Anticipating: May/June 2018

[Neon Ignition]

The run up to E3 delivers quite a few games towards the front end before things look set to dramatically dry up over summertime.

Which games are you aiming to pick up both on and off this list?

DK Tropical Freeze
Mario Tennis Aces
Hyrule Warriors
OnRush

[MartyG]

Lean month, might have a bite at Vampyr though.

[teddymeow]

Also, no SF Anthology on this list.

[Cepp]

I was going to say no more games but Mario Tennis Aces looks really fun.

Pile of ****e, just like most months these days.*



























*Though to be fair I have no idea what loads of them are or what system they're on.

This with the exception of Dark Souls Remaster that I’ve already played numerous times. I’m probably more excited about having 1, 2, 3 and Bloodborne all together in my FromSoftware folder than anything else, but I will get the platinum for a second time. Also the Street Fighter Collection. I will play Hyper Fighting and Zero 2 to death.

I’m an old man too now, and I hate games. Jaja.

Sweet, a month where I have no interest in buying anything!

Only messing.

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary
Dragon's Crown Pro

That's it for me.

Street Fighter?

[endo]

Definitely Street Fighter Collection - got a preorder in. And possibly Dark Souls if I can be arsed. I anticipate most of May, and probably most of the summer, being spent on Third Strike online. As long as it doesn't suck, obvs.

[Finsbury Girl]

A man can never have too much Dark Souls!

Have to say I'm hugely looking forward to Mario Tennis and Detroit. The latter I've been looking forward to since being intrigued by the initial 'Kara' reveal 5 or 6 years ago. The former I recently watched videos of and immediately became excited about - years since I've played a tennis game, and this looks like a really good one. Knockabout fun with some depth, a single player focus and some lovely graphics.

I'd also like to grab DS Remastered after popping my DS cherry with the third game last year and loving every second. Just can't decide whether to go for PS4 or Switch.

[Neon Ignition]

It's very light for me too, good for the backlog. Detroit isn't something I'm hyped for, it's more on the list for me out due to past form. Same with Vampyr but other than that there's an obscene level of leaning on ports and remasters there making for easy misses.

I'm not bothering with SF Collection though, if it had been done properly I'd have likely been swayed but if it was based on the expanded home versions instead of missing stuff

[J0e Musashi]

SF Collection has been done properly.

I totally missed Vampyr. I've been interested in that for ages now. I'll be buying that. Three games in one month. How obscene.

[Nu-Eclipse]

SF Collection has been done properly.

Not if you're Japanese it hasn't. They're getting the "World" versions of the ROMs like everybody else.
