£2 price drop since yesterday to counter The Game Collection's sale price.
Yooka-Laylee is an all-new open-world platformer from genre veterans Playtonic!
Explore huge, beautiful worlds, meet (and beat) an unforgettable cast of characters and horde a vault-load of shiny collectibles as buddy-duo Yooka (the green one) and Laylee (the wisecracking bat with the big nose) embark on an epic adventure to thwart corporate creep Capital B and his devious scheme to absorb all the world's books… and convert them into pure profit!
Using their arsenal of special moves, our heroes will tackle a huge variety of puzzles and platforming challenges in their search for Pagies, the golden bounty used to unlock - and expand - stunning new worlds, each jammed to the gills with oddball characters, hulking bosses, minecart challenges, arcade games, quiz shows, multiplayer games… and much more!

Good price, but I can see it doing a Rare Replay and be down to £15 in a few weeks/months :stuck_out_tongue: Torn - I really want to play this but looking at my pile of shame right now I don't think that would happen anytime soon :laughing:

Heat added, though Jim Sterling's review wasn't too kind. Apparently the camera and controls are a pain.
had no problem with the controls and the camera is no worse than most other platformers!
no way is it as bad as his review makes it out to be, a classic not by a long shot but not an awful game that deserves 2/10, . a good solid 6.5/ 7

Jim Sterling probably played the game before Playtonic released a patch that improves the camera.

he was due to appear in the game as a voice for a character but was removed, could have something to do with that score lol.

Maybe it's one of those Marmite kinda games. I'm not into games where you have to collect a load of stuff but glad you enjoyed it.

Wish the Switch version release date would be announced soon. I'm so tempted to cave in and get it on Xb1...

expect it to be the £40 mark on switch, so would get for XB1 unless you really want the switch version

Hmmm that's true. Thanks, didn't think about that. Although it's going to be download only, so no inflated Switch cart price

Steadily dropping price, unless you really want to might as well hold off a few months. Feels like they printed a lot of copies expecting a huge hit then the reviews were not exactly great and sales likewise. This is the kind of title that will drop rapidly. What were the preorders at like £27? And it's been out less than 3 weeks and already down more than 20%

Still doesn't mean it will be that much cheaper, right now on the Playstation store it's £34.99.
Only go switch if you want it for the portable aspect IMO.

Could be, but a 2 to me is a game that is unplayable with no redeeming features which this is not

Feels a little rushed to me and lacks "something" compared to the original Banjos but at this price it's defo worth a play through.

Fully want this, but I'm in the 'it'll come down some more' camp. Heat though :smiley:
