DisturbedSwan Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Jesus christ that list is bad, BotW at Number 1, OoT at 34? Halo 2 above TLOU? Just laughable shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Not a big Halo fan but I'd probably put it above TLOU as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one-armed dwarf Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Revolution in online competitive gaming versus a Children of Men ripoff with bad gameplay. Yup (man I feel so mean, dumping on all of Blakey's halo opinions today. But it has to be done!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCH Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 23 minutes ago, one-armed dwarf said: a Children of Men ripoff with bad gameplay. I haven't played it. But I looked into TLOU and didn't really like what I saw. One of my cousins, in contrast, was obsessed with Halo. Couldn't sing it's praises enough. Unfortunately a very headache inducing game for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 It just has some of the worst gameplay sections I've seen in a highly regarded game for that era. Credit where it's due, the sequel was a huge uplift in quality gameplay wise. Don't care about the story in either of them though, cause it's pretty derivative (if technically impressive, how they manage to pull it all together. But that really isn't enough imo to deserve it the classic status it's been given) Halo 2 is the kind of game you can trace a huge legacy from, even if you don't like it that much (which I don't). Xbox 360's era was built on top of Halo 2. Hell Halo 2 was the most played game on the 360 platform until its sequel came out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I can see why if given both games today you’d think tlou was the better game, however Halo 2 was far and away the greater accomplishment. But then again I think all lists are garbage and used only to provoke and generate traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCH Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Memory, eh?🤷♂️ Just logged into my ShopTo account. For the first time since ..Returnal came out?

DANGERMAN Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 there are comfortably 100 better games than any of the Halo games, and ODST is the best of those, so it's all moot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maf Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Dumb question but my brain is farting. Do you think any of these options indicates I can share a save file across Xbox and PC? I was going to try The Ascent on PC to see if I like it more, but don't want to start again from the beginning. The current list of features is here, but nothing stands out as 'share your save file' It does have my achievements, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I dunno, but like I said before the store is buggy and will probably corrupt tons of storage anyway. So I wouldn't count on anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 Ahh, I just spotted it. The 'Play Anywhere' tag means you can play it on any platform, no matter where you purchase. Plus your saves go back and forth. Nice. Trust me to get stuck for 20 minutes, give up, post the question, then find the answer smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryokutai Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I bring you a fun little quiz. There are currently certain Castlevania items on sale in time with its anniversary. One item is a fancy Limited Run Special Edition of Castlevania Requiem (SotN & Rondo) with a bunch of nice little extras like a poster, soundtrack, a chain pin, a steelbook and a replica of Alucard's sword and shield. The other item is an NFT JPEG. Now one of those is being sold for 175 bucks, the other one is part of an auction and currently sitting at 3500 USD. Can you guess which is which???

Which is odd because it goes nowhere special with its story, it´s a very basic Vampire Killer vs. Dracula setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2022-01-14-video-game-voice-actor-troy-baker-is-now-promoting-nfts Troy Baker is working with a company that does "Voice NFT's" or he's making them. One or the other. Hope this comes up on the next Play, Watch, Listen podcast haha. Don't know what Alanah or especially Mike think about NFT's but this could be fun The more I listen to Troy the more I can't tell if he's smart but so pretentious that he sounds dumb or is actually dumb but his talent and looks let him get away with it EDIT: Yes, I found this Next podcast should be gooooooood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 It's so disheartening seeing those who seem like decent nerdy guys fall for this shit. You don't have to look far down the road to see why they're a problem and not something most people want. If it's just for rich weirdos, fine, they've been investigating in dumb shit since forever but these necessarily require an ecosystem and a bunch of people getting the short end of the stick. I hate that it won't go away. It reminds me of F2P games that are run on 'whales' where the vast majority in an ecosystem don't pay but it just takes a tiny percentage of big spenders to keep it going. Gaming NFTs might be like that in that barely anyone cares but enough will to make it something worth pandering to. Except this has environmental consequences on top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
