24 Comments on This Week in Gaming (Week 24)
I already know that the story is kind of so-so when played on the Switch.
Yeah... I'm not going to admit that I'm going to buy this only to be disappointed again with a bigger screen @ better framerate... XD
I guess I'll replay Sniper Elite 5 again
This is by far the best/funniest scene in whole SMT V, still gets me laughing every time. Probably not intended by the creators! The story was absolute piss, but gameplay is arguably best in series. I hope the new campaign is better but I sure wished they'd have made an entirely new one instead. Oh well.
For the uninitiated: if you never played mainline SMT but played Persona and thought to yourself "I don't care about these teenagers and their stupid bs but combat sure is fun!" - SMT V is the game for you.
The other options were Loser Simulator, Knock (same kind of stupid thing) and BUG, oh and two adult games that I'm not going to post.
At least the game is free...
Nope this week games is not for me at all. Guess it back to play some more Fallout 4 im currently going throw.
I'd tell you all about it, but I have shelves to stock. :rockout:
You have a look yourself.
store.steampowered.com/app/3006630/Loser_Simulator/
store.steampowered.com/app/3016640/Knock/
store.steampowered.com/app/3012510/BUG/
If you are in this predicament again it might be worth opening a thread to see if anyone has a low key great game they can share.
Plus, SteamDB isn't my only source for new games, I actually check other game sites and press sites for new releases.
It really just is a sad week for new games.
Even on teh baddest weeks I always find some game that at least makes me search for it on steam to learn more, even if i end blacklisting it, but this week?, oh boy...
