 The Friday letters page is very glad games like Zelda and Baldur's Gate 3 are selling well, as one reader ponders Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch. To join in with the discussions yourself email gamecentral@metro.co.uk Pretty good idea While the PS5 Pro is controversial for lots of reasonable reasons, I don't think anyone has any beef with the idea of a PS5 Slim, since it isn't more powerful and doesn't change how the games run. So I hope it does come out this year, because I still haven't got a PlayStation 5 and was contemplating getting one for Christmas. Although I really wish Sony would have a proper showcase beforehand, so I can get an idea for what they've got coming up next year and beyond. All this talk of games being delayed is kind of unnerving when they still won't say what they are. Although if that's code for, 'We've realised the whole live service push wasn't a good idea' I'm all for it. I just hope the Slim looks less… ugly than the current version. That description really didn't explain anything and yet I got the impression it's still going to be following the same basic design. If the alternative is something as clunky and ugly as that then just do a boring black box like usual. It might be dull but at least it's not embarrassing. Corso Easy money It's unlikely I'll get round to playing it myself this year, but I'm glad to see Baldur's Gate 3 selling so well. Along with Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom I'm hoping it shows developers that if you just make a good game, and don't try to rip off your customers with microtransactions, etc. them people will quite literally buy into what you're doing. drlowdon Ahead of yourself After seeing the Reptile, Ashrah, and Havik video for Mortal Kombat 12 (which is what it is, Ed Boon!) I must confess to feeling the hype… a little. My only option, being just a poor boy from a poor family – spare me my life from this monstrosity – is the Switch version.
