Welcome back, potential spacefarers, to a Star Wars Outlaws Tuesday of (inter)stellar bargains. Word is, it’s pretty decent; my learned local colleague 7’ed it, and we’re orbiting a 77 on Metacritic. Speaking personally, I clocked it and instantly felt Force Pulled back into reloading for a side activities mop up. When you’re as time poor as I am, that result is rarer than Endorian hen’s teeth.

In retro news, I’m celebrating the 15th birthday of Punch-Out!!, a knockout of a revival that socked well above its weight on Wii. I have vivid memories of having to import an EU version of this (due to a weird delay for the Aussie market) in order to write the first in-magazine player’s guide for this region. Ultimately, Little Mac’s slugfest has aged remarkably well, thanks to comical cel-shade visuals, an underloved two-player mode, and timeless puzzle-pugilist gameplay. Pound for pound, it’s a perfect contender for a Switch remastering, Nintendo.

When you’re clocked so hard and so fast, you suspect an orbiting space laser is to blame.Table of ContentsNintendo SwitchPCXboxPlayStationLEGOThe Weekly Top 10Nice Savings for Nintendo Switch

BioShock: The Collection

A collection of two brilliant games (and one okay one) that were genre definingly awesome. The original BioShock in particular has one of those stories that I wish I could surgically remove from my brain so I could re-experience it again.

PS5 Portal Remote Player

The PlayStation Portal is a device that does what it’s intended to do remarkably well. In spite of a few baffling omissions from its design, its bright screen, full DualSense features, and ease of set up and use made me turn from skeptic to fan.
