    Saw the credits roll on Super Mario Odyssey at about 00:25. Still a ways to go on this one before I'm finished finished though :)

    I just finished Tacoma today; from the creators of Gone Home. Solid, but nothing spectacular. Took about three hours and that was because I was taking my time reading all the little notes and logs.

    €5 feels like a fair price for it.

    I think I can finish Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice tonight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,846 ✭✭✭✭Liam McPoyle


    Completed The Last of Us remaster yesterday.

    What

    A

    Game

    I think it could well be my favourite game of all time.

    It was breathtaking, tactical, scary, heartwrenching and thrilling at various stages.

    Just a brilliant, brilliant experience.

    Shadow of War. Well, not the full thing, not going to bother with the grind bit to get the "true" ending. The game was alright, but not as good as the first game. I think by having so many different areas and so many more Orcs, you then lose what made the Nemesis system so great. You no longer remember most of the Orcs in the game. The gameplay was barely different from the first (and flying the drake was awful) and the story was just bland. Platinumed the first game but not even going to consider it for this one.

    Done! Having to grind for coins at the end wasn't fun, but didn't take too long.

    Finished 'The Sexy Brutale' a couple of days ago. Clever little puzzle game with a nice story and great music.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,305 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    I finished the demo of Rugby Challenge 3.

    It consists of zero gameplay, and has you make a team of your dreams ... with all the Irish players non-licensed and replaced with generic Irish names not even close to Pro Evo levels of imitation.

    Yeah, not getting that.

    So far this year…

    Observer: A cyberpunk horror from the makers of Layers of Fear and with Rutger Hauer voicing the main character, it wears its Bladerunner influences on its sleeve. It's a game that had a lot of potential but for me personally, it never quite pulled it off. A couple of puzzle that were needlessly obtuse - one in particular I never would have solved without going to the internet. The plot was pants as well. It's not a bad game by any means - it just feels distinctly average which is a shame.

    Hellblade: This was a fantastic game. It has a very oppressive atmosphere, especially when playing with headphones as recommended so I only played it in short bursts. It ticked all the boxes for me - a decent story, really impressive to look at and the gameplay and combat felt very satisfying. Hopefully more developers go down this route and make games like this.

    Just completed Breath of the Wild 2 days ago. It's a breath of fresh air to see an open-world 3D Zelda without the dated aspects that hinder Zelda 1. The combat is also quite strategic, often requiring you to think of smart solutions to defeat a camp of monsters. This system of encouraging experimentation and smart thinking is awesome to say the least.

    I will say this, however. The dungeons in older Zeldas (in general) were better, and I find the soundtrack to be unremarkable. The same can be said for the ending.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭Falthyron


    Just completed Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. Wonderful piece of art and an important game. I hope this is played by as many people as possible.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    Finally got around to completing Uncharted 4. Mostly great, visually incredible. The level of detail is ridiculous. That said, the epilogue was absolutely pointless and the gunplay like all UC games, is just plain bad. Frustrating and not much fun.

    I can forgive that though for the overall goodness.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,036 ✭✭✭wheresmahbombs


    Besides BotW, I have also beaten Super Mario Odyssey.

    Another enjoyable title in the series, though probably not my favourite. Cappy is one concept to behold.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭Falthyron


    Completed 'The Fidelio Incident'. A short 'walking simulator' with very minor puzzles and a mechanic involving the need to stay warm. If you can pick it up for around €5, I think that is a fair price. Beautiful game built with the UE4 engine and headed up by the art director for God of War 3. One thing about this game is that it features two Irish characters which may be of interest to people here. Interesting story and topic.

    Super Mario Odyssey - Nintendo Switch

    Finished the first Lord campaign of the recent TWW2 Tomb Kings expansion there tonight/this morning. Great bit of DLC, faction plays very very different to the rest of the ones that have come before.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,814 ✭✭✭irishman86


    Completed fully Horizon with DLC, the DLC was really good pity there isnt another one though


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,270 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    this year I have been mostly completing

    Shadow of War: enjoyable stuff but a lot more filler and grindy stuff than the last game and also the combat felt easier, maybe that's from me playing al those Batman combat type of games.

    Mirror's Edge: Catalyst - more of the same running and jumping. I skipped over most of the sidequest stuff and time trials and stayed mainly to the story. Not sure if this will get another sequel


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,725 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Life is Strange. What a nice upbeat game.

    Stupid game, making me realise I have a heart and making me make tough decisions.

    But seriously though I thought it was really good

    You'd thank the game for making you make those decisions, as time passes on.

    Super Mario Odyssey - Nintendo Switch
    Call of duty WW2 - PS4
    Crash Bandicoot 2 - PS4

    Oxenfree || Nintendo Switch

    Of all games to finish first after getting my Switch on Xmas lol

    I liked the game but the long loading times and the very bad checkpoint system really put me off playing it on occasions. Its such a short game but it took me the whole week to finish because of the above.

    Maybe those issues are exclusive to the Switch, I dont know.

    Its a short and sweet game with fairly likeable characters. Handy for the €5 I paid for it. (I cant say I would have paid the full price of €20)


  • Registered Users Posts: 877 ✭✭✭_Godot_


    I beat Mario Kart 7 (won all the cups) and Picross e8.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 22,994 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Finished Homeworld 2: Remastered last night. Not as good as the first, but still a very enjoyable game. The music is absolutely fantastic though, and one of the best soundtracks in a game that i can remember.
