Lobok posted:Even goon reviews, those most trusted and hallowed of all reviews, have to be taken with a grain of salt. I'm seeing it now with Doom. I was a tiny bit wary of playing it from criticism that it was going from arena to arena but now that I'm playing it I think about how similar these "arena" fights are to other games if I swapped it for something like "setpiece". And I'm noticing how much combat is actually spread all throughout the levels in areas of all shapes and sizes that could in no way be described as arenas. Not to mention how much "arena" combat there was in the original Doom games! It's been a while since I played but DOOM still owns.

Lobok posted:Yup. If it wasn't clear from my post, DOOM is everything I wanted and lots of things I never even knew I wanted. I'm glad you're enjoying it  I was stating that I still like the game and don't look back on it as "maybe it wasn't that good🤔" Not quoting you in particular.

Which game? As long as you had fun it doesn't matter I said come in! posted:Easy Allies on Youtube is my favorite place to get reviews. They were formally GameTrailers. They gave Breath of the Wild on Switch a 4.5/5 with their only complaint being the real bad frame rate issues that they said they encountered throughout the entire 60 hours they played. They liked the survival mechanics, weapon durability, difficulty, dungeons, and graphics. Oh dang, I didn't realize they were formally Gametrailers. Gonna have to check them out.

Just got a platinum trophy, though it feels sort of empty because it was a really easy platinum, though at least I'm not one of those people that bought the game just because it was an easy plat.

glam rock hamhock posted:The Bunker. I bought it this week because it was on sale and I have a fondness for FMV games. It was alright. Nothing amazing but I don't feel ripped off either. Probably the quickest I've gone from buying a game to platting it.  The only game I can think of that people probably bought soley just for cheivos was the first (I think?)

The Colonel posted:the only gears of war game i've played is gears of war 2 and it was a lot of fun and really goofy and it's weird to me that the series tried so hard to be serious when the best parts where when you were shooting enemies inside of a giant worm and everyone was shouting about being trapped in a giant worm and you escaped by using your chainsaw gun to chainsaw your way out of a giant worm, and not the parts where a character had to kill his wife because cliff bleszinski wanted to make a controversial political statement that would lose all meaning in a few years Holy drat, in Gears 3 when friggin' Dominic sacrificed himself and "Mad World" started playing and everything was going in slow motion, I was thinking, "Seriously?" I'm not spoiling because that story had thoroughly gone off the rails in that game and also I'm pretty sure no one cares in this thread. I'm linking it look at this dumb BS also comedy option, I can't tell if the uploader was being ironic in their description: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBvDC9v5vyc

Doctor Spaceman posted:I laughed my arse off at how overwrought that scene was, it was fantastic. I remember Mad World coming up a couple of times in the series' ads and I thought that was such a huge tonal whiplash, at least for me. I never saw the story as anything more than dumb dialogue between action scenes. Lurdiak posted:Also at one point there was a Gears of War official comic that claimed that there were some kind of "breeding camps" were women were enslaved to breed super soldiers, and while that kind of stuff could be justified in a horrific dystopian sci fi setting, I have no idea how it made its way into Gears of War as something the good guys do. Oh yeah there was this dumb poo poo too, lol. Like they were trying to be a low rent 40,000K or something and even then Warhammer has nothing like that. At least I don't think so. That is a deep well of silly lore.

I said come in! posted:At least Horizon is starting off amazing. Killzone at no point in time was ever good. The portable versions of the games were good. KZ: Liberation was a solid tactical overhead shooter. KZ:Mercenary was a solid portable FPS. I played KZ 1-3 and they were pretty standard FPS games. Nothing extremely amazing except maybe multiplayer for 2 and 3 because there wasn't any online sci fi shootmans at the time. At least on PS3. And they might as well been regular military shooters because there wasn't anything really out there in terms of sci fi weaponry.

With single player games, casual games, alcohol, drugs, tv shows, i can juggles those with the rest of my life. It's good to know what one's own hangups are and how to control them.

Macaluso posted:Seriously I wish I could have recorded every weird bug I've encountered playing this game because it's honestly incredible Rise of the Tomb Raider shipped with so many. I mean luckily the game is fun and the story is cool and I think Lara is a badass and the game is quite pretty. But man some of these bugs. The amount of times the camera has gotten stuck zoomed in after a brief cutscene, or the numerous times Lara gets stuck in the walking slow phase from said cutscenes and there's no way out of it without killing yourself (you can't shoot or run or anything when this happens). I played from start to finish through that game and didn't encounter anything you're describing or any bugs for that matter. The game is good and very nice looking though.
