Id hope if anyone would step into Lance Reddicks (very difficult to fill) shoes it should be David Harewood who took over the Mr Door role in Alan Wake 2 and did it superbly.
Anyone who played AW2 can testify to how good he was and in parts channeled Reddick superbly especially in one late game scene
Nikoderiko: The magical world. Only played about 90 mins but it's decent. Mixing DK country returns 2D levels and crash bandicoot style 3d sections (in same stages). It's not as good as Yooka-laylee and the impossible lair but I'm impressed so far.
Also enjoying Return of monkey island on plus. Again not too far in but loving the humour and don't mind the art style
@Fuzzymonkeyfunk I'm glad I'm not the only one who liked it. I got it not long after it came out and loved it. Great game. Shame it is almost certainly never going to get a follow up
I personally believe there's a massive amount of gamers who only have consoles or PC's to get the latest COD, FIFA, madden etc and aren't interested in new IP or anything fresh or innovative.
Uncharted 2 blew me away in 2009 and it's a game that will always stick with me and have a special nostalgia to it. This mario 64, ocarina of time, metal gear solid, soul reaver, the last of us, halo 1, god of war 2018. Arkham asylum, bioshock are all there too.
A masterpiece can get a little dated but if you played it when it was in it's prime you will always remember it
@mac_da_man astro bot was awesome. Got the platinum too and took many many attempts at the master challenge.
Terminator resistance was a really decent game. Great atmosphere. Decent story.
Plucky squire was great but I was expecting more. Too much talking. Too much hand holding. They seemed to go out of their way to drag the experience down
With the review bombing, last if us 2 backlash as they assumed Abby was trans and other petty stuff that's getting reported it makes you ashamed to be a gamer.
Seems there is a large amount of horribly petty gamers out there with too much time on their hands and nothing else going on in their lives. To paraphrase Buzz lightyear. 'You're a sad sad little group....and you have my pity'
@LikelySatan cheers. Appreciate that as can't find anything about patches online. That's the issue with indie games can be difficult to find if they are fixed or not. May have to get this today. If I do I guarantee it'll be on sale on Wednesday. If I don't get it it won't be lol
Today nothing as I'm in a nature reserve with my bird of prey obsessed son but tomorrow I'll get on Epic Mikey maybe start last of us part 1 New game plus
If I find myself with a lull of games I may replay it but likely not. I spent so much time on it in 2017. I couldn't get into forbidden west. Just can't see replaying this unless I have nothing else to play

Re: Throwback N64 Platformer Yooka-Replaylee Looks Dazzling in Upgraded PS5 Remake
@Markatron84 I couldn't beat the actual impossible lair but enjoyed everything up to that point.
Re: Cash Rewards Still Missing for Many from PS5, PS4 Rewards Scheme PS Stars
It keeps saying an error wheni try to accept new terms 🙈
Re: Throwback N64 Platformer Yooka-Replaylee Looks Dazzling in Upgraded PS5 Remake
@JokerBoy322 no. One was a 2d sequel and it was super. The impossible lair
Re: Throwback N64 Platformer Yooka-Replaylee Looks Dazzling in Upgraded PS5 Remake
The problem with the original wasn't it's looks it was it's over big and under filled levels and awkward controls.
I tried it twice and couldn't get into it and I'm massively into 3D platformers
Re: PS5, PS4 Fans Are Worried Cash Rewards Have Been Removed from PS Stars
I had no option for any amount, did an update and alas....no still no option. I'm based in UK.
Really hope it's a bug as been taking advantage of £5 rewards quite a bit.
Re: Rumour: Rayman Remake in Development, Former Prince of Persia Devs Involved
Origins was superb. Legends was even better. Castle rock never fails to make me smile.
Rayman 2 was brilliant too. 1 was good but flawed and couldn't get into 3, it just felt.... off
Re: Preview: LEGO Horizon Adventures Is Looking Like the Best LEGO Game Yet
@sanderson72 yeah agreed. Just felt off.
This isn't made by Travelers tales though

