Haha! They really were/are!

I can't get past the disembodied hands.

I played Lone Echo on a friends VR rig and was fucking blown away by how well the full arms/hands were implemented in the game and how unobtrusive it was to the view. I recoiled when I saw the floating hands of the Half life preview.

Game still looks great though

TIL that Simpsons Hit and Run is backwards compatible on 360 so I went straight to eBay.

Jesus Death Stranding is fucking weird, but really, really good. Only complaint is that the first like 3 hours of the game are like 95% cutscenes.

Chapter 3 is the longest part of the game, there's not too much story and it's mostly gameplay - but i'd try to avoid getting too distracted because the ending of that Chapter is classic Kojima shit.

I'm honestly kinda shocked that the overall conclusions haven't been spoiled yet, it seems like with most other games people just rush through and beat everything in a week. Everyone is taking their time with DS - which is actually pretty cool.

I'm only on Chapter 2. It's finally starting to open up. It's really cool to interact with all the other players, but it does make things surprisingly easy. I haven't placed a single ladder or climbing rope. They're just all there already.

I just got grabbed by BTs for the first time. I'm really not great at avoiding them. Anyways I spent like half a hour trying to kill the whale thing. Finally gave up and looked up how to kill it; turns out you can't do that with EX grenades.

Yo, yo, yo, please use the spoiler tags. I'm busy with school and haven't had a chance to play DS yet.

Elysium meets CoD Advanced Warfare meets Just Cause 4?
Cool idea, trailer looks super fake, though.

Red Dead 2 PC finally works for me.

Started and only got to play 45 mins.
I'm completely enthralled by the story and graphics so far.
The controls are by far the worst. Not only aiming but the random/changing button assignments while doing tasks.

Started on Other Worlds over the weekend. Graphically it's pretty slick, but I'm only a few hours in and can already tell it's going to be a short romp. Plus it's noticeably easier than New Vegas was, which is saying something. But it's still hella fun.

I've..... never actually played Chrono Trigger before.

Goddamn, it's so cutesy and I love it

[Eivind August]

It's so good!

[coldbrightsunlight]

Great game, so lovely and fun. I honestly didn't expect it to live up to the hype because I played it so long after it came out, but it's just so good!

[VREEEEVROOOOOW]

Started playing KCD & it's pretty close to an old RPG enthusiast's dream come true. Goodness me, it's good. Dunno when last I was this excited about a game of its ilk. I suppose Dragon Age: Origins?
