    Driver was the s--- back on the PS1...they hyped the s--- out of this game and it was just s---. Parallel Lines was a lot better but god d--- you can't come back from this trashcan game

    what about new dawn? I really like the color pallette, might download both that and 5 tbh. Loved far cry 2/3 but never played the rest

    Cyberpunk 2k77, never in my life has a video game left me this sad, disappointed and confused.

    Same issue here with Witcher 3. Just can't get into it. Oblivion is better than Skyrim, maybe give that a try if you don't outright dislike that type of game.

    Spawn on the PS1. I remember saving up all my allowance money at the time and even skipping a school party to save up even more money just to buy that game. Copped brand new, it was trash from the first second.

    Have you played The Division or Division 2? Decent 3rd person shooter, pretty repetitive and s--- but - NYC and DC in those games are f---ing amazing. Recreated and morphed into the lore of the world so well, it's honestly worth playing either just for that.

    I tend do agree. I will say the urban combat feeling of 3 was cool. Along with the greatest companion in Fallout history:

    Same, these sales are dangerous. But the Mega Deluxe Ultimate Edition for 20 bucks instead if 90? Now that's an offer I can't resist.

    Will def peep Dying Light—I'm down for any and all post-apocalyptic stuff. I promised myself I'm gonna finish a chunk of the games I already own before buying anything new though lol cuz I definitely went HAM on PSN/amazon sales during quar lol.

    IOI doesn't get enough credit for their game design and execution. Definitely a top 5 studio right now imo.

    Yeah, I definitely know what you mean. There are some places that are virtually impossible to clear without upgraded gear/new items/progressing the story and I think that's mostly by design.

    Should I play Dying Light? I don't know much about it

    Also definitely Fallout 4. That was one of the first major game releases during SXN80's tenure and it's funny looking back at how excited everyone was and then how disappointing it was. So buggy and they simplified that series way too much.

    Are you not a big survival horror fan? I didn't love Days Gone but I had fun with it—I thought the motorcycle mechanic was dope and it takes place in the pacific northwest so I'm always a sucker for that. With those types of games if you're looking for run and gun you're gonna be disappointed cuz the key is to get creative and use alternate methods like stealth or causing a distraction elsewhere to get them to congregate somewhere else while you rush in.

    highly recommend ootp!! the management angle is super fun. you can of course go into each game and make decisions pitch-by-pitch, but i usually let each day’s game sim and play as a manager/gm hybrid, so that i’m setting lineups but also worrying about the rule 5 draft etc
