Hey all, you know the deal...
The other thread hit over 1,000 posts and we have server issues when that shit happens so here she be, a fancy new mega thread.

Anyway, just a quick rundown.

Post anything and everything gaming in here. Console games, handheld/mobile games or PC.

Playing something you love or maybe hate? Find a hidden gem on Steam? Let us know via a review. Try to make sure you give a good rundown on it. Graphics, sound, storyline, overall gameplay and replayability. Let's keep it at a 1-10 scale.

Thanks to all that left me awesome rep comments/posts and even pm's thanking me for the many reviews I wrote.
Just an FYI, developers do read our comments in here I guess. CD Projekt Red (of Witcher 3) was one that stopped by.

Anyway, thanks all for your input and as always, no griefing.

To what though? I mean every gun feels about the same and you never feel like a hero, just a small spoke in the wheel. Did they change something?

Anyone play Mario kart on switch?

Stryker · 06-26-2019, 07:55 AM

Well after finally being burnt out on Battlefield I, I played through Call of Duty Modern Warfare remastered meh. I am now into Wolfenstein the New Order. I love this game and cannot believe that I did not play it when it came out! I have The Old Blood and The New Colossus as well. Also played through Uncharted 4 The Lost Legacy. Left to play:

Bioshock Trilogy remastered (played back in the day but looking forward the remastered)

Star Wars Battlefront II (campaign)

Bulletstorm Full Clip Edition remastered

Both as well and Uncharted series

I am getting hyped for Mario Maker 2. Cant wait to play with my 4 year old daughter.

Sofa King · 06-26-2019, 08:42 PM

I couldn't get into Last of Us. Felt like a "telltale" game for what i managed to get through.

Heretic!!!!

Yeah, there's a lot of dialogue in the beginning, etc......but once you get past the clickers in the toppled office building, it was non-stop addiction from there on out!

Imon Yourside · 08-02-2019, 01:02 PM

This looks really cool, coming out on the 6th of August. More of a fan of scifi stuff these days than fantasy. Haven't played the 4x stuff in quite a while but this may bring me back.

I bounced off of Warframe twice. Once when it was still in in alpha stage and there wasn't much of a game there. Again a few years ago.

But I started playing again about 3 weeks ago and am playing the shit out of it. It still throws a ton of stuff at you with little to no explanation, but it is a lot more accessible than it was, and there is a lot of interesting stuff to do.

I know we have a few guys that either play it or used to play it.

I'm a founder but haven't played since the first couple of years. I've tried it here and there but it never really pulls me in. Game feels really generic and the Artwork needs updating last I played. I loved the Defense and Survival modes in it.

So I finally picked up Assassin's Creed: Odyssey last week. This game is pretty incredible. I haven't played Origins, but putting some time into Odyssey, I'll probably give that one a try as well.

Odyssey is so much fun. Hadn't played an AC game since AC:3. But I never finished that game because it had some seriously frustrating flaws. Odyssey is so much better in every way. And it's ****ing huge. If you spent the time doing every side mission and exploring every location, it would take forever. The combat is lots of fun. The sailing is a blast. Straight up pirate mode where you're ramming/shooting other ships to damage them enough to board them and kill everyone and plunder their cargo. Your crew is singing pirate songs while you're cruising the seas, whales jumping in front of the ship, etc. You upgrade your boat/weapons/crew to fight bigger ships. The normal weapons modding/building/upgrading system is fun too.

This game is a blast guys. Never thought I'd enjoy it this much. It's worth it just for the exploration itself, just to see some of the cool Greek sites. And like Breath of the Wild, you can pretty much go anywhere in the map and approach quests however you like, taking full advantage of the atmosphere.

Highly recommend.

Great game. I wholly agree. And I didn't like the original AC's.
