What is there to think about? There's only one choice: My Name is Mayo 2

Well...I just bought a PS4 copy. Can't wait to get back home later tonight and give it a go on My PS5

Looks like I might actually have more free time a few days before Christmas... NOOOOOO. DON'T TEMPT ME Kinda want to pick up a PS4 copy next Wednesday...

Gotta say, the most recent iteration of Modern Warfare did quite a good job with that. Yes, it's CoD but I thought the stealth/night/dark-ops missions were awesome and very well done. Nothing new, but executed really well.

Shit has hit the fan here in Germany. 30k new cases today. Average of 25k/day the last few weeks. Another hard lockdown is inevitable. "Thankfully", my family members and I already were affected by Covid-19, so for us 4 Christmas won't be a problem. I will most likely put myself into isolation aside from that, though. Maybe celebrate New Year's Eve alone. With some video games, food and drinks

100% agreed. I will fight anyone who says that Titanfall 2 isn't the greatest FPS ever made.

That...looks...AWESOME. Still can't believe that Housemarque is making a rogue-lite-bullet-hell-3rd-person-shooter. It's like a dream come true. Only thing that could make this game better is if they put in some kind of deck-building mechanic Anyways...easily my most anticipated game right now. Day-one. No pants. All day.

Never played a Perfect Dark game, so for me this is an "oh...ok"-announcement. I hope it'll deliver so fans will be pleased

They really are masters of their craft. Watched some footage and it's astounding. To see something like this this early in the new (now current) generation...the future is looking good

Given the impressions I'm happy I don't have time to game these days. Will definitely get this next year when it's optimized for PS5 Hey now..."insane" is a strong word

Gonna ask this here, 'cause I don't think it warrants its own thread: I may want to buy a new TV/monitor. My current monitor is 23 inches so a possible new one should be between 28 and 32 inches. Not interested in 4k 'cause I doubt it'll be in my budget (around 200€). Can anyone recommend me a TV/monitor with those conditions?

Decided to install this on my PS5. I needed this game back in my life Still on my journey to reach Ascension 10 with all characters (at least on the console version) and on my third run last night I managed to do it with The Silent. Catalyst deck. gg ez I'm away from my PS5 for the weekend but thank goodness I got the game on my Switch. On this version I beat Ascension 10 with the first three characters and now I'm on Ascension 4 with The Watcher. Still having trouble with her...can't wrap my head around her mechanics, but I'm getting there.

I don't do PC gaming. I could give the Vita version a go, though. But...too much to play *leaves again so H-o-T doesn't get mad*

Labyrinth was the shit back in the days.

There has been new stock over here in Germany, apparently. Looks like it's sold out everywhere already There's a cue over at gamestop How great would the next-gen launch have been if it wasn't for the pandemic Microsoft and Sony are still selling a shit-ton (i.e. everything they have) but I feel production could've been much higher without the virus rampaging through the world.

A surprisingly large number of people I know seem to think that the vaccine(s), which will hopefully be approved soon, are highly dangerous and don't want to get vaccinated. My efforts to explain to them how the mRNA vaccines are less dangerous than what we usually get are in vain. Thankfully, none of my friends think that way. Sadly, my mom is always very suspicious of side effects. No matter what her doctor prescribes her, she always looks up all possible side effects...and of course, some of them are quite severe. This usually means: "Nah, I don't need it...too dangerous" Makes me sad and occasionally quite angry...especially because it's the same with the new vaccine... She did, however, tell me that she wants to get vaccinated. But she will definitely read up on all side effects... Very grateful that this is the only problem with my mom, though She's not adverse to science and medicine in general and doesn't deny the pandemic.

This is why I could never get into those games. Didn't like that system. Which ones? And what mechanics do they use instead?

This game annoyed the fuck out of me initially because of frame drops, unbalanced (and unfair) items and lots of bugs. Now a patch has been released and I'm ready to give it another go Will try it out over the weekend. The first time I'll actually use my Switch after finishing Super Mario Sunshine in October.

This is out now for 20 bucks. I remember buying the Vita version for a few € during a sale but never actually played it that much. I wasn't into traditional rogue-likes back then. I still haven't played many of those games. The Switch version will be something to look out for in a future sale

First PS4 game I completed on my PS5: Sniper Ghost Warrior 3. No problems at all. In fact, the load times are much better (still atrocious...the game is not very well made from a technical standpoint ). Next "project": Persona 5. I got the base game free in the PS+ Collection so I figured: why not?

Hey hey, I'm still playing PS4 games, too. But I'll post in the PS5 thread just because I can

There it is. The second Platinum I got while playing on a PS5. This time it's from a PS4 game: Sniper Ghost Warrior 3. Did I enjoy it? Yes, the missions and shooting gameplay are good fun. Did I enjoy going for the Platinum? Kind of. The collectibles were a tad annoying. Anyways, the game is a solid 6/10. Good gameplay, but the open world is entirely unnecessary. Already know what to play next: Persona 5.

Played about 4 hours of No Man's Sky on PS5 this week to wind down in the evenings. Such a relaxing game (aside from the first 30 minutes when it's a constant struggle for survival ). Deleted my base, i.e. the one you have to build for the main quest, so my mate and I will be able to build one from scratch together. Yesterday we tried coop. Setting it up is simple: Just invite your friend. However, the coop kinda suffers from one major flaw: Quests only progress for you. Which means you gotta do everything yourself. It kinda makes sense, given the amount of stuff the game teaches you, but it's a pet peeve of mine... Anyways, my mate's first arrival on a planet, narrated by him and me (loosely transcribed by me): This is gonna be fun Regarding Sniper Ghost Warrior 3: I think I'm halfway through the main quest. Also found at leat 50% of the collectibles. Looks like I'm going for the Platinum after all. What do I think about the game? Gameplay is quite fun. Very slow, but the gunplay is great. At least for the sniper rifles. Sidearms are very clunky. Not sure if the open world is doing the game any favours. I feel like structured missions in large but enclosed areas would suit the game more. "Hey drahkon, what about the story and characters?", you ask. (spoilers follow...not that you'd want to play the game for the story anway...) "Sit down and let me tell you what I know: I play as a military/marine/whatever the fuck guy. I have a brother. I see him being taken away during a mission. 30 seconds into the quest of finding him I realized that the only outcome will be: My brother is somehow the enemy. There are other characters in play: Some blond chick who apparently was the love of my life but something went down and fucked everything up. Other characters include: a couple of voices I hear on a communication device. Neat. A war is currently taking place, too. Or a fight between some factions? Or there's some bigshot motherfucker pulling some strings? I don't know, I don't care. I skipped all the cutscenes and barely listened to anything those boringass characters keep talking about. Also: There's some weird genetic manipulation thing going on...23 society. I'm dead serious...my brother apparently is a super solider now." Anyways, that's where I'm at with the story

Oh, Just Cause 4. Interesting. Doubt it has uncapped fps, though...been playing a lot of games at 60 fps and going back to 30 with Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 isn't very enjoyable