@HRdepartment I tried it but just didn't get it. Just seems like annoying walking point A to point B etc
Re: Like It or Not, This Is Why PS5 Pro Doesn't Have a Disc Drive
@LowDefAl you could look at this as you paid £15 to rent it as you had it and now don't.
I bought it digitally. By the time it's no longer available to me due to that I'm likely in a nursing home not knowing what day it is 😂
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 551
@mac_da_man plucky squire was great but 100% agree about pacing. Way too much stopping pointlessly to talk, too much hand holding.
Hoping they can make a second that has a leap like AC to AC2 where AC felt like a proof of concept for the sequel
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 551
@Maubari now just hope you enjoy it lol.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Silent Hill 2?

Looks awesome
Always some sad cretins putting ridiculous scores. Embarrassing

@DTfearTheBEARD
Alan wake 2 is awesome.
My game of last year. Enjoy
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 550
@DTfearTheBEARD go with still wakes the Deep.
It's something different and it's superb.
Alone in the dark is a poor mans silent hill unfortunately. It's not bad but it's buggy and not scary and quite a bit lacking in most departments
Re: Acclaimed PS5 Platformer Astro Bot Really Couldn't Be Selling Any Better
@RoomWithaMoose id love a new ape escape or even a ground up remake of the first game
Re: Acclaimed PS5 Platformer Astro Bot Really Couldn't Be Selling Any Better
Hope it sells shed loads so we get a 2nd.
Hard to put in words just how much I love this game.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for October 2024?
Monkey island and Dino crisis for me
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for October 2024?
@sorteddan little hope was good until the ending.
I personally think Devil in me was the best.
Need to retry house of ashes as didn't get into it

@FinneasGH @colonelkilgore the one game in the series I couldn't get into. Not sure why. May try a 3rd attempt sometime
Re: 14 More Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
@zupertramp I couldn't get into house of ashes. May need to try it again
Re: 14 More Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
@zupertramp it's their best game since the original until dawn
Re: Over 2,800 PS5, PS4 Games Score Discounts of Up to 90% Off

Fun from what I've played

Return to monkey island and a Dino crisis for me 😀

Re: Until Dawn Is One of Sony's Worst Performing PC Ports to Date
@somnambulance was about to say pretty much the same thing.
They should have just kept it on PS4 and 5. We appreciated it
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 549

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 549
@LikelySatan I saw a review on gaming bolt that said that but a few of the comments said it had been fixed.
I'll look into it more as wouldn't able to ignore that
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 549
Nearly done with Epic Mikey rebrushed. Such an improvement on the original. It's better in every way.
May get Akimbot next. Looks decent and not a bad price for an indie ratchet homage
Re: Promising 3D Platformer The Smurfs: Dreams Gets Playable Demo on PS5, Available Now
Smurfboy a big adventure

7/10. All guesses were wrong guesses. Rarther do that then spend over 6 mins googling the answers 🤣

Re: Poll: Did You Pre-Order a PS5 Pro?
There's no option for I want one but not at that price
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn PS4's Price Doubles After PS5 Remaster Announcement
Knocking the price up like this is scummy as hell.
I think I claimed it when it was on the COVID free games but I'm unlikely to upgrade as just can't see replaying it.
For those complaining about them remastering it just realise no one is making you buy it
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn PS5 Wins Over PlayStation Fans

Brilliant. Such good games.
Re: Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed (PS5) - Substantial Updates Paint Over Flaws of Beloved Platformer
I think making the original a Wii exclusive in 2010 was a mistake. It would have been better as a multiformat release.
My youngest is mad on the epic Mikey series and I recently played a bit of the Wii original and then the ps5 demo.
The PS5 version is better in every way as the camera and controls on the Wii original are so bad it's untrue
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2?
Not played this but it looks great (not voted obviously).
It seems to me in these polls there's always some sad cretin putting a 1. Don't see the point (in them and them putting a 1)
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 547
Got the platinum on Astro Bot on Thursday. Such a great game.
On Plucky which is great but after Astro nothing is as fun lol
