What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

yaya

that tank definitely reminded me of Gyo again .. by Junji Ito .. who was on board working with Kojima for Silent Hills .. 

either he's still collaborating with them or the designs are carrying over .. or the influence ?? 

what i'm getting at .. this game definitely seems to be carrying over the work that started with Silent Hills in some form. 

I had completely forgotten Junji Ito was involved with PT... yeah, the parallels are kind of obvious with those weird vehicles and his obsession with body horror (and that weird walker thing in the picture).

another zelda vid. the framerate looks so chunky :^( 

Jeez you're right, looks like Skyrim running on my 5 year old lappy ...

Dear God, if you're listening.. please let Zelda Breath of the Wild run at a smooth constant 30fps while running on a docked Nintendo Switch while being displayed to a TV screen .. thank you ... 

supposedly marvel vs capcom 4 gonna be announced this weekend at psxperience o_O

death stranding looks interesting of course. can't wait to see what he does after mgs

and jesus christ i really hope that's bad capture of zelda because that looks like absolute ass

it's absolutely 100% not bad capture. it's from official nintendo youtube @ 60fps. 

also, when wii u demo was doing the rounds at e3 and whatnot, everything was pretty framerates and journalists were commenting on it being pretty rough. also !! the nintendo switch console reveal video, with the snappy music and urban cool adults playing nba on their nintendo instead of playing basketball etcetcetc. showed bits of zelda, and even in that super manufactured promo video, the footage of zelda was running at a pretty dismal seemingly ~10fps. 

this games gonna have a low framerate it seems ... :^( 

it's also nintendo's first attempt at an open world game this scale. so it's not totally unfathomable. but it is gonna be disappointing to a lot of people i think :^( 

All of the Zelda demo footage shown so far is running on Wii U which is said to be struggling at its limits to run this game. The Switch version should be much smoother, plus hopefully no load times bc it uses flash cartridges.

:,^)

!!! :^)

always loved the citadel

sci fi as fuck concept as well with the humens travelling around looking for new home 

psxpo thing starts in 8min: http://live.playstation.com/

This is the most cringeworthy shit I've ever watched. Nintendo was way ahead of the game when they decided to skip press conferences and simply release videos where they announce new stuff.

Dang, last of us 2...caught this thing late, did they also show new God Of War gameplay? 

nah. they announced ahead of time it wouldn't make the show. also surprised at no ffvii remake news but i guess it's probably another 10 years off anyways.

but wipeout collection + mvc3 + mvc4(infinite) look fun

will probably play last of us at some point ;O

bit sad on wipeout.

it's 2048 + hd + fury. hd + fury already existed on ps3 and are well worth checking.

i thought 2048 on vita is a bit shitty though. there's something about the visual language and high visual clutter that makes that game hard to play, plus the steering felt 'wrong', plus the way the main game paces itself back and forth between races and special challenges was boring (just give me bog standard racing!!).

hoping some of my nitpicks are addressed and ironed out in ps4 version. will probably buy it anyway lol

yeah hype. hopefully it has VR support

the worst part about 2048 was the shit frame rate and absurd load times. i actually enjoyed the "campaign" elements of hd->2048. zone was always so beautiful. hopefully they never go back to including dr pepper ads during load screens -_-

none

just to further iterate. worth remembering that wipeout hd in itself was a collection of tracks between wipeout pure and pulse on the psp. wipeout pure was 2005.. so this collection dates back to 2005, through to the vita game which was released 2012. i've played all these games and i'm half guessing alot of the target demographic behind a new wipeout game is people who have already played these games before ?? i dunno. whatever. as i said, i'll definitely be buying it anyway out of interest (the vita game on big screen tv could really help with the visual clutter complaint). 

anyhow. while companies that own the wipeout franchise aren't putting out new wipeout content, it's also worth remembering that original wipeout devs kickstarted and and still doing own new thing, formula fusion, which is still coming out 2017 for ps4 and pc and xbox. 

mmm. ps4 with wipeout omega + formula fusion on it. pretty nice thing to think about :^)

i really wish the new wipeout games dropped the mixed content campaign in favour of a more traditional tournament mode campaigns. all i want out of wipeout games is a tournament of 4 tracks, and to try and get first place in the tournament, and progressively unlock more tracks and more tournaments and just slowly chisel away and get gold on everything. and maybe play some Zone on the side cos Zone is indeed fucking cool.

but i hate the way there's no set tournament mode, and its instead this mixed bag Campaign of needing to play a couple single races, a tournament, a zone, an eliminator mode ?? some other bullshit here and there, before being able to unlock more tracks and tournaments. just give me racing !!! gahhh

i guess some people enjoy the mixed bag. but i don't !! is annoying. cos i love wipeout otherwise. 

touche. was 3 your fave? expanding and filling that grid with gold was pretty fucking satisfying.

...and insanely difficult...

anyone half good at Civ 6 yet? wishing the massive amount of information available in cities was more user-friendly. it feels like work to look at the policy cards too, scanning 35 cards for that one you kinda remember that maybe could be useful is one of the few backwards steps. otherwise fun stuff.

i like 3. i think 2097 is just my favourite on account of having played it more but having some inexplicable preference to it (familiarity?), but i like 3. 

i also really like HD and fury. those original psp games were great but the way it all comes together and looks and feels and plays as a complete package in HD is just too good. i guess realistically, if i wanna play just normal racing in HD/Fury, i can just fire it up and make my own tournament and play that. but my save file is still unfinished with gold medals missing across the board and thats where my mixed bag campaign complaint comes into play. i just can't be bothered finishing it off despite really wanting to finish the game and clear off  the gold medals. 

oh well. play what u enjoy i guess :^)

Loved Wipeout Fusion on the PS2, loved how the vehicles were genuinely different.

I kinda want to get Redout, because that's meant to be very similar to Wipeout (although not quite as good). But I need my hovercar racing fix!

gonna give Let It Die a go tonight... sounds like it has some interesting Dark Souls esque mechanics... I haven't played any Grasshopper games before so I don't have any reference to the type of combat they have

I'm still totally confused about the f2p thing though, I haven't heard anything about how they monetise it. I'm just hoping there's no pay2win nonsense.
