What Games Are You Playing?

The old ones were much longer and also had incredible replay-ability.
It's like comparing a Mustang today to a Mustang from the 60's. There's just no comparison.
The "only" way to improve a '67 Mustang would be to put modern brakes on them.

Having never owned a Mustang.... though I did have a verra nice 72 Opel GT....

I've been playing BG3 since early-access and have several hundred hours logged. Also played BG1 and BG2 in their heyday and loved them. They were as good as it gets for their time and are still fun to dabble in once in a while, but I do find BG3 eminently enjoyable and replay-able because there are so many decision trees that are entirely up to your personal choice..... agree to disagree....

Still playing Lords of the Fallen. And doing terribly. I can't beat the first boss, Pieta, who has been said to be overpowered. I figure I'll level up to 100 before being able to beat her!

Well, I was close. I got to level 87 and beat her. It seems that only 67% of players have beaten her. But it's like there's another boss just three feet from her. What on earth?

Who's played and beat the game?

Cant argue with some of the street smarts and logic in this thread LOL. Ofc you could make the 60's mustang better, Take one from then, And one even still from then and replace running gear, suspension etc etc from modern times and itll destroy the original cars laptime. Jeez stupid games stupid prizes!
FYI i love classic cars and wouldn't change it to that but saying it isn't possible to make it better is just silly.

It took me something like 23 hours to beat the first boss, Pieta. I'm sure more skilled players don't take that long. Have fun with the game!

I think @ShamrockRig wanted to know how many hours into the game does the first boss episode begin, not how many hours you spent trying to defeat the first boss

Oh, yeah! Thanks for clarifying that, iko22!

The first boss is only one or two hours into the game. The bosses appear close together as well. It was less than an hour for me to get to the second boss.

Just bought these on Steam during the annual Winter Sale, They are 2020/2021 remasters of the originals with added content and I had a blast playing both on my Playstation 2 which I still have but the updated version should be much better for gameplay & graphics.

Anybody still playing the Division 2?

There was an update released today, and now the game won't start, and I'm getting this error message...

Just want to clarify the update I was referring to was for the game itself. Not the Windows Update, also released today, and of which I've still not applied yet.

Anyway, a PC reboot solved the issue, and the game now starts and runs without issue. In fact, I just had my @$$ handed to me by the Recruiter in the latest Manhunt quest. Will have to take a break and give it another run later as we're now getting electrical fluctuations due to weather in my neck of the woods.

Playing games is something that I never got into, apart from playing the odd game of Tetris.

Still playing Lords of the Fallen. It was nominated on Steam for the game you most suck at.

Just completed The Sinking City - PS5.

Rocking Zombies in MWIII

The last time I played a game was about 40 years ago on a Commodore 64 (C64), that I bought to learn machine language programming (found a compiler working on C64 for that purpose). In my work they had Prime minicomputers for typographical purposes (typesetting machines). I had to maintain those and wrote some testprograms for the purpose in machine language and wanted to practice some more at home. The C64 itself cost about 1000 Gulden, which would (inflation corrected) now be about 1100 Euro. That was excl. the 1541 Disk drive, that cost another 500 Gulden (now 550 Euro). That all for a computer that had 64kByte RAM and had to be booted from cassette tape or the 5¼" floppy disks, having 170 kByte space...

The game I liked most was 'Frogger' (a little frog that has to pass roads and waterways). It had good graphics (for what was possible in those days) and a funny music tune.

After that I never played any game anymore. Although some time ago I discovered that the frogger game can be downloaded to run on a PC as well, so I played it just once. And did not get why the game was amusing me that time, now it was really boring. So I only spent a quarter of an hour and deleted the program afterwards...

Sim Settlements 2

I was bored and read most of this thread, I want to thank everyone for making me realize how old and out of touch I am. I'm totally lost in your gaming world.
