Grab a console for those who dont have one. All the big games are coming out now, starting with Zelda Wind Waker HD on Oct 5. Donkey King Country, Mario 3D, Mario Kart, Smash Bros all coming out in the next few months.

Half price everything Wii U at Dick Smith. Consoles, games, accessories. GET ON IT!

Thanks for the Tip
I've been wanting to grab some new games for my Wii U

I agree that people should buy one (if they can find one!), but you're dreaming if you think Smash Bros will be out in the next few months!
My bet is even Mario Kart will be delayed to mid-2014.

For those looking, Livingston Dick Smith appeared to have a basic bundle last night, but it was marked at the original price. I was looking for a Classic Controller Pro but had no luck. All their discounted games are in a bin near the front windows, nothing of worth to me unfortunately!

Just finished GTA V main story today. Didn't feel as climatic as other final missions on other GTA games. Though as a whole it was bloody enjoyable and more engrossing that GTA IV.

Yup, omega metro beat me to it. And i'm pretty certain hursticon is almost done.

I completed it the other night too. Didn't mind the ending. Although i'm yet to try out the other endings. Now the long task of finding all collectables and getting 100% before the online is released next week.

Well i did say months, not years I hope a new Zelda is released within the next 12 months, possibly before Xmas next year. Wind Waker will keep me busy in between long stints of GTA Online. I'll definitely be picking up Mario 3D, DKC, and Mario Kart. I'm not big on fighting games so i'll give Smash Bros a miss.

Bloody well done guys!, it's a game you can easily sink a lot of time into though huh?
Hehe, been a joint effort between my Brother & I, more so him than I though

It's got to be said though that this game really is strides beyond GTA IV, just the characterisation alone I feel is far better executed this time around & the set pieces for some of the crazier missions are simply jaw dropping!
Trevor is easily the funniest bastard in a GTA game to-date for me!

Now the long task of finding all collectables and getting 100% before the online is released next week.

I'm actually looking forward to this stage.
I've obtained all the Submarine pieces (The diving controls can be very frustrating at times ) so I think I'll move onto the Chemical Waste barrels next but MAN is the Submarine painfully slow!


Have any of you guys just taken a slow drive, maybe even a walk, around the map yet? - Truly, what the Rockstar team over in Scotland have achieved is a thing of beauty!

Well that's it for Mass Effect 2.... now on to #3!

My nine-year-old has just started ME2: quite interesting seeing how his interactions play out differently than mine because of what he did in ME 1.

F'rinstance-
Me: "Now you can talk to the Council and be made a Spectre again"
Son: "....I let them die in the first one".
