I heard the other day that the engine it runs on wasn't built for more than 64 players so once enough people die in a match the game starts to run better.

Football Manager is legit good game if you're into that kind of thing. Warframe was kinda fun when I tried it, but I'm more into arena style multiplayer shooters. Paladins is my current go to.

Would playing Football Manager 2017 help me understand how football works? It'd probably be one of the few games my dad could pick up and kick my rear end at.

Color Splash imo looks like an upgrade of Sticker Star by nature of having better writing and more interesting stuff happening but still looks like it suffers from the same issues as Sticker Star combat-wise and aesthetic-wise where it's just a big ol' world populated with toads and the combat is meh and you don't get the interesting cast variety you got from the first two games.

I now have 75 hours in Euro Truck Simulator 2, and I'm reflecting on how glad I am that I got it. This game has been really good for podcast listening, zoning out, and for yesterday, just playing so I could have something simple and rewarding to focus on while I calmed down from an anxiety attack.

Game is good.

Truck Simulator and Rock Band are the only two games I let my 4.5 year old play with me. Truck Simulator he can sit on my lap and help me steer, in Rock Band I put him on the drums with "no fail" mode turned on and let him pound away. The rest of my gaming has to be done after he goes to sleep.

neogaf is convinced this will move millions of XBX consoles and become goty but this game is actually likely gonna run like poo poo anyway. hell, most of the games on XBX are still loving 30fps anyway.

I can't see PUBG working too well on consoles. For one, it's a lot jankier than I imagine the average console gamer would put up with, particularly someone who only buys big, AAA games. Then there's the fact that it's shooting is semi-tacticlol, coming from its lineage as an ARMA mod, so bullet drop, recoil, and dialing in your range are all big things that would mostly just go away with autoaim.

Sticker Star is absolute trash but Color Splash was one of my favorite games from last year. I don't know what the fascination is with Paper Mario 1 and 2 (I didn't really like either whatsoever, but whatevs) but I can say that even when every character is a toad they're all unique enough that it doesn't matter.

If people are still judging this game based on Sticker Star (and haven't just quit reading this post entirely for the sacrilege of not liking PM1 or TTYD) please at least give it a try. You know, with the caveat being you need a Wii U and probably still $60 because I doubt that it went down in price any.

I mean I figure the recommendation to play most of the Mario and Luigi games went without saying.

BiS is still one of the best.

SS is the best, BiS is second, DTB is third, dunno about Paper Jam exactly but it'd have to try to be worse than PiT at least.

If you're gonna ever play that one, make sure it's the European (or Japanese I guess) version since that one's just boring rather than the US one which is boring AND tedious because it just like massively boosted everything's HP to make it "difficult"

Definitely. I didn't know poo poo except kick ball into goal before playing FM and now at least I have a general understanding of formations and tactics and what skills are important for different positions.
