I've just ordered Gran Turismo 7 and Forspoken together for £45 at ShopTo. I've never purchased a Gran Turismo game before because I've never hugely been in to sim racing, but after recently trying out Forza Motorsport on Game Pass my opinion has changed and I don't own a racing game for PS5. As for Forspoken, it's got to be worth £12 surely!

I also got Forspoken for €15.

Bargain! Was definitely worth holding off this one at launch. I enjoyed the demo, just not enough to buy it at full price. Couldn't turn it down for this...I only paid £2 less for my lunch today.

Your going to love GT

You have to do 2hours of slow going stuff but then multiplayer unlocks. Your in heaven

One player is great too
Lots to do.

Only buy stuff if you absolutely need it because it all unlocks naturally anyway

Kurisu13d ago

Thanks! Look forward to giving it a blast.

As I said. It'll be top until Xmas now

Still surprised that this game wasn't given a GOTY nomination at TGA, but it certainly doesn't need a GOTY nomination to help it sell.

Super Mario RPG review - ChristCenteredGamer

CCG writes - "I have to say, the original game was a fond cornerstone of my childhood, and this remake brought back some very fond memories. I cannot recommend this game any higher, it is worth its purchase price and remains a lovable classic. Morally, it's suitable for almost any age and nothing I'd be afraid to get a child as a gift. "

The Most Overlooked Game of 2023 Deserves a Second Chance

In a year of critically-acclaimed titles Forspoken has faded into the background, but it fills a niche that has vanished in gaming, and deserves a second look.

it wasn't overlooked at all
people just quickly looked away

Exactly, tons of people were lookiing hard at this game, myself included. But the final product was not it. The level design, mission design and especially writing was just painful to experience. I still want to try it as I enjoyed the gameplay in the demo, but not over like $15

Hmm...I never bothered to look. One trailer was enough to know it wasn't for me.

You literally proved what a lot of people are saying about talking out of your arse. 😂

The final product is painful to experience, yet you’ve only played the demo which you enjoyed.

This may be hard to believe but there's these little known websites called YouTube and Twitch where you can watch complete playthroughs of videogames. You should check it out sometime.

I think I got about two thirds of the way into the game, maybe a little bit more. Only reason I was playing it was there was no other game released at the time I was interested in so I gave it a go. The start is so bad, story-telling and gameplay-wise. Everyone knows the dialogue is horrible, I think it's mostly the writing and repetition rather than the execution. It did become a bit more fun about one third way into the game but I wouldn't recommend it even after the updates and in hindsight feels like I wasted my time playing it.

I have a good mind to try out forspoken and give it a chance. I've been hearing good things about it ever since they fixed the frame rate on ps5. And of course, if it's being hated on on N4g , then I know for a fact it's a pretty good game. Can't wait to try forspoken

It wasn't overlooked.
It got well deserved criticism and this year has been filled with higher quality games from Alan Wake to SpiderMan and Baldur's Gate.

I played it and enjoyed it for the price I paid on sale but it was firmly average.
