Jackson

Yeah that's my interpretation. Even if it did hit his arm slightly: 1) his arm was tucked in and it was completely unintentional 2) the goal was ultimately scored with his hip 3) the decision on the pitch was 'goal', VAR should be used to overturn clear and obvious errors, this was definitely not clear or obvious

Ah, never played that mode. My apologies! There are some great modes in jackbox though, but yeah, "be as offensive as possible" isn't a great game premise!

Never a handball

Its not really like CAH. The cards in CAH don't require you to be clever or funny, if you deal a random card into each round it'd just as likely get chosen. I assume you played Fibbage? Its more like the board game Balderdash. You have to be creative to trick other players. Fair enough if you don't like it though!

Those persona voices! Aggghh, kill it with fire! Stage builder looks amazing though.

There's definitely enough information for us to fill in the blanks. We know he has the power to link minds across the universe, so he probably used that to communicate with Kylo Ren in private or something. Or maybe he influenced his dreams and subconscious. Either way it'd be a waste of time to see it. What we did get, fleshed out wonderfully, was the crucial moment where Luke lost Ren's trust.

The thing about backwards compatibility is it needs to be a blanket console emulation that covers all games. As soon as expired licenses and tricky corporate issues start preventing games working or (even worse) removing ones that originally worked, it ruins the point. I want security in knowing what I own will work and will always work. What Microsoft is doing is great but it's devastating that things like Blur, London 2012 Olympics etc etc are just left in licensing limbo.

Thanks for the thorough reply! I'm not too fussed about playing many PS4 exclusives, but I think I'll not bother with the hassle of switching consoles for now. I have a perfectly fine Xbox 360 tbh. I'm really impressed with Microsoft's willingness to enable backwards compatibility though, if they keep this up they've got me back next gen for sure!

Thinking of getting rid of my PS4 for an xbone and gamepass. I remember when they launched the console and they showed off multitasking, is it possible to play an app like Sky or Netflix whilst playing a game? With picture in picture?

Yep, great news! And I like the subtle way they've revealed it.

Change or evolve though? Because this looks like it has the exact same battle and catching mechanics and the exact same way of interacting with the world as the now over 20 years old first game. It should surely have fights that look as cool as Pokémon stadium (an N64 game) at the very least? Sounds like you'll love the game as it is, but there's undeniably a lot of unfulfilled potential with the franchise. I honestly don't care and won't post in here again as it clearly winds people up to be a bit negative, but my first thoughts are "at least that's £40 saved".

As a non fan I don't see any reason to start caring about the series with this, looks so conservative, another reskin with the same mechanics. I was kind of hopeful it'd be a fresh approach to a Pokémon game.

Looks great, I have the expansion ready to go, it was hard enough getting 6 for the base game though, I'm jealous!

I second the snipperclips recommendation, it has no time limits and you can just mess around with it, great fun.
