The last game you completed, and rating (Console Edition)

Is there ? I must have missed that ...

Noting official yet, just a lot of talk about it, I did read something, that some big announcement about RDR could come this week, which was teased by the voice actor of John Marston, but not sure if he is teasing something about RDR or RDR2, time will tell.

Could be related to a Switch 2 release perhaps. I have been sitting on a ps4 version my gf got me ages ago thinking there will be a better version for ps5 but no luck yet.

There has been a lot of chatter about a PS5 and proper Xbox Series patch update so one can only hope.

Lost Odyssey Xbox 360 on Series X - 8/10

It was literally a final fantasy without the name. Played like the old final fantasies, liked the story and the mechanics.

I bought it back when it released but was finishing uni and didnt have time to properly play it and forgot about it.

I played day 1 Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9, X X2 and 13 and this really felt like another FF game and got immersed.

What annoyed me though was the grinding which took an extra 30ish hours and the dlc which i paid less that 1 pound but was essentially one room but 25 floors and too repetitive, but you get some good items.
Have had this on the backlog for so long! Will fire it up on the Series X soon... I hope!
 
Forza Horizon 5 - 9/10

Picked this up again on PS5 ( I prefer playing it in my living room on a large OLED screen vs sitting at a desk using my PC ) and finally managed to get the platinum trophy - my "end point" for what is essentially a "forever" game.

Drops a point for the "chicken dinner" eliminator trophy .... almost gave me a mental breakdown trying to overcome the seasoned veterans / PC hackers that dominate this online mode.

Roll on FH6, rumoured to be set in Japan.

Getting the platinum on FH5 is mad impressive, I've been casually playing it whenever I fancy playing something that requires me to switch my brain off but just looking at the 400 odd trophies can be overwhelming!

Its quite good and on Series X (and i think Xbox One) it runs better than on the x360. Load times especially are way better.

But it is original resolution i think and locked 30. This is a game that would benefit from a remaster but oh well, the industry wants us to play last of us to the ground i guess.

Also you don't need to worry about swapping disks (when it prompts you to change disk with one button press, it instantly loads the next content) after you install the game.

That's handy to know about the discs! Yeah a remaster would be great, but it's a bit of a cult game, so not sure it will either. More popular now than when it launched.
 
I’ve tried four times now to get into the first Death Stranding, and it just doesn’t click for me. Find it frustrating and that I’m missing out, what with all the DS2 plaudits :(

Do you disable the HUD etc for this? I'd be worrying about burn in with the sheer amount of stuff on display in Forza on an OLED? I tend to prefer to play it HUD'less or on a monitor for this reason/fear :cry:
 
I've never experienced any "burn in" on an OLED display. Minimal risk on a modern display, imo.
Nice, all I've ever seen on monitor reviews was the opposite, LTT is always showing burn in and then how to combat it with built in tools on the monitor etc, this was awhile I saw this mind - in the last 3-4 years I want to say? He had the taskbar etc burnt in and bits of Google Docs or Word's interface showing :(

What about if you get carried away and end up for playing 4+ hours straight?
