Re: Argyle's GOTY 2023 Thread!

14. Starfield Oh man…I have kinda dreaded talking about this one. Where to start? Starfield is…a Bethesda RPG. That tells you most of what you need to know. Talk to NPCs to gather a large list of quests, discover “faction” quests that are often better than the main story, pick up everything that is...

Re: The Haul Thread 2024

Phase, I know you and I both love classic TR, so I'm very eager to hear your opinions on it. I've already read and watched plenty, but I'm curious how you feel about it when you get around to it as well. Let us know your take when you play it. (And in case you wonder, I'm "team classic" c...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 319: 2/10/24: Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden/Skull & Bones/Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Edi

I'm in chapter 13 of LAD now - chapter 12 was INSANE! :shock: I'm convinced at this point that the boss fights scale with your level, because I had played through all 30 floors of the arena before pushing forward with the story in 12 and that fight against Majima still kicked my ass. Right now I'm ...

I just dropped $1.99 on McPixel 3. Gotta be worth that much. :P

Indeed.

The mascot, Ono Michio, first appeared in Yakuza 6.

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 318: 2/3/24: Helldivers II Edition

I finished up Boku no Natsuyasumi 2. What a *ridiculously* charming game. Any who are willing to emulate and like the idea of an off-beat, life-sim / childhood summer vacation, easy-breezy type of experience really ought to try it out. I spent a little over 19 hours with it, but I had time passage ...

Re: 2024 Movie Discussion Thread

I thought it was a great movie. Maybe it's because I'm old enough to remember the furor over the Manson family, which is endlessly horrifying/interesting. I thought Leo and Brad Pitt were great in their roles, and I was glued to the screen even before things started going off. I saw a movie Saturday...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 317: 1/27/24: Granblue Fantasy: Relink/Persona 3 Reload/Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice Le

OK, so two things. First, I finished Star Ocean: Second Story R the other night. I've had to process what to say about it. On the one hand, it's a ton of fun to play. The battle system is simple and breezy, button-mashy but in a fun way and fights are over quickly. Most of the heavy lifting strateg...
