Was softmodding Wii and WiiU, so played some of my NGC games. (mainly Viewtiful Joe)

Red Matter 2 PCVR, the game is out of this world.

6hrs into it and still going strong....

Or you can bypass PCVR, and play Oculus Native games without a PC..

GFX look better on PCVR titles obvioulsy over it's native counterpart..

I used it to play only stationary games, like Elite Dangerous. Have not tried it in a while. Thanks for reminder.

Just started Season 1 of The Walking Dead by Telltale Games - really impressed. Excellent writing and story telling

Game is not hard and really just a multiple choice sort of game with a few interactions (like Heavy Rain) but really hooked.

Did they already patch it so you don't need a Facebook account anymore? That was kind of a blocker for me to get one, I know it was going to happen that this limitation would be resolved but I don't remember reading it was rolled out.

Yes it's fixed. Shortly after the oculus to Meta name change

Nice. Now I know what I want for Christmas

ransom1122 · 16 September 2022, 10:36

Nice..
I finished Red Matter 2, now its time to backtrack and play Red Matter 1

Anubis · 16 September 2022, 19:42

Just completed Rick Dangerous on ZX Spectrum. To my surprise it really runs well and there is only couple of places where you can't see enemy due to few colors on the screen, but still plays well.

About 1/3 done with Dayinglight (according to game itself)

Just saw today that xBox Game Pass added couple of new games, including AC Odyssey, and also added how long to beat, with estimates on time required to complete the games.

TCD · 17 September 2022, 00:35

Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a great game. I'd say it's at least 50 hours even if you rush the main story. I easily spent over 100 hours on it.

Nobby_UK · 18 September 2022, 18:36

FallOut 4 was giving me the Infinite Loading Screen last night.

Tried the PCB (Purge Cell Buffer) command
and it made empty (looked like sky) places

Did a Steam Verify Files = No problems found

But on restart it did a Hardware Auto Detect
and opened in a stretched screen, but it worked

Amended the Prefs file --- now OK.

gimbal · 19 September 2022, 17:15

Still "playing" Gothic 2 although the reality is more that the game plays me... pff, that game really is work. Even a spring breeze kills you. I don't think I can endure that kind of punishment to the end, I'll be glad if I finish chapter 1.

I think I made it to chapter 3 or 4 back in the day when I still had the patience of a saint.

TCD · 19 September 2022, 20:21

Yep, it's really hard. Just clearing out the mine valley in chapter 3 after I cheesed Night of the Raven for some XP to get enough to wield the blessed ore sword as a paladin. Now it's farming orcs one by one which requires like 3 attempts for each one of them

Dark Souls is hard? Pah!

Anubis · 20 September 2022, 18:45

* Dying Light - ~2/3 of the game done (doing side quest and slowly progressing toward the end)
Completed Rex on ZX Spectrum, with some poke help.

gimbal · 21 September 2022, 11:11

Yay, running around old town and falling to your death if you press a button a millisecond too late

The last time I played the game there was an event ongoing where your punches and kicks were ludicrously strong, then the streets of old town all of a sudden are a playground. Too bad they didn't keep it that way.

Just started replaying Monkey Island series in anticipation to play the new Return to Monkey Island (considering all those great reviews so far)
