    Little known/obscure PS2(and one) game

    It's crazy how some games become hot collector's items almost overnight. I bought a copy of Haunting Ground in 2019 for about $20. Less than a year later people are selling it for an average of like $200. Also I played Rule of Rose not long ago and I don't get the criticisms it received (not...

    As someone who hated SW4, 4:Empires was great, and easily one of my favourite Empires spinoffs. The Sanada spinoff was made to coincide with a Taiga drama that was running at the same time about the Sanada, and because the Japanese fanbase loves Yukimura. As for XL, DW9 didn't (or at least...

    Post some godawful video game character designs

    He's using gravity magic to 'lighten' himself so he didn't have to abandon his beloved steed once he became too big.

    Finished the two main stories of Samurai Warriors 5 and I was pleasantly surprised. SW5 marks the first time Koei have rebooted the SW series (Dynasty Warriors has been rebooted like...4 times by now), and with it are some mixed feelings. SW5 focuses much more on the story of Nobunaga Oda and...

    Came across this and thought it was neat.

    Yeah, since the first patch we've only had some random freezes here and there but nothing too bad. Though it would be nice if they'd fix the pathing and sighting for gun units because that's still fucked. The real purpose of that video feels more like they're saying "yes, we're still working on...

    I guess CA is confident to 'properly' release Immortal Empires now. Let's hope it's a smooth one. And the patch update to go with it. https://www.totalwar.com/blog/tww3-update-240/

    Tiny insignificant details in games that really impressed you

    During the Murder on Eridanos DLC for The Outer Worlds, there's a quest where you need to question a dim-witted suspect in a murder case. During the conversation you can choose to initiate a 'good cop/bad cop' routine with one of your companions. During this segment, if you have cigarettes in...

    Just finished The Outer Worlds and I loved it. This game felt like a worthy spiritual successor to New Vegas, with similar mechanics, writing and world building, and manages to be better than NV in many ways. Better graphics and gameplay are obvious improvements, but I really like how the...

    In The Outer Worlds you can label items in your inventory as 'junk'. When you visit a vendor all items marked 'junk' can be sold with just one button press.

    There's nothing wrong with permadeath, especially in an RPG where choice and consequence are an important factor.

    Continuing with my random 7th gen games with one I've wanted to play for a while: Alpha Protocol! I just finished the Taipei mission and I'm absolutely loving this game so far. It manages to take something I usually hate, i.e. dialogue wheels, and actually make them work and feel relevant to...

    Continuing with my 'random PS3 games I was always interested in but never played' with Driver: San Francisco. As an action racing game so far it's solid, with good controls, varied missions, and a decent variety of cars. And then there's the 'shift' mechanic, which lets you spiritually jump...
