Gaming

[Mower Liberation Front]

Soooo... GTA VI in 2025.
I'll believe that when I see it. Still way too much money being raked in from clowns buying GTA Online cash cards for Rockstar to go all out on making that date.
Though since it's set in Vice City, maybe we'll get V-Rock back as one of the stations.

I'll play it. I already know it'll be a dlc fest bullshit exercise of such an order that will send me back to the c64 but morbid curiosity will surely have me look at it the once at least.

Gaming is fucked for lads like me really

Grabbed the tomb raider remasters the other day and they are fucking broken ta fuck. They'd want to get it patched fairly soon because it's actually unplayable as it is. Fuck sake I was really looking forward to these as well

[astfgyl]

So I downloaded the Tomb Raider trio to the ps5 instead of the 4 and they're spot on now.

Happy days, I'm flying through the first one

They had the full Tomb Raider collection up to Rise on Steam last year for something like €20.

Was great to go through the first three again. I'd forgotten how shit The Last Revelation is though, great story but the amount of backtracking and aimless running around  if you miss one little thing got so irritating

Got a bit burnt out on them by the time I was halfway through Chronicles, must go back and finish them off soon

Got FFVII Rebirth.

Now just need to get a PS5.

I don't have a pc capable of gaming on and I'm always seeing great deals on Steam that I can't have 

I've only ever played as far as revelations and got stuck on the ireland level so bad that I didn't finish the game at all, even with the game guide back in the day. First 3 were always decent though

Not in response to anything here, more of a related thought after talking to my friend.

Modern games, be it story mechanics or general feeling are pure shite. Of course there are good games that have come our, more ghe big stuff, but I haven't had a good experience at all. I tend to go back to older games or independent ones. Rough around the edges is fine as long as there's something there. All the same shit.

I think it's true for some, but mikes away from all games. Last few I played were Tekken 8, Sekiro, Rollerdrome, and Helldivers 2.

All great, all very different and well polished, and all will absolutely cane you without learning and engaging with the mechanics.

I think a lot of games try to be all things to all people and when they don't, people complain. Then there's such money behind them that they can't be allowed to fail.

I'm also very much against online gaming like fortnite for the young fellas here because it almost instantly ruins them when they do get near them.

If it can't be paused and walked away from for a few minutes then it's a no from me

Young fellas picked up modern warfare 2 remake for the ps5. Grand job, put it on there says I. Cue 168gb download first or you can't play it. Fuck sake I felt like smashing the disc

Yep 168. Even with the fast broadband that's ridiculous. I don't even know if that's just the game or the whole system had to update to play the fucking thing

Will be 212 by the end of the season in September if Mw2 is anything to go by.

Activision are divils for compression.
