Walking Dead is the only game I've ever platinumed. I came close in Bastion, but just couldn't beat one particularly cunty challenge. |

I am moving onto second season soon but will do the 400 days DLC prior, apparently some of that carries over to season 2. From reading reviews, season 3 and the DLC is not so good, I dont own them either but lots of complaints about characters being boring and decisions make little difference to the story. I have Borderlands as well, look forward to that, heard good things about it. Wolf among us suppose to be another good Telltale game. |

Hey man, a platinum's a platinum, alright? It gave me a curious sense of accomplishment to finally get a 100% in a game. I've never even come close with proper retail games. Now I'll always have that 100% on my account and maybe my grandkids will see it and think it was hard to get. Edited by Sir Goodfellow, Aug 20 2017, 09:35 PM.

I really enjoyed 400 Days for what felt like 15-20 minutes it took me to play through it. It's far too short and insubstantial to be satisfying, though it did make me want to play season 2 (before I read the bad reviews and forgot all about it). |

Looking back after a bit of a breather I realise I was probably too harsh and dismissive of Dark Souls 3. I think I was just burnt out by the time I finished it, I really should have taken a break around the 2/3 or 3/4 mark. It's a pretty good game, despite not doing a couple of things that I missed from DS1. There's no way I'd have played so much of it in less than a fortnight if it wasn't a great game. Eventually I'll return and at least try to beat Nameless King. One day... So I'm playing Quake at the moment. This is one I've tried a couple of times very briefly in the past but never gave it a proper chance. I figured if I'm such a fan of DOOM I should probably play this. My first impressions weren't that positive as, despite it being technically more advanced than DOOM, I think it's significantly less appealing in the visual and audio department. The art style is soooo brown, the environments feel much more confined and the soundtrack (by Nine Inch Nail's Trent Reznor) is the antithesis of up-beat. Also being a fully 3D game from 1996 it does look pretty bad in some areas, I think mainly the weapon models suffer from this.That said, the low-poly enemy designs despite being so rudimentary kind of have an aged charm to them. That look does sort of assist the horror of the enemies in a way. I was also, initially, not as hot on the gameplay as I'd hoped. I immediately didn't like that it had slower movement than DOOM, and I was also finding many of the enemies more annoying. It's grown on me, though. Quake is absolutely more difficult than DOOM, its far easier to die and you are fighting fewer numbers of more individually dangerous and aggressive enemies and you're not given as many supplies or as much ammo. Despite the movement being slower, the combat actually plays faster, and there's some awesome weapons. Its a game that really whips you into shape. The movement feels excellent, too. I can see why being able to jump would've been a big deal for id fans at the time. HUHH! HUHH! Good game, even 21 years later. I suspect I'll enjoy Quake 2 a bit more from what I've seen and heard of it but we'll see. Edited by Doomguy, Aug 26 2017, 08:37 PM.

I'm over Nioh. I'm 3/4 through but just bored with the small number of enemy types and unremarkable level design. I definitely got a lot of hours out of it, and overall think it's a good game with quality boss fights and nice kinetic combat. It's just too long without enough variety to sustain my interest. I might finish it off when I have some time away from it, because the bosses really are top notch experiences and I want to fight the rest of them. |

Finished Quake the other night. It was an alright game but I just don't enjoy it as much as doom. There are some really irritating enemies (those Spawns are just awful cancer) and its very easy to die very quickly so I found myself saving regularly. Both of the "Boss" fights suck, too... It certainly has a higher skill ceiling than doom and it has that same gameplay purity to that I like so much, so that kept me going; but I don't think its as enjoyable as a whole package. I guess the gaming industry really isn't ever going to top a game from 1993, not even the people who made it. Started playing Hyper Light Drifter today. Pretty good so far, more-so once you adjust to the controls (which seem fine, I guess I just had to untrain the DSIII mapping from my mind). I really like the game's aesthetic.

Fuck you Walking Dead Season 2, you had to make me kill a dog. It was hard enough offing Lee in season 1 but a damn dog. Was hoping he would become a valuable sidekick through out the game, I already got attached to the poor guy in just a few minutes. |

Spoiler: click to toggle I think Tales of Borderlands is the only one of their games I enjoyed more than Life is Strange (apparently the first episode of the new one is great). -------------------------------------------- Also this is funny, the Switch Cube: http://au.ign.com/articles/2017/09/01/some-nintendo-switch-games-will-require-memory-cards Edited by NMANOZ, Sep 2 2017, 08:05 PM.

The shipyard/ship part of Uncharted 3 is rad. |

Finished Hyper Light Drifter a few nights back. I liked it though I didn't think it was quite as good as I was expecting, going off the hype but also comments that it was actually harder than Dark Souls. It isn't, and its also a simpler game, not as much depth / options for the player. Still, it plays rather nicely and has a reasonably generous checkpoint system to limit the frustration. Soundtrack is really nice and I find the pixelart graphics appealing. Worth the $10 I got it for. |
