Currently there is a free Street Fighter game, as well as Max Payne 3 for ?3.75 (or something) and "Bully" for ?3, which I'd always thought about trying, so for that money I'm in.

Am giving Godus a go, the crowd funded 'revolutionary' god game promised by conceptual gaming guru Peter Molyneux.

After studiously avoiding the micro-transactions *desperate sigh...aaah it's free* my conclusion was it is a much prettier version of populous with terrible control issues and no fun.


Still, I'll pick it up every now and then to see what prettiness my mortals will produce, it *is* very pretty, though you have to destroy all that prettiness to make a go of it, but hey.


Tut tut Peter, we expect better from you.

is it as pretty as The Vanishing of Ethan Carter?


No, no it's not


I always like Pete M - but I've never enjoyed a single game of his really. I bought them, I played them - but I always felt I was doing it because I was told they were good


Fable is a beautiful world but did I enjoy playing it? I feel bad for not being more enthusiastic

he made populous, syndicate, black & White, the Fable games, Dungeon Keeper, Theme Park.


I loved populous back then, like sj i didn't really take to black & white as much as i wanted to, I really enjoyed Dungeon Keeper, amd syndicate was pretty good.


ANd yeah, Fable was good. A little unsatisfactory and the cool ideas didn't translate to any real point in the game, but they were still fun.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
