Given how voice acting is top notch in pretty much every video game these days, I’m amazed that the Final Fantasy series manages to consistently buck that trend. Haviny said that, bad voice acting aside I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the demo. Part of that enjoyment almost certainly came from nostalgia, and there’s definite scope for my opinion to change depending on how linear a game this turns out to be, but I’m convinced enough by what I’ve seen to have pre-ordered.

lanky316 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Yeah originally it was some sort of over run thing that caused a high negative score when made lower into going round to a crazy high number. Since it became so popular it's been coded into every game since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Cod Eye Posted March 8, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 8, 2020 Anyone who has a Switch that has suffered with the Joy-Con drift issue, did it do it all the time or with only certain games? My youngest has just been on Mario cart and the car was pulling to the left all the time, but when I tried Minecraft(the only other game she had with her) it seems fine(then went back to pulling to the left again when Mario Cart was on again). Does that sound like the drift issue, or something else? She's only had it sonce Christmas, so feels like too short a time for a problem like this rearing it's ugly head...

Keith Houchen Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 On a whim and in the sale, I got Train Sim World 2020 for a tenner or so. Lads, I fucking love it. I’m sat there sticking to speed limits and sticking to timetables, and pretending to go out of the cab for a sneaky fag while the passengers get on.  My girlfriend called me a fucking loser because when a train goes past me the other way, I do the Manchester Metrolink driver salute that they all do. She may be right but I don’t give a fuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check that the assist steer or motion controls are off in the Mario kart settings. Mario kart has a useful yet annoying habit feature of auto assist steering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Danger Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Yeah Mario Kart had me thinking it was drift when it was just motion controls. Apparently even the new Joy-Cons are still suffering with the drift. I tried that FF7 demo to completion and it's just not for me. The Mr T guy is so so bad. I got the impression I'd be in and out of menus all game. If the game had a wheel I could flick around during battles I'd be much more interested. It looked great though and I'm sure the people who cosplay as the characters will have plenty of material to wank over. Over on Horizon I'm just over half way through I tried my first cauldron which happened to be the Thunderjaw battle. At level 20 it was near impossible and after a couple of hours of getting agonisingly close I tapped out. It's brilliant despite a few minor flaws. I find myself obsessing about tactics to defeat the different dinobots. Not that tactics matter because you can just be walking between villages then get attacked by robot buffalo's that lead you into a glinthawk battle that ends when a giant crocodile jumps out of the water and eats you.

I’m saving the Pennines run for Christmas! Victoria to Leeds! Might even take the train for real to see how it compares! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Danger Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I finished Horizon Zero Dawn over the weekend. It's one of the best games on PS4 for sure. I'd say it just falls short of joining my holy trinity of greatness of RDR2, BOTW and GoW but it's really not far off. I'd say only a fairly weak story and poor voice acting outside of the Aloy voice actor and Lance fucking Reddick lets it down but that's mostly because of the Only Way is Essex style writing of the conversation options. "So tell me about your sister". The side missions can be great dungeon style affairs or cool little combat tutorials but mostly fall in to the fetch quest category. The star of the show is definitely the combat and if they perfect that as well as add a stronger story then the sequel will be something special. Has a great final mission too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Justice Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Finished Shadow of the Tomb Raider yesterday. If there intention was to make Lara a boring dullard, they succeeded. The whole game was a chore to get through, with the sneaky sneaky combat being the only good thing about it. I'm going to play Uncharted again to cleanse my soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
