I'm sure I'd find it less horrible if I could understand the menus, or my pride let me put the difficulty to the baby mode. It might yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 The new consoles might be horrendously ugly, but the almost complete silence from them is fantastic. My external HD drives make more noise than the consoles themselves now I turned on my original model 360 recently and was convinced it was about to take off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 After finishing the plot of God of War, and knowing that actually finishing everything else and earning the platinum will probably take three times as long, I'd like to offer the Zero Punctuation review as a prelude to my own: Abridged version: Game is arse in literally every way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Why are Blizzard marketing their pay-to-win Diablo game to black metal/goth bands? Really strange advert. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2B48z3ivL4 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Finally installed Fifa 22 after it was one of the free games on Playstation Plus a few months ago. I've not played a Fifa game for a good few years (other than the odd game on my wee boy's Switch). f**k me it's bad. When did these games become so slow? Nothing feels natural about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave up on them sometime in the early 2000s. I even bought a cheap copy of FIFA 18 to simulate the World Cup on here. Never actually played it, and I was so bored at the time that I was playing out virtual football matches for a bunch of strangers on the internet. I did, however, install Sensible World of Soccer a while back, and that really has not got old. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted August 23, 2022 Author Share Posted August 23, 2022 Recently dug out Minecraft and had been making characters that the eldest likes Mario, Sonic etc. Had done a good job at them I thought and were pretty cool. Had made a massive airplane years ago and had almost completed Jack Skellington sitting on one of the wings. The youngest turned the PS5 at the plug and when I put it back on the data was corrupted. Hours and years of data completely gone in an instant. Absolutely fucking furious doesn't cover it tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played Saints Row since the second one either so it's been a while. I downloaded the Tony Hawks remaster from PS Plus a few days ago and I'm really enjoying it, brings back a lot of memories! I also got the Yakuza game on PS Plus but still to try that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried a few hours again tonight on coop with a mate Crashed 3 times Glitches such as enemies not spawning, including the police being unable to enter a vehicle with your friend. Events disappearing off the mini map Customisations just disappearing mid game If you die you’re spawning at the other end of the map from your friend.

Developers releasing an unfinished/unpolished product and patching it to f**k over time to fix it to an acceptable standard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) I've seen ads for the new Saints Row online and it looks like a focus-grouped Fortnite clone. It looks unbearable enough even if it were actually functional. In other equally heartening news, the PS5's price is going up because of the world: https://blog.playstation.com/2022/08/25/ps5-price-to-increase-in-select-markets-due-to-global-economic-environment-including-high-inflation-rates/ Two years since it released and not only can I not get one, I can't afford and don't need one. It's a great console generation, this. Edited August 25, 2022 by Miguel Sanchez 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
