Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Need for Speed (2015) I don't know how I feel about this one really. It's a mix of great and poor in my opinion. The game is great visually, I'm sure all would agree and the cutscenes with the live actors blending in with the game cars and garage is possibly the most impressive visual effect I've s...

Re: The Last of Us Part II

Sounds very odd, especially with TLOU being one of the highest rated games of the entire the PS3 library. It's not like they need to worry about sales figures. I haven't played TLOU 1 yet, it's another one of those games I need to get to one day. Regarding ND's releases, I thought the Jak & Daxt...

Re: The Last of Us Part II

So what made TLOU - Part II review thing any different to other games then?

Re: The Last of Us Part II

Yeah I've seen plenty of shouting about 'paid for' reviews too. I just don't believe that happens, at least not with reputable sites. I heard a lot about this over TLOU - Part II as well. Is it that reviewers aren't allowed to reveal the story or something and if they do they get punished or lose t...

Re: Videogame Deals

EA access (PS4/XB1) is currently 74% off for the first month and can be cancelled anytime. £0.79 for a month of access to all the games is well worth it if you've got the time to play a lot. The library is much bigger on XB1 with many 360 titles available but the PS4 library is still very good (FIFA...

The XB1 and Steam versions are free. Possibly the PS4 version too.
I can confirm, PS4 version is also free.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Roblox (with a friend's daughter). Much like with Minecraft (but even more so) I could instantly appreciate the games open-ended creative possibilities and could fully understand how many children who play the game, play nothing else. In Roblox, you can play and create pretty much anything you can t...

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake

They really should have released the whole game in remake form instead of chopping it up, taking risks mixing things up and generally making a mess of things by the end. After playing the demo I was set on buying the game day one but after reading the comments here and hearing about a part 2 and pos...

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake

Thank you for sharing your review and opinions on the game with us. It made an interesting read for someone like myself, a huge fan of the original still waiting to experience the remake in full. I was pleased to read your opinion of the game upon completion was not one of disappointment. I'm glad y...

Re: Royal Mail's 2020 video game stamps

Seems like not having anything related to Rare is a pretty big oversight. Perhaps it's hard to get the rights to do so, with those IPs being tied up with Nintendo and Microsoft. Or maybe they felt those relationships made those games less "British"? Oh yes, I just realised the choices... ...

Royal Mail's 2020 video game stamps

https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/51012498 'Royal Mail stamps celebrate Tomb Raider and other classic video games' Did anyone hear about this? It's a rather odd choice of 12 iconic 80's and 90's video games. 4 for Tomb Raider, Elite (1984), Dizzy (1987), Populous (1989), Lemmings (1991), Micro Machine...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Degrees of Separation (2019) A beautiful but flawed experience. Let me begin with the positive. Degrees of Separation looks great, absolutely beautiful in fact. In addition to the beautiful artistic style is an equally beautiful soundtrack. That's the good. Now for the game itself. I thoroughly enjo...

A beautiful piece from one the most beautiful looking games of 2019, 'Degrees of Separation'. The track is called 'Reflected Lights'. Enjoy

Oh cool, just grabbed if. Think it was an error yesterday so don't know whether today is the same or they just decided to let everyone have it anyway. Great. Not sure what's going on with it or why it's going free. Maybe it was a mistake, a lot of people complained about missing out so they made it...

Clouds & Sheep 2 (XB1). So I played this one to completion on PS4 and quite enjoyed it so I decided to do it again. The game is really a lot of fun to play with a very nice learning curve but sadly becomes very unfair in later stages as the sheep get sick or die far too quickly and easily with n...

I think the idea is more of a personal list. So if Wolfenstein 3D got you into gaming, PC gaming, FPSs, fostered a deep love of blasting Nazis in the face or anything else you feel is important in your gaming life, throw it on your list. Thats exactly it, though people are welcome to post random an...
