Re: Our next podcast recording (30.3.24) - 613: Cyberpunk 2077

Sadly I've not finished the game (currently 60 hours in) in time for the podcast but I do have to mention one thing.

The sense of immersion and atmosphere in general is incredible and possibly the best I've experienced in an open world game. Night City is an absolute marvel.

Re: Videogame News

I'm not sure it's a big fuss over nothing - first party games going to a rival console (with more likely to come) feels like the thin end of the wedge for MS as a hardware supplier. If Xbox exclusives are going to end up on PS/Switch eventually what reason is there beyond Gamepass (which they also w...

Thanks for taking the time to do the quiz and results as ever Alex, it's a nice bit of fun and really appreciated.

Re: Bad game openings

Nier: Automata has to be up there too purely for the fact that it takes roughly an hour before you can save for the first time.

Re: Bad game openings

Okami had a similar problem - took far too long to take the training wheels off.

Driver always sticks out to me - that 'tutorial' level was the most difficult part of the game!

Re: Whatcha Been Watching?

Traitors (BBC) Anyone else watching this? I missed the first season but I'm completely hooked on this one. I've played a fair few games of Mafia/Werewolf/Secret Hitler over the years so this is like crack to me! It's got a few crappy reality TV trappings (multiple replays, strangers telling people ...

Can't believe I'm saying this in 2024 but - Beavis and Butt-Head. Also can't believe I'm saying this - it's probably the best it's ever been. New series? Or you watching old ones? New series with a free Paramount + trial. It's really good, especially if you used to like it back in its' hey-day. Muc...

Re: Our next podcast recording (13.1.24) - 602: Stacking

Charming dialogue and writing, a unique and bold aesthetic and some great multi-solution puzzles all wrapped up in a nice short package that doesn't overstay its welcome.

It feels like the greatest non-fatal take on the Hitman series I've ever played.

Hey peeps, Hope you are all well and yes it has been a while for me. I played Dark Souls II recently to the end and honestly will never play it again. A game that I really enjoyed in places and would have enjoyed in totality if it did not go out of it's way to be a big bag of dicks. Some of the des...

Re: Whatcha Been Watching?

Reservation Dogs - Season 3

The most funny, touching, dramatic, well acted and downright joyous thing I've seen in years. Can't remember the last time I watched a show with such a likable cast. Incredible show that everyone needs to watch.

Can't rate it highly enough.
