F me I have been killing Grid Legends all holiday. The Mazda 787B can do 140mph in 3rd gear and there is such a nice feeling changing gears while you pass 2 or 3 cars on the outside. Then the electric cars have 1 gear. It is something to drive an electric car that can do 248mph at Mount Panorama.

I loved the story mode of Grid Legends with that rivalry and banter. Stories don't usually work in racing games and end up cheesy and overcooked, but in Legends they nailed it.

Yapmam gereken 2 saat boyunca öğütmek ve seviyelerimi yükseltmekti.. 9 seviye bir dünya fark yarattı! Ayrıca silahlarımı ve zırhımı geliştirmek için bazı eşyalar için çiftçilik yaptım. Şapkamı 30 saniye içinde bana teslim etmeden önce. :korku:Seviyelendirmeden sonra, bu 2 dakika süren bir savaştı! Buna değer! :rockout:İlerleme zamanı!

Söylemeliyim ki, bu hikaye düşündüğümden daha eğlenceli!:alkış:

787B is one of the most amazing (racing) cars in the whole automotive history. It was too good to be allowed to carry on.

Yep nothing could touch it and it made Gear heads the RX7 a must buy. This is one of the beauties of Sim Racing.

The cars, tracks and rivalry are definitely part of the hook. I went through the first story in 2 sessions. The amount of killer Vintage and Modern Racing cars in the Game are also stellar. The example I would use would the Cadillac DPI. Apparently you can get elements of the Grid Driver Game from the early 2000s too but I have not yet got it as the Game is on Gamepass.

Death Stranding and I don't think I have ever been this intrigued by a game. If you got it in the Epic giveaway, give it a whirl. It is nuts.
Sadly I couldn't even claim it for some stupid reason. Kept throwing an error about my account already having exceeded limit for free games within 24h when I haven't even claimed any free game.

Edit.
Here we go again...

I'm more thinking about the fact that SPOLIERS BELOW SERIOUSLY IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED THIS GAME AND KNOW LITTLE ABOUT IT DO NOT READ IT
The sentient fetus-baby I'm carrying is crying because I fell and that the stack in that picture isn't a stack but my dead mom who has to be burned before she turns into ... what exactly? WHAT IS THIS GAME

Oh and I got a whole lot of likes for burning the corpse of my mother who is also the president of the America leftovers WHAT IS THIS GAME




monster energy drinks? WHAT IS THIS GAME WHY

Do report back if its noticeably better than the original maxed out, cause if I play it again for the third time I might do it with the remaster:) . 'not like it matters much but still if I have the option to choose then why not'

I love 2016 Doom a lot, also finished it 2 times already but I will be damned if I don't do it again and have the game installed at all times in case I feel like doing a random map. :laugh: 'same with Eternal tho, keeping it installed for that reason cause I do randomly play 1-2 maps and such'

Yes it's fit perfectly with the reboot ...
But did you try the PSOne version of the original Doom (and Final Doom) ?
The soundrack was different from the PC version, way way more dark, it really change the experience ! :)

Nope. I played the original as a kid with my cousin's dad's PC and not any of its ports later on.

As I've watched the Aussie youtuber SMOOREZ, he likes this as much as I do:

SMT V is a bit disappointing, even though it's still fine. Two biggest gripes: story and the open world. For the love of YHVH I do not understand who decided that spending almost entire game in a version of Blasted Tokyo from SMT IV is a good idea. Everything looks the same, same assets, same sand, same ruined buildings, nothing ever changes except for colour filter. By the end of Shinagawa it feels tiresome, by the end of Chiyoda it feels like an insult. Even great music that's playing in the background is getting boring because it's just one track for 15 hours you spend in the zone if while completing every quest and collecting all Mimans. At least they spruce it up with a demon castle before sending you back into same crap but now blue, again.

The story is a step back too. In interviews devs said they went for Nocturne's "weird charm" - it's just not there.

Overall I'm still hooked to the combat and demons and will definitely rebuy the PC port if it arrives right on release but I hope they invest more time into world and its characters in the next one.

I'd definitely get flamed for this, but rn I'm playing Genshin Impact, and also from the same devs, Honkai Impact 3rd. They're fun to me, they're also the best games I could run on my emergency RX 550. :|
