Finally completed XCOM 2 on legend Ironman, had to take a 3 month hiatus due to blood pressure issues as previously got to the final level only for it to keep crashing
Next problem is my character died halfway through the campaign and I was kind of hoping it would be me that would deal the killer shot right at the end. Oh well, just have to start campaign No. 314 where Iām sure Colonel Gavstar will prevailā¦
Just bought this, super excited to give it a whirl later.
I had previously wanted Sonic to be put out to pasture, as it was frankly depressing watching the continual stream of shite games ruining the name. But, this one looks really good, and true to the originals.
Bought Sonic Mania, and got so riveted that Iāve only gone and completed it the same day (despite intending to string it out).
Fuck me - theyāve actually done it.
First truly worthy Sonic game since Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Itās beautiful, plays like a dream and features more imagination than even the originals did. If Sega have any sense at all, theyāll just let Christian Whitehead and associates develop all future games.
Thankfully I still have the emeralds to collect/bonus stages to gold medal, PlayStation trophies and a veritable **ton ** of in-game special features/extra modes. Expect Iāll do playthroughs as Tails and Knuckles too.
Both the 8-year old and 30-year old 'meās are so freaking happy right now.
Iāve played the series for a long time now. This edition isnāt exactly going to blow your mind graphically - the art style means it was never going to. As a nice relaxing game of videogame golf (I donāt play RL either), itās fantastic.
Iāve been playing the new PES, released last Thursday. I havenāt yet gone on to import everything, but I have imported the Sotonians logo and used it as āHampshire Redā's logo.
Very good. Theyāve finally not jipped PC owners.
Got it last night, and have been thinking about it in my idler moments today. Itās a game about nicking other peopleās spaceships, and itās a lot of fun.
Itās Hotline Miami meets FTL. For the uninitiated, Hotline Miami is an impressive retro styled twitch murder simulator where you die quickly, and restart lots of times. FTL is a starship management game, featuring a pause mechanic where you issue orders and your dudes do their thing.
This has extreme violence, 2D stylings, and actively encourages pausing.
The overall effect is mesmerising. Your dudes are like bullet time heroes that swing from victim to victim. Itās also as brutal in difficulty as Hotline Miami. Even with the pause button, thereās a lot of shit that can go wrong, and it often does. Nevertheless, youāll keep plugging away, because when it goes right, it feels so damn awesome.
Not had as much time as I would have liked to play stuff recently. In release deadline hell at the minute.
But when I do get a bit of time, itās mostly been taken up by Mario + Rabbids: Battle Kingdom.
Itās kind of like a Mario reskin of xCom. It does take a bit of getting used to seeing Mario and pals with guns, but itās good fun.
My initial concern was that the game may get a bit samey, but Iām on the third world and thereās been plenty of variety and a good level of challenge to keep it interesting.
Itās also doing a very good job of whetting my appetitie for the soon to be released Mario Odyssey.
A Zelda & a Mario game in the same year. What a time to be alive.
