working through Resident Evil HD and Revelations.
What did you think of Resi HD? I really enjoyed it, great old school stuff - and surprising how small the game is! Padded out by lots of back tracking. I guess all those long door loading screens must have made it seem longer than I remember it.

Totally agree on the use of the second character Retro, using the torch etc to find and highlight items. I like that the main character had to rely on the torch from the other character etc. Was a nice dynamic. And for £20, yes, its a shit load of content! Especially with those Raid maps.

I am fucking loving Bloodborne. I'm only in Old Yarnham (an optional area) but its bloody amazing. I have the repeater pistol and some really cool trick RH weapons. Around level 32-33 now and able to hold my own against pretty much anything on these early levels. But still hard as being aggrod by lots of enemies grouping up on me is still a challenge despite having levelled up and have most of my weapons buffed at around +3. Long, long way to go yet. This game is massive and once I've only just opened access to the Chalice Dungeons! Only a From Software game would make it so obtuse to access this content. 10+ hours in and needing several items to enable dungeon creation - and it isn't spelt out at all how to do it!

EDIT - yeah and after 10+ hours not even a sniff of a trophy!
FREAK!

My Bloodborne got sent back to Amazon Trade In yesterday.

So...THERE!!!! :arse:

I'm in with the in crowd ...

I'm working from home today and it's too bloody sunny to play Bloodborne ... *cough* at lunchtime that is. I should never complain about it being sunny. That would definitely make me a FREAK!

FUCK THE FUCKING SUN!

Coming through my curtains at EXACTLY the wrong time when I'm playing Drive Club for example.

Plus...the Pavlovian reaction of all the cunts who immediately:

1. Wear shorts
2. Have a stinky barbecue
3. Insist on listening to their cunty music alfresco

I fucking hate Summer.

Praise the Sun! (is quote from Dark Souls).

I hear you - sun does tend to interfere with a good gaming session. And yes, there is absolutely no need for anyone to play music alfresco - especially if it's coming from some crappy smart phone and the pleb thinks we all want to hear it! I've got Sonos at home thanks and music sounds considerably better through than your phone that sounds like a angry wasp trapped in a wet fart.

Resi HD is great Indie but you're right there is a hell of a lot of back tracking in there. I'm glad they made some modern concessions though and stuck in modern controls. I tried going old school but it was just horrible with the tank controls.

Haven't gone too deep into Revelations (still on episode 1) but seems decent so far. Hope the next Resi proper takes a bit of inspiration and does it right this time. That or could they remake the second game in the same vein as HD please.

Well I've been playung Ride on the Xbox One. It's a Milestone developed game so I went in knowing it would be janky.

And it is. Poor framerate and the worst load times I have ever seen. Trackside detail is last gen at best. But anyone who has ever owned a bike will appreciate just how fucking good the bike models are. They are up there with the Forza 4's autovista models imo. Really nice, and I guess trackside detail was sacrificed in order to use such detailed models while racing.

Having treat fun with it despite the glaring problems that typically come with a Milestone game.

Just finished Metro 2033 and loved it. Now on to Metro Last Light...these are some seriously Next-Gen looking babies; silky smooth 60fps and textures and lighting to die for.

Picked em up for £25.00 @ Tesco a while back - suspect they're even cheaper now. Recommended.

Not heard much about these - might check them out.

Bloodborne is a bleak game to be playing ALL of the time.

To be honest - if you go for Metro, that ain't really a lol experience, either.

Metro Last Light is a lot more varied than 2033, and is a lot more colourful.

Still gonna give a go at some time though I think!

Really must start paying attention to whats due out over the next few months - I haven't really been paying attention of late. Batman looks good - but never been as good as Arkham Asylum; since they fucked it up and went all open world.

Got Alien Isolation to play at some point as well.

Damn I play some dark and depressing games. Perhaps I should cheer myself up and dust off the Wii U.

I'll grant you, that does look (visually) amazing! When is it out?

That said, you you won't see a better video on YouTube today (or even this year) that this music video to go with the film short Kung Fury. It's quite simply amazing.
