Have you been reading up on that Quantum TV guy who had a fit about Elden Ring?

I think that he ended up copyright striking a Youtuber who took the piss out of his review.

Anyway I've been playing FFVII recently and you forget just how good that Game is imo, a well paced & well told story, and characters with actual depth to them.

Anyway here is my rankings of the main cast of FFVII at the start of Disk 2.

1. Sephiroth
2. Cloud
3. Vincent
4. Tifa
5. Barret
6. Red
7. Yuffie
8. Aeris
9. Cait Sith
10. Cid

i finished first time with Life is Strange: True Colors, must say i find it a bit too short, but still wouldn't mind playing it over and over again as i haven't explored everything yet, and i can always go for other choices too, need to play Mine Haunt in that too maybe, thinking of purchasing wavelengths but have to ask parents for permission because i cannot go buying something myself without permission

am at last regular ep of LiS before the storm, and then only the bonus ep farewell




i uninstalled F1 2021 for now, found it becoming annoying how i couldn't maintain speed in safety car mode and keep getting dq'd when that happens, kinda want to know if you could turn off safety car

I've always been interested in that Game personally.

I wonder if it got overshadowed by series like COD at the time?

Yeah i reckon it probably did tbh. COD was really starting to gain popularity around that time. Anyone who likes FPS' should give this game a look though. Some people say it's a bit short, maybe it could have done with one more level, but i think it's great. And the look of it is amazing for a PS2.

I know this post is over a month old but wow I remember this game and it was actually pretty decent.

Area 51 (2005) on the PS2 was another great FPS and that’s where my liking for those type of games really started.

Really is a great FPS isn't it?! Im not actually one for graphics, would take good game play and controls over graphics any say, but it looks incredible for a PS2 game.

I'm currently playing Persona 4 over the last few days.

I've done the first three dungeons so far, the plot might surprisingly be more interesting than Persona 5 (which had a really fun plot itself) the cast is mostly good (I do feel like Yukiko has been dropped since completing her Dungeon though) but I really like Yousuke & Kanji as characters, and Chie is displaying the best personality of the girls so far imo, even if her voice is unique sometimes.

And the gameplay is not as in depth as Persona 5 imo, but it's opening up more and more which is good, and the battle system as usual for the SMT/Persona franchise has the right level of challenge without being like the Souls Games, or being in baby mode on the other spectrum of difficulty.

I've got to say that this Game is fantastic.

Controversially I might actually prefer Persona 4 to Persona 5, it's very close imo, but I really am enjoying the story and just the overall atmosphere of Persona 4.

Both are fantastic Games though, I don't know who the killer is (so please don't spoil it to me) but I'm guessing that the killer is Adachi as his function in the story whilst it can be fun in a goofy way, there isn't really any real reason why he has been added into the Game imo as other characters can easily fit his role, unless he is the killer.

Plus I find it odd that he is the only character that's not really ever put in danger in the Game, or ever really delved into his darker thoughts so far.

I am a little bit suspicious of Yousuke & Chie though as they've never been attacked by the killer either, and Chie was the first character to mention about The Midnight Channel in the Game.

And Yousuke was so adamant that
Spoiler:

we kill the guy that was trying to save the people that he was putting through the TV
it kinda felt like he wanted to cover his own tracks.

Brilliant Game though, it has the right balance between Comedy and darker material.

I found I couldn't really get into Persona 4... I gave it a good try but I think it lacking the visual styling of 5 made it seem a bit dull in comparison.

I've started on Horizon Forbidden West, I'm enjoying it but (so far anyway) I don't think the machine varieties are as interesting as Zero Dawn, and the sense of discovery isn't the same, but that's inevitable I guess since you're not "going in blind" as with the first game.

Yeah Persona 4 is definitely going for a different vibe to Persona 5.

It's one of them Games imo where it builds up more and more, compared to Persona 5 which I think anyone with an ounce of fun to them can enjoy imo.

I've watched my Brother play the first Horizon Game, I remember liking Sylens or whatever his name was.

I tried playing NanoTek Warrior today, and I've got to say that it hasn't aged well imo.

I personally just don't really like Games where you're bombarded with tons of enemies, it's why I've never really liked the Souls series either, despite the Berserk aesthetic.

I personally prefer difficulty in other ways to 50 enemies attacking you at once.

GTA 3, again. Im really getting back into speedrunning that game. Currently doing All Unique Stunt Jumps runs (so reset heavy). All Hidden Packages (my best online bud just beat my time so i want that back ). And All Rampage runs, still not got through one. A lot harder than it looks on paper, especially when the goal is to do them as optimal as possible, and to not die once.

Looking to do a fully optimised 100% run this summer, i've made a route, thinking it's gonna take around 9 hours depending on RNG. It'll be challenging for sure.

Good luck, that Game is one of the harder GTA's imo.

I'm currently playing White Day: A Labyrinth Named School, it's basically an Outlast/Alien Isolation type of Game where you have to run away from a School Janitor who has a Baseball Bat.

It's a good Game so far, it's one of the most stressful Horror Games that I've probably ever played.

But tbf a Horror Game imo is meant to be at least reasonably eerie.

And just to clarify for anyone that might be offended at the title, White Day is basically like Valentine's Day in some Asian countries, it isn't supporting white supremacy.

Halo Infinite.

I've been playing through the Halo games . They have incredibly convoluted story-lines that I can't follow, haha.

We'll see how this one goes.
