Hitman so far has been a ridiculously stupid yet fun game. They really put in a lot of work with incidental dialogue and patter you can overhear around Paris, I always hear something new from people on phones or meeting others.

The Escalation mode has astonishing depth, too; the different characters and the restrictions for how to kill them really go a long way to getting you to deconstruct the entire level, tons of things you don't necessarily see with the main two targets.

So The Evil Within is only $20. I've had an itch for survival horror for a while. Is it worth getting? Is it at least better than RE6?

It's a fun enough shooter with some poorly designed boss fights, so it's probably worth it. Don't expect a coherent plot though

The first fifth of Evil Within maybe is survival horror then it shoves you into 3rd person shooting and some of the worst boss fights ever made. Didn't help that the story was so loving bad it made Resident Evil look like Shakespeare. When I played it at launch, the performance was also probably the loving worst I've ever seen on the console.

I've said it before but Evil Within feels like a weird game that came out before RE4 and of which RE4 was the polished sequel to. It's so weird how it feels like a regression of RE4 in a ton of basic ways.

My problem with Dishonoured, apart from it looking ugly as gently caress, was that if it's possible to do a non-lethal don't get spotted run I'm going to try and do it, even if it's the least fun way to play the game. :(

Watch Dogs is fine if you paid $20 or less for it. Free is the perfect price. There are some enjoyable activities to do like convoys, and the online player vs player is pretty neat.

I can get a secondhand copy on Amazon.ca right now for $6 which I'm pretty sure is less than Amazon even charges to sell it for you. So I'm glad Ubisoft admits the game is valueless. :v:

They should give Puyo Puyo Tetris.

Which would also be nice since it means they'll have to start offering it digitally.

Pretty much. It was one of those games where there was a lot of cool stuff on the periphery like the random character notes and the tracking games but once it tried to drag you back to the main story it was just painful. I bought it at full price and never even finished it

While I'd be okay with getting Watch Dogs for free, this almost looks like a fake to me. Almost specifically tailored to make everybody mad about PS+. I hope this isn't a real thing.

There's nothing wrong with giving away a new version of one of the best games ever made, the problem is that it's the very worst version of one of the best games ever made. Glitchy and laggy at launch, with content cut out and sold at launch as expansion packs. To me it's a bigger stain on Ubisoft then AC: Unity.

Sisterwife was a mormon/polygamy term WAY before Watchdoge came out (in fact there is a show called Sisterwives which I've never seen I'm just aware it exists)

Anyway, Watchdogs isn't really that bad once you lower your expectations to the Ubisoft setting.

Yeah if nothing else throwing it out as a 'freebie' would get some more people into the PvP pool for a short while.

Of course I'm assuming it's still broken all the ways it was broken before, so maybe that's not actually a good thing for anyone

On the other hand, the mormons probably edited their script intentionally

not that kind of sisterwife.

the kind where the writers changed the relationship of the mc to the dead woman that the revenge plot is around so most of the cutscenes play out like he was romantically involved with his sister while his nephew starts treating him like a deadbeat dad

You have to climb around and hack cherry pickers and stuff to reach network hubs to reveal parts of the map. They're kind of neat puzzles sometimes, but it all evokes Assassin's Creed so hard you're like, goddamn it Watch Dogs man why can't you just parkour up this tiny wall.
