    First person shooters with engaging/emotional stories

    Technically it's a 3rd person shooter. That aside I agree it's on point. Other than that, Bioshock Infinite with the DLC takes the cake.

    Is The Witcher 3 overrated?

    No it's not. For fans of the Witcher series or dark fantasy RPGs in general is pretty much unmatched in what is trying to accomplish. It set the bar where there's no game in sight that even gets close.

    New God of War "trailer" tonight

    Well, let me not dissapoint you, then. Because when I think "Kratos" a slow plodding guy with a shield and axe on a over-the-shoulder camera is not exactly the first thing that jumps to my mind. Chained blades or bust.

    Is Silent Hill 2 best Silent Hill ever?

    Yes, SH2 is the best by far. Not even a contest. Silent Hill games have this nasty habit of falling apart at the joints towards the end when they try to wrap up everything with the cult/otherworld lore. It just detracts from everything up to that point. SH3 in particular suffers the most from...

    Nintendo Switch becomes the fastest selling videogame console in US History

    Yup. So does my laptop. To great effect, I might add. Not that any of this matters. All this talk about taking your HD AAA gaming to the train or the bus, and I doubt you could fill said bus with people who actually care. I live on the second largest city in my country. I ride the train...

    Nintendo Switch becomes the fastest selling videogame console in US History

    Oh, yeah, I forgot that the Dark Souls experience relies heavily on being on a tablet screen in the train. I was more of the confy chair and HD screen crowd. Silly me. No, for that we had to wait for *gasp* 2012. My bad. It was worth the wait, though. Played Dark Souls and DS2 exclusively on...

    Nintendo Switch becomes the fastest selling videogame console in US History

    Oh Dark Souls! Nice. Good to see the Switch is catching up to 2011. I'd rather see the Wii U catch up to 2017, to be honest. Bought one of the bloody things in order to play Bayonetta 2, figure the series was worth supporting. Now they gate the next one behind a console that works on fucking...

    How are you finding Nioh's PC port?

    I want to get it, but the port is not getting the greatest reception, but those most vocal are the ones who can't crank it to hell and back. Guys with Titans and 1080s trying to do 4k. With my i5 (forgot exact model), Saphire HD5570 and 16Gb of ram I was able to run Dark Souls 3, Witcher 3 and...

    Platinum Games Says it is "Constantly Talking" About Bayonetta 3

    As much as I loved both Bayonetta games, 2 made it clear they have no clue about where to take the game next. It was basically the first game on steroids. As most people I didn't mind, but 3 in a row might be pushing it.

    I want to go on a lonely adventure into an unknown, interesting world. Any PC recommendations?

    It's a bit of a crapshot, but take a look at Divinity: Dragon Knight Saga. Cheap as hell nowadays, starts out pretty generic but 5 minutes in you get the ability to turn into a Dragon. From them on it becomes quite unlike any action game from that time. It's also prone to being hilarious at the...

    Blizzard is Raising Prices for WoW Account Services in the UK and EU

    Thank you, I don't tend to masturbate over internet debates. That's more along the lines of fanboys. Like the people who'd defend this kind of monetization. How deep economics go is completely irrelevant. This is not a service that's tied to any real world comodity. Not gas prices, not the...

    Blizzard is Raising Prices for WoW Account Services in the UK and EU

    No, not really. http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=EUR&to=USD&view=5Y http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=GBP&to=USD&view=5Y This before we consider that the services in question are completely worthless. It's a simple database update. They could have been made available...

    Blizzard is Raising Prices for WoW Account Services in the UK and EU

    Let me get this straight. The pound plummets, therefore all Euro-using countries get their price raised? Slowclap.

    Well fuck that noise, not buying this game.

    What are you hoping to find in The Ringed City: the final Dark Souls DLC?

    That is the sole reason. I want to have another go at the Princes or Nameless without having to go through the entire game just for that purpose.
