@CWill97 ...play them all. Origins, DA 2 - Which, btw, has some of the best writing in any videogame. It has its issues but still a great RPG, then treat yourself to Inquisition- one of the best western RPGs. You'll be familiar with the characters and lore for Veilguard then. Enjoy !
@Friendly.....you've said it right there. It's a business in the gaming industry. Operates like a business in any sector ie. exists purely to make money, not games
@Lavishturtle and when EA close Bioware down and makes the staff redundant, I imagine you'll be commenting "**** EA killing the industry" and we can remind you of this ridiculous comment you've posted
Replaying the gob smacking Hellblade 2 on XBX, the first game in a long time I've replayed straightaway. If it comes to PS5, get all over it.
Also the Euro 24 update on FIFA ...it will always be FIFA to me lol, and it's a fun add on, tho England are way too overpowered based on last night's shocker 🤣
Also started Stellar Blade on PS5 and it's wonderful, tho the 3rd boss truly kicks my ass. Fantastic visuals and a true gamers game
If I have time, more of my personal GOTY Dragons Dogma 2, a game I'll never tire of playing
Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
@OldGamer999.....they don't make games just to appease gamers. They do it to make money ie. profit for their shareholders. That's their sole raisond'etre. Nothing else
The stunning Hellblade 2 on Xbox. Ignore the haters, this is superb. Combat has a real heft to it, almost like you're actually in combat. Can't recommend it enough. More Dragons Dogma 2.... I think I'll be playing this game until the end of time. Gonna be my GOTY without doubt Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
The biggest disappointment of last year. Dull characters, ridiculous side quests - its a game that has you playing as anything BUT Spiderman !
Why are the characters so dull and nice to everyone all the time ?? Peter and Miles are absolute wet lettuces, like Disney high school characters. And why does playing as both Spidermen feel more like I'm playing as a Jedi Knight ?
Those ridiculous open world filler side quests- no, I don't want to follow your grandads inhaler trail for 3 miles, no I have no interest in destroying atoms, yes I'm sick of playing Power Generator Simulater 2. Not to mention playing as a deaf girl tagging graffiti- just let me be Spiderman !!! Plus those annoying Danikasts.....really ?
I still can't believe Insomniac never listened to feedback on the first game that no one wants to play as stealthy Mary Jane ( the DUUULLLEESSTT, plastic character ) so they include more but hey, this time, let's give her a gun.
Overall, the writing and dialogue is terrible - pure PreTeen cringe. Peters voice when he wears the black suit is beyond cringe.
There was an added trophy for finishing New Game Plus ...play it again ? Never in a million years.
Rant over. Sorry 😅
@LordFunkalot oh I agree, the last one, MW3, in particular, was pants ! But still a top seller.....the glory days have gone in terms of quality.
And oooh yeah, would love a new SOCOM, brings back great memories 😢😢
@LordFunkalot ....Call Of Duty fatigue kicking in ???
It's been the best selling game year on year on PS for years, even the ones deemed to be inferior, like Vanguard. It ain't going anywhere anytime soon, GamePass will not make the slightest bit of difference other than boosting MS coffers through billions of MTX sales
Downloaded Manor Lords on PC to try later, got me intrigued after the hype My good for nothing team of useless adventurers will keep getting asses kicked on PS5 Dragons Dogma 2 ...love this game, hilarious at times And hopefully make more progress in the amazingly old school System Shock remake on PC. That's how you do a remake Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Finally back on here after travelling around the Phillipines for 6 weeks. Got some serious gaming to catch up on woohoo. So, started Dragons Dogma 2 which is fantastic but hard. I'm dying so often I'm role playing it as the most useless bunch of adventurers ever - eg falling off a bridge, swept into a river and dropped 200ft into another river by a huge waterfall ...love it Also carrying on with Avatar on XBX, enjoying it immensely, far better than anticipated And just finished the very challenging tutorials on Top Spin 5, I can see me getting my arse handed to me online later Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
@CutchuSlow because they were all out well over a year ago. Can't expect those pretty niche titles to be high in current sales charts !
Edit ! Apart from Infinite Wealth...but again, pretty niche JRPG
3 fantastic games. But be warned they are typically hardcore PC games - difficult, obtuse, complex and very much of their time. Metro games they ain't but have the best atmosphere in any game. Can't wait for this, if true
@Kidfunkadelic83 ..you really should get around to playing Mass Effect 2 ASAP. Its one of the best games ever made, hasn't aged. Its in my top 5 of all time. Utterly mind blowing
3 is fantastic too, with some of the best DLC ever, specifically The Citadel
@ItsBritneyB_tch .....incredible ain't it ? There's people on here commenting "it's a 5 at best"..."no way it deserves a 7" then declaring that, no, they haven't actually played it but watched a couple of YouTube videos. Baffling. The general consensus around seems to be that it's a ffaaarrr better game than everybody expected
This game is one big embarrassment after another. Maybe it's a feature for players to avoid playing the game altogether and get straight to the end game and all those sweet microtransactions 🤣🤑🤑🤑
Tekken 8 on PS5, been torn a new one online already lol. The best Tekken yet. Loved 7 but this raises the bar Just finished Robocop Rogue City on XBX ..enjoyable fan service but a 00's bang average shooter Also will finish Assassins Creed Mirage ..its good to finally finish an AC game in less than 200 hrs but this is a great game in its own right. I'll also dip more into Avatar FoP on XBX, a graphical stunner and a fantastic open world adventure Have a great weekend guys and gals ❤️
Nothing for me, got a bad viral chest infection which has knocked me off my feet. So, in bed binge watching final season of The Walking Dead, which will be me in a days time 😔😔
Happy New Year to everyone on this amazing site to you and all your families ! Here's to another fantastic year of gaming ❤️❤️❤️❤️.
P.S. roll on Tekken 8 and Dragons Dogma 2
