golden Sun; a single-digit Chris talk up a weekend trip to soft play to leap in ball pits and play The Simpsons Arcade Game; and a full blown adult man, one Jonathan A Dunn, wax lyrical about Rise of the Tomb Raider.
Cosy couches! Pat Sharp! Akimbo pistols! They're all here.
