Re: Serene Avian Card Game Wingspan Flutters onto PS5, PS4

Muppet

I have the Switch version. It's a great game to chill with. It appeared to be quite complex to me at first, but doesn't take too long to pick up. The CPU quite tough, even on the lower difficulties, but the game always remains fun. I'd definitely recommend if you like both table-top games and birds.

Re: PS Plus April 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Muppet

@DrJames I bought it yesterday and it's well worth it at that price. I've been playing on PS4 and while there is a frame rate issue, I don't think it's bad enough to spoil any fun. There's not much action anyway.

Re: Review: Far Cry Primal (PS4)

@MikLSP It certainly is more than a cosmetic refresh. Most of the mechanics are the same, with similar quest types and collectibles but the era does change things a bit, E.g. Instead of using binoculars for scouting, you use an owl, which can also attack and you can tame beasts like tigers and wolves to fight alongside you. There's a few other things too. Enough to make it seem more than just a modified version of FC4. It's well worth a buy IMO.

Re: Review: Far Cry Primal (PS4)

I've spend a good 8 hours on it so far and I was quite surprised how many new ideas were incorporated, while still feeling like a Far Cry game. I don't see this as a FC4 mod or anything. It certainly doesn't have a copy and paste feel as much as many franchises do (E.g. AC, COD, Battlefield).

Re: Store Update: 18th August 2015 (Europe)

Toy Soldiers Hall of Fame Edition appears to the standard game with the Legendary Heroes pack included but is a quid more than buying these items separately. It doesn't make sense to buy this version.

Re: PS4 Releases Reduced in New European PlayStation Store Sale

@Mrskinner If you're a fan of Sherlock Holmes and crime solving adventure games then you should enjoy it. There's six cases to solves, each taking about 1-3 hours to solve. I had a lot of fun playing it but I found both the controls and the UI quite frustrating at times, which let it down somewhat. I see it as a £20 game myself.

Re: Review: The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth (PlayStation 4)

Muppet

I loved the original PC version and since getting the Rebirth I fell in love with it all over again. I'm so addicted to it that many of the games I paid £40-50 for have been gathering dust. I've probably spend more hours playing this than anything else on the PS4 and it was free with Plus. Bus journeys during London's rush hour are now a joy as I play the Vita version on my way to work. The gameplay is great and the fact that everything is random makes each play-through a different experience each time. The dark humour is great too. I would give this a 10/10 myself (which I would normally say no game deserves). BTW you can turn of the pixelated graphics mode to return to the original flash graphics if you want.

Re: Game of the Month: October 2014 - Alien: Isolation

Muppet

Shadow of Mordor was an October release (in the UK anyway as it was a Sept 30th release in US). That would get my game of year vote (so far). I didn't think it got a mention September's either though. Otherwise I would say The Evil Within from your list.
