Yeah decent month for me π already played through deadspace remake,which was great, but wwe24 makes it for me as the last one I bought was 22. Kinda intrigued but doki as apparently its a horror?? Anyone played it already?
This is kinda interesting but the steam deck has opened my eyes to what's out there. I had Samantha fox's strip poker on the c64 bit this stuff is even more graphic...π¬
For me, to be wowed with the ps6 when it comes I need to give the 5 pro a miss. Not particularly impressed with it so far but coming from the 4 pro to the 5 was such a minor improvement that it ruins the generation a little. Faster load times and and little extra shine is not a generational leap imo but with the 5 pro we're just getting to play the games that we've recently played at a higher frame rate...
@HughJasol I was having a clear out and sold my ps3 copy on ebay for Β£90 a couple of weeks ago, think the remake might have maxed out the price for now.
I've been 'dipping my toes' in pc gaming recently with a couple of mini pcs and the oled steamdeck and there's a lot to like. Tbf my main focus is emulation but I've been impressed with how much free stuff is available. Obviously no charge for online but the amount of free games each month from epic, gog and amazon (if you have prime) imo is better than either plus or gp and I subscribe to both. If I ever decide to go 1 system only it will definitely be pc
I'd rather they just shortened the lifespan of the core consoles to 5 or 6 years and move into the ps6. The ps4 pro made sense due to 4k being heavily adopted but this seems to be mostly a framerate boost (probably some better bloody ray tracing as well). If it looks good I'll still get it though, I'm a weak weak man
On a site full of gaming enthusiasts I find it hard to believe that the majority aren't familiar with emulation which makes collections like these redundant. Even if you only have a reasonably basic phone you can be playin simpsons hit and run in a few minutes.
I think consoles days are numbered but not because of pc or mobile, it'll definitely be online only and able to run through multiple devices. Gamepass on firesticks is a scary image of the future
@ApostateMage Sabacc has properly suckered me in, hate having to leave the table after every win/loss though. Agree with you guys on the lockpicking, really easy but kinda fun
@get2sammyb if you enjoy side scrolling beat-em-up's you'll love it. Openbor is a free open source side scroller engine based on streets of rage (the bor bit actually stands for beats of rage) and there's literally hundreds of this style of game based on loads of franchises. He-man is the best of the bunch for me but there's loads of marvel, dc, MK, SF games etc. Plus they'll run on a potato...π
