Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

still on my never ending quest to play through the entire podcast (though i’ve been more liberal with abandoning games or skipping them for later) i’m polishing off: The World Ends With You which seems at once incredibly shallow and dumb and complex and satisfying. Im quite near the end but starting...

Re: Games Completed 2021

Like a crazy person, I decided last year to play through all the games on C&R in order, though I got slightly side tracked by Demon's Souls and Cyberpunk (which I have yet to really play) Dark Souls was my first game I finished this year even though C&R wise that was technically jumping ahea...

Re: Games Completed 2021

after never getting the genre, i eventually pushed through and fell in love with the Demons souls remake.

So this week I finished Dark Souls Remastered, and i’m half way through DS2.

They really are something else.

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

Not at all, it even got a sequel in 2007/8. Ah you see, I stopped playing 'computer games' around the launch of the PS2 because my poor PC's graphics card could run Aliens Vs Predator and not much after that, once Red Alert 2 came out it became too much of a hassle for me to bother my parents for t...

Whaaat!? Bulletstorm was great! [/quote] You know, I was playing it, and I was loving it. Then suddenly, but entirely, every ounce of interest I had in it evaporated. I enjoyed it so much at the beginning because I have such strong reservations about Gears of War's writing and characters, but then ...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

I'm still working my way through (pretty much) every game in order of the podcast so my current playlist is : Ghost Trick : Phantom Detective on my 3DS , which is a great way to spend 30 minutes before bed with a bit of logic puzzling, it's not perfect but it's fun. Eternal Darkness on the Gamecube ...

Re: Our next podcast recording (29.11.20) - 447: Yakuza / Yakuza Kiwami

I owned Yakuza on the PS2, and got 3, 4 and 5 on the ps3 and never played them. That was in my peak game hoarding days. Part of the reason I avoided them was because I assumed it was going to be a GTA clone. I got sent a review copy of Yakuza Kiwami not long after I had started to miss Sleeping Dogs...

I may be wrong about this, but I *think* the most common fake carts for GBA games say GAME where originally they said Nintendo?

Re: 443: Tetris Effect and Tetris 99

Tetris 99 is the best version of Tetris, all other versions seem painfully clunky in comparison. My ex gf and I wouldn't go anywhere without a switch and she went outve her way to apply for a phone contract that came with a switch just so she could play it, and she never really gamed before that.

Re: PS3/360 games I shouldn't miss

Trying to think of games not covered on the podcast is tricky, the first though that comes to mind is Velocity Ultra and Velocity 2X. I barely post here but this is the second time we are agreeing on how good those games are. They are really amazing though. Would playing the first 2 be necessary wo...

Re: PS3/x360 games I shouldn't miss

Yeah the podcast is a pretty solid list, it manages to almost exclusively touch on the games I missed somehow. I don't know how I missed Dead Space and Mass Effect (though I'm gonna wait for the remaster trilogy for this). Split/Second is one of my friends favourite games, but yes these are all grea...

PS3/360 games I shouldn't miss

So I'm playing through all the episodes.of cane and rinse in chronological order to fill in a few gaps that I missed at the time. Are there any X360/PS3/Wii/WiiU games you think are must plays that have NOT been covered by the podcast? So far the only thing I've got outside the list is Eternal Sonat...

Re: Games Completed 2020

The second tried to be a mixture between like, Metroid, and Velocity, and for me, it really worked. The speed running through the platforming levels then back into your ship to finish off that level, is insane. I over used commas there.
