If Tarkov ever comes to Xbox, I might check it out. For now, I'm waiting for DayZ to go back on sale on Xbox so I can get it.

Same time, made it to Year 2 of Stardew Valley! Got married (Penny), fainted twice, and now raising two chickens with the names Meat Loaf and Blackie (Lead singer of W.A.S.P) :)

Nah, it's my fursona wearing his red leather jacket....though I do see the similarities to TF2's Sniper (Someone else said it was a Mountie xD )

Found a recent mod for Doom 3 which I'd never heard of before... just called Phobos.
Apparently it's really good. And I haven't played the original version of Doom 3 in a long time so I'm looking forward to giving it a shot.

Sorry man. Only Xbox One here.

Speaking of which, picked up DOOM 64 on Xbox on Friday (No, I didn't get Doom Eternal yet. Doom 64 was a pre-order bonus, but you can now buy it separately) and, I gotta say, I am impressed with it! I would've loved to have owned this on the N64 back in the day.

I don't have a PSN account, and none of the accounts on the PS4 have the paid service that allows gameplay with others.
I have ideas and I occasionally put them down.

Sonic Pocket Adventure for the Neo Geo Pocket Color is the first time a quality Sonic The Hedgehog title hit a third party handheld. I've been playing it on and off throughout my life and I have to say that it's a grand time from start to finish. I have yet to collect every puzzle piece but I have completed it many times. Play it all the way through any means necessary.

I've been getting into Fallout Shelter. It's a management game where you take survivors, build a place to live in, manage resources, and send some on scouting and missions. It's been pretty fun, surprisingly.


I suck at management games, though.

Rather excited for Analogue Pocket. It is hyped as the ultimate Game Boy and I'm looking forward to amassing a large library of games for it, the Super NT, and the Mega SG.

A sorrow is that the NT Mini Noir is out of my pocket book at a whopping 500 dollars. I hope I could see a release of the NT Mini as a adapter core for Super NT.

So it seems like there’s a group that’s adapting the first storyline of Bionicle into an open world RPG, and it..... actually looks pretty dang good.
Play The Hayseed Knight. This isn’t self promotion, I just really like the game.

You ever realize that the two longest pieces of literature in existence are both fanfics? Weird right?

I ended up stumbling across some fanart of the game on DeviantArt and it is almost making me want to go and play the game but then I realize that I don't have my GameCube or Wii anymore and those were the last consoles I had before I got tired of video games. :oops:

To just hop in here, My favorite video game series is the Kingdom Hearts series. But my favorite actual game to play is Spider-man (2018). I've played though it like 10 times plus all the DLCs.

Also, I occasionally play Oldschool Runescape on my phone. But that's very seldom.

So if you mod Skyrim too much, archery just starts to break. Arrows will just not fire sometimes, other times they fire like 2 seconds after you let the bow loose.

I'm trying to get into skyrim again, bit I don't think I can. I feel like now a days I need more structure in my games to really enjoy them alone. Or maybe I don't like the movement system.

It's basically you going around Disneyland doing jobs (collecting and finding items) and interacting with various Disney Characters (Ranging from Mickey to Stitch to, surprisingly, Br're Fox and many more) while riding the various famous attractions (with some neat gameplay elements). It's very clearly a kid's game but, oddly, I'm having fun with it! Heck, it's a cheap alternative to going to the real place :lol:

I could see it being pretty good in VR (seeing as the company also made Elite Dangerous and Planet Coaster).

What are those games? I've heard of them, but I think they're PC? My PC gaming knowledge is incredibly limited. I really only play consoles minus like 4 PC games.

Elite Dangerous is on consoles (Xbox One) and it's a open-ended space-flight sim game where you do jobs in a 1:1 scale of the Milky Way. Planet Coaster (PC for now with Xbox One coming in August I think) is a theme park sim like Roller Coaster Tycoon.

I definitely know roller coaster tycoon~

Oh? Huh. Maybe it's just outside my area so I don't know it. I'm mostly on . . .action adventures? (assassins creed, fallen order, spider man, Uncharted) , Shooters, but mostly Fighters ( KI, Smash, DBZF, Thems fightin Herds)

But, That' sounds like an ambitious game. Wait, is that the one that sometimes pops up in gaming news where massive clans war and it;s like a couple of thousand people each?

Have you checked out 'Power Rangers: Battle For The Grid' (Disclaimer: I was given a copy to review)? It's a simple fighting game but I found it to be surprisingly one of the more fun fighters I've played.

I've played it. Very MVCI esque. I would get into it if it was cheaper. But I will say apparently the netcode is pretty good so that might be a good enough reason to play. I saw the side tournament at EVO and apparently you can do some nasty stuff.

I may be the only person on this site who plays Elite Dangerous, but something big worth sharing just went down. Last night Frontier Developments accidentally uploaded a reveal trailer for next year's big DLC update, whose contents were under wraps until now. The trailer was taken down shortly thereafter, but reuploads are available. It's obvious that ED's two most requested features, space legs (getting out of the pilot's chair and walking around) and atmospheric planet landing (currently only atmosphere-lacking planets can be landed on and explored), will be added under the title Elite Dangerous Odyssey. I'm reserving my glee until an official word, but that can't stop a little bit of hype :D

I've just been playing Borderlands: GOTY on Xbox One. Fun game, though I keep forgetting how tedious the first two areas are.
