Really hope they update the game adding new courses. Noticed people are aggressive as f**k now the game has been figured out and starting to push each other off the course LOLAngry

Not sure they'll add levels as it's called Fall Guys Season 1, I'd expect new levels in a 2nd game tbh.

Yep some people are f**kers for grabbing you, it's worse than a traveller wedding!

Fall Guys season 2 coming out in October Clap

Medieval times inspired new courses. Races with drawbridges and a Castle team game where you build blocks first team to escape.

Most all-time downloaded game on PS4 and top #5 on PC Shocked

Still play megadrive version of 1 and 2 on my retron 5 quite a bit. One of my favourite series ever. They are much more enjoyable in 2 player though.
 
Haven't played 4 yet. Just haven't had the time.
 
Never had Streets of Rage but did play it in friends. But did have Golden Axe which was pretty much the same thing.

Never bought an Xbox before but £250 for a lite version of the next-gen console screams value for money.

The only drawbacks appear to be resolution cap at 1440p and no disc drive atm.

Fairly good value I must admit. Will probably go for the PS5 though, still awaiting details.

Its a nice price but has smaller memory too so wonder as able to save as much to it which might be an issue when it also has no fisc drive so all games must be downloaded

I see the new PS5 also has a Digital edition, handy option, but would really need decent internet for it to be beneficial.

I'm a fan of these lite options. 

I'd only buy a PS/Xbox for Fifa and UFC games, saves me forking out £450 + 49.99 for each game.

Don't think the PS5 digital is Lite as such. It still has all the same specs as the main PS5 just no disk drive.

Personally I think the digital version is a rip off. £110 extra than the Xbox counterpart and the games on the PS store are typically priced at £59.99, it adds up quick.

People in the UK can get around having to own games by subscribing to Boomerang which is effectively an Online Blockbusters but with no disc tray it becomes a non-option also

The processor etc in ps5 digital edition is a lot better than its xbox counterpart. Really the ps5 digital console is the exact same thing as the ps5 just without the disk tray
