Re: Back catalogue thread
Spec Ops is definitely worth it. Only takes 7 or so hours to play through on normal. I'll play it again one day. There's another list - the games you want to replay but never will due to long back catalogue.

Re: Back catalogue thread
Haha, I have a backlog on PSone with a few titles like Bushido Blade 1&2, Wip3out amd a couple of others. Pretty sure one of the house sitters stole my chipped PSX when I was in UK or Adelaide.

Re: Back catalogue thread
Half of my fucking collection is a backlog of games I haven't played but want to (Panzer Dragoon Saga, Secret of Mana) or games I want to go through again because I love them (Dragon Force, Chrono Trigger).
Then there's the shit on my PC
Instead I'll just play more SF5 and then Marvel vs Capcom when it comes out....any probably ANOTHER run through Witcher 3 because best game ever etc.

IMO, no game has bettered Secret of Mana. It was the Witcher 3 of its time.

Re: Back catalogue thread
Way too long and embarrassing
Currently playing: Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition (PC), Far Cry 4 (PC), FIFA 23 (Series X)
Re: Back catalogue thread
Hotline Miami. Steam refund the rest except maybe xcom.
If you really are going to play them, you will buy them the day you start them. Problem solved.
In other black pot and kettle news, my list is massive. The two that always scream at me are oddworld: new 'n tasty and Guacamelee. The rest are stuff I kid myself I'm going to play should probably just fuck off but don't (often because they were so cheap a refund is futile).

Re: Back catalogue thread
My backlog: 0
I'm currently chipping away at Persona5. I think I'm about half way through.
I'm tempted to buy Tekken7, but have resisted. I'll probably pick it up cheap down the track.
For me, the trick is always to never let my backlog be more than 2, which usually happens around Sep-Dec. In some specific circumstances, I'll let it grow to 3.
If games come out that I want, but I don't have space in my backlog, I straight up don't buy them.
This has sortof led to a 'secondary list' of stuff that I often pick up cheap at a later date when there is lulls in new releases.
Let me help you there with your list Pepp.

There done. You should play those two. Funnily enough both of those were ones that I picked up later to fill lulls, and in the case of XCom it was my retrospective 2012 goty.Peppermint Lounge wrote: Binary Domain

Re: Back catalogue thread
My backlog is big. But when the aliens arrive, you could probably pay them off to leave you alone by offering them games where humans kill aliens and they will invite you to their planet to share their collection of games with you where aliens kill humans.
Some of the games include:
Far Cry Primal
Horizon Zero Dawn
X-com 2
Final Fantasy 15
Dark Souls 3 GOTY
your mom (too big to list all the games like her)
Generally I tend to speed play through games unless it is open world.
Zelda BOTW is GOTY. Better than Witcher 3. Boomy agrees with me that Witcher 3 is overrated. The combat in the game is not as fun as Dragon's Dogma or Darksiders or Dark Souls or Monster Hunter games. Sorry candy but its true. Nobody respects you enough to tell you because you are moderator and you might ban them like you do Rocco when he is winning a debate.
there are a few Call of Duty games like COD infinite and Black ops 3. I want to get these done early since they are short campaigns. Nioh, The Surge, Prey are waiting to be played soon. And I intend to play Dragon's Dogma again when the re-release comes out for nostalgia. Also intend to replay Darksiders 1 and 2 HD before I start Darksiders 3 which is being made as we speak. (These games would be perfect if they release to Switch. All the last gen stuff should be ported to it so you can play on the go)

Re: Back catalogue thread
Far Cry 3 should be the first one you knock out just for the crazy villain at the start of the game alone. Didn't that guy end up on Breaking Bad or something after he got noticed for his stuff in FC3? I think him and the bad guy with glasses in the 80s Robocop movie are the creepiest bad guys in game/movies. Clarence Bodicar would probably win in a outcrazy contest though.

"Problem. Cops don't like me, so I don't like cops. Na Na Na Na Na, NA NA NA NA NA NE NAAA." Blam! "Well give the man a hand!" (after shooting arm off) - 2nd best line ever
Hopefully the guy in FC3 makes a return for Far Cry 5. (as a different character)

Re: Back catalogue thread
Elf, Tekken 7 is a rip off but fucking awesome. The deluxe version has so many costume customization options (animal heads and colour options too) that online is just madness; you run into some really creative stuff. I've put more time than I'd like to admit into playing with my tekken dolls, ha. The online community is really thriving, I have spotted so many regular SFV players in the ozhadou group playing this instead. I hope, for your sake, it hasn't faded by the time you get on board. I do not regret this purchase.

Re: Back catalogue thread
Thanks for the impressions Boomy. I look forwards to your thoughts aswell Candy.
So many good impressions of T7. Arrrgghhhh. I don't need this pressure!
I can see me caving when I'm on E3 holidays next week.

This War of Mine is brilliant, but it'll make you feel like necking yourself after a while. It really gets to you.
Wolfenstein: The New Order is pretty damn great.
Gone Home. Ehhhhhhhh I didn't like it, and I felt completely ripped off by the sudden, anticlimactic ending.

I'm still chipping away at Alien Isolation since it released in 2014. Man that game overstays it's welcome come the later half.

Meanwhile I've leaned you can quick save FC3/Blood Dragon when out on the field tooling around. I was playing Blood Dragon on the weekend, collected a bunch of stuff, saved along the way via the menu, got one-shotted by a laser shooting large animal and the game loaded back at the mission hub. Fuck that.

Re: Back catalogue thread
If you like FC3 you might also like 4 as well. You get grapplehook in that. (this is the hilly terrain game like Skyrim)
FC3 however has the better antagonist. Still haven't played FC Primal yet. Anyone else gotten through it yet?
I think the next step after Far Cry 5 is going to be playing as an alien that is dumped onto other planets and you must hunt other alien species down similar to the theme in Predators. You have spear, boomerang, and shoulder plasmacannon and you sneak by going invisible to hide. They've done everything already. Nothing is going to top 5 because it will be Red Dead Redemption for the FC series. They will have to change the setting to get people to notice like they did with Primal.
They can't dare put in muslim cults or they will get bombed. That's why they have to go after christian cults in 5 to attack murica. I feel sorry for the french. Le Penn losing means doom. Rednecks might even boycott the game but if they make sure to not attack christianity itself, (just the extreme cults that formed around it) they should be fine.
There are many cults with abuse and this is the theme they need to focus on: killing the leaders of the brainwashing not the people who are victims of the cults. If you were born into one, your options are limited since you can't escape it if you are not in power to break out.
Read the book by Misty Griffin "Tears of the Silenced" to educate yourself about these cults and warn your kids to keep away from them. Evil is in all the organised religions. (not just cults)
