The Computer/Console Gaming Thread

A new Monkey Island game is coming for those that love those classic point and click adventure games of old.

A new Monkey Island game? Wow, I'll be interested to see how the humour comes across nowadays. And also the whacky logic.

Be cheaper too.

Thanks for the advice.

Yeah, I think I'll hold off as well. WHile I rather enjoyed the story of the first one, and the gameplay was nice enough, I didn't really thing much of Aloy as a character and it sounds a bit like this game game runs along the lines of expansion pack rather than full sequel. I'll pick it up eventually.

Yeah think Spiderman and Miles Morales games. More of the same with very little difference. And they set up for a third installment.

Whos playing Elden Ring? Everyone seems to be playing it.

I beat the final boss last night. I'm going to gather as many materials, weapons, armour and summons as possible before starting a new game plus.

Not me, I started a new game of Mad Max the other day with the goal of playing all driving sections entirely in-car view.
I should finished the Witcher 3 someday as well.

You know, ever since about 2017, I've been playing various Sandbox games and playing them for a relatively long time. I think I cranked about 120 hours on Shadow of Mordor. Currently up to 160 on Shadow of War (trying to get all the armour/weapons pieces from various classes), recently his 80 hours on Mad Max.
I must admit that I've been getting value for money from those games.

Sonic Origins.
Expensive and stupidly convoluted "DLC" Bs.
Just enhanced version of the original games.

I am so excited for this, yet I have many versions of Sonic games. Plus I have Sonic Jam sitting under the TV ready to go whenever I want. (I am not even that fond of CD)

HOWEVER

My excitement for Sonic Origins is building.

$60 is way too much for these re-releases. I'll get them on a future Steam sale in 6 months to a year knowing how Sega discount their stuff.

Bought lego star wars and gt 7. On the box of gt7 it said internet required for most activity. Geup hope that is just crap I dont need to bother with.

GT7 is pretty much unplayable without internet. Only the music rally mode is playable without internet.
