Who remembers buying fake games from the bloke down the pub for the PS1? But to play it, you had to switch discs during the load up so all fake PS1 games came with a spring to keep the button pressed in whilst the lid was open? The good old days!

Never had an N64. I know lads who did. But I've always been PlayStation. Didn't own a game boy either, tbf. I had a Sega Game gear.
I remember lads at school playing Goldeneye, but for me, it was all about GTA, GTA London, Twisted Metal, and Fifa 98.

I had a Gameboy and a Game Gear. Still have actually.
The secondary school friendship group was about a 50/50 N64 Playstation split, but when it was time for some multiplayer it was the lads with N64s houses that we always ended up at.
FIFA 98 was a great FIFA game, specifically for the indoor.

Played a fair bit of Kingdom Come 2 now, a lot of fun for going exploring/sneaking around, but the quests themselves can be tedious and a bit of a ball ache. I've mostly completed those at a snail's pace while just roaming around.

I tried to get into it but sold my copy very quickly. I know it has gotten a lot of good critic and user scores but I found it very boring with shit combat and not the best graphics tbh.

As someone who doesn't really touch games post mid-2000s the graphics still look top notch to me. I do find quests boring to complete but that's just par for the course with this genre of game.

Firing a bow and arrow is basically impossible unless you do it at point blank range in my experience

So ive given the Witcher 3 a good go and just dont seem to be able to get into it. The combat feels a bit clunky and I keep pressing the wrong buttons! Ill more than likely go back and give it another go at some point and enjoy it (I didnt get on with Hogwarts Legacy at first but really enjoyed it when I re-visited it). But for now, ive managed to get Assasins Creed Shadows for £20 on Vinted so im just installing that as its just arrived! I love the stealth of Assasins Creed games and loved Ghost of Tushima so hoping this combines the 2.

I found the witcher 3 got significantly better when you leave Velen.

Ill revisit it at some point! Sometimes it takes me 2 or 3 attempts to get in to a game. Especially when ive been playing a different game for so long.

Witcher 3 is a top 5 RPG of all time imo. I would deffo recommend giving it another chance. AC: Shadows was way better imo than some people thought. Do hate Ubisoft scrapped the AC set during the Civil War though smh.

to be honest it took me 2 attempts. Once it clicked - i was hooked. There is a lot of content though. i mean a lot.

I've just downloaded the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 trial on the playstation - i'll give it a bash later. Couldn't get on board with the first initially. But i'll have another bash at that at some point.

Is AC: shadows the same as every other AC? I had Valhalla - But it just went on...

Will be interested to see what you think of it, I played with no experience of the first one and didn’t even notice I had ‘perks’ available to use. Suspect you will enjoy it as from what I heard, they sorted out the issues from the first one.

Has most of the same elements as that is what Ubisoft does but overall I think it was a refreshing entry for the series and I think the main essence of the missions if you will, were not as monotonous.

This one I also love playing for the road trips and scenery. The occasional killing when I get bored.



Used to play this with my mates on co-op. Stick the flying cars cheat on and try to take down a police helicopter in kamikaze mode.

Greatest of all time

Playing High on Life atm. Only a couple of hours in but I know quickly if I'm going to drop off something and I reckon I'm going to stick with this. It's pretty unique which is good with so many samey games around these days.

Put some hours into far cry 3 this week. Do love far cry games.

They are all on game pass. I've done the story mode in them all now I think!

The novelty wore off pritty quick for me tbh. Did about 6-8 hours.

6-8 hours is a half decent play time for me these days. I'll see how far I get.

Just started playing Ghost of Yotei on my PS5 but now also want to play Outer Worlds 2 on XBox - too much choice

I've gone through the trial. I really like the story and the world. The combat really does take some getting used to but i'm putting this on the list to buy when it comes down in price! Will be buying it.

I've got £8 on the PS store, might buy the first one to get the story.

I got it from CD Keys for less than half price (about £20). The combat is tough with my laptop and mouse as stuff like ‘dodging’ is quite fiddly.

So what I’ve taken to instead is coating weapons with poison which levels the playing field. Best not to pick fights with many enemies out in the open though.

Anyone else bothered with FM26?

Come out this week - Unsure what to make, it doesn't seem as slick and easy to navigate as the old ones

The in-play graphics are better granted but I would just play FIFA if I was that arsed about them

Can't say I am really, there's only so many times I can do the usual of leading Cov to Champions League glory before it gets boring.

I got so good at it, the FA offered me a role in the English setup.

Fuming!!! Absolutely bloody fuming!!!
So, RDR2 is my all time favourite game. I love it. Played it many times. Never tire of the story. Its like watching your favourite film again and again over the years.
However, ive never played Red Dead 1. And I've looked at it a fair few times but still at £50 I refused to pay it. I wasnt paying £50 for a PS3 game. Granted, it had had a PS4 remaster, but the graphics still looked ropey and slow.
Until last week, when I heard there was a PS5 remaster taking it up to 4K and 60fps. And what a result, its in the sale! 50% off! £25, and a free upgrade to PS5 remaster too! Winner!
Only to find out today, no more than 4 or 5 days after paying £25 for it, its available on PS Plus FOR FREE!!!!! What a bunch of cunts!! Every last fucking one of them!!!!
