Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled has been on my playlist these couple of weeks. Really enjoyable. Still making progress through Mario +Rabbids (I'm a completionist so those challenges need to be beaten) Resident evil 4 has also been slow going. I am enjoying it but im not as hooked as I was with the o...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Picked up Cult of the Lamb and I'm loving it. I've never really gone in on farming Sims, but this game is just hard to put down. It's well paced where you're always want to unlock that next thing which manages to feel just different enough to keep you hooked. The combat is solid, but the pop up sto...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Also, got back onto the MK8 tracks this weekend. After having achieved the gold trophies and 3 star rankings for all cups so far (includes all cc's and mirror mode) Nintendo release wave 2 of DLC tracks and once again I am pulled out of retirement to hunt them down and secure them for my trophy cabi...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Started Resi 4 today. Loving it so far. Found the controls and camera a real throw back that took a long time to adjust to. Also the aiming! I think I spent at least a good half hour trying to work out how to survive the first village square sequence. I Caned and Rinsed through my ammo and relied on...

Re: What's Out This Week?

Picked it up! Seems very good with some technical issues. I'm playing Steamworld Heist at the moment but once that's done i'll be headed to Hard West again. Steamworld Heist! What a game. Played that a couple of years ago on iOS. Brilliant 2D XCOM-like game. If you're looking for another XCOM style...

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

If its not already on the list I would like to suggest doing a Klonoa: Door to Phantomile and Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil double whammy episode. Especially with the latest Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series bringing the two together is glorious HD. Played them both back on original release for PS1 and PS2 ...

Re: What's Out This Week?

Is the first one any good? I've only played a couple of hours to see what it was like before putting it away for another day, but yeah what I played seemed good. It had decent reviews, too. X-Com with cowboys, pretty much. It's regularly on sale on the Switch for £2 or less, too. In fact, here you ...

Re: Books completed (and general book talk)

Highly recommmend the Red Rising trilogy by Pierce Brown for anyone who is a fan of Sci-Fi. Very big in its scale but brilliantly written with some cracking twists along the way.

Picked up Resident Evil 4 on Switch for this weekends gaming time. Can't wait to continue my Resident Evil journey. Only 17 years late to the party.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

We're away for a few days so I treated myself to Resident Evil 4 for Switch to play whilst away as I've been wanting to replay it for years. Only ever played the GameCube and Switch version, so have largely forgotten most of it. Wow, new games have certainly mollycoddled us over the last few years!...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

It's great to be able to be back to chat about the games I've been playing. My gaming now is few and far between. Being a new dad, means that the Switch has become my console of choice, and has been valuable on those late nights and early mornings when having a baby sleeping on me. My current game o...

In light of keeping this brief...

My history of the game (In Haiku)
Got it for Christmas
When I was just 6 years old
What a great present

My opinion (In Haiku)
You gotta go fast
Vibrant, well-designed, Tails!
A gentle challenge

Re: Your Favourite Game! (per console)

This hurts, but here we go. Limiting this to exclusives, because multiplatform releases complicate this. (or exclusive at time of release at least) Excellent point. Should include this to exclusives only where possible. Obviously with the current gaming climate not always possible. But certainly th...

Your Favourite Game! (per console)

I am sure that all of us have that one perfect game. A game that we could return to without question. Something that resonates within our hearts and minds and never fails to impress us. A game that is held tightly within the grips of nostalgia, which reminds us of better times, simpler times, or jus...

Re: 437: Prince of Persia (Classic)

Might be missing the version for this but I did have Prince of Persia for the Sega Megadrive back in the early 90s. This was one of a few games I had, which included Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 and Aladdin. So going from the speed of Sonic to this was something my young mind couldn't quite handle. ...

Re: Our next Final Fantasy podcast recording (10.8.19) - 382: Final Fantasy XII

Final Fantasy 12 was and still is one of my favourite in the series. But, I'm not entirely sure why... With others in the series (6 onwards) I can clearly pinpoint the elements that made those entries such wonderful games. From 6s villain Kefka, 7s wonderful materia system, 8s heartfelt portrayal o...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Not even the camera? I agree, there were instances of manic camera positioning. During the fighting sequences I felt they worked as it would often exaggerate the insanity of some of the fights. During the 'downtime' (walk to next battle arena) the camera would at times decide it wanted me to jump o...
