drahkon

Timmy, wake up! It's time for another round of "drahkon's (almost) 50 games of 2020" "Leave me alone, you creepy old fuck!" SHUT UP AND LISTEN. There you have it, folks. Tune in next time when I annoy the fuck out of Timmy again.

That seals the deal. Will get this later after I'm done gushing at how ridiculously good Demon's Souls looks

Hm, I did enjoy the demo, though. And Yooka and Laylee are much more likeable characters than those stupid monkeys How does it compare to the SNES DK games, 'cause I love those.

Merry Christmas to all Spend some lovely days with my family. Ate too much, drank too much, slept too much, but who cares My Christmas present has been with me for a while now (the PS5) but I got surprised with some money for a few games from either the PSN store or eShop and a copy of Demon's Souls

This is 12€ on the PSN store. Worth it? Challenging and fun Platinum? @Hero-of-Time Looking for a game that'll take me right out of the inevitable Demon's Souls rage and dread

Got a copy Can't wait to give it a go next Monday.

Managed to reserve a PS4 copy at a local store for 20€. Seems like a decent price. Not sure if I'll pick it up, though. I've played some Yakuza games. Do I have to play a particular one before 7 in order to understand the story?

Ladies and gents, welcome to a new segment called "drahkon's (almost) 50 games of 2020". "Why 'almost', you annoying little shit?" Good question, Timmy. This is because in the app I'm using the "finished-list" currently has 48 entries and some of them are DLCs. "But why not call it 'drahkon's fourty-something-games-plus-DLCs-list'?" Because that's a stupid name, Timmy. Now shut the fuck up and go to your room. I've started using the app Game Backlog to track my gaming progress this year. It's a neat little app that let's you track games you're playing and games you've finished (and even a backlog, if you're willing to put in every single game). Throughout 2020 I've set my limit of games that I'm currently playing to 4 and in the backlog-list I've put down those that I wanted to take a break from. So far, I've finished 48 games ("PLUS DLCs!", screams Timmy right before being struck by a tranquilizer dart) this year. Not too shabby. And yes, we all know @Hero-of-Time has completed 8 million games in the last 72 hours and yes we all know he's a great person and yes we all know that I DON'T GIVE A SHIT. A nice little feature of the app: you can give games a rating (x out of 5) and also write a review. What I've done is: Give a rating and write down a few words about how I felt about each game. And because this is all oh so interesting I've decided to share it with you in the order of completion. So buckle up, people, it's about to get Alrighty. 10 games down. A couple more to go.

It's worse than not being transparent enough. They actually said something like "the game runs surprisingly well on last-gen consoles".

Think I read somewhere that it's already in the works.

Sold my PS4 Pro this morning. I put it up on "ebay Kleinanzeigen" (Gumtree might be the UK equivalent?) for 270€ and got a message from someone asking if he could take a look at the console. Didn't know that that person was a 13 year old kid. His dad accompanied him but he let the kid do the talking/negotiating While he was trying out and inspecting the console I talked to his dad and he said that his son wanted a PS4 for Christmas. He also told me that he'd just be there so his son wouldn't be taken advantage off regarding the price. He wanted his son to handle the transaction because it's his own money. Gotta take matters into his own hands. Kid was happy with the console. He tried Tearaway and it was pretty clear that he never played a console game before I asked him and he said he only had a Game Boy Advance and an old PC up to this point. He asked me if I'd be willing to sell for 200€. I told him that's a little too low, but I'd go for 230€. After a quick look to his dad (and him nodding in approval) he said: "It's a deal!", smiling from ear to ear I packed up the console, told him to let his dad carry it to the car and gave him Tearaway, Dragon Quest Heroes and Rachet and Clank. He asked "how much?" and I told him it's a gift. Seemed to have made his day Looks like somebody has entered the console playground

It is. Been in the mood for a fun arcade racer and found this one in my library. It apparently was a PS+ game a couple years ago. Played a bit and I have to say: I like it

The remaster is on sale for a tenner...reeeeaaaally tempted Played it on the PS3 and loved it. Gonna see if I enjoy Onrush first...if not...I might buy this remaster

In handheld mode you can just plug it in to your Switch. For docked mode...no idea. I just tried it with my DualSense and the 8bitDo adapter, but if I plug in a headset it doesn't work. Sound is still coming out of the TV.

It's on sale on the US PS Store. If you have a US account it might be worth checking out. Especially as you can get US PSN credit for cheap.

Just finished the campaign of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War It was your typical Call of Duty game, but the ending... I refuse to play it again to see the other ending...this is now what the game's story is to me and I love it. Gotta say, I'm a sucker for Call of Duty I enjoy these games quite a lot.

NieR Automata is the better game in literally every category. Astral Chain is an unfocussed mess, but what do I know. @Glen-i thinks I have no taste so...go for it, if it looks enjoyable to you Gotta agree with @Sheikah, if you're into rogue-lites you can spend a lot of money on games...

Don't bother. Platinum has been overrated for a long time now and this tedious mess of a game proves it. Hades is a must-have!

Coincidentally I had a Kinder Egg last weekend. First one in ages. Anyway, thread title should be changed to "N-E chocolate talk"

There are some weird people here...

My German ass read "Kinder" as in the German word for "children" and imagined Miyamoto wanting to build his own Neverland Ranch.

Well... Hopp wasn't there for the first set and half of the second. King played incredible, but gave Hopp a few chances. He wasn't able to take advantage, though

Think I'm going to finish the story soon and then try to sell my copy. The more I'm playing the more I get that nagging feeling that there's an even better version waiting for me Think I'm going to leave my Platinum-journey for the PS5-version
