I didn't hear that no.. Oh dear. This is not great news for me personally. What a dilemma indeed, Do I succeed in my university studies or just play a game that is legendary.. Gotta do the smart thing. Go with my studies I think. :)
On the plus side, once my studies are completed, the game will be half price :)

It'll wait, just think how many great games are going to be available when Ps4 prices come down to more affordable levels and the the 2nd hand games market has had time to fill up. 👍

I like Metal Gear and God of War and recently Last of Us. Otherwise it's been more or less Gran Turismo for 15 years. I tried Red Dead Redemption but the time it takes to ride a horse between cities is stupid. Then I'd spend two minutes on a challenge and ride again for 15 minutes. Then play poker or dice for two hours. For no reason and no challenge.

Big Metal Gear fan, 3 is my favorite but I'm looking forward to playing 5. I kind of agree with you on red dead, its a great game if you've got the time but there is a lot of blandness in between, best played with a friend and a few beers.

I I'm hate to admit it but I never played 7... But my squall was only able to killed by very strong physical attacks he was either immune or healed by all magic.


With the ESG you can make very powerful toons. Very quickly. I had a thief in my team with before Luca.

Grab 7 on Steam, well worth the $10 (obviously dated but mods do exist to take the edge off). Ive nearly finished 8, got well confused with the junctioning, thought it was a bit overly complicated and the leveling system was a bit dumb. Enjoying it but it didn't feel as deep as 7 (or maybe i'm just older and more jaded :lol:)
 
Since we are talking about all these games, not really a fan of most of the ones brought up here, more a fan of modded minecraft, some simulators, and most racing games. I can't wait for Need For Speed 2015 to finally release on PC (spring 2016) :(

Forgot to post this.

Drool away @shaunm80
@coryclifford have you tried the fallout series?

Is that a game or a film? Wow.. Now that is what I call great graphics. I hope it is as seamless when it is released. Saying that. If Drive Club can deliver graphics like they do on the PS4, I have full confidence in Square Enix to do the same. They always made the most of whatever processing power they were using at any given time.

Need for speed 2015 looks okay. I use to enjoy NfS games on the PS2 but they lost their way a little with Pro Street and Rivals. I would maybe buy it from a second hand shop but to pay £50+ for a game, it will have to be one I really want, and will play for many years to come.
 
@shaunm80, I have played most of the NFS games, and Shift is when I "shifted" to Gran Turismo. I also own a few of the newer games but this one is the closest I believe they will get to my favorite pair from the series. (Most Wanted/Carbon) Pro Street was a flop because it followed the string of great games, I thought Pro Street was a step down, but still a great game.

From what I've seen NFS looks beautiful but the gameplay and AI is identical to all previous NFS games, dumb and rubber bandy
 
Otaliema
Maybe :P I have 3/7 celestial weapons, and 2 captured monsters way from being able to farm AP. 👍 The game is on auto play for everything except the big optional end game stuff. Three charictors hitting for 10k+ two more capping cause they don't have break damage limit or they would be hitting stuff for 15k+ sounds like a lot till you consiider the monsters I'm gearing up for have 1.1 to 2.1 million hp and hit for 99999 :boggled:

Thank you for the review. It seems my tune wasn't quite your cup of tea. It does have a way in which it likes to be driven as you say. Having tested these cars now, do you think that you would have found a tune that you would have submitted yourself if you carried on tuning?

You know how much I dislike a car that won't let me push :lol:

No I don't think I would have submitted, I think the car needed too much compromise to make it function properly, there is something funky programmed into the car and it just won't balance. Needs a lot of max/min settings to break the physics and make it usable and those kind of cars never feel natural to drive

Thanks for the review. It's obviously not to your taste or style & I agree with you about this particular car needing a different way of tuning.

Thank you for testing, and your reviews are always well done. Some of the new/newer guys can learn a lot from your feedback.
Don't think I spent enough time in mine, got it balanced and left it alone. These young guns are really spoiling the show. But it's great to see.
