I’ve been getting stuck into Wasteland 3, which came out the other day. Seems pretty good so far, although I’ve been reading that a lot of players are experiencing bugs of varying severity.
If you’ve played Wasteland 2 and enjoyed it then definitely pick this up, as it feels like more of the same but a bit smoother and slicker.
It’s also free to play via Microsoft Game Pass for PC, if you have it.
I have no idea what games are popular these days. I think I debuted with Doom and Raptor around 1996. Had FIFA 98 soon after. Cesar 3 is the game l possibly loved most. Two other games I enjoyed a lot are Railroad Tycoon and Airforce Ace; but not sure if I remember the names correctly.
Me too. Have you tried Anno 1800? Its a city builder/campaign from the industrial evolution era. Not Rome obviously, but very nice graphics. Its a pretty tough game and eats the hours.
Was just checking that. The overall ratings seems good, it used to be so bad for years. One surprising stat for me was VVD’s pace, which is 76. It’s vastly underrated, isn’t it? he hardly uses it, but he’s definitely way faster.
FIFA hasn’t been good for a number of years now imo. Ultimate Team has became an absolute cash cow for EA who put hardly any resources into improving servers, other modes and most importantly the gameplay these days. It’s all about churning out an extra 50 promos a season to get people buying up those FIFA points.
Ooooo, Dirt Rally 2.0 on Steam is on sale (-75%. Midweek madness until 18-Sep - in Canada at least), and I won’t have to do all kinds of tweaking to get the Samsung Odyssey (VR) working like I have to in Dirt Rally (and because of that, I have hooked up the VR for ages). Very tempted.
No catch. I had assumed it was last year’s edition but it’s not.
Each week Epic give away 1 or 2 games for free to encourage people to sign up to their store as they are trying to build scale to compete with Steam and GoG, and if you are signed up you are thought to be more likely to buy games from them. Usually these are slightly older titles.
They are owned I think by Ten Cent a chinese owned gaming company. There were concerns a couple of years ago about data security breaches on the site, but i dont think it is seen as an issue now, although some people do still avoid it.
They usually release the new version every November, so likely trying to drum up interest in the game knowing that the new version should be released in 6-8 weeks
