First person shooters on a console
Hey there. I decided to treat myself to a PlayStation 4 in the Xmas sales. Historically I've always been a PC gamer, but with a family I can no longer find the space to put a PC, so decided on the PlayStation. However, I'm so used to a keyboard and mouse for gaming that a First person shooter on a console just feels…
Do Skylanders giants work with swap force or other skylanders games?
I bought my son the Skylanders giants portal, game and figures for Christmas for xbox 360. He has about a dozen figures and today completed the game. I would now like to get him another skylanders game. If I bought him just the swap force game would that work with the figures and portal he already has? Or do any of the…

PS4 Games
(Originally posted in the techie thread as didn't know there was a separate gaming one) Just treated myself to a PS4 for Xmas & wondered if anyone coulf recommend any decent games? GTA 5 & The Last Of Us came with the console & i've ordered Tomb Raider Definitive Edition from Amazon. Also, any decent places to buy games…
Sims 4
We are in a pickle with the Sims4 game that the kids got for Christmas. On Christmas mooring there was no-one available to help them set it up so they managed to sort it themselves. However they can't remember the username or the password they used to set it up (cue lots of arguing between them) and the email they linked…
Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut vs Divinity: Original Sin
Both on sale on steam. Both very very well regarded. I'm not a huge fan of turn based combat, i'm much more a huge fan of the pause function play you get with baldur's gate and such. I wanted to buy pillars of eternity but it's not out yet and i'll probably get Arklash legacy which is an indie game along the same lines but…
Amazon return -wrong console?
Hi We got 2 games from an old relative on the wrong console and I know he ordered from amazon but I would rather not tell him as he will be upset and feel stupid. Is there anyway to tell Amazon his account and do a return without him knowing or would we need some type of proof of purchase? They are £40 games so probs need…
PSN and XBOX down?
So what was actually going on over christmas with all this hacking business?
Mouseable Chaos Engine

Also - anyone know where I can get a playable version of Elvira - Jaws of Cerberus? I did have one but the copy protection thing didn't work! (Should have kept the old manual and wheel :eek:) On the…
Best Wii U games?
Hi there, We've bought the kids a Wii U for Christmas, the Mario Kart pack. Are there any other games people can recommend for the Wii U, as we don't want to give them just the one game. Kids are aged 10 & 13 if that helps (girls). Thanks in advance.

sorry this is probably a silly question but I have not idea how this works and need someone to explain in simple language :o My seven year old keeps asking for the minecraft update (apparently you can play in stampy's world in the tutorial). He has minecraft on a disc for the xbox 360, is it even possible to update a disc…
