Symphony


[link to this post]
 
Available now on the Humble Bundle store - its rather a good shoot-em-up in the vein of other music based games, only rather more interesting.

Draw-A-Stickman looks amusing too. It seems to be based on that website where you draw objects to progress through a short adventure.

There are some which will be looked at later.

Nice one wink Only problem with that is ����We don't want or require old fashioned retro games only new next generation goodness that is only found on the new hardware .crazy.

How many games are you exactly playing at the same time and where is the usual Video to accompany the game.

Second thoughts��..Don't worry about the Vid winkits painful enough just reading the name and type of games you are going on about ?

Looks ok���For about 10 seconds then in my case its a remove from hard-drive and delete.

Guessing its some Steam Game,its colourful Toady but as much as i love similar shooters this particular one does nothing for me.

Its Humble Bundle game, whereupon I negotiated a reasonable price for them.

It's a great game, but then I am a fan of shoot-em-ups

You want to see a proper Shoot Em Up then you need a Playstation 4 and Resogun,and for some reason that isn't on a Metal Mickey PC.smile

Why do I need to rob a bank to buy a Playstation 4 .its a third of the cost of any decent PC Gaming Rig.

You can buy a PS4 for £329.97 at GameStop UK, can you post a list of components for a gaming rig within that budget, should include the case and everything within.

Here is just one That is £276
There are many more, some cheaper and some more expensive, and yes, they all run Battlefield 3 without the need to buy any new graphics card, but if you need one, they are from £22 upwards

That has no OS, so add £75 for Widnows 8.1, making it £351. That is more than the PS4 and has onboard graphics, is that good enough to play the latest games at better quality than a PS4 ?

I am not bashing PC gaming or saying consoles are better I am just genuinely interested.I was a PC gamer from around 98-2003 and have built 4 rigs in my time, which I love doing but am pretty out of touch with what are good specs these days. But I do doubt that hardware wise PC's work out cheaper than consoles though obviously you do save on the games.

Or you can have Linux for £0

Or you could get a different system with Windows , like this that has all the usual rubbish with a computer that comes with an OS.

And if you can salvage anything from another computer then you could save more. And with savings of around £15+ per game over the console version, then you'll be laughing all the way to your local GAME store.

Well aware of linux as I use it daily but that can play virtually no games at the moment. Savings on games are a valid point but I don't get through games that fast and PS+ for £39.99 a year keeps me busy most of the time. Last year I bought 2 games, GTA 5 and TLOU, both on ebay under £30 smile

If you like that sort of Syndicate-type game...

You'll be pleased to know I completed Symphony last night - the end of game boss was rather tricky, but upgrading the ship for multiple rockets soon helped, and I did it is just the nick of time.

It was music to my ears.
