You’ve got to finish Frozen Wild. Not just for the great story, but also to encounter the freeze and fire claws LOL. The final boss fight is the most rage inducing but deeply satisfying gaming experience I’ve had in a long time. I'll get on it soon, lol. Sounds like tremendous pain and suffering. 2 hours ago, PleaseBlitz said: I feel like 4 very much let me get my moral depravity on. That's the difference between you and me, PB.

purbeast Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I might grab MS Flight Simulator. The scenes in the trailer flying over the beaches and Bora Bora specifically may have been what sold me on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final boss fight is the most rage inducing but deeply satisfying gaming experience I’ve had in a long time. this is the only time in the game across 4 different runs that I actually had to farm for supplies. Had to go back down to safety and load up a couple different times for ropecaster and sling ammo to get through that mother****er on the hardest difficulty. Frozen Wilds is the best DLC I can remember playing but it’s so satisfying when you can start handling these tougher enemies. Some of the most rewarding and fun gameplay ever for me with a great story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re in for a treat. That first one is crazy atmospheric and haunting with a terrific story. Infinite is a ton of fun as well and has a better story imo tho loses a lot of the atmosphere that made the first two so special being set under the sea. Most FPS don’t make you think about philosophy, economic theory, religion, racism, etc but these do 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is me with all supplies, and the Zero Dawn armour on ultra-hard. Ass whooping, every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is me with all supplies, and the Zero Dawn armour on ultra-hard. Ass whooping, every time. my new game + ultra hard run I went with the new stealth armor that damn near makes you invisible when you add stealth mods to it too. That was my play style completely different from the warrior of previous runs. I was all stealth and letting enemies fight each other and picking off what was left. Went up to frozen wilds for the first time in my stealth gear and got one shot by that scorcher at the top of the mountain when you first climb up there. Had to change strategies right away to the Zero Dawn armor so I could make it through the first hit at least. Thought maybe I could switch back but not with the daemonic machines everywhere. **** was brutal. So I stealthed my way around and anytime I saw a purple hue or walked up on a fire claw or something it was immediate armor switch. Some of those control towers were hell too. But I loved that world. Favorite part was probably the dam area with the hundreds of snapmaws Edited July 27, 2021 by Momma There Goes That Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickyJ Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I wrapped up all my Halo Master Chief games and had to choose whether to double down on Jedi or start Detroit Become Human. I chose the latter. I thought people were joking about being so invested in doing their household chores ingame compared to IRL, but it's true. I have never been so interested in turning on a roomba and mopping the bathroom floor. The game also did a great job of showing what a dying city looks like. In the intro, one of the characters passes through the suburbs of a city in the car. It looks so ramshackle and burned down. I thought to myself, "heh, I bet that's what Detroit looks like". Then I remembered that that's literally the title of the game. So yeah, bonus points to them for being believable. And bonus points for Lance Henriksen. From Admiral Hackett to an artist in a wheelchair. He did both well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 So far thru my run of 360 games... Fallout 3: Still feel like it has potential for my tastes, but the beginning was, um, kinda weird. The ridiculous adult-quiz topped it off. What the f*** was the point of that whole segment? Bugs the size of 45 lb plates infest a fallout shelter? I just got out of the vault, so I'm not judging the game. Seems like a lot of tongue in cheek silliness already. Going to take a break before taking on the open world. Rainbow Six Vegas 2: I am usually not a fan of games with the wall/cover-hugging mechanic. Save for GTA, off the top of my head. I still don't use it much in that series. Breach and clear is not my thing either, which happens in this game a lot. I stopped playing halfway in to the second level, for now. Star Wars The Force Unleashed II: Dude! This game is a beat 'em up game! Shoulda seen my face when that suddenly hit me. I lit up like a kid on Christmas morning and started laughing my ass off. Woo! I grew up on button mashing my way thru thousands of mfs. This has a lot more technique involved, but it's still a dumb ole button masher! There are little things that annoy me, like the finishing moves for the mechs and walkers always being the same, and the annoying little spider droids...but this game is fun as hell! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Excuses Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Horizon Forbidden West delayed to Q1 2022, making me feel better about striking out on a PS5 every month.

Dr. Do Itch Big Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Spider-Man was cool but I wouldn’t buy a ps5 for it. Only reason I played it was because Spider-Man came with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 MS Flight Simulator not only being upscaled 4k (and only temporarily), but also only being 30fps, on Xbox Series X, is a joke. Supposed to be the most powerful console ever and is a flagship first party title and can't even hit the 4k@60fps that they are claiming this gen is all about.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Flight simulator is a flagship title? I thought this was just some game people played in tech class when they had nothing to do. anyway, this is a day 1 buy. I love cats 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickyJ Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I'm 3/4 of the way through Detroit Become Human. This is my best purchase since Red Dead II came out. I'm going to have to get those other games in the series when the next sale comes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
