Needed a hobby to get into and new games to discover as next gen has been a major flop so far, to me, so I bought a gaming pc. I don’t have the time or energy right now to focus on building one, having just started a new career, so I just found the best set up I could find with limited knowledge.
Got a liquid cooled cyberpowerpc with a 10th gen 10 core i9 10850, 3.6 ghz (up to 5.2), 16 gigs of ram upgraded to 32, 1.5 TB on two M.2 NVMe (added a TB), and 2 Tb HDD and an RTX 3070.
It’s amazing. Series X likely going to be sold off. I’m only keeping my PS5 for exclusives.
Chernobylite is pretty cool, Enderal is cool, Metro Exodus looks unreal, and old games like Jade Empire are on my list as well.
Sorry guys’n’gals… But I really believe the Doom Eternity is THE ONE!
It’s more than just a game, it’s a work of art, it’s a new philosophy, it’s fkkn killer timekiller : )
Would love to see something which can be as kool as DOOM! : )
Reviews for Psychonauts 2 are beginning to show up and they pretty unanimously praise the game. While I cannot recommend it, as I haven‘t played it yet, this for me is the most anticipated sequel ever.
I actually hated the new mechanics at first, and put the game down for a few months. I approached it again with a more open mind the next time, and I have to say, it really is pretty amazing. I couldn’t put it down after that. It also looks absolutely gorgeous with the new RTX patch. Doom 3 is still my favorite, just because the setting was much darker, I liked the survival aspects, etc. but Eternal is right up there with it now. (I also loved 2016, but now I think I like Eternal just a tiny bit more.)
I MUST get this immediately. I think the first one is probably one of the most played games in my household. The kids replay it once a year more or less, and it still makes me laugh to this day. Can’t wait to play the second one.
I picked up Axiom Verge 2 on the Switch. I’ll grab it on Steam when it eventually hits there as well. I hate Epic, so I won’t buy it from their shop.
Anyway, it’s very different from the first, while still maintaining a similar feel. I think I prefer the setting of the first one a bit, but this one is incredibly good as well. Definitely recommend it.
I had the chance to spend an hour or so with the PS4 version running on a PS5 and it clicked right away. It just oozes creativity and the love for video games all over. If anything, it’s me who’s now 16 years older and priorities have shifted, but still I’m very much looking forward to playing more of it.
I managed to play for a couple more hours and it’s really more of what made the first part so memorable for me. Quirky, likable characters that really come alive and a ton of funny little details, left, right and center. It’s got a bit of a retro supervillain vibe to it, which is subtly underlined by the soundtrack.
Gameplay wise it’s solid, but not spectacular, though some ideas are nothing short of brilliant. Same in the graphics department. It’s very well designed, but without gratuitous use of eye candy. I love it so far.
I’ve been giving Apple Arcade a little whirl. Shinsekai: Into the Depths is pretty enjoyable if you like Metroid-vania type games. The underwater environment is very relaxing. Best with headphones and a good controller.
