Yeah I had a hard time picking a character in Borderlands 2. Finally settled on Maya, based on gameplay mechancis rather than anything story/character-wise. Managed to still have a fun time. The one that burned me out was the Pre-Sequel. I only got about 3-4 hours into it before I thought y'know...

Both will be great, which will be better remains to be seen when they come out. Which one's release I'm more anticipating, well that would be Metro. If anything, it's because I think I know what Doom will be like (more of the same, despite how brain-smashingly AWESOME it's going to be), but...

I tend to walk on the same side that people are driving on too, and also standing on that side of escalators in case people are in a rush and wanna blaze past. I wish more people followed this rules, especially in the overpopulated city where I live, and people just go wherever the hell they...

The appeal to me was in the worlds they built, characters, and how they were weaved so well together with a mix of fairy tale, mystery, suspense, drama and even horror to an extent. Like EvilRoy and Richard Kain said, it was down to the art and writing primarily to stand out and bring a story to...

Honestly I didn't see it myself either. Even as a horny teen at the time I failed to see the appeal of Lara Croft's exaggerated....assets. I gave the game a go, mostly because of what friends and magazines said, and the prospect of shooting things up with dual chunky USP pistols. Much to my...

In terms of driving physics, it depends what you enjoy. I like Forza Horizon for sliding around a city, driving on highways at perilous speed, and the sense of speed is pretty good there. It's satisfying and challenging in its own way. For a more realistic time though, Dirt Rally portrays the...

In principle, I agree with you wholeheartedly. Microtransactions are an absolute disrespect to paying consumers, who willingly pony up full price for a game, expectant of a fair trade, and not have to pay extra shit here and there to get the gaming experience they thought of. Unfortunately...

I own an Xbox one. Mainly for the driving games, because Gran Turismo crossed the line with me in terms of microtransactions, and I shifted franchises. Anyway Forza is awesome (for the most part). For everything else, I main PC, but I did just get a PS4 for the exclusives when it had that great...

Bit of old news here and definitely doesn't stand up to modern standards, but largely because of my age, these were pretty scary: Half-Life 1, my first encounter with the Icthyosaur (massive piranha thing) was definitely unnerving. And when I was trying to figure out where to go next, all I...

On a personal, selfish level, I'd go with Time. You can basically fix your life and tailor it to exactly how you want, optimize everything. Want to get better at something? Want to make some easy money with bets and outcomes? Retry something till you get it right? Relive perfect moments? Find...

Serious case of nostalgia glasses here. Deus Ex was a great game in its own right. But I tried to replay it even just a couple years later and it felt dated and janky as fuck. I gave up, and replayed it again in 2005, just to appreciate the story and depth the game had. It was a pioneer, yes...

It's an interesting concept, between horror and terror. But more to the point (of OP): I think 'forgiving' can be seen in a couple ways. There's even more nuance to horror and terror than the video describes. How scary is something that you can't fight, but can only outrun? Or can't even...

Adam was a beast. If they hack up this game too much for sake of DLC I'll be pissed. But they can't ship the game with just Axel and Blaze, that would be plain stupid, any beat em up worth it's salt, even in the 90s came with at least 3 characters (Double Dragon and Crude Busters aside, j/k)...

Yep, a +1 for Dalisclock having covered it. Not much to add there! I can offer a testimonial as I "was there" when it was released. The things that did blow me away were the puzzles, which were annoying at first but once I realized that this was a thinking game as much as it was shooting, I...

I wonder if the player was choosing to have the crosshairs/HUD hidden for this, or if it's just a replay. Coz it would be freaking hard to hit the weak spots if so (the first shot at least). I have seen other footage with crosshairs, so I'm guessing it's just for showcase purposes. RE games sure...
