All Things Video Games & Game Reviews Part II (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=294504)

The game is really good so far.

A lot of the same from Zero Dawn, which I was OK with. This one has more weapons and gear by far.

Spoiler!

I. LOVE ncaa 25
It’s got its warts etc but man it’s so mf fun. Especially once you learn pass protection concepts and coverages etc I went down a football 101 rabbit hole and I’ve been enjoying the **** out of it. It’s hard. And it’s great. It makes the moments when you call the right play and the defense plays the coverage you were expecting and you have pass pro set up and let it rip. So rewarding.

IMO of course

Anyone interested in the Silent Hill 2 remake? Just curious of thoughts on this. Seems like they are remaking so many older games now a days.

Do you like this current trend? :hmmm:

I am very much looking forward to it. I'm a big time Silent Hill fan. I remember getting the first one on my birthday in 1999. At first I thought it was a Resident Evil wannabe, but I quickly came to love it.

I don't know if the remake of SH2 will be good or shitty. From what I've seen, it could go either way. I'm sure there will be some things that I don't like since I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to these games. I just wish they would remaster the originals and release them on the PS store. Seems like an easy cash grab.

At this point I’ve completed every salvage contract, damn near every side quest, climbed all those dumb ass signal towers, and only have one of the black boxes and survey drones left to find.

I will probably wrap up the main storyline here within the next week or so.

Yeah I'm in it now but in the beginning right after your first encounter with Beta, but the open world, hunting, upgrading, the verticality with the new shield, just Breath of the Wild levels of enjoyment and just getting lost in the world. I don't have alot of time to play but when I do on my new 4k computer monitor with 4090 card, is exceptional. I felt underpowered at first, like egregiously so, but once I figured out where the valor and three arrow draw were at, it instantly became pretty awesome, step by step in line with Zero Dawn, but I feel the story so far is much more engaging off the bat and less mysterious and ambiguous. Seeing you being able to fly on Glinthawks in social media videos can't wait for that to open up, also my breath underwater doesn't last nearly long enough so looking forward to when I get an item that lets me hold my breath underwater so I can explore that as well.

So I was actually closer to the end than I anticipated and was able to finish it last night. I enjoyed the open world, crafting, etc. like you say. The customization and upgrading of the gear was a highlight. I loved going to the top of the highest mountains and parachuting off - some pretty amazing views.

I ended up liking the story for Zero Dawn a bit more but this one was definitely interesting as well.

I’ll spoiler tag this for you just in case, though I don’t think it’s super spoilery. It’s more so advice about some of the stuff you just mentioned.

Spoiler!

Gamechanger.

To this day, probably my favorite console experience. SNES and SEGA Genesis anyway.

Super Mario World, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter II, Sonic, A Link to the Past, Yoshi’s Island, Tetris (and Dr Mario), Donkey Kong Country, NBA Jam, Turtles in Time.. man. Those were the days.
