The last game you beat,did you like it and what are you playing next?

I haven't quite finish Robocop yet, and true to my lack of focus on any one game, have just bought Avatar Frontiers of Pandora...playing it but have not gotten out of the 'prison' yet. I'll post a few screenshots when I get outside and the beauty of Pandora...

it was Cold Waters with DotMod. Awesome game despite it quite old. But I'm looking forward to a continuation from its creators - Sea Power!

Okay, finally took the plunge and got myself a PS5 (NOT the Digital Edition) and pre-ordered Stellar Blade, after buying take-away dinner for myself when I was downstairs earlier. Made the mistake of walking into the game shop, in the mall downstairs, to ask about the Stellar Blade pre-order, ended up with a PS5 and the pre-order as well, will have a physical copy of Stellar Blade come Friday...

I'd recently gotten a number of games:
The Forever Winter
Black Myth Wukong
Hogwarts Legacy
Lollipop Chainsaw RePop
Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2
The First Descendant (hey, it's free!!! )
Tomb Raider I-III Remastered (had credits at EGS, so why not?)

I'm ashamed to say I'd not finished any of 'em, got my attention and time spread too thinly among these games. Though I've decided to focus of Space Marine 2 and it's so kickbutt wandering around in my Space Marine suit and mowing down those pesky Tyranids, and as a result of this game, I've been watching YT vids on the WH 40K lore and it's fascinating. Gonna log off now as I'm anxious to kick more Tyranid butts, this game is old skool in gameplay and I fricking love it!

Alrighty, I'd finished Space Marine 2, first time in a long while that I've actually liked and cared enough for a game to push through and finished it! IF you liked Gears of War gameplay, you'd love Space Marine 2. Heck, I have Space Marine in my Steam library, bought it a long time back but did not quite finish it, so now, between it and playing 'Operations' in Space Marine 2 (side but important missions that are part of, and runs concurrently with what is happening on main missions), I'd still have lotsa Space Marine content to go through.

I'll focus on Space Marine and Space Marine 2 from now on, will get back to my other games later as it's tough for an old dog like me to remember and get comfortable with the keyboard controls for any particular game. So, while I'm getting better at remembering and hitting the right keys and combo for Space Marine 2, I think I'll stick with it for the time being. I might play Lollipop Chainsaw Repop as well since I'm using my 8BitDo Ultimate 2.4 and NOT keyboard (which would mess with my familiarity with Space Marine 2's keyboard controls should I play other games). I guess age is telling as it's getting harder to get comfortable with the keyboard controls for different games at the same time. It's best to focus on one game at a time, for me anyway.

Hey guys, I'd been away in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on a long vacation at my brother's home. Needless to say, I'd neglected my gaming rigs for awhile, as I'm still feeling somewhat 'off' (not really in a gaming mood) I'm doing some light gaming till I get my mojo back. Just a quick post to let you guys know I'm alive and kickin'....

[Vindir]

So, anyone play anything since last time you checked in? What's actually worth playing from the last few years?

I'm pretty sure this thread is the forum now so might as well keep it alive

Hey guys, been a little down lately, my old bud, a guy I've known for almost 40 years now, had been hospitalized due to some intestinal issue after having most of his bowel removed due to cancer. Been visiting him on and off for the past couple of months, but he's on the mend now, just met him earlier today, gave him a lunch treat ...... yet he vex me so when we discuss politics, he's always playing Devil's Advocate! He really knows what buttons to push, that's for sure!

Anyway, latest game I'd gotten is Stellar Blade Complete Edition from Steam, and honestly, I ain't doing too well playing the game, being an old fart, learning the keyboard controls is kinda hard....the old saying is true, you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Stellar Blade is a good hack and slasher, though Eve (the protagonist) is so hot, and can be rather.....distracting (jiggle physics isn't helping either), I've got her in a skimpy red dress with high slits at her side, and have been stuck in a loop making her go up and slide down a vertical ladder......repeatedly!

I guess with practice, I can master the controls to some degree, but I'm handicapping myself with one-handed gameplay because.....

One game that I've played, and beaten a few times is Gears of War, and I'd recently found out that IF you'd purchased Gears of War Ultimate Edition for Windows 10 (which I'd done previously). you're entitled to snag Gears of War Reloaded for free (release date 26th August, 2025). It's a Remastered version, so for me, it's pretty much worth it since I get a free copy, already have the 'pre-order' in my Windows Game Library for my main and 2nd rig, as well as in my Legion gaming laptop (R7 5800H + 32GB RAM + RTX 3070 140W + Windows 11 Home), I might be in Canada come September to November to visit my bro and sis-in-law, so the laptop would be my gaming rig then.
