Jaysin Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Thanks to the latest Humble Bundle, I was able to get Remember Me and a slew of other games for PS3. Remember Me has been pretty fun so far. Combat is unimaginative so far, but the finishers are pretty awesome and it's coupled with a cyberpunk storyline that's making me happy as heck.

bigtplaystew Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Elite Dangerous is a great game! I didnt buy it yet but its on sale on XB1 so im thinking ill get i to it. Just looks like a massive time sink, which is a good or bad thing depending on how you look at it. Im surprised with all the bashing of No Mans Sky none of those players looked to the Starpoint Gemini series, of which Im a huge fan. It has all the exploration NMS promised and its not as hardcore or "griefy" as Elite Dangerous. The new game is in alpha and still needs a lot of work but I picked up Starpoint Gemini 2 on sale for like 10 bucks and played the crap out of it.

Blackman Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I caved and bought StreetFighter V for 26, which is a decent price, but I was probably better off not doing it as - for a casual fan like me - there's just not much difference between Ultra and this.

Clarity Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Yeah I know, but the first Elite was not in 3D like Freelancer, Freelancer "was" THE space opera game for a time (in 3D) I played Freelancer to death back when it came out.. Had my first 'Grrrrr' moment in Elite. Found a decent set of systems to trade between and getting about 30k a trip.. I then see a 100k trip to get some machinery for them.. Bargain I think.. Getting to that system, and I cant find the planet i need to land on.. Turns out that I haven't scanned the system and everything is unexplored.. I go through planet after planet and when I get to the final one..... INTERDICTED I go in all guns blazing and doing pretty well, until he figures out that im a slow bugger and gets behind me.. I fire up my FSD drive to get away but get blown up mere seconds from escaping... Cargo lost... Planet not found Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn michaels Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Oh man, Freelancer was great. I still have it somewhere, maybe it's time for another go, later on. I did play it like last year or so, again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerdilligaf Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Anyone played the pes 2017 demo yet?I cant stop now i started & got no interest in fifa 17. EA is snagging all the licenses they can get but pes is actually coming back & plays like a dream. I played pes since 95 then switched to fifa but after a couple of hours on the pes demo i lost all intetest in fifa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steesh07 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 <p>I'lol probably give it a try over the next few days, FIFA has become stagnant over the past years and I really am losing interest.</p><p> Has anyone tried the Battlefield 1 open beta, thoughts and opinions? I'm not a fan of it to be fair, too much spawn camping and I am terrible at it despite being okay on Battlefield 4, for the life of me I cannot see anyone and constantly get shot from behind or sniped.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleisch Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Neither Fifa or PES appeal to me this year so it'll be the first year I don't get either. EA have become lazy with Fifa and expect us to buy the same rubbish every year. The new engine is only going to really be obvious when playing "The Journey" (maybe on replays too) which will be played through once. Why would you want to repeat the story again? Pointless waste of disc space that could have been used for the one thing Fifa fans have been crying out for for years, the ability to play a full manager career online with friends. I hate Ultimate team as it is just a con to get idiots to part with hundreds of pounds in real money to eventually get... no one of any significance. Basically (like the pointless womens "mode" last year) The Journey is just a gimmick that fans will become bored with very quickly, before realising they are stuck with Fifa 2016 in a shiny new shell but with all the nonsensical BS from previous games like being hacked down in the box right in front of the referee and not being awarded a penalty before tackling an opposing player and giving away a free kick because your shirt lightly touched his. Until Microsoft give Xbox One owners the same rights Sony do for it's PS4 owners on PES in terms of being able to download the "real" data for the game, I have zero interest in a cluster of real and fictional teams and players. Besides, their game modes are horrendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 In PES's defense, I always loved the Master League. It might lack depth but it's exciting to watch your team grow. Maybe one day they can work in a full manager mode, but you might be underestimating how difficult that could be and how little the mainstream interest would be (unless it's as shallow as it is right now).

Blackman Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Don't get me wrong. I'd be frustrated as well. It's just that... I don't know the players with the exception of the elite - which are always in the game. I wouldn't know the difference. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> I always start with the default fake players of Konami. They have a certain charm to them, and it feels like a complete team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarity Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 <p>EA are obviously trying to compete with 2K's MyCareer mode, but if The Journey doesn't force you into set circumstances on set teams then I think it would do well..</p><p> </p><p> I'd love to see a mode like that appear on their NHL games.</p><p> </p><p> -----------</p><p> </p><p> I've had the trial installed on my Xbox for Ark for a while now and only played it a little.

Blackman Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Just heard some news that does brighten my year as a gamer. The HD editions of the first Bioshocks are free for all Steam owners upon release this week. I was just planning a replay of those (I'm gonna skip Infinite: just didn't like it compared to the others despite it looking beautiful).
