Halo Infinite campaign and Forza 5.

Going to start psychonauts 2 when I’ve finished Halo. Good games on the xbox for pc subscription at the moment.

I've brought the Master Chief Collection so will be getting my teeth into that!

Playing Hell Let Loose pretty much exclusively these days, the odd bit of Bf2042 here and there with my brother as he enjoys it but meh its not great.

Once my Fanatec DD PRO arrives most of my gaming time will be on racing sims Automobilista 2, ACC and Dirt Rally2.

Recently got back into PC gaming after aquiring an eGPU... Currently playing Assetto Corsa and Wolfenstein 2. Game Pass is a treat too, looking forward to playing the Halo games.

Giving bioshock infinite another go, only played it for 4 hours when it came out and never went back to it

PlayStation 4 Pro is boxed up. And as a way of some kind of celebration/commiseration (not sure how I feel about it yet), I ended up buying Days Gone and Horizon Zero Dawn on Steam. So going to start HZD on 1st Jan 2022.

Just debating now whether to buy the DualSense controller for God of War PC, which supposedly supports it fully.

EDIT: Holy nutballs. Horizon feels so different at 60fps compared to 30 on PS4.

Was playing Vampyr from the EGS freebie. it's actually pretty good its got quite the atmosphere I do regret not playing it sooner.

Playing Icarus though it's buggy lacking a little content and should be played co-op at least for the most fun.

I have Far Cry 6 loaded but reluctant to start because I'll either stop playing Icarus or hate it after 10 mins

Subzero85 · 1 Jan 2022 at 21:40

Planet zoo, multiplayer i play the odd game of hell let loose in the evenings, might start halo infinite campaign tomorrow !

I've been considering trying Icarus, I fancy a survival/crafting game lately and have been looking at Icarus and a similar game called Subsistence

Worth watching a few streams to see if you like it (Rhadamant or Flipse on YT). There's plenty to do to a point. The premiss is each game instance is a new start with minimal tools. You have to build everything again which appeals to a certain player type. To alleviate this you can buy advanced equipment with credits earned between missions. Plus you retain skills which quickens the process anyway. There's also sandbox modes so you can play with the game mechanics. The real challenge is the suicide missions which will literally wipe your characters no hand holding here. As a solo player those are the ultimate missions!

I'll check out Subsistence.

Playing Half Life Alyx in VR at the moment

DisrupTor75 · 2 Jan 2022 at 11:13

Picked up Encased in the steam sale. Love a good rpg but only 20 mins in and already lost :cry:

Just finished the Desperados III DLC. Quite tough, but I loved it.

I might give Shadow tactics another go. The feudal Japan setting didn't gel with me as much as the Wild West did.

Try and stick with it, quality game in my opinion, and there was DLC released recently which i enjoyed, i just recently finished desperados 3, and looking forward to the 3 DLC missions. Looking forward to their next project !!

Last level on desperados 3 though i didnt enjoy, had a struggle getting to the church, and that final show down was awful i thought, had to youtube a guide to help me through it, other than that i have no complaints !

Yeah, it was a bit if a ****! Getting to the church wasn't too bad, just took me a loooooong time. The final showdown was just stupid, took many, many, many tries, almost to the point of rage-quitting! I didn't look online for hints, but don't blame you at all.
None of that ridiculousness in the DLC, just straightforward, albeit hard levels.

good to hear

Playing The Outer Wilds just now but I'm getting a bit tired of it.
I thought the opening couple hours were a bit annoying, as you need to work things out yourself. Found myself just aimlessly flying around and looking at stuff...
I'm fortunate to have not watched any lets plays or anything, so I've just been working things out trial and error, or completing things by looking at ships log.
It's an interesting way of telling a story, but I just think it's a bit longer than it needs to be.
I reckon I've got a couple of hours left, purely going by HLTB average times and the stuff on the ship's log.
Decent but I'm not feeling the magic most others did.
