Man, you should sign up for PSNow if you have a PS4 and haven't already. They have Fallout 3, NV, and 4 on there plus tons of other games.

Still milking this PS3.
May upgrade to PS5 when that drops.

I feel that completely. I did that with the Gamecube and Wii until I got my Switch.

Yep I’m the same ...I rotate between my ps3 and ps4, mainly because ps4 uses a lot of power and gets expensive to play for long periods

Psnow definitely got better since they lowered to $11 ...I remember signing up for the first version and it was like $20/mo and barely no ps4 games ...shits amazing I’ve been playing the new wolfenstien and tomb raider game

So, I'm at a point in pretty much all of my games that I'm stuck in a deathloop.

Haven’t been into video games much since I was a lot younger but with the combination of the quarantine and a few rainy days I found myself hooking up my old Xbox and playing the original Halo combat evolved. I’m talking the OG first Halo. Forgot how fun it was.

Never played any of the newer ones after Bungie gave it up. Got carried away with the nostalgia train and played through the whole campaign on legendary. Made me miss playing multiplayer almost twenty years ago. Crazy. Anybody here still fuck with Halo?

I've watched online games of halo 2 online.
Takes me back to my first experiences online gaming, talking shit, and caring about this thing:



The first few halos on tough difficulty is intense. Real fun.

I still have the OG Xbox and WII sitting under my coffee table...I still have the games including Halo and Marvel vs capcom 2.  I think my PS2 and sega genesis/ sega CD in the storage closet still works...I still have my old Dreamcast games (marvel vs capcom 1)

I started Metal Gear Solid 5 today and god damn was the epilogue/intro a chore...

I played MGS3 and enjoyed it, but don't feel like the cutscenes were over the top like it felt with 5.

Maybe I'm just more impatient now, but the amount of cutscenes in 5 made me turn the game off after a hour or so.

People definitely have their complaints on phantom pain.
That intro was dope though. Battling out of the building post coma as Snake is a vivid gaming memory I have.

Still playing Zelda BotW, in the midst of trying to cool my PC with bigger fans and cooler to keep myself occupied.

It was cool, but an hour of crawling/cutscenes is not how I want to start a game haha. I'd even be okay with a longer intro if that meant more gameplay in between cut scenes, but a cutscene followed with 15 seconds of gameplay (aka crawling), then another cutscene just got tiresome.

[Yu Dum]

I may have already said this, but I started RE2 on hardcore mode and holygoddamn is it kicking my ass. I love it, but fuck I'm really struggling.lol

I'm also getting deeper into Doom: Eternal and loving it more and more. Definitely a huge jump in combat and the amount of enemies from the 2016 version. Shit has me on edge with every new environment I enter.

[Slugboi22]

I’ve been playing Control and I absolutely love it. I’m a huge fan of third person shooters as well as Metroidvania style games so it’s perfect for me. Highly recommend if you can get it on sale. Been also playing Dark Souls 2 which is an absolute chore and a half.

I've been debating on playing Control for a while now. I started it one night when I was way too drunk to understand what the fuck was happening, but I want to give it a go when I'm sober.

[Hmmmm Nice Bike]

Mario Kart Wii, it's pretty fun but I can't get the multiplayer mod to connect me to a server despite following the steps correctly. It still has an active community apparently.

Bought Smash Ultimate last night. I’m working through unlocking all of the characters right now, but I’m gonna post my friend code soon.

I'm on my first play through of this:


Kinda wish I played this before the Link's Awakening reissue.

I'll post it tonight. I've been grinding through the adventure mode and loving every minute. Much better than the Subspace Emissary shit in Brawl.

A Link To The Past is incredible. One of the most difficult games in the series, tbh, but that's mainly because it doesn't really hold your hand and guide you to where you need to be.

[Bata]

I preferred Links Awakening to Link to the Past. Something about Link to the Past never sat well with me I think its the character models. The whole darkworld thing felt like a bit of a cop out or something, maybe it was just too difficult like you say.

[Yu Dum]

Honestly, I preferred Link’s Awakening as well, but ALTTP is still golden imo. Just a higher difficulty curve.

Here’s my friend code if anyone wants to get that work in Smash Ultimate.

Getting deeper into Doom Eternal again. Started fighting the Kahn Maykr last night, but I was so tired that I just gave up after she killed me.
Interested in how the battle with the Icon Of Sin will be. If I don't get to pilot one of those big mechs then I'm gonna be pissed.

Start RE3, and I'm stuck in a deathloop fighting Nemesis in NEST2.

Any of you Pals have any recommendations for survival horror games on PS4? I don't mind spending any money.

It's an older game, but I really enjoyed the first Outlast game. Great tension, especially early on.

I’ve been considering that. There’s minimal combat, right?

rad.
Some areas of the game seem frivolous.
Definitely a game worth revisiting if you're a completionist type of gamer.
enjoy

i'm playing Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, which is an absolute broken hunk of shit game
but one of the characters voice sounded eerily familiar, I did a google:

Yeah, I don't even remember actual combat (it's been a couple years). More like Amnesia or Alien: Isolation (both also recommended)

Final Fantasy 6

should probably point out I play it on emulator and abuse the Vanish/Doom glitch whenever I feel like, some of those dragons are too damn hard to bother grinding to beat.

I feel like the Vanish/doom thing is more of a trick than a glitch kinda like using pheonix downs to kill undead things it seems like it shouldn't work but it's in the game so abuse the tricks you find useful.

Playing through Shadow of the Colossus again.

I played it on PS2 but never finished it because it was too much game for PS2 and it just ran poorly.

I played all the way through on the PS3 Ico/SotC Remaster pack.

I've just defeated the 8th Colossus on the PS4 version.

I think the PS3 one might be my favorite version. The PS4 one is completely beautiful but there is some of the weird dreaminess lost in the super-realistic graphics on this newest remake. Also on the PS3 you can custom configure the controls whereas on PS4 there's only a few options and none of them are perfect for me.

Also, I've been getting super nerdy and downloaded Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2 and have been learning the game. I've just been going through the tutorials so I haven't even played a match yet, but my girlfriend was laughing at me yesterday because I was basically jumping off the couch yesterday mimicking the character's jumping. It's super intense and it's perfect for now because I have hours of sitting on my ass inside. I'm already considering buying an arcade stick just for this game which I haven't done since I bought one for PS2 for Virtua Fighter 5.
