100%'d it. Excellent.

Good shout. I watched that without knowing anything about it when I had a nowtv trial and thought it was great. I just want to add that the cast is incredible. I thought the guy who played the hotel manager was excellent and probably my favourite character of anything this year. 100% agree, he was ...

Watched all of White Lotus a while ago. Really good dark comedy set on a fancy hotel on Hawaii, lots of really good characters and very funny moments, but also has a few more sincere moments that work well too. Would recommend highly. Unfortunately it's come off Now TV as of a few weeks ago, so you'...

Also playing through Metroid Dread. Loving it. Movement and combat is so smooth and satisfying, bosses are all so cool as well.

So I got to play a lot of the Halo Infinite beta this weekend and last weekend. And I have to say, it was extremely good fun. There's some quirks and creases they need to iron out but it was overall very very good. New equipment pieces the Repulsor (send grenades back to their sender, pushback enemi...

I just got eaten by the covetous demon the other night, didn't even realise that he could do that. I thought I was going to die for sure, but he just de-equips all your armour, does a small amount of damage and spits you out again. Then re-equipped my weapon and beat him. I agree this one has some t...

Been playing a lot of SNKRX. Very compulsive. Finding a build that works is fun. My strongest so far has been a mainly warrior build, got me up to level 140-something. Was amazing.

I finished my third playthrough of Dark Souls just last year, but for some reason I'm playing it again. Remastered version. This time I'm just trying to speed through the whole game as fast as possible with a strength build designed to make fights as easy as possible. It's great fun. Black Knight Ha...

I usually love to 100% the Mario games, they're always memorable to me, and I love how they usually reward you with a secret final challenge and a thank you note made out of bricks or coins or whatever. I didn't 100% Breath of The Wild, but I did do all of the shrines and the DLC, and I loved every ...

Played a bit more of the first Psychonauts there. I'm enjoying it, and so far the characters and world etc. are quite charming. Platforming hasn't been too difficult yet but I'm only around the beginning, so I am sure it will get tougher and potentially more annoying as I make my way through the sto...

Yeah, had my eye on this for a while and it's looking better and better the more I see of it. Will def be checking it out as it continues development. I love the way you can use the stick to perch atop it like a pole and then slam the whole thing down on your enemy, extended and all for huge reach. ...

I love my Xbox Series controller, but I'm afraid that d-pad is shockingly bad for fighting games (in my opinion :P) You know what, I tried today to give it another chance, and I mihgt have to retract this statement... :mrgreen: Played a bit of Real Bout: Fatal Fury Special this morning. The game wa...

fUoNe3DUIT4 Posted this in Whatcha Been Playin' thread, but I think the Secret of Mana OST deserves some love here so I'm posting it here too. Other highlights: Get into the adventuring mood: rIp7dUGt5jY Oh dear, what's lurking in this haunted forest? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01NVOJCixPQ Ahh...

Plugged in the SNES Mini again there and have been playing through Secret of Mana . Feel like I'm really getting the hang of it now, understanding how to level up not just my characters, but their weapons and their elementals. Once I grasped that, I found that I was enjoying myself a lot more, even ...

I saw that Nacon Pro Compact Xbox controller being advertised on Twitter and YouTube, and I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with it, and if so, is it any good for fighting games? I love my Xbox Series controller, but I'm afraid that d-pad is shockingly bad for fighting games (in my o...

I must echo what some have said here and say that my playstyle somewhat hovers between the two, and it usually depends on what mood I'm in. End of 2020, start of 2021: Binged all the Halo games, full focus mode, start to finish, got all the campaigns done. Then for a while there, I was very much dri...

Quake Remaster

Finished up Last Stop last night. It's on Gamepass, and can be completed in a few nights' playtime. I'd recommend it, it's got very good characters and the story works well. There's not really much to the gameplay beyond choosing dialogue options but that's fine. The final chapter didn't really work...

Also to anyone playing NieR Re[in]carnation, if you want to add me as a friend here's my Player ID!

... Doom 64 ... think I'm on level 12 now, it's really brilliant. Soundtrack has that PSX Doom vibe, completely different from the thrash metal inspired soundtrack to the original DOS games. And apart from that it's pretty much just DOOM with a few different sprites and stuff. It's great. And I'm s...
