    PS5 God of War: Ragnarok - NO Spoilers

    "The Game Awards" is just another awards show - I don't consider it to be official and certainly don't think their opinions are any better than anyone else's. Some will disagree, but as an example, The Last of Us Part II winning in 2020 is a bit of a blight on their track record. Having said...

    PS5 God of War: Ragnarok - NO Spoilers

    Great game. I've played it through twice now (first time was on Balance and second on GMGOW).

    Your Game of the Year for each year since 2010

    I must admit I haven't gone back to play CE since the first few years after release. Both those games you mentioned are absolute bangers! I think for me it was the sheer multiplayer fun of CE and getting around Blood Gulch for countless hours (an all-time map).

    Your Game of the Year for each year since 2010

    I forgot about Stardew Valley in 2016 and realised Fallout 4 was the year prior so made that adjustment in my list.

    Your Game of the Year for each year since 2010

    Good thread. Started my list in the late 80s which is when I was capable of picking up a joystick. The years are based on PAL or Aus releases. 1987: Super Mario Bros. (honorable mentions: Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!, The Legend of Zelda) * amazing year * 1988: Wonder Boy in Monster Land * weak...

    PS5 God of War: Ragnarok - NO Spoilers

    *non spoiler general thoughts * Been playing this the past couple of days. It feels very similar to the prior game, which isn't a bad thing at all, and with the world opening up some way into the game, I'm really enjoying it. There is a tonne of dialogue... not sure at this stage if it's too...

    Multiplat Death Stranding

    They brought in a feature where you can transfer your PS4 save data to the PS5 upgraded game. Oh and I loved Days Gone. It's one of a few have been keen to get back to on PS5. The res and frame rate improvements they introduced for so many games is brilliant. And Cyberpunk is def on the list...

    Multiplat Death Stranding

    I got to the end credits today. By and large, it's a really unique game with some unique mechanics and payoffs in terms of experience. I will admit that a ridiculous number of cutscenes were skipped. A negative was the bloat with regards to narrative. By this I don't mean the plot, which was...

    Definitely getting into it. Building roads :cool: and shooting mules :devil: is fun.

    Multiplat Death Stranding

    Been playing this the last few days. It's clearly a slow-burn kind of game. I'm about six hours in and not especially enjoying it yet however will stick at it. Opening up access to vehicles will make a difference. Hoping there are better weapons so BTs can be popped off more easily than hurling...

    What are you currently playing?

    Started playing Returnal a few days ago. The death cycle is pretty unforgiving although I'm a persistent type so it should not be a huge burden. I have the feeling it's really going to get brutal, though. I'm only up to the second environment.

    Show us your gaming setup

    Hey all. I upgraded my TV recently in the gaming room (and moved the old gaming room TV to the lounge, and gave the old lounge TV to my mum). The new rig is an 85" Sony Bravia. I thought about getting the full array lighting model in the 85" range however opted for the more budget-friendly...

    What are you currently playing?

    Just finished playing the RE2 and RE3 remakes as I played the original versions for the first time this year. RE2 remake is wicked. I only have a couple of issues with it but nothing that ruins the experience at all. RE3 remake is a bit different. Didn't enjoy it a whole lot - too scripted and...

    What are you currently playing?

    Yeah first time basically. I bought a bunch of them for my collection and went through a phase before Elden Ring came out. The GameCube has a great little library.

    What are you currently playing?

    I've played 22 games so far this year: Resident Evil 2 (PS1) - finished Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2) - finished Resident Evil 4 (GCN) - finished The Lord of the Rings, the Two Towers (GCN) Disney Pixar Finding Nemo (GCN) - finished The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (GCN) - finished...

    PS5 The Last of Us Part 1 - rebuilt from the ground up for PS5 and PC - 2 September

    I'm not firm against remakes but there needs to be a decent uplift in visual quality along with some expansion of/to the gameplay - I'm not seeing that so far in the trailers (and besides, the remastered version is more than adequate visually). Will hold out for a look at the final product upon...

    Retired #11: David Zaharakis - Survivin'

    Yeah, I’ve mixed memories of Zaka and the recency effect affects my sentiment to a degree, but there’s no point sinking the boots in as he departs. I appreciate the good stuff he gave us and wish him all the best. Long may his collection of sports caps grow.

    Preview Grand Final: Melbourne vs Western Bulldogs, Perth Stadium, Saturday 25/09/2021 @ 7:15 AEST

    Dogs undeserving, particularly after that final vs. Brisbane. Dees deserve to win by default. Also hope Hibberd gets a medal around his neck as he always battled hard for us.

    I’m definitely not watching it then, lol. Man, it’s going to be hard to avoid mini spoilers over the next 6 months or however long it takes to come out.

    AFL Autopsy ELIMINATION FINAL: Loss to the Dogs

    Bulldogs holding Essendon then too. And this is literally from your own picture. And before you say it, no, they’re both not holding each other. Our guy’s left hand fingers are outstretched.

    Retired #43: Anthony "Walla" McDonald-Tipungwuti - Will play his last game this weekend - 24/8

    Hope the perpetrator is charged with the relevant crime. I am not a lawyer but it has to fit under hate speech or something.

    Yeah, I don’t really know if he is or isn’t. You may be right. I’m just saying it reminded me of that for whatever reason.

    Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XV

    Yeah I blame the umps more than Cody. His under-the-arm free involving Draper was definitely cheating but it’s the umps who enable(d) it. At the same time I think we move on and hope the boys become even better so that these things have less of an impact on the end result. There is literally...
