Inside is a rare example of a perfect game.
Would of paid $100 for it.

Re: Rate the last game you finished
Inside is the highest rated game of the year, tied with Uncharted 4 so it must be good!

Re: Rate the last game you finished
I wouldn't call it an issue, but there are moments of Limbo-style gameplay, particularly the first 10 minutes. But I do agree it's better than Limbo, and I love Limbo. I just don't get it. I clocked the game last night and I enjoyed the heck out of it, but is there some kind of meaning to it? Mind you I don't get the meaning of the simplest poems.Candy Arse wrote:That isn't an issue with Inside. Game is much MUCH better than Limbo
Edited to flesh out review more:
Playdead are seriously good developers. The game has excellent presentation, looks great, controls flawlessly and does so without the need of a single tutorial or any dialogue. Everything just works seamlessly. I will buy anything they produce.
9.5/10

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE
Well, that was certainly an old school JRPG in all respects. Even down to it dragging on too long and overworking it's theme and mechanics. The characters weren't all that interesting either. The fifth chapter was a chore. But the sixth chapter was decent, and ended with a suitably epic final boss battle. It really should have ended with all of the characters singing some joyful song together - missed opportunity there.
Generally, it was colourful and fun though. A trip down memory lane. They don't make many games like this any more.
6/10

Forza Horizon 3
This game was a lot of fun and a joy to play. I really like arcade racers that respect the driving experience, put a great driving experience as the number one priority in the design, and reward proper 'slow into a corner, fast out' physics. The setting is also amazing. The Outback is fantastic. Fake Surfers and Byron Bay felt very surreal and weird. And Mount Tibrogargan in there too! - Sunshine Coast represent! All those classic Aussie cars in there is also great.
What I didn't like was the inconsistent difficulty spikes, where with the same cars and same difficulty settings, you can be first by 10 seconds in one race, then 10th place in the next race. I get that it would have been difficult to balance it completely with the wide open nature of the campaign though. I also didn't like that ultimately it doesn't even matter if you come 1st or last. It kind of made the game feel a bit hollow. These are minor quibbles though that don't detract too much from the awesome.
Some of you guys can be bothered with all the online, cross play, play anywhere, high end rigs, optimizing settings, and I'm cool with that, but it's not for me. I just threw the disk in the Xbone and away I went - just the way I like it.
Best arcade racer since Blur
8/10
Epilogue thought. Great to have true Xbox back. I missed you since pre-Kinect.

Re: Rate the last game you finished
I finished Mad Max on the weekend - a good game surrounded by a lot of repetitive busy work.
The game loop itself is quite enjoyable, but after a while it wears you down, to the point where I just decided after 20 hours to mainline the story through to completion...and the ending is most unsatisfying.
Game looks nice, sounds nice etc, they went all in on the authenticity and the setting but it's just a "good" open world game with Mad Max around it.
6/10

It never was funny to begin with. He's like some kid at school saying the Spectrum is far superior because monochrome.

You seem to have a beef with t0mby as well - sounds like a rough breakup.

Quite possible...but even then I still don't know who the fuck you are
I was going to ask if you were new around here but now I see you joined in 2006! Awkward moment...
Also nice post edit up there GameHED! Maybe do 5 more for good measure.
