RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted April 20, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 20, 2019 I find it interesting that the PS5 is apparently to have ray traced graphics, but on an AMD GPU, not one of the recent Nvidia ones. I wonder if the next XBox will get something similar, seeing as AMD seem to have a monopoly on console chipsets...? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold big jim Posted April 21, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 21, 2019 Had a bit of a gaming weekend..... I’ve downloaded a flight game called Ace Combat 7 to the Xbox, done a couple of missions so far, not too bad a game, good with the surround sound on to hear other planes circling round yoU, it says it’s available as a VR game on PS4 but I could imagine it would get a bit disorienting very quickly! been cracking on with forza 4 on XBox doing various tasks and missions played super smash bros ultimate on the switch via the big screen but struggled as the A and B buttons on Nintendo are transposed compared to the Xbox so I kept pushing B instead of A and vice versa! Picked up a PSP from a car boot today for £2 with tiger woods, fifa 09 and r-type, fully expected it not to work but got it home and plugged it in and worked perfectly, it can be used as an extra PS4 controller too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted April 22, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 22, 2019 Games with Gold on the XBox have an updated version of 'Outcast' for free at the moment. I remember the PC version of the game from the late 90s as being one of the first to have an original score performed by a real orchestra. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big James Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Just treated myself to a switch. Gotta day first time in a long time a new console has felt like a significant upgrade from it predecessor. Plus super Mario odyssey and super smash brothers ultimate is as good as any exclusive on the PS4 and Xbox 1. Big james 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold big jim Posted April 22, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 22, 2019 I’ve had my switch a few weeks now, quite enjoying it, the little un won’t give up his mario games for me to borrow though but we have played Mario kart 8 via the projector which is brilliant smash bros ultimate is enjoyable, between us we have 8 “joycons” so I should imagine an 8 player brawl would be a right laugh (just need 8 friends now!) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SE 4 was the first of the series that I played and loved it so much, bought SE 3 in a steam sale for a couple of quid. Never went back as far as 2 though so this will be a good opportunity to try it. Strangely I was talking with my brother the other day and he said "I wonder if they are doing an SE5 yet?"

Details are scarce but the next Xbox is rumoured to be even more powerful than the PS5 will be. Slightly connected, there's a set of short animated films on Netflix currently under the banner of Love, Death, Robots. Some of the photo-realistic films are stunning and perhaps an indication of where game graphics are heading in the near future. C6T. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classsix T Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) Hmm, rather strangely, there was a review embargo on Days Gone until half an hour ago. The two I've read seem to agree it has its plus points but lacks in areas that would've made it a must own title, including what many thought to be its jaw dropper usp. Shame. I think I'll pop into the shop tomorrow and see if Metro Exodus has come down in price before deciding on Days Gone. C6T.

Classsix T Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Give Ellie a motorbike and promise hundreds of Clickers on-screen in Last of U Know What and Sony might have saved themselves a whole loada grief! I'm seeing slightly higher review scores online now, around 7/10 or 70% but reading the text, no, nothing you'd gladly pay 50+ quid for without adequate bug fix patching at least. C6T.

Classsix T Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Proves the writing quality of Last of Us doesn't it? The fact Ellie likes silly jokes but has gone through so much she'll protect Joel whatever. Brilliant game. Sadly lacking in Days Gone, apparently. An opportunity missed IMHO. C6T.

Big James Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 After reading the reviews of both days gone and MK 11 I’ve decided to pass on both. Sad because both have been on my radar ever since they was announced. But instead I decided to treat myself to donkey Kong tropical freeze which in my opinion has that right balance of nostalgia and challenge to make a very good game.

RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted April 28, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 28, 2019 I've been playing Outcast: Second Contact on XBox. I never finished the original (hardly got started, in fact) due to the involved nature of following the story elements that are being told, and getting too many interruptions in my gaming life from normal reality. It's basically the same game as it was in 1999, with a little bit of clean up to get it to work better on modern CPUs and at the modern higher resolutions. There's a glitch or two, but nothing serious (so far). It's apparent that it's older code in the physics engine, but it aquits itself pretty well, considering. However, it is very wordy and not high on action, so not a game if you've got twitchy fingers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold big jim Posted April 28, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 28, 2019 Dom showed me GTA-V on the Xbox last night, now the last time I played one of the series was on PS2 (vice city) and I’ve got to admit I was blown away by just how big and involved the game is now, we took a blimp out and flew over the map and it’s immense, only managed to see less than an eighth of it I recon Dom’s character owns a nightclub and a side mission is to promote it, he ended up hiring in 2 DJs to play the club and when googling them they are real life DJs, when they play the club you can go to the dance floor and strut your stuff to their tunes, I ended up watching and listening to them for about 10 minutes! downloaded a free pinball game to the Xbox (FX pinball) and paid for a few DLC tables for it (marvel and family guy/American dad) cracking little game 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classsix T Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 Metro Exodus is proving to be an enjoyable first person tear-up. Stealthy or Rambo like combat options with engaging storyline. Impressive graphics. I never really took to Bioshock, but this one I'm liking as much as I did MoH Frontline. C6T. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold big jim Posted April 28, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 28, 2019 i do like a good pinball game, got that one and the one on the switch, ideally id like a real table in the man cave (indiana jones is still a great one) but price and space put pay to that idea so the console versions are good enough snooker and pool game next Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
