"Savygamer"?

Is that meant to be some kind of not-very-good pun on saving money, or did they really grab a domain name and set up a website without bothering to check up how to spell the word "savvy" first?

Because, if the latter, that's not really being very savvy at all, is it?

I think it was supposed to be a memorable url based on "save-ey" and then people pointed out the savvy connection.

Lewie mistyped savvy into a domain name registration form when he was just getting started. It hasn't done him any harm at all. Now he's running a very successful and very helpful website, and I can confirm he doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks about the name. And he's a very savvy guy.

:D

My Vita is secondhand, but I did inspect it in the shop before parting with my cash.

The previous owner hadn't done a complete wipe, so I had to do that before putting my details on it.

So TxK is complete? Does that mean it's a week of relaxing before diving into a PS4 version? :)

Nah .. NO RELAX !

TxK is "content complete" sure which means "this is what it is".

BUT

Now it's part "be sure there are no bugs and EVERYTHING is TCRs compliant" which is not super trivial.

Also final adjustments & such.

It's been FAR really FAR from relaxing so far all the hoops and loops to get the PEGI rating, which now we are still waiting to get but keep an eye ( once we'll get it ) to some interesting blog entry about it because the story is .. crazy .. (*)

A week of relaxing ?

Well probably/surely during xmas, but not now 8)

Understatement ?

I said "not super trivial" which means "all the opposite of that".

That's what he said. He was agreeing with you.

So "done" means "content complete", not "walk away and wait". Got it. :)

Ah, so tightening up the graphics then... ;)

What's amazing with Llamasoft games is they look absolutely stunning from the earliest of screenshots. Then the first video comes out followed by 8O . Lastly any needed piece of kit gets ordered, delivered, and where's my damn copy because this shiny new PS Vita is dying to play?!? :D

As above, I was agreeing with you. You should have said "biggest ball ache in the history of games development". That would have been *far* more appropriate than "not super trivial"!

I've done TCR stuff. I feel your pain...

[edit] - this labyrinth or documents see this, see that, refer to the other one, go and look into that one, link back to the other one/etc. .. has nothing to envy to some Kafka plots
