Woah okay, where can I get the game? Is it downloadable or buyable?. Thanks :D

For the physical version, you can purchase it from any good local games or online retailer.

For the digital version, you can buy directly from EA's Origin platform or from other online websites.

Ive been hovering over the buy button for a day or two now, you liking it?

Yeah I'm liking it.  It's a quazi-side-scrolling (side scroller, but with a little bit of depth where you can walk forward and back) game.  I'm not sure whether I would call it a "puzzle" game, or a horror game, or what.  There's no story line blatantly announced or told, it just sort of drops you into this world and you sort of figure it out as you go and things happen.

 

I'm still pretty early in the game, I just now made it to the third "level" or "zone" or whatever you wanna call it, but so far I've enjoyed it enough to make it worth the $20 USD I paid for it, :)

 

Edit: Also, here's a link to screenshots I've taken of the game so far: http://steamcommunity.com/id/gerowen/screenshots/?appid=424840&sort=newestfirst&browsefilter=myfiles&view=imagewall

Quake champs (is ok IMO, nothing special tbh, Q3 with new gfx) and Player unknowns Battleground....omg so addictive , put it this way, i lost 11hours to it on Saturday with 3 mates. Only realised once my bum cheeks started to hurt and it was dark outside....oooops bang goes all of saturday then!

 

Also picked up Alan Wake for £2.99 with the DLC, kept meaning to play this when it came out. Ive played the first 30 mins or so, got to the cottage on the island.

I am loving the Last of Us remastered on PS4 Pro  with 4k HDR TV.    Amazing :)


I played it for couple of hours on PS3 before, did not like it much at first...   but now I am 8 hours in and I am loving every bit of it.

 

Also playing Ratchet and Clank and Dishonored 4.    Both only 1 hour in, but liking them so far.

Since I last posted here I finished Horizon: Zero Dawn and Mass Effect: Andromeda.

Now I'm playing The Witcher 3 on the PS4 (had it on PC before but grabbed the "complete edition" on PS4 as well when I found it on sale for $20.  I LOVE CD Projekt Red so I figured I'd put more of my money in their pocket at that price.

 

Also my Steam PC died (I only put Steam on my prior PC as I'm trying to break from Steam and go mostly DRM-free going forward. I still want access to games I already bought though and I often get codes from various things like Kickstarter).  So I'm down to my DRM-free primary PC and the PS4 until I build a new PC later this year (which will become my new DRM-free PC and my current one will become my Steam box).  Also my gf has taken to enjoying watching me game on the PS4 (I can't imagine watching someone else play a game for hours but I'm not going to complain if I get to the be one playing, rofl) so that's what I mostly do now.

When she's not home though and I get some PC time I'm working on Torment: Tides of Numenera but it's slow going as I get very little PC time.

I actually finished "Little Nightmares" a couple weeks ago, but thought I would post my verdict here for those curious about the game.

 

The game is actually fairly short.  I finished my first play-through in 6 hours, and I died a few times and spent some time trying to find some more collectibles on my first time through.  However, the game was only $20 at release, and it's extremely well executed, so I can forgive it for being short.  It's a platformer/puzzle adventure game where your primary goal is to navigate the world without being caught.  It sort of makes me think of something that would be inspired by "Spirited Away" and directed or drawn by Tim Burton.  The story line is never explicitly stated either.  There's no speaking, no written language of any kind, the story unfolds as you interact with the world around you and the characters in it.  It's a beautifully done game though and highly recommend it, :-)

 

If you would like to read it, I have a longer review written on Steam here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/gerowen/recommended/424840

For me, it was worth every hour spend. One of the best modern games I ever played. 

Currently, I'm jumping between Alien, Isolation and Overwatch on the Xbox One.  Alien, Isolation is such a pain to play especially when the Alien can pop out of anywhere.  I've died more than I care to admit because it popped out of a vent shaft or I was too loud walking. :(

I have just finished Mass Effect: Andromeda and I have to say, I actually really enjoyed it. Once you get over the animation issues, it has a good story that I'm looking forward to see how it progresses.

I'll be playing the new Prey next.

ive started playing the latest wildlands DLC, pretty good so far, once you accept you have to now make a 3rd character....no idea why they thought this was a good idea on every DLC for it, it seems, makes all the hours you spent maxing out your perks pointless in the original game.....like duh! But what do you expect from Ubisoft :p

ARMS global testpunch - surprisingly difficult and in-depth fighter. Sadly I don't think it's possible to play without motion controls during the test, but I can see myself enjoying it more without them.

Dawn of War 3

PlayerUnknown's BattleGrounds - finally a survivor / battle royale game which doesn't suck or has a dev making promises which they'll never keep or features that will never be implemented.

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
