BF1 campaign PS4
AC Syndicate. But I have to start it again as Uplay deleted my account because I was called Smeggod and they don't like that. [censored]
AC the one in France

I have Batman Arkham Knight but I'm bored of it so won't bother
Oh yea and I suppose I should have another go at TLOU

Problem is many games are now getting overlooked because of the crammed release schedule, am i the only one on here playing the brilliant Watchdogs 2 [i think so] I am the only one on here playing Dishonoured 2 another massive improvement on a very good first game and with reviews to match.

I buy more games than most on here i agree, but some people will just stick with games like MW Remaster and Battlefield 1 when there are plenty of better games out there with some brilliant single player experiences.

Personally i blame the developers/publishers for lost revenue and games not hitting the targets,titanfall 2 is a massive improvement over the first game yet has poor sales even though its now Multiplatform and not a Microsoft exclusive product, it has a fantastic single player experience this time around and a great multiplayer mode much better than the recent Cod,How many on here have it or have played it, yet again only Myself and Jorkila.

If you choose to release about 6/8 games all what are considered AAA games in the space of 3 weeks then expect the sales of your games to be a lot poorer than they would had you released it in a least crammed release schedule.

They do it year in and year out, nothing in June,July ,August ,September then the usual avalanche of games in Oct/Nov which people can not afford and i get that, even if you do buy them you can seriously only focus on one game at a time so you generally end up playing a game for a few days until the next one drops through the letterbox and then you move on to that one and so on and so fourth, not ideal and kind of stupid i agree.

Im sticking with Watchdogs 2 for now and will go back to Dishonoured 2 ,killing floor 2 and a fair few others i have had limited play time with once I'm done with this game which will be literally ages.

Im not a Final Fantasy fan but having watched a lot of the visuals and gameplay mechanics of this game which looks breathtaking i will be giving this another go now they have somewhat changed the battle system a little bit more to my liking and not so many of those random battle scenarios of the past FF games.

The game that excites me most is almost here and its the last game for me for 2016 and thats The Last guardian which i know will be a classic,Oh and not forgetting Dead Rising 4....

You see i love Zombie army trilogy and its a brilliant co/op game,its not graphically pleasing but its so much fun with another friend, but yet again its a game that most of us on here played for a couple of nights and then slung it to one side and moved on to other games.

Online i really enjoyed the game and i will go back to it, my only real fun i have with any online game to be fair is Gears 4 Horde and thats about it for me.

Online games have far less appeal to me last 18 months and fail to inspire me for much more than about 30 minutes' loved the new Zombie mode in the latest Cod for about a week but i quickly became bored with that after about level 10 as it just got plain stupid and confusing and to be fair ...To dam Hard.

I have finished the story in Mad Max but there are still side missions to do which I would like to go back to as it is a brilliant game, would have totally over looked that one if it wasn't for the recommendations on here. Other than that there aren't really any I have started and not finished.

Currently doing a second play through on Deus Ex and will have Doom to play when it arrives. After that would like to get Tomb raider. Not all that much else that has me interested.

I hated the Doom demo so didn't bother with it. Will definitely pick up tomb raider at some point, but want to spend crimbo catching up on the others first.

Doom is possibly one of the best games released this year, surpassed my high expectations and it has loads of custom maps to play through, but if it wasn't for you i completely understand even though its a outstanding FPS.

It looked great. I can't quite put my finger on why it didn't float my boat, it just didn't. I wasn't enamoured by the no reloading idea. It also felt a little flat when you were running around, like you were gliding? Not sure really.

Not sure i get the No Reloading bit, you mean guns or what ? You can certainly reload your weapons unless i have not noticed that aspect of it.

In the demo you didn't reload. You just walked over the ammo and it automatically went straight into the gun without even a reload animation. Maybe it's necessary when things get really hectic, but I prefer to have to press a button to pick things up, or to reload.

Have to check that i seriously didn't notice mate but you could well be right if true its obviously didn't bother me though ?

Seems like it's an old skool thing, but I wasn't that keen.

Haha where do I start? Pretty much every game I've bought in the last 2 1/2 years lol

Actually that's a lie, there is one game that I have no desire to finish whatsoever!!
Any guesses what it is, I'll give you a clue and say it's on PS4 and if I went back to it my controller would end up through my TV

Didn't notice that myself and I enjoyed the demo so hopefully enjoy the full game.

Bloodbourne. and one of the best games in the last decade,extremley frustrating and really hard but once mastered there is no better game of this type on the market.

I do think the developers should have patched it and introduced a Swanny Mode so it was way more easier to play.

I remember playing it for the first time and thought this game is amazing but its just to dam hard,what was funny is after about 4 hours of getting nowhere i watched a video and the guy was at the same place i was within 20 minutes .

Its a shame because i discard many game with frustration, mainly games that have a terrible control system or are just generally boring,Bloodbourne is none of these but i think coming from the Dark Souls Franchise well known for been the hardest games on the market was its flaw.

Im sure if there was an option to make this game a little bit easier it would have sold double the amount it has, have spent possibly 50 hours plus on this game and i was nowhere near finished, i must return, but with so much else out i doubt i ever will even though its pure Class.

Haha got it in one!!

What did you expect ?Timey knows you like the back of his hand

It's not the fact that it's hard; it's pretentiously hard.

If they had an easy mode I would have really enjoyed it, but they seem to be under the impression that all gamers are still bedroom dwellers.

Great art style, great mechanics......what a waste.

Yeah I completely agree!! Great game spoiled by it's difficulty!

Good job you both passed on Dark Souls 3 then because thats on another level and even harder.

Swanny mode would be for Elite players only

Glad I didn't get that game then I was thinking of it.

You need loads of time, loads of patience, and most importantly (for me at least) peace and quiet! So much concentration is required, that you need some sort of super focus. Most adults don't get that amount of time to dedicate to gaming, let alone just one game.

Definitely not for me then

Was hoping to play some Doom tonight put popped it in the PS4 and it needs a 22 GB (!) update..think that is a over night job on a 6 meg line.

But whatever is said about the game been extremely difficult which i agree the game is one class act.

Yep, no argument there. That's the most annoying part.

And now my OP is about to go out the window.

I'm tempted as hell to pick up Shadow Warrior 2 on PC...

Yeah it would have had far more admirers had they toned the difficulty down some what i still to this day haven't even got anywhere near finishing it and thats besides putting about 50 hours in.

I just start to really enjoy the game and then die like 2 hrs from the last lantern or something and want to smash something up lol

Been playing Doom the past 2 days and yes you are right there's no reloading and you auto pick things up, I didn't even think about it until you mentioned it. Think you are right that its necessary as it is a very fast paced, frantic game and there's no time for that. Great game btw really enjoying it

Really hate games that don't have frequent auto saves, the more frequent the better IMO. I just get annoyed otherwise.

Completely agree this is such a great game haven't finished it yet but it just gets better and better as you progress. So fast paced and crazy but fantastic, puts a smile on my face when you are fighting loads of demons/monsters with the great music playing. Difficult at times but such fun.

Feels refreshing to play a game that is basically just about killing and platforming

Nelly I think you should try to over come your dislikes about the reloading as it is just about as good as a FPS gets.

Having auto load feature makes absolutely no difference, this is a fine fps with amazing set pieces and action and it looks lovely and plays superbly.

Ssshhh! I might have to pick it up when the price drops, but keep it under your hat or else I'll get a rollocking.

Damnabbit, I used my outside voice again.....
