I could never get into Borderlands but the Epic store freebies are insane. I've got 100 games in my library, and that's only claiming what looks interesting, and usually I only hear about them from other sites, when they're giving away big/well known titles*. Think I've only bought 4 games off the Epic store
*good/big titles like... Batman Arkham collection, Bioshock collection, GTA V, Alien Isolation, Control, Ghostbusters, Rage 2, Just Cause 4, Wolfenstein New Order to name a few |

The Quarry (PS5) - 3/10
I got it because I really enjoyed the Until Dawn game (2015, PS4) from the same developer. Well, the Quarry, although the graphics and motion/face capture is really advanced, isn't enjoyable at all. It just isn't a game and it also is not even a good interactive film*. You just sit back 95% of the time and watch what's going on. You still can affect the outcome of what's going to happen, but that's about it and I don't even feel motivated to try again with different choices. Maybe I'm getting too old and people these days like this kind of diluted undemanding experience, where they just sit back and move the left stick accordingly and smash the X button when prompted to.
In the Until Dawn game, you really got to play the game. You walked around a lot, finding all sorts of stuff, doing mini games, challenging quick time events, even some puzzles. I played it several times just to achieve all the goals (save/kill everyone, find every item, figure out stuff...). I won't play the Quarry ever again.
*The story of the Quarry is pretty much 80's summer camp teen horror film which would be alright, however many of the characters and dialogues were just bad. There were parts of the game that I would rather skip. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

I got Far Cry 4 on some deal the other week, humble bundle or something like that. It was free.
It's a bloody good if depressing game. It seems there's no happy clappy fluffy bunny ending, and what I do doesn't seem to materially affect the outcome. I can help individuals and so on, but with hostage rescue missions for example, the hostages start getting executed as soon as I'm seen, so I feel like not interfering might have been better? I like the setting, I like the country of Kyrat. I like attacking outposts and sabotaging the radio towers. I like the miniature helicopters and other vehicles and I like the weaponry. I like the fact that Ajay Ghale pronounces his name like A-J Gale because he grew up in the US. All the Kyrati's pronounce it like ahh jay ghalay. Lovely details. I just think it's going to end up very depressing with some sort of dictatorship at the end. Again I think the whole game is predicated on the fact that interference just makes things worse.
It does run well though, I've not yet seen it chug or glitch in any way, and the landscape and settings are nothing short of spectacular. It's extremely well crafted and loads of fun, I just don't want to progress the story because both of your 'allies' are nearly as d*ckish as the actual dictator of the little country. The guy on the propaganda radio is annoying, the radio stations repeat the same minute of chat every time and the NPC's do like to get eaten by the local wildlife.
it's overall good, but being able to white knight the game would probably make it better for me - But then again I'm the guy who plays through Deus Ex without killing anyone except the bosses and tries to not do excessive violence in GTA, so what do I know? ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F

GhostWire: Tokyo (PS5) - 7/10 (so far)
It's 50% off in the PS store, otherwise I wouldn't buy it, not for the full price. I've got a plenty of games to play, at the moment, and I would get to this one in a year or two.
Anyway, from the very first hour of playing, this feels very much like a Far Cry game, they even use the same animations and game mechanics, which isn't a bad thing on its own. The visuals are stunning, although I opted for the performance mode (60fps, 1440p, with some degree of AMD's image sharpening tech) instead of the quality mode (30fps, 1800p, ray tracing). The game looks amazing in the quality mode, however the frame pacing is so poor, that I just can't play it like that. On the performance mode it runs realitvely smooth, the game still looks nice and after awhile I don't even notice missing graphics features, such as ray tracing.
The story so far is good (fresh), the gameplay feels like a mix of Far Cry Primal and Far Cry 3 or 4 and the game world looks very nice indeed. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Just finished Cyberpunk 2077. Obviously the game gets a bad rep for bugs and sadly there are still plenty in there. Didn't come across anything game breaking though, more annoyances.
Not much of a spoiler to say it's a game with multiple endings but I'd have to say they put a surprising amount of care into them. I'd actually put it up there with GTA V (For context I found RDR2 too much of a drag and Witcher 3 plain annoying with the quest overload.) ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Resident Evil: Director's cut (PSX on PS5): 9/10
I just finished it, haven't played the Director's cut before. It's a nice blast from the past, surprisingly playable, full of nice environmental puzzles. Some of the enemies are plain tiresome and you can't skip dialogues, so if you die and reload your save you have to go through the dialogues again. I was familiar with the original version. The Director's cut has a few changes to the puzzles, as far as I can tell.
It's in the PS+. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Control, with all the DLCs - Alan Wake meets X-Files Quite a fun game and if you can pick it up in a sale so much the better. ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |
