The only thing in the demo that's exactly the same is the videotape. The area you're in is all there but that's it - you don't even begin in the same room. It was cool noticing all the changes. |

Started a second playthrough with The Last Of Us. But I was really looking forward to doing a +newgame with my previous collectables maintained, though for whatever reason when upgrading my PS4 console, the save games did not carry over. Even though I am pretty sure I backed them up and loaded them onto the new console. Did the old school method with USB, do not have PS+ cloud. Trying on Hard mode now but I feel like it will be a struggle without my previous save game and the upgrades. |

I played on hard the first time around and it wasn't too bad. |

I still need to get you to join True Achievements. Despite what you think it isn't just for tracking achievements, it also has guides, sales updates (including our prices), comparing friends game library, creating gaming sessions (like our old GS game nights), contests, forums, create your own challenges, game clips that you saved on the XB1 and more. You can see why I don't go to GS anymore along with all those feral fanboys (I just go there to troll them and bag Nintendo and the Switch U). |

Finished RE7. I could see people going either way with it, but I really enjoyed it. It's hands down got the best plot in the series, with a neat ending that ties everything together. Gameplay is solid. Plenty of spooks from beginning to end, though a little trope-ridden in this respect. Most boss fights are fun. Good game, hope they continue in this direction. |

Read that a major criticism of RE7 was game length, only 10 hours? Is there much tie in with RE series at all? If you can answer spoiler free of game. |

The review I watched said that it ties it into the series in the last couple hours. I don't think 10 hours is at all a bad length for this kind of game. Alien Isolation was 17-18 if I remember correctly and people bitched that was too long.

I finished it in 10 hours. Every RE before 4 was roughly 10-15 hours. It ties in with the series towards the end and there are hints of it throughout the game, but the story is pretty standalone. |

Continuing ZOMBIE WEEK with Dying Light. It's fun, like Far Cry meets Fallout. Sometimes you're forced to barge through huge zombie hordes dodging them with parkour and drop kicking them in the face mid-run. It emphasizes melee weapons and projectiles over guns (I haven't even used a gun in 8 hours of play) and has a neat crafting/scavenging system. Storytelling is much better than Fallout. It's a little rough around the edges but looks beautiful at times, especially when you're looking out into the night from a safehouse - the lighting of the city is so good. |

Trying to play Mirror's Edge Catalyst without much success. Same problems I had with Battlefront and a couple of other Origin games - black screen at launch and window header at top. Like it's trying to go full screen but failing. Bloody annoying. Distracting myself from the myriad of non working "solutions" with some Prof Layton and the curious Village. Forgot how much I loved these games

Dying Light is the underrated gem of this generation. It was too easily written off as another sandbox game. I'm having a blast. Just when it felt like it was gearing towards the finish, you go on a mission and end up in a completely new and different-looking overworld, like Deus Ex but bigger. I can't think of a game with a better nighttime aesthetic. The parkour mechanics put Assassin's Creed to shame. Good! Edited by Moo, Jan 31 2017, 01:13 AM.

Wow, you tend to blast through your games. I take it slow these days. I only play for an hour or two per night a few times a week. It's been too hot to play during the day. I'm still on The Last of Us. Towards the end of the University chapter, so I must be close to the end game. I know I whinged about the zombies being irritating to fight, but now it's the humans giving me a headache. The infected either helpfully stand around waiting for you to shiv them in the neck or mindlessly rush into the fire from your molotov. They neither flank nor shoot you from behind, nor lob molotov cocktails in your direction just as you're trying to heal. The bandits have become a much bigger chore to manage.

If you're where I think you are (escaping the science research building) I recall it being quite tough. You've still got a fair way to go. |

Im playing on hard difficulty on my second play through and I have noticed the biggest difference on normal level is that you have to use stealth a lot more to take out enemies. Ammo is much more sparse and the infected move faster. When I played normal level I mostly played the game like it was Uncharted, guns blazing not overly worried about being detected though I would try to take out as many enemies as I could in stealth before I lost my cover and was detected. I found the best weapon is the arrow and crossbow, it obviously does not trigger an alarm with any time of enemy and most times you can recover an arrow used on the enemy. Might help you out a little with the game. |

Okay "underrated gem of the generation" was an overstatement because the story is getting ridiculous and the sidequests are kinda repetitive, but it's still good! |
