Citizen Sleeper

It’s been a couple years since my first playthrough but enjoying it just as much this time. It’s definitely a solid top 10 game for me so I really need to buy the sequel after I’m done.

Call to Arms - Gates of Hell: Ostfront

I’ve been playing through the Finnish campaign and also some dynamic conquest on hard difficulty and getting absolutely destroyed by the ai :(

It’s hard not to in 4 player GoldenEye :D

It’s ok to use all the different stores.

Personally I use Steam for anything that has online functions and/or early access and GOG for everything else. Also I will buy direct from the developer (eg something like Software Inc) if I can but that option is getting harder to do.

I have a Flip v2 and think it’s great. Very nice to use and carry around but the thumbsticks are average quality. It’s probably my favourite to take out with me.

So far I’ve tried a couple different firmware, MinUI and Knulli, and everything up to PS1 emulation is good but stuff like N64/DC/PSP can be problematic.

Yeah I do all that myself with ETS2 but wanted to give another example.

Yeah I guess I am. Just give it to us in a bigger form…

It didn’t really take off to begin with but dual screen support like Supreme Commander had with the real-time map overview on the 2nd monitor. It could be a skirmish map or live track map for a racing game, live scoreboard, player status or inventory system.

I have the slim model and it was surprisingly easy with a good tutorial video and a set or torx screwdrivers.

As for controllers I also did that too with a good clean and new thumbsticks but sorry can’t help with any 3rd party recommendations.

I decided to dust off the Xbox 360 and played a couple games that aren’t available on the new consoles. I also gave it a refresh with new thermal paste, bearing oil for the fan and a good clean. It’s running great now.

Burnout Crash, it’s a top down version of crash mode from the main games.

Swarm, you collect 50 swarmites and make your way through the levels using student abilities.

That is a reason why offline installers are so important. At the very least we should be able to disable auto updates and still launch the (outdated) game.

Internet Connection - On/Off

Read the article…

They really did do a great job on gameplay. About half way through I realised that increasing the difficulty level, not using vehicles and barely using weapons was the perfect way to play DS. Items what were rarely used actually become useful (eg, sandalweed and repair sprays), building/upgrading structures becomes meaningful and appreciating other players more because of the connection I felt. I would walk across the entire snowy mountain pulling 2 carriers of packages and it would take me like 90 minutes for one journy but it went by so quickly. Also you find points of interest like the giant cryptobiote corals and the Japanses torii style gateway.

I’ve avoided DS2 like the plague but actaully bought it today for a christmas present to myself :)

With the significant rule changes I can see why they would do it this way.

I’m not a fan of the genre either but this is one of the few exceptions. I started a play through (fairly) recently and it holds up very well graphically but does fail in other areas as I would say it is racist in it’s depiction of different cultures. So along with that I also think it one of the games where source code is patchy at best so I doubt a remake/post will ever happen.

GTA IV

The only reason I bought it was to play the FusionFix mod that was released last month as it looks amazing and fixes and improves so much. I haven’t played it since the Xbox 360 release so really looking forward to it!
