Does this mean you gave up on Lego Star Wars? ;D

Been jumping between a few games lately.

Witcher 3 (new playthrough)
Horizon Forbidden West
Rocket League
F1
GT7

I bought Elden Ring but can’t understand the hype around it, much prefer the more linear souls games compared to a big open world.

Anyone know where you can get GTA 1 and 2?

I played a lot of GTA2 multiplayer back in the day. The “campaign” is entertaining as well. I liked the respect system they implemented. There was a mission where you had to collect people that would be made into hot dogs.

I went back and played GTA1 last year and it gets old really quick. It was a great little hit of nostalgia but it wore off fast.

GTA3 has that top down camera angle

it's actually quite faithful to the old 2D games that way  ;D

GTA1 is fucking solid without the ability to save. I must have put hundreds of hours into that game when I was a kid and eventually managed to pass the first four levels without cheating but both the Vice City levels are absolutely insane.  No one would make a game that hard these days!

I played a lot of GTA2 multiplayer back in the day. The “campaign” is entertaining as well. I liked the respect system they implemented. There was a mission where you had to collect people that would be made into hot dogs.

Yeah GTA2 never got as much love as it deserves,  a lot of the missions in that game are hilarious. Always used to enjoy the scientist ones!  Adding in the ability to save makes it far more accessible than 1.

Currently playing through the Avengers game on PS5, as part of a free trial of Boomerang rental.

It's a bit samey, eh? Can see myself giving up before completing even though it's only a 10ish hour game.

Is the multiplayer any better?

Nah mate, it’s a pretty bad game altogether. I enjoyed the story for what it was but it became highly repetitive and boring in the end.

Bought the Sports game for the Switch so will be playing that later but I started Hades on the PS5 last night and it’s fantastic! Beat Meg on my 5th run I think.

Switch Sports is great fun. Badminton is fun, the football works surprisingly well and volleyball is also a fun game with friends, although my boys nearly came to blows when playing together… Bowling is as fun as ever.

All the games are fun really.

Been hammering the tennis game today, it’s addictive!

They are adding golf apparently. They could easily do boxing and pool and probably others too.

Just finished Control. Really good game, the mechanics were fun and it was extremely playable. Very much a "just one more mission/checkpoint" experience.

The golf is out in autumn apparently. I’m hoping it’s similar to Mario golf and that they have more than one course or it could get a bit repetitive.

Badminton is the favourite in our house, advanced bowling is a bit mad but a good challenge. They’ve got the controls spot on I think. I’ve still not mastered a decent serve in the tennis!

THPS soundracks were always leaning mostly towards punk rock.
Hip hop was there to spice it up, but was at most 20% of the tunes.

Definitely, just seems to have been loaded up with a bunch of boring soundalike stuff instead of some of the classics from the originals like Ramones and Dead Kennedys.

I'm thoroughly enjoying it too! Just occasionally realise a song is quite irritating but it's great you can skip (and equally great to hear songs played all the way through)
