I'm typing this message by prodding the keys with a stick held in my mouth. I was born without limbs, and play games by operating the controller using only my mouth. Playing GTA V i allows me to experience what it feels like to have arms, legs, etc. I should have entered the compo. Congrats to the winners!

Without the EG article I would not have been made aware of GamesAnimal TV show 1
Having been made aware, and having read the EG article, I had no choice but to watch it, if only to form an opinion.

Agreed, there was no need for the bikini babes bit at the end. Maybe teenage boys will lap it up. Then again, maybe not, what with hardcore only a click away. Was I offended by the bikini babes? ..not really. As for 480p resolution, it didn’t really bother me, given 95% of the show featured a bloke sitting on a couch. It wouldn’t take much effort to up the resolution. Audio also could be improved. Maybe the GamesAnimal plan all along was 80’s resolution, quality, as he is after all the GamesAnimal, a rocker, a tattooist, a gamer!

Red Dead Redemption 2 review - a peerless open world, and a story in the shadow of its predecessor

Bionic_Pixel

3 years ago

Last-night i popped onto YouTube and clicked on various Red Dead Redemption 2 Live videos, kicked back, and watched others play the game. It made for quite good viewing. As nice as RDR2 looks, sounds, it appears to offer the slightly same old, same odd. I've already spent way too much time on horse back during MGS V: TPP. I've already taken part in an epic battle on a moving train during Uncharted. RDR2 is one of those games i have no urge to dash out and buy. Maybe, in a year or two, i'll pick it up if only to have a bash.

For the moment, there are only 2 games on my want's radar, and that's Spider Man and Death Stranding

Why has blackness been singled out?
Whenever i purchase a game, not once do i ponder it possible levels of race. Maybe the future of film and game might see their cover art sport a badge, an easy to understand pie chart, pointing out levels of race contained within.

Forza Horizon 4's Xbox One X 60fps mode is the real deal

Bionic_Pixel

@Old__Snake My PC is fine for the web and not really suited for gaming. The Playstation has the lion share of games i want to play. To own other consoles would mean greater expense, not to mention more wires clogging up the lounge. I like the Playstation 4 controller more than any other controller.

best F1 game to date

Given a future date, best can only get better.
Codemasters have yet again shown us there is massive room for improvement of the visuals. Character models could and should look realistic. The tracks fail to compare to other recent driving games.

Played it, completed it, loved it. Now where's K&L3 ?

Sure the visual's weren't Playstation 3 super polished, but the high frames per second evident, and that added to the grim gritty realness of the pairs predicament. The portrayal of a seedy dirty stinking humid Shanghai was second to none. Over all, the experience felt brutal :D

Criterion shooter Black now part of the EA Access vault

4 years ago

Back in the day on my PS2, Black was as good as it got. Tough at first, running out of ammo often. I stuck it out to the end, and boy what an end level, down that tunnel and into a large room filled with enemy fighters. The feeling of warfare has rarely been equaled. Metal Gear Solid The Phantom Pain the next best thing. Sorry guys, i don't rate CoD games, other than Call of duty 4, which had its moments.

New UK studio from makers of Driveclub, MotorStorm

Bionic_Pixel

4 years ago

Driveclub was a big let down. I paid £5 for it and was disappointed. Imagine how those who paid the full whack felt?

Boot up Driveclub and the user is greeted with a bland front end that looks tacked on, like they didn’t have time to figure anything out. Start the game, and the 30fps is evident, to anyone used to playing higher frame rate racers such as Gran Turismo. It appears the developers main focus was to create the best looking rain drops ever, to which they succeeded. The look of the tracks mark a step forward in detail, but feel short. Driveclub feels slow, sluggish, with something missing. I gave up on within days of purchase.

World Health Organisation now lists "hazardous gaming" as health disorder

4 years ago

Games come and go, while some grab hold and never let go. I’m a self confessed Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain addict. The addiction to that one game has put other games on hold. I start new games, and keep on thinking about MGSV. The joke is, I’ve completed the game, story wise atleast, but there is 25% remaining. Completing the story isn’t enough. The thrill jumping out the helicopter, loaded with weapons, taking down the enemy has never grows dull. There is no other game like it. The times of eerie silence away from the enemy, chills. Even when there is no time to play, I must login once every 24hrs if only to receive the login bonus, which accumulates to buy much needed upgrades.

The 50 most exciting games of 2018

I’d forgotten about Spider-Man.
Not interest in Red Dead Redemption 2 or The Last of Us Part 2

I don’t see Detroit: Become Human mentioned?

My ‘to buy’ list in 2018:
Spider-Man
Detroit: Become Human
Resident Evil Gold Edition
Death Stranding - assuming it shows up ;)

Possibly maybe:
Gran Turismo Sport
Horizon Zero Dawn

2018 is looking like a slow year on the games front.
Konami and Capcom appear to be slipping off the radar :(

The new trailer for Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding is sci-fi craziness at its best

Great seeing new footage from Death Stranding. Unmistakably Hideo Kojima, reminiscent of Metal Gear Solid with it’s outfit design, raw feeling, heavy rain, saturated mud, life evaporating, creatures floating, a thing larger than Sahelanthropus. Move over Kurt Russell, come on down Norman Reedus, you are the new Solid Snake.

If i buy only one more game, it will be this. I'm still playing Metal Gear Solid The Phantom Pain, a game i consider to be the best game ever made. Never have i put so many hours into a single game.
