It’s sad to see so I’m going to keep a close eye on what GOG do from here.

If you can get a One X for $120 I’d consider that a great deal. I don’t think Xbox’s are particulary great for 4k blurays but if you are playing games too then its good enough.

I like liked the look of Subnautica but because of my thalassophobia I can’t play it. Now I wouldn’t play it anyway after the bullshit that was reported last year.

I’m not a fan of Steam or any launcher really but they have some useful features like friends lists and multiplayer updates. I don’t miss the times of downloading individual patches and having to insert a disc but nowadays has its own problems like “online” requirements for singleplayer and being forced to update. Thankfully GOG exists and some devs still offer DRM free versions and that’s my priority now.

I’m not convinced by the trailer/gameplay we’ve seen so far as it just feels looks so bland to me. Hopefully I’m wrong.

Kingdom: Two Crowns is great fun in co-op.

Yeah I agree with this. Most achievements just don’t have the fun or inquisitive nature they should and are pretty much meaningless.

Completing the Pokedex is pretty cool.

I’ve come close to getting all the capsule toys in Shenmue but in the end it was a lot if reloading saves and eventually I gave up. I barley finish any games so doing extra challenges is even rarer for me :/

I know exactly the trailer you’re talking about. Obviously the game didn’t turn out that way but in my opinion The Division is an under-appreciated gem. It was absolutely awful at launch though and I think it took over a year to fix and adjust the gameplay.

• Games that jump straight into things without letting me see the options menu first.

• Not having the Playstation icons as a preset when I want to use my PS4 controller on PC.

Calling it a horrible game is a bit much.

I don’t think it’s as amazing as people make it out to be but, like you mention, turning off crossplay significantly improves matchmaking and supposedly giving feedback helps balance it even more. Its also a lot more fun with friends but the amount of PVP increases with groups and especially much more with 3 man.

I haven’t played TF2 in a long time. I’ve been following a mod called TF2 Classified which sounds interesting though so might jump on that when it’s released

Have a look at the Heroic Launcher. I remember reading it included a feature to play some Windows games in compatibility mode or something?

Apart from that I guess it’s Geforce Now, Amazon Luna etc…

Looks good so thanks for the recommendation.

I don’t pre-order but I do buy early access games. Unless it’s something genuinely limited edition and unique there is not reason to risk buying before release.

I have mixed opinions on physical media but. I’m starting to agree with you on this point. In the past I’m all for having the option to buy it on disc/cartridge but when you have to install the game anyway and download a day one patch it kinda defeats the purpose of it. Also offline mode on consoles if just a joke at this point.

If I didn’t already have a Miyoo Flip v2 I would buy this version in a heartbeat. The love the clamshell design and portability of these things is a huge upside and I take it everywhere with me. I have been using MinUI on mine and it works great (especially quick save state and resume on open) but after reading your article I decided to change it up and move over to Knulli which has a lot more options.

It’s hard not to in 4 player GoldenEye :D

Yeah I do all that myself with ETS2 but wanted to give another example.

Yeah I guess I am. Just give it to us in a bigger form…
