To add to this: they appear to be being delisted from 23rd October, so if you want them, get them now! Not sure why they're removing them from digital stores, but this is shit and shouldn't keep happening.

The surprisingly well received Leisure Suit Larry games are currently a huge 98% off on the Switch eShop at the moment, meaning you can pick them up for mere 89p apiece. I can't imagine the humour will have my sides splitting, but they appear to be well made point and click adventures, so I'm in!

Jesus. It's one of the best things you can do. I'm devastated my kids don't want bedtime stories any more. Joke or not (which he's claiming it is), what a dick.

BLACK TOAD by TOM HERRINGTON: Clearly not based on a true story, but entertaining nonetheless. A boy goes missing in 1990s rural Cornwall. 30 years later someone starts investigating that disappearance. A dark, twisty tale that, I think, really delivers on its promise. Enjoyed this one.

I wish they would make more of these.

I don't block people whose views are not perfectly aligned with mine. I block arseholes. And it seems like there are an ever increasing amount on here making their way over from Twitter. Still, it was good whilst it lasted.

Man, we're fucked when Kane retires. We need to win the next Euros or we can forget it for the next few tournaments.

That was one of the best own goals I've ever seen. Outstanding. 😂 #ENGvCZE

Try putting a thin scraping of Marmite on your toast next time you have beans on toast. You're welcome. If you don't like Marmite, grow up mate.

I first heard this in a documentary about the Moog synthesiser. It remains one of my favourite ever pieces of music. It's brilliant. youtu.be/Z-A_WE81-aE

No. Sundays were so boring as a kid. They also need to scrap the archaic no football on TV at 3pm on a Saturday rule.

Happy birthday! I noticed those Mordor games shadowdrop the other day at half price. Wondered whether to get the first one as I've never played them.

The first NIN album I owned. First listen I was thinking this doesn't sound like anything I've ever heard. Incredible album.

I'm hoping it comes to Switch 2, I never have time to play on PS5 any more. I've played 0, K1, K2 and 3 before on Playstation but wanted to replay the whole series on Switch 2 so hoping they all come eventually. No reason they couldn't, so hopefully!

The Afghan Whigs - a band name I've heard for years and never listened to until @ratsoalbion.bsky.social recommended them on last month's @caneandrinse.com Patreon show. This is great! Always nice to find a new (old) band with a massive back catalogue to get through!

Had the same with a PS5 for kids Christmas a couple of years back. Was showing as at the depot then just vanished. No accountability, just a "sorry, we don't know where it is". Obviously stolen! I was sent another from the place I bought it, but someone got a free console 😡

You can't take a moral high ground when you are indulging in the exact same, friend. You're really not fooling anyone with this bizarre persona you seem to be adopting. So carry on with your twee kisses and pretending to be above it all. Whatever it takes to get from one miserable moment to the next

Have you ever stopped to wonder if the problem lies with you and not... *looks around* ...everyone else?

This makes no sense at all. I wasn't crying. I was calling you boring, because you are. 👍

30 odd years back my dad used to be annoyed that when he was replacing his LPs with CDs a lot of the time they were stereo mixes of mono albums, and they weren't the same.

And now you are sad they've already said they'll never make a sequel? Or even just another totally different story in a similar style? 😔

Michael Sheen: "I have no idea what I'm walking in to. I'm a huge fan of this game". Yeah, probably got a bit of an idea what you're walking into then, don't you Michael. #traitors #celebritytraitors

THE ONLY GOOD INDIANS by STEPHEN GRAHAM JONES: Four native American friends slaughter a herd of elk. Ten years later, very bad things happen. Good book. Starts off interesting enough but when it turns, it gets very dark, very fast.

Please bring Psychonauts 1 and 2 to Switch 2. (And this, too).

Alex⁷⁹ @alex79.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I've recently finished it on Switch but trying to decide whether to do a full play through of the game again or just the DLC which I'd not touched yet. I got kind of a bad ending so tempted to do the whole thing again...

My ten year old just asked me if I'm old enough to have seen Rooney play for England. FFS. He was completely incredulous when I told him that yes, obviously I did. He followed it up with, "even Beckham as well!?"

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: TURTLES IN TIME (Arcade on Switch 2): Enjoyed running through this, it's not as long as I seem to remember it. Still love the Turtles arcade games, even if they're objectively not the best examples of the genre.
