What are you playing?

Let's play some Super Mario 3 on NES. Of course I play all levels though all levels aren't neccessary

Lara Croft Go is probably the most addictive puzzle game I've ever played.
I've played about ten hours on the Steam version, but when I changed phones, lost all my mobile saves, but I managed to copy the PC saves over to my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, having to install FV File Explorer app first because of Android file protection.
I only mention this because I've got a long haul flight coming and this game really eats up the time! In fact, I may even buy a Samsung tablet in the UK for the return flight and a better viewing experience.

Have you tried these? Good games.

Aliens: Dark Descent, WH40k: Inquisitor after then something else in my backlog
 
Well nearly 5hrs in Fallout London, and for some reason i'm either lucky or just got it set up well. No mods at all, just clean install of FOGOTY from GOG, then FOL installed in same folder as FOGOTY. It's pretty hard, hard to find ammo, and stuff sells to vendors for peanuts. Not had a crash in hours, so i'll persevere with it while it seems to be ok, and not touch it with mods or anything.

Yes I have them on Steam, but found the controls with kbd/mouse very challenging.
I'll have another go in case I misunderstood how to use them.

Worked fine IMO with a Xbox controller :)
 
I just tried both and it's extremely difficult with keyboard and mouse.
 
This week I got back into COH3 and must say that I am enjoying destroying Nazi forces in Italy. If this is on sale under $20 buy it.
 
Let's play another match of CS2 dm. Gotta love that I got a high-refresh monitor, I play at low yet still runs at 200+ fps at 4K.
 
RDR2, finally working on missions, then the steam overlay interrupts and causes a out of memory error.


180W and 60% use at 40-60FPS on the GPU with everything except MSAA maxxed out.

Do you happen to have SAM enabled with Vulkan ? That's what caused out of memory crashes in RdR 2 with my 6800. It's a known issue appatently https://steamcommunity.com/app/1174180/discussions/0/3068614788780696559/?l=schinese&ctp=2 and requires either disabling SAM or switching to dx12
 
Replayed NFS Heat again as my original save file got corrupted, tried a different set of cars this time round.
Think I mainly used Subaru Brz,Mazda RX7, BMW M2 and Lambo Aventador in my original save.

Engine swapped the FK2 Civic Type-R for a flat 6 engine with 1000bhp+ potential to finish the game off.

I really hope you get your issues sorted out because RDR2 is just amazing. I have 100's of hours in it, giving it a rest for a bit, but will eventually get back to it to finish off more of the game.

Yeah I still need to finish this one too, kinda got repetitive gameplay wise after escaping the prison island so I paused it but its fantastic otherwise.

Yes it is amazing, if you can get past that pos Rockstar Games Launcher which asks for login and verification every time it updates, if it doesn't crash once updated.
Don't get me wrong, RDR2 is a work of art, but the launcher is nauseating.

:D I had the same problem with those Need for Speed. I realize that I always use the same cars, RX-7, Supra, GT-R ... yes mostly Japanese !
So for the last NFS played, I choose only US cars for a change !
Was cool, Now I put in my list the Mustang, the Viper and the Corvette :)

Finished DOOM, on PSOne
Such a great game, still very playable on console, as you don't have to bother with aiming up and down.
I really prefer the "mood" of this console port, It almost plays like a survival horror.
It's even darker than the original, some reworked lights and above all, a very dark/ambient music filled with strange noise, it fits the game perfectly !
As you can see on the screenshoots, I use the God mode ...
I loose my skills for sure. Back in time, my cousin an me were able to finish the game easy in the higher difficulty.
We were playing it non stop, knowing by hearts the levels, searching for every secrets ... good old summer vacations times !
Now I haven't the time to play it at 100%, so God mode to cruise throught the levels and to remind memories :)

Doom (Europe) 2024-05-20-18-43-18.png

The console version contains Doom and Doom II !

Red Sky, fountain of Blood : it's Doom for sure !

Hanged bodies, evisceration, wichtcraft symbols, it's Doom fore sure ! (part II)

Isn't that the best console port of Doom? :)

I don't even do missions in rdr2, got 250+ hours and I barely progressed past the 1st camp near Valentine.
I just wander around. Find stuff, steal horses, hunt, explore, rob, kidnap. It's by far the best open world game ever, where you can just immerse yourself for hours roaming around.

Those screenshots are stunning!
What are you running it on?

I think, better than Snes and 32X for sure ! :laugh:
The game isn't perfect though (fps drops sometimes).
I know you can mod the original PC version to look like the PSOne like, THIS should be the best version !

Yes you're right !
Never realized how RDR2 was so good looking !

Haven't tried the PS1 version myself but just thought that since AVGN says that it's a good port.

 
I finished Yakuza Kiwami 2 and as I always say - whenever "you have nothing to play", it's great to go next Yakuza installment!

Now let's check this Call of Duty added to Game Pass PC.

I guess it's high time I started it, then. Walking simulator is my middle name for a reason. :ohwell: So far, the king of the genre is Kingdom Come Deliverance in my eyes. I can't wait for the second one to come out!
