It's funny you mention the realism of GTA 5, because it was actually a step away from realism compared to GTA4. The physics in GTA4 was scary good.Karim_myBagheri said:
I think it just felt too realistic/modern in certain ways for me. Which GTA 6 will be as well. for example the first 4 games i listed are all nostalgic pieces. wild west, 1980s Miami, 1990s LA, and late 70s New York. it made them more fun to be in their respected worlds. I'm not saying GTA 5 wasn't good and I shouldn't have said "really disliked it" it's just I didn't enjoy it as much.Friend Or Defoe said:
GTA V was an absolute masterpiece IMO. Surprised you don't rate it. It was the best game i had ever played until RDR2 which raised the bar even higher. The expectation for GTAVI is going to be insane. Anything less than the best game ever made will disappoint a lot of people.Karim_myBagheri said:Really disliked GTA5. played it and gave it away soon afterwards.
In terms of enjoyment I rate rockstar games that I've played like this..
RDR 2
GTA San Andreas
GTA vice city
The warriors
Max Payne
GTA 2
Bully
GTA 3
GTA London
GTA 5
GTA 1
Manhunt
Earth worm Jim 3

I agree, especially the driving and the cars. More realistic.
GTA 4 was really good and it also had other decent downloadable single player stories.
I wasn't a fan of the Russian protagonist and its shame you couldn't fly planes. They were the main downsides.

I recently did some work on Death Stranding 2 and Directive 8020; both look as though they have the potential to be great games, especially if you're into your sci-fi.2

Looking for a cheap 2nd hand switch if anyone has recently upgraded to the switch 2 and is wanting to sell one, will look on ebay but thought I'd mention it here too.0

Ah a fellow Steam Deck owner! How are you finding it?BigRedEvil said:I've bought Metal gear v and Ace combat 7 for my Steam deck
Might sign up to game pass and stream Starfield through it, cloud gaming works really well I find but you do need a good Internet connection0 -
GTA VI pushed back again, this time to November 19th 20260

Not an upcoming game
But just completed Vampyr on PS5
Got the game when I had a PS4 but never got around to playing it so downloaded it when I got a PS5 and have to say it's one of the best games I have ever played, if you haven't played it yet I would advise you to play it

I tried Vampyr for maybe about 20 minutes when I got my PS5, probably one to give another chance at some point.The makers of Vampyr also made Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, it’s another one I might try as it has some decent reviews.For new games I’m looking forward to Resident Evil 9, the recent trailer shows (now much older) Leon Kennedy is playable.
007 First Light looks promising, could fill the gap left by Uncharted.
Was interesting to see there’s two new Tomb Raider games coming, next year a remake of the original, and another in 2027.
The one I really want is the third and final part of the FFVII remake series. Sounds like the title could be confirmed and hopefully with that a release date.0 -
Yeah I may look at Banishers myself @Scoham when I was looking to see if they were planning a Vampyr 2 I saw Banishers mentioned and apparently it's in the same universe (despite being set about 200 years before Vampyr) but it is apparently the same universe with some connecting Lore and references1

Loving Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. Even the janky combat has its charm.0

007 looks good, a mix of the great worlds that IOI put together for Hitman, with more arcade-y action stuff and set pieces like Uncharted0

I'm keeping optimistic about the 007 game.. my worry is it turns out like Hitman: absolution, hope they get the balance a bit better between Hitman style areas and the action areas.0

Sony need to pull their finger out and make a new getaway1

Yep. A new Splinter Cell would be great too. Was a brilliant game.arny23394 said:Sony need to pull their finger out and make a new getaway1 -
Don't really have time to do gaming much. Last game I played through to completion was Control - which was right up there with Portal 2 for me - so looking forward to Control Resonant, which looks amazing

Splinter Cell, Midnight Club, Ridge Racer, a new Bully, there's loads of game franchises I wish they'd reboot1

GTA6 Pre orders 25th of June and on course for the November release. Think I will hold fire on Modern Warfare 4 as wont play it once GTA6 is released.0

Anyone on here played 007 First Light? Really good game IMO, plays like a mix of Hitman and Uncharted, with a decent chunk of action revolving around multiple big sequences in very cool locations that feel like they belong in Bond lore.3

I’ll get on sale, love Uncharted so was one I was keeping an eye, was good to see a lot of positivity about it.sam3110 said:Anyone on here played 007 First Light?

Seems to be more good single player games coming out and lined up this year and next year. Looking forward to FFVII part 3 and RE Veronica especially.0 -
I absolutely adored Portal, but I haven’t played Control. Like you, I don’t get to play games too much.Leroy Ambrose said:Don't really have time to do gaming much.

https://youtu.be/S3kRcurZv5E?si=rIOw202obJAsc5cB
When you say Control is up there with Portal, do you mean it’s a similar game or just that you enjoyed it about as much?
And if it’s different, what sort of game is it?0 -
Control isnt like Portal at all. Control is a third person action/adventure game very similar to Infamous or Quantum Break, Portal is a first person puzzle game. Control is excellent though, you should play it.lordromford said:

Thanks Trev. I reckon I’ll give it a go. 👍🏼CAFCTrev said:

Enjoyed the main game greatly, struggling to want to work through TacSim and replays of main game for completion. Just doesn't feel as fun re-doing it as Hitman always is, even 10 years after WOA first came out. Lennie James was absolutely fantastic, though.sam3110 said:Anyone on here played 007 First Light?

Yeah, very different game - it's combat oriented, but the story is just as good, and some of the set pieces in it are incredible. Honestly, I just played it again a couple of weeks ago, it's even better on the second play through.lordromford said:

I think once they add some DLC and other stuff to it, it'll be even better. Hitman took a few years for IOI to fully flesh out. I agree the replayability isn't huge right now, I feel the challenges could be highlighted a bit more, and some of the game still feels a bit too linear and obvious (graffiti arrows in Aleph literally show you the way to go at times) but it's a very solid base to work from, and the visuals are absolutely stunning IMOliamhappe said:
