That does sound like a ****ed up button combo.

I was struggling with the first few encounters and then realised that having the sword assigned to triangle in a 90% melee game is surely unheard of .

Currently making my way through Red Dead 2; I’m at the same point I get to with most open world games where I just prefer to wander around and do the side missions like the legendary beasts/fish (although I haven’t found one of the fish yet !) than progress with the actual story

[user104658]

Honestly I have such a boner for this... gameplay, tone, aesthetic, soundtrack, how have I not been playing this series .

I’ve been addicted to Celeste lately, it’s so well made and challenging

Claire > Leon in the remake, easily.

Though I'd love it if they would release a DLC to play as Resi 4 Leon in Resi 2. Run around the police station suplexing zombies and roundhouse kicking Mr X in the face

I've always been a fan of Leon and Resident Evil 4 and his campaign in 6 so i did his first. The game was brilliant I do need to do Claire's soon. Then I think I'll do hers again first followed by Leon's second.

Leon and Jill would be my ideal combo team for a future game

Honestly I found Leon a little bland in this where Claire has more personality

Bioshock 2.

I quite like the game so far, it's a shame that it doesn't seem to get more love.

I do remember liking that game as a kid.

I was rubbish at it though.

Playing through DMC5 again with the "live action" cutscenes turned on... it's a ****ing scream

Why does this look like it was filmed in a school gym hall

I think it might have been. They also sometimes use action figures (which appear to ALL be Dante ) to represent people flying through the air, etc.

Oh and the bird demon thing is... a guy stood on a chair flapping his arms like a bird. It's amazing. Best film ever.

I started playing LA Noire for the first time the other day and it was the most boring thing I’ve ever done, didn’t grab me at all.

How many levels did you do?

The Game is quite slow paced so you have to dig in a bit to get to the most exciting levels imo.

[Mystic Mock]

I'm playing Bioshock: Infinite at the moment.

I quite like the Game tbh, it has a good atmosphere and it's quite good to have a main character that can talk and has some more character development.

The only complaint that I would have with the game is that it doesn't feel like a Bioshock game to me, but the game is very well made so I can let it slide.

I do miss the Big Daddy/Little Sister storyline though.

[user104658]

So I'm nearly finished DMC5 on "Dante Must Die" difficulty any I dunno what I'm going to play next . Help.

That said I'm not convinced I'll actually finish because I struggled with Vergil on Son Of Sparda and not entirely convinced I'll be able to beat him this time . I haven't even got there yet but I know it'll be a ****show . I got through the whole of Son of Sparda without using a Gold Orb so I had something like 16 when I started that battle, and 9 when I finished. Shame, shame, shame... I just can't seem to dodge him effectively and I have no idea why goddamnit.

How have you been doing on the game over the last few days?

I finished Dante Must Die but as I expected I ended up just spamming gold orbs (for devil form) on that final boss which makes it feel like a hollow victory . Maybe one day! Probably just need to be more tactical and less aggressive I think.

Congratulations! A win is a win afterall.

And tbh I don't think that I could beat any game on hard or nightmare modes so you've done well imo.

DMC5 is literally just mainly learning how not to get hit at all in terms of beating the higher difficulties. Dante = jump and dodge a lot, Nero = keep yourself and enemies in the air as much as possible, V = keep your distance and spam Area Effect abilities. I also had the benefit of the combat being similar to Nier Automata which was pretty much my life for 4 months a couple of years ago .

Well I beat Bioshock: Infinite a few days back and that level with the Songbird to try and have it attack the Ships was the most difficult level in the franchise imo, really really tough. A great game though and they had a very interesting storyline I thought, although I'm still more of a Bioshock 1 as I loved the Rapture scenery in the first game, and stuff like Fontaine, Ryan, the Little Sisters, and the Big Daddy were iconic enemies in the first game imo that the other two just couldn't quite recapture again, although they were still enjoyable and I'd actually say that I'm surprised that Bioshock 2 doesn't get more loving off the fandom as it added some Horror undertones to itself I thought which gave it it's own vibe.

I'm playing Plague INC: Evolved on a more casual basis at the moment, it's quite good actually for a cheap priced game, I'm trying to do the Dawn Of The Apes mode though which is rock solid imo.

And I somehow beat Vectorman 1 yesterday on the Sega Megadrive Classics on the PS4, I say somehow as it was my first day playing it and I was getting killed on every level.

The second form of Warhead has to be one of the worst boss encounters of all time imo as it's hard to evade his attacks.

A great game overall with really quirky and fun levels, with the exception of Rock & Roller as that level just didn't really make much sense to me, and even when you realise what you've got to do, it's almost impossible to achieve it as the controls are clunky as hell on the level, and the boss doesn't really leave you alone at any point to be able to retain your health.
