trying to finish Witcher 3.....it's turning into a bit of a slog

decided to just focus on the main story and forego the question mark hunting and it just goes on and on...the bit I thought was the end is only 3/4 through FFS

just let me retire to a little cottage with Triss and make ginger babies already

Excellent game.

Started playing NHL 16 and Forza 6 today. Early impression on NHL 16 is its a massive step up on the disappointing NHL 15. The build your career from the minors is back, and there is a good coaching feature which for me, one who has struggled with the latter NHL games (used to gun it in NHL '94 lol), this is reassuring.

PES 16.

Be a legend mode is bloody fun and the game play this year is bloody Good. Thank goodness the king is back.

Playing the Rainbow Six Siege beta on PC,not very impressed tbh,don't think i will pick this up at launch

 

[Apey]

Still playing Guild Wars 2... a lot. Expansion comes out next month but it's steep as f**k (~$72) for what doesn't seem like a lot of content. It doesn't have a subscription fee though so I'll probably cave in and go for it.

Madden 16.

I like it, but I can't defend at all, and I'm usually good at defending.

Is it because I'm Oakland, or do I need time to get used to it?

SW:Battlefront Beta is out. Downloading now.

 

[Generalzod]

My son downloaded the beta version of battlefront fantastic game...

Bit of both. I'd recommend the tutorials. The changes to going for intercepts or tackling the player make more sense after the tutorials.

I always start with one of my DL then switch. For an age when I switched I would hold the left stick and ended up moving the player I switched to out of position. once I learned to let go I was better in coverage.

Teams will score though and the opposition will get on a roll at some point in a game. The quality of your team does make a difference.

I think it's because of the Raiders - I started another Franchise as the Seahawks, and it's a little easier.

Unfortunately, Oakland just aren't very good!

Playing EWR lately. Fantasy booking the WWE.

 

[perverse]

Cities: Skylines is everything that Simcity 2013 should have been.

 

[RoosTah]

Alien:Isolation - about a year late to the party, but this thing is a f**king masterpiece of interactive entertainment. It also happens to be the best and most engaging Alien experience since the first movie.

Finally got around to buying a PS4 last night.

Picked up Madden 16 and FIFA 16.

Last Madden game I bought was 08 so struggled to get used to the gameplay until I won my first game (as Dallas against Detroit) with 30 seconds left in the 4th qtr due to a hail mary actually coming off. Had difficulty set to pro until I have got the game down pat.

One little thing I was disappointed in was no deterioration of the pitch (played at Wembley with pissing down rain) and the pitch still looked as new after the game.

Pitch deterioration and players getting dirty are a few of the little things in a game I like.

Also having the updated squads f**ked me over. Having Cassel instead of Romo starting and no Bryant sucked.

 

[Last Week]

I'm playing Madden 16 at the moment and I am absolutely obsessed with Ultimate Team. It's time consuming to get used to and some research is required to know the real market value of players, but it's fantastic. Such a great game. I would pay a fair amount of cash if there could be a NRL game of similar quality with a similar feature.

Also Draft champions is heaps fun too.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Picked up Guitar Hero Live for a bit of fun. Haven't played one of these for years.

The control layout is much better than it used to be and enjoying the setlists.

 

[Firey_Dragon]

Been playing Uncharted Collection on the PS4, still holds up damn well to this day.

On the PC finally got around to getting Project Cars, so much better than on console... And also Party Hard, one of best the $6 I ever spent, pretty addictive.

 

[canberra_raiders2k2]

Be a pro in NFL 16.

Surprisingly a very good and smooth game.

 

[Jono Russell]

Anyone remember Jonah Lomu Rugby on the PS1 that was one of the best Rugby games ever created.

The commentary was also great

"Oh! Mercy me! What a tackle! That could've put him in Ward 4!", followed by "I hope not Bill, that's a maternity ward!"

Wish I was playing that right now.
