Yeah it's staggering. I hope it is, cause Borderlands 3 has been on my list for a while.

[Bobfoc]

Of the ones I don't have, there are only a couple on that list I'm not really interested in. I'll claim them anyway if they're free.

[The Lusophone]

We'll find out in just under 2 and half hours if Dying Light is in there - it currently has Pillars of Eternity and Tyranny - Gold Edition as free games.

Some of that sounds neat in the way it's evolving the game a bit and not just being a carbon copy of L4D2 which they could have easily done. But the stuff like the card and weapon system just makes me a bit worried about DLC/loot boxes.

Hypothetical question: are there region locks on jailbroken systems? Like would a Japanese wrestling game work on a modded PS3 for example? Purely hypothetical.

[Bobfoc]

Probably. I think that's a big reason a lot of people fiddle with their consoles.

[Meacon Keaton]

Thank you for your answer to my hypothetical question.

[Bobfoc]

Are those games actually good wrestling games or is the appeal just in the zaniness?

[Meacon Keaton]

In the first fifteen seconds of that video I saw a guy climb a cage and fall off with no one around him, so I’m gonna say probably not good.

It's basically purely fun for the zaniness.

[Krabby]

I've got the one on my phone, booking revolution, it is a ton of fun and super zany. I played it a bunch while we were in the hospital waiting for my lil daughter to be born haha.

Remember that time we were playing with Ellis and I think Maxx and it was down to me and you at the final part when the tank rolled in and then I left you behind? Good times.

Okay so, hear me out.

I think these MDickie games are legitimately some of the best wrestling games ever made. Not because they look good, not because they are technical masterpieces, but because absolutely every time I play one of them I have a stupidly good time.

For the previous game, people make save edits with proper federation and character names and the like - but it all has to live inside the world of this game made by one absolute nutter. That guy fell off the cage because randomly that happens when you're climbing things. The earlier games had explosions and people losing limbs mid-match and still carrying on like nothing happened, just because. You'll be playing and Doink The Clown will show up backstage and offer to sell you steroids so you can bulk up and if you say no, he'll hold it against you like you stole money from his dying mother. Nothing makes sense, ever - and the career mode is god damn beautiful for it.
