May Contain Nuts Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) I've not seen any spoilers, it's arriving tomorrow but I won't be playing it until Sunday. There's such a backlog of games from the last couple of years I've not bought yet, God of War, Spiderman, Days Gone (completely passed me by that one, so couldn't answer some posts about it earlier!) , some star wars Jedi game, The Outer Worlds, Resident Evil 2&3 remakes. Still haven't played the most recent Far Cry or Assassin's Ceeed (I'll probably just skip them and pick the next one's up), Doom Eternal might be another one worth a go too for a change of pace. I own but haven't completed Hitman, nevermind Hitman 2. I swear I used to be able to find the time and enthusiasm to have played and completed all of those, so why does it all feel so daunting now? I blame RDR2 for completely draining me of the desire to play a hyped up new game for so long. Edited June 19, 2020 by Coconut Alph 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) Anyone playing Civilization 6? I find it frustrating. If the the difficulty is king, I find the game too easy. If I'll go with emperor, it's simply too hard. Anyone else having same issue? Edited August 10, 2020 by Dimmu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) Anyone else buy the Tony Hawk's 1+2 remake/remaster? Vicarious Visions have done a great job. It's the levels from the first 2 games (obviously) rebuilt from the ground up, albeit with some basic but essential features added from later games. Great nostalgia trip, plays exceptionally well... ...but I'm just as crap at it now as I was 20 years ago!

When I realised I’d have to watch about 20 hours of YouTube tutorials to have any idea what was happening, I knew it wasn’t for me.

I think I'm getting the hang of it, and enjoying it more. The biggest lesson to learn is remembering to use the revert feature followed by the manual - it isn't really explained that you have to manual after a revert to carry on the combo, but it's the secret to the big scores I'm getting now. The only disappointing things seem to be limited create a skater options, occasionally slow and unclear menus but biggest of all - no replay feature? I'm sure the old ones let you rewatch your run? If I'm pulling off a trick combo for 70,000 I want to see the damn thing again, and with a camera mode so I can watch it in all its glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they’re planning a bit patch next month, including things like private multiplayer with friends, not sure if things like camera mode are coming too. Create a Skater options aren’t terrible but could be better. Can’t even change height and things like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then about 10 mins after that the Digital Version went live which sold out in minutes. Luckily managed to hold off on the full version to try bag a digital version and managed it!

Ah, don't do much sofa co-op so that's not high on priorities. Will likely get a headset but won't get theirs. Maybe Turtle Beach or something like that.

Yeah, not bothering with the headset myself (nor the remote thats just appeared on Amazon for £25). I have a nice Razer haptic set I use for my PC that will hopefully work just fine ?

May Contain Nuts Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) I had no idea it was about to drop, so missed out. There's still a pre-order option to come from Currys & Argos I believe? I'm not sure if I'm going to go ahead with trying to get one or not, I'd be having to buy a new TV to make it worthwhile anyway so that's an few hundred quid to add to the cost, and I've not really been much more than a casual gamer for the past few years.
