I ended up binging on this game DRAINUS over the last handful of days...

Overall this is one of the best shoot 'em ups I have probably ever played. Absolutely is the best I've played that is considered modern and most importantly from this experience has reignited my interest in this genre. Highly recommended for fans of shoot 'em ups and is very accessible for any new comers as well!

THANK YOU for this!!! I was on vacation when I read your post and figured I'd add it to my shopping cart and maybe check it out later on. We got home a few days ago and I remembered to try it and love it! I'm a fan of basically all of the games you've mentioned in your original post, so this game is right up my alley haha.

Thanks again for posting about this one, it's a really good time. :clap:

yeah I plan to sell my PS5 soon, I just love my PC too much... only thing I want PS5 for was exclusives, but since those are all basically all coming to PC (except for FFXVI and Horizon VR) I have no need. It was an impulse buy. I will def be losing money selling it now, but oh well. good lesson learned.

Now I am left wondering all day long what button A might do. Thanks!

You should never attempt to press button A. It's in the annex of instructions, section D, paragraph 47.

Dishonored bc it was free on the epic games launcher when I got it ain’t free anymore

was a $25/$20 value compared to steam (was definitive edition costs 19 for definitive and 25 for base game alone and buying all the dlc separately) and has low min requirements running over 60 fps with low graphics at 1080

Warcraft 3 (not reforged) and man it's good and it also reminds me of why World of Warcraft used to be sooooo good.

Works of art built and written by talent...

Its all the little things, for me that made WC3 what it is. I fondly remember many of the units' voice lines when you kept clicking them. Everything just works beautifully together. And also the mechanics... man they are good...

KrazyT · Jan 7, 2023

Just desinstall COD Vanguard ...
It's me or this game is stupid ?
The solo campaign, what an horror !
5 minutes of ultra scripted corridor shooting, cinematics, rince and repeat.
I quit versus the Polina's boss, need to stab him 3 times ... soooooo bad !

Started Evoland 2 and PC building Simulator

Super Firm Tofu · Jan 7, 2023

Playing a few titles at the same time, but back to working my way through the story in Uncharted. (forgot to turn off the overlay for the screenshots :oops:

)

*Edit* - This game keeps getting better looking :rockout:

Splinterdog · Jan 7, 2023

Sniper Elite 5 is a very underrated game and it's only because I keep forgetting that I still have GamePass and get reminded by notifications, that...
I must be getting old, but anyway, you get the gist.

What did you do to catch up on the first 3 games worth of stories? Or did you play those on Playstation?

KrazyT · Jan 8, 2023

The Uncharted games were already eye candy on PS, i could imagine how good they are on PC !

MrDoggus · Jan 8, 2023

Black desert, bought it 1 year ago but spent like 2 hours on it, now i'm picking it up again.

cool and you're welcome! it's why I share only positive stuff here rather than the "this game sucks, everyone must avoid" kinda advice. I'd rather prop up a good game and I'm glad you liked this one a lot too. I did end up getting R-Type Final 2 over the Steam winter sale and by comparison, wow, there is a lot of content in the latest R-Type especially with all the DLC. I'm enjoying this one even more than Drainus

I didn't really. I understood the general story line, and the beginning of 4 gives a really high-level overview. Maybe one day if Sony brings the first three to PC I might give them a try.

GamingLove · Jan 8, 2023

Even if I'm more into Battlefield style of FPS I'm currently playing CoD MWII and I have to say that's its quite fun.
And to chill I play F.I.S.T.

I wish this was on GOG!

gffermari · Jan 8, 2023

Shadow of Tomb Raider: Quite boring in general but interesting riddles.
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order: I don't like the graphics, it feels old to me, but I like the charachers/dialogues.
Metro Exodus: The graphics are very good but not interesting as a game. Very bad voice acting, dialogues etc.

Apart from Steam, you can buy it from Microsoft/XBox at a very high price and it's included in GamePass.

Buy Sniper Elite 5 | Xbox

The award-winning series returns as Karl Fairburne fights to uncover Project Kraken in 1944 France. The genre-defining authentic sniping, with enhanced kill cam, has never looked or felt better as you fight across immersive maps to stop the Nazi war machine in its tracks.

Knowing Lex he won't bother with it since it requires sharing your data with MS.
