While you're there can you just write "New Midnight Club Game" on a few whiteboards to remind them?

You've got me thinking - Axeman's Folly could be Irn-Bru, Wizard's Mind Bomb could be Monster Energy Zero, and Dwarven Stout could be some kind of root beer, perhaps?

I don't know if that's a rhetorical request, but I found this a while ago thanks to NerdCubed: store.steampowered.com/app/2178590/...

Off-the-cuff, reaction answer: Probably a three-way tie between NFSU2, Timesplitters 2 and Advance Wars 2.

Older games that i'm kicking myself for not trying up until a few years ago? Ace Combat, Flatout UC, RCTW & Medievil are all good shouts

Great, Jay's been corrupted by whatever's on Local58. /s

Timesplitters
Saints Row (the first two, before it went wacky)
Midnight Club.

Couch-co-op focused timetravelling shooter with goldeneye DNA, a rival to GTA, and a rival to NFS's lackluster attempts of late, what's not to like?

I only found Wreckfest on the play store through sheer blind luck, I'd heard about Downwell, Retro City Rampage and Dead Cells through others.

But yeah, Play Store still seems to think I'm after freemium gacha instead of good stuff I don't mind paying a few quid for.

Bring it on. I'm fed up with superhero saturation - I'd certainly play as Pt1 Speedwagon, Star Platinum, Bruno and maybe Polnareff.

Course, I'd still kill for Red Dwarf or H2G2 stuff in Fortnite, but I guess i'm at least 30 years too late on that front.

Yep, but finding ones that aren't free to play garbage is an uphill battle and then some.

I'm presuming you know about Mario Kart Double Dash, Kirby Air Ride and F-Zero. You might also like Road Trip/Gadget Racers/Choro Q, and there's a few other oddball ones like R Racing Evolution. Most of the great racing games on 6th gen consoles skipped the Gamecube though.

Most people say both NFS Underground games, Most Wanted 2005 and Carbon are good ones. Hot Pursuit 2's pretty good but a different tone to the others.

As for other racing games - Auto Modellista feels like an anime Gran Turismo, and XGRA feels like MotoGP in the near future with weapons.

I'm the opposite - I got taught to solder by my Dad, and then I got into the megadrive and PS1 when they were still recent.

One of my previous cats, Enzo...would go absolutely MAD for Brussel Sprouts, of all things. He'd ignore the roast chicken or ham or beef, and steal them off your plate!

TimeSplitters Future Perfect's train level. It's got atmosphere, humor and intensity.

I've always liked the Daihatsu Copen for small-and-round-ness
