Venti Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Injustice 2 is pretty good. Downloaded War Wings just released today. Flight sim/dog fight type game. Not bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#Gary Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I've seen a lot of hype and rave reviews for Yakuza 0... So bought it off amazon for 20 quid. Does it get better as it goes on? I played about an hour last night and it was possibly the most boring hour of gaming I've had in a long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramagamma Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 It gets insane but if you are completely put off by the first hour then its possibly not for you, there are a lot of dialogue heavy cut-scenes and expositions 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLANCY2KTID Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Just bought Assassin's Creed Black Flag off PlayStation Store. Have never played an AC game before and bought it purely on the back of watching Black Sails. Is it any good? Hoping to get started on it next weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 It's possibly the worst game of the whole series tbh. Pish! It's probably the best! It's been the most refreshing game they've brought out to date that's for sure. You could argue that it was the game that saved the franchise. AC3 sold well but was horrible and is the only (main) game I've yet to complete. If they didn't bring out a cracker after that I reckon they'd have been in serious bother. The ship battles were superb and the world itself was incredible. My own personal favourite is AC2 as it seemed to get rid of the annoying repetition from the first one (even though that's still a flaw of the franchise) and was just an incredible game. Black Flag would certainly be second. Each to their own of course but there is no way Black Flag is anywhere close to being the worst. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The franchise is infamous for sticking to a tired formula and never changing and you hate the one game that shook it up? AC4 is easily the best AC game because it tries very hard not to be an AC game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Bought Ratchet and Clank for the PS4 on Saturday. Haven't had as much with a game in ages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramagamma Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 The Assassins Creed games are not great but calling Black Flag the worst of the bunch is a bit hyperbolic. Many fans of the franchise highlight it as the best the games have been and that's without making mention of the technical issues that plagued Unity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the sailing parts, but those stalking/tailing/following missions are ten a penny and I quit just a few hours in. I'm done with crap like that.

EdgarusQPFC Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Playing Skyrim on expert atm, trying a stealthy mage character, banning myself from using any bows or crafting gear, cause its far too easy to become overpowered/rich/high level that way and the games progression seems to become really screwed up and you end up with either foes you can one shot or insanely OP ones because your levelling was screwed up by focusing on too many skills But if you take your time and force yourself to focus on your build then the game seems to progress more smoothly, its weird because Skyrim was the game that really allowed you to become a jack of all trades, if anything it seemed to encourage it, but doing so totally screws your game up. So my character build is all about illusion, getting enemies to kill each other, fury etc. If that fails i'll summon a atronach and/or raise dead and spam destruction at my target. Its really fun. But the more i play Skyrim, the more i wanna play Oblivion again. Weird that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I saw Dues Ex (PS4) for a fiver in Tesco earlier. Not sure if its any good but its not much of a risk at that price. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great atmosphere to it, fun game play but the story is just boring and I feel no link to the original. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarusQPFC Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Apparently "e sports" aka insanely over the top competitive games such as DOTA2, Hearthstone etc are being seriously considered to become part of the Olympics, mainly due to them being included in the next Olympics in asia including them as a special one off but without medals, but based on their success and popularity they may become a medal event in future games. Now i love videogames, not so keen on the games listed, not really my kinda thing but i don't think they should be a proper Olympic event, for me the Olympics is all about athletic achievement, no such thing exists in gaming as far as i am concerned. Might just be me tho 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tri-TON Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Recently picked up the Hitman season for about £17 on the PS Store sale. What a fucking steal. Spent about an hour or so on each mission just exploring and when you get the mechanics and the style down it makes for some very satisfactory gameplay. Massive, immersive levels and enough content for literally hours of gameplay. Bargain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend watch them like a tv series and maybe grab a episode before i got to sleep or in the morning 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nae bother with people earning the living, have more issue with the idiots who throw money at these people. Like the feeders, basically people who send food to the streamer they like so they can watch them eat. I really don't understand it, or people who give to patreon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
