Fuck my arse. I can't believe those reviews. Wow. Almost welling up reading some of these reviews. My wife is on half term and she's out Fri, Sat, Sun and I am going to sit on my bollocks until I'm infertile.
I cannot wait.

Re: Dark Souls I, II and III
For all the grief DS2 gets about ramping up the difficulty by overwhelming you with bullshit, DS3 is much worse and the DLCs are largely awful for it. Just pranks, gimmicks and mobs. I really hope Elden Ring doesn't lean into that kind of trollface shite.

Sifu
I'd been looking forward to this one, the trailers looked superb and I'm a massive kung fu/martial arts fan, but I still wasn't convinced that the scripted gameplay sequences would reflect the actual game. They nailed it. A lot of the chat I've seen online has resolved around the old difficulty disc...

Re: The Nintendo news and discussion thread
I'll get the MK8D DLC but I was amused that after all the recent MK9 chat and after the years of begging for more tracks had died down to nothing, they release more tracks. I no longer find Nintendo endearingly quirky, though. Beyond that, there were a lot of old games I had little interest in playi...

Yeah, I had a number of security errors over the last week where my phone browser blocked the site.

Very likely in for Sifu as a massive kung fu movie fan, but will wait on reviews as it's an unknown quantity.

Great to see something other than a stream of gushing praise for this derivative, limited, smarmy game.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I've been playing a couple of hours of Ketsui pretty much every day for the last month and developed a ganglion cyst on my left wrist which GP said may be down to excessive arcade stick use. I wish I'd started playing these games when I was 20 instead of 38.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
@Marlew Ketsui is a steep mountain to climb. A lot of fun though and I'd like to play it more as well. I'm hopefully hopefully getting there, but consistency/time is a factor at the mo. Stage 4 is actually not too bad, I've cracked the first half and the midboss is OK until the last phase which I c...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Feeling quite out of the loop these days with what's been released over the last few months or so. Been playing a lot of Ketsui again via the M2 ShotTriggers release, pretty motivated to try to get the 1CC this year because it's such a fun game, but one I've only ever played pretty casually. The bul...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
The rock, paper, scissors stuff was probably the crappest aspect of the combat. Tells are way too subtle and unreadable until you've been shafted a few times. Pretty satisfying when you eventually get it but nothing more sophisticated than trial and error imo.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Shouldn't be dodging in Sekiro really, parry is essentially your best attacking and defensive move. It's about chipping away and creating opportunities. There's a rhythm to the combat. Attack attack, parry parry parry, attack attack, etc.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
DS3 is a perfectly good game but it's only that. Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2 really bring something special which DS3 can only vainly try to evoke. If you don't take to DS3, please don't write off Dark Souls as a whole. Sekiro is a game I'm glad I finished because the last two bosses were incredibly...

The music of Miles Davis. Never thought that jazz is so fascinating! His "Generique" is a true masterpiece, an ultimate must-listen. The guy reinvented jazz three or four times. Possibly the most innovative 'popular' musician of the twentieth century. If you like that very laid back Ascen...

Re: Dark Souls I, II and III
Bloodborne, by a mile. It's as good as the original Dark Souls.
