The Cane and Rinse forum

I’ve been playing God of War. It is excellent 🤩 I got it for Christmas. Didn't grab me until I got to the lake but it is fantastic. It's hub and spoke design rather than open world but I love exploring all the nooks and crannies which I wouldn't quite do in an open-worlder. Really got a good feel f...

Fuck, that did not last long.

I planned a nice relaxing Sunday morning. Instead I spent it shouting at my laptop. The upside is that I broke 2 million.

I knew it was a bit special by the last 40 seconds of the run. Don't ask me to do it again though.

I spent 2 .5 hours on Wednesday trying to beat Ksub's score and couldn't even match my own.

Then I get this on my second run today.

Ridge racer type 4- Super slick racer, still looks beautiful. GTA 2- Often forgotten about in light of it's sequels, well worth playing. Point blank- I'm guessing not but If you have a crt, get a lightgun and play this! While I'd play RR4 over Gran Turismo 2, do pick up a copy of GT2 for cheap if y...

Ksub casually sticking nearly 30k onto his previous score. Didn't stop me though.

Fucking hell, sorry mate!
I've only just now properly read your name. You've always been star picture alfonso to me.

Jan 1 - Wonder Boy in Monster World (Sega Mega Drive Mini) An engaging 2D action RPG. It has good variation in enemies and decent dungeons to explore with some hidden items and rooms. Combat is limited to two weapons and some magic spells which I didn't use often, usually on bosses. There are two ty...

Who is this mystery Colin, and what does he want?

Well, I'd like to have a go at Ksub's score, but I won't get around to it until the weekend.

It may have calmed down but didn't help with the anagrams. Went ok until the horses, only did 5 anagrams and threw in wild guesses for the DLC. Didn't even guess some questions. Great quiz though. Round 1: In The Beginning 1. Which legendary 8-bit composer, who's credits include Jack The Nipper and ...

As usual I didn't jump on many new releases this year and Wargroove is the only 2019 release I finished, With that in mind here's my 5 favourite games that I played for the first time this year. Red Dead Redemption 2, Donkey Kong '94 and Tetris Effect all just missed out on the list. 5. Yakuza Kiwam...

I'm looking at it too, but I only have four anagrams so far so I'll hold off posting for a bit.

I also only have four horses, but I won't get any more of those.

Jan 16 - Yakuza Kiwami 2 (PS4) Jan 20 - FTL: Faster Than Light (PC) (Easy) Jan 25 - Final Fantasy VIII (PSVita - PS1 Classic) Jan 27 - Puzzle Bobble (Switch) (Difficulty Level 4 - One credit) Feb 3 - Metal Slug 3 (PS4 - PS2 anthology version on Easy) Feb 8 - Puzzle Bobble 2 (Switch)(Vs Computer mod...

Damn! I think that's my reaction every year though.

9 games I've finished, at least 7 more I want to play and plenty more that sound like good listens.

I had an outside hope that one game would be included. Its the very last one.

2016 - Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana You and someone else around these parts have been pushing this game enough that I now have to get around to it at some point. My favourite JRPGs that I've played this decade have been from previous decades (VC4 excepted). Best Remaster/Remake - .hack//GU: Last Reco...

I was hoping... (Wandersong spoilers...)

Ahh! That's why I asked if you found something else. Its an odd little thread to leave dangling.

It's on 2, Josh's and Alex's.

I haven't played it either and picked Rocket League for 2015, which is on 3 lists. That's the thing with this, it really depends what people get around to.

17th Dec - Wandersong (XBO) there’s a bonus secret extra scene to go find, but that can wait. Is that the secret to the left of the bard's house or have I missed something else. Yes, that. You haven’t missed anything else that I know of. Oh its a small dev room . I wouldn't bother waiting. I looked...

I had to dig back into the old top 50 list and my games completed lists for this one. 2014 and 2016 were still a struggle, apparently I didn't have big standouts for those years whereas 2017 has loads. 2010: Red Dead Redemption Such a great game that I even forgive the overlong second act in Mexico....
