  1. I hope not. The line between mobile gaming and AAA console/PC gaming does not need to get more blurry than it already is. There are games like the older Final Fantasy Games and Life is Strang on mobile and I don't mind that because they are sold up front, but the kinds of FTP business practices that are not bafflingly accepted as normal on mobile needs is already trying to break through into AAA gaming and don't need that.
  2. Ugh, I hate mate Miniclip's mobile games. I've tried a few of them, and they're all the same pay-to-win bullshit model re-skinned as a different sport. I genuinely did enjoy Miniclip's browser games back in the day, but now they are the billboard of everything that's wrong with mobile gaming.
  3. So sorry to hear that. I hope things pick up
  4. Work has been a drag since I came back back. Been shovelling moss and picking up rocks for the last three weeks because the new CEO of the company is visiting tomorrow. Hopefully after this visit us over that'll be the end of this nonsense.
  5. The problem is the question is really vague. There's a million possibilities out there that would match what you're looking for, but it seems like you want a more specific answer. Is there anyway you could narrow it down? Does it have to installed on you PC or can it be games played on a browser like the miniclip games @skyfirementioned? What kind of genres are you thinking off? Dose it have to be free to play? Can we get a little more on what it is you're looking for?
  6. If it were me playing, I wouldn't have even assumed it was a glitch. I'd just assume the ass hole who started the fight slept with the other guys wife or something.
  7. I know that it's an inevitably given that technology is always moving forward, but I just don't see the point in a 4K Switch, the screen is just too small to make a worthwhile difference. I'd it were up to me, an upgraded switch would have a more modest performance upgrade Perhaps 1080p in handheld with 60fps and upscaled 4K docked), a better battery and a fix to some the issues with the joy-cons.
  8. Yes, there are plenty of console games whare you use strategy in combat, in fact they would be a piss poor games if they didn't, but when it comes to actual strategy games is a different matter. I define a strategy game as Total War, Command and Conquer, Xcom, that sort of thing. The kind of game whare you use little to no actual still at all, it's all about management of the scenario rather than actually engagement.
  9. I just want to see somebody other than the soulless, money hungry hyaena's at EA and 2K making these games, then at 90% of Thier problems could disappear. Strategy games are never popular on console because the UI and control inputs for consoles just doesn't suit these types of games very well, but I'd say the genre is still very much alive and well on PC. I'd have to say the same about story centric RPG's as well, there's loads of them and the standard has been high this gen. I think you're underestimating gamers, not everyone is exclusively playing COD of Fortnight Royal.
  10. I have posted a reply to this already, but I've thought some more and have a bit to add. If I didn't have a family, it would be a very easy no. What's the point on having all that green and being unable to spend both and and your time doing what you love and embracing your passion? Even with money, that's not a life worth living. Given that I do have a family, that makes the choice a little harder. Making a sacrifice for you kid's wellbeing and future is something expected of any parent. Having said that, if I wanted my son to be raised by a robot with no soul or passion for anything, I would have given him up to plugged into the matrix or something, that's slightly better than ME being that robot. So, my answer would still be no.
  11. I'm not sure about this, it just smells alot like this Destiny style "live service" crap with the RPG elements and the co-op. This isn't what people wanted out of a new Batman game. It's as if DC felt the need to put something out there to rival Marvel's Avengers, but why? The world already hates that game, we don't need another one. This will probably be better than Marvel's Avengers, but that's not saying much.
  12. I said so in another thread already, but welcome to VGR. Happy to have you here. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
  13. First things first, welcome to VGR. I haven't enjoyed since GTA Vice City. GTA San Andreas' characters and plot were stereotypical and cliché even by GTA standards, GTA IV somehow managed to be both dull and annoying and GTV has been ruined by Rockstar and Take-Two's insatiable greed.
  14. Chronological age: 35 Mental age :12 Physical Age :74
  15. I thought it was obvious by now my native language is gibberish.
  16. We have seen members, new and old, really up their contribution this month. It's not easy to pic, but I've though about it and made a choice. She's always here, she's always consistent and is one of THE reasons to be on VGR. My nomination is @The Blackangel.
  17. The Playroom? That's an interesting choice. It was cool, yes, but it was more of a tech demo than an actual game.
  18. I have a son who is eight. He was born just two days away from Christmas. He's the most important thing in my life and I love him to death. You are all right, parenthood is not easy and not something to take on unless you're ready and really mean it, but it's so satisfying and fulfilling as well and I wouldn't change it for the world.
  19. Anyone who would purposefully get close enough to a living room sized 4K TV to try and see the pixels shouldn't have been let out the hospital.
  20. Anyway, time for my little contribution. The kind of "difficulty" that Souls games offer isn't legit at all. It's just a tedious, cryptic, waste of time built around trail and error. It's just try then die until you figure out what kind nonsensical solution that the fussy game wants you to do. This means the games aren't even challenging, all you need to beat them is time. No skill, no strategy and success proves nothing, yet the fanbase still feels they have the right express that legendary arrogance they hold so dear.
  21. I think it was mostly people upset that the turn based combat had gone and been replaced by something very, lt's say, "western". I wasn't one of them, actually liked the combat and it had the best narrative of any Final Fantasy game I had ever played had ever played, but the levelling system was a shitshow. The Zodiac Version did indeed fix that, though.
  22. I dunno. Ever since Microsoft bought the IP Minecraft has shifted from the unexpectedly smart kid in class that beat everyone on the test to the kid drawing penises on the chalkboard. Just doing do anything for attention and would sell their soul for it. It's not like these games are bad, just desperate and shameless.
  23. The thing that I find fascinating about this is whilst 8K is completely unnecessary for PS5 and XBSX, to have a TV that's gonna get the best out of the next gen consoles, I've found that it's mostly these 8K ready TV's is what one needs. HDMI 2.1 ports, 120Hz refresh rate and the kind of HDR that worked best with these consoles, to get these features on a TV now it'll cost a bloody fortune and it's most common on the pointless 8K resolution compatible sets. This is the true cost of next gen.
  24. Horizon: Zero Dawn is the best game this generation for me. Loved the story, loved the protagonist, it's astonishingly good-looking with some fast-paced, easy to learn gameplay that still offers challenging experience. I must have played through it at least four or five times and I don't think I'm done.
  25. Thank you very much for the kind mention. I'm glad you're gonna get a chance to experience this game. Let me know what you think, but I'm sure you'll enjoy it. As for Cuphead. As phenomenal looking a game it is with that old cartoon art style, don't be fooled. It's a good idea to find someone to play it with you because if it's even half as hard as everyone says it is you will want to drag somebody down to that hell so you won't be alone. Don't get me wrong, it's a good game, it's hard as baked shit, but a good game.
