    I love GOW but playing a game for the third time...

    Ewww.
    NG+ feels somewhat like a new game... and after knowing the full story and all the reveals, its actually really intriguing playing a second time because you pick up on the clues so much more. so many things take on new meaning, especially all the stuff The Stranger says in your first encounter

    yeah, i'd never do the 3rd playthrough b2b2b like that. but a year down the line? why not imho

    i cant count how many times i played through Star Fox 64 or Super Mario 64 as a kid... or how many times i had beaten Spiderman 2 on the ps2. some games just have great replayability. god of war feels like one of them since the game's big but not too big (for instance, i cant even imagine playing RDR2 a second time)

    I've played through Outlast and Outlast 2 more than 3 times. There are certain games that have that junkie fix replayability. I can't count how many times I've beaten the individual MGS games especially Sons of Liberty. Probably close to 10 times...

    yeah i dont see the big deal, a game is like a really long movie and people rewatch all the time. though i try to space out playthroughs for certain games like once a year or every other year depending on length. i've probably beaten the dying light campaign and all side quests at least 5 times, though i still havent finished the following . i've beaten LoU at least 6 different times (normal, hard, survivor, grounded x3), beaten WatchDogs 3 times, etc. only game that i really really love that i havent beaten multiple times is Witcher 3 and thats because its a massive game and undertaking

    I played Devil May Cry for the first time, and boy are these fixed camera angles rough. I know the game is old and all, but damn, it just makes me want to play Bayonetta instead.
    did you grow up playing bayonetta before DMC? i tried to play Bayonetta recently and it just feels like a ty DMC clone, but i grew up playing DMC so probably why i feel that way

    My , that game is ing crack. I think I have four playthroughs.


    though i still havent finished the following
    The ? The ending to the base game is such while The Following has a brilliant ending that ties everything together. You are really missing out if you haven't done The Following.


    beaten WatchDogs 3 times

    baseline bum I finally understand your comparison of Yakuza to Streets of Rage.. It really is a super high resolution jap version of it w/ some Shenmue thrown in for good measure..
    Damn the newest patch for Yakuza 0 removes Denuvo and supposedly it dropped the size of the executable from 200MB to 20MB.

    I didn't "grow up" with either, but I played Bayonetta 1 and 2 first. I wouldn't call Bayonetta a clone, since the guy who directed Devil May Cry was behind Bayonetta, too.

    I understand that I am judging an 18-year-old game by today's standards, but the fact that DMC was born from scrapped ideas for Resident Evil 4 shows. When I played Metal Gear Solid recently, it was also a brutal experience. Those fixed camera angles are really ty by today's standards.

    Yeah PS2 action games can be rough. After how much I loved NieR Automata and Nier Gestalt I went and played Drakengard and it would have been a great Dynasty Warriors kind of game if it wasn't for the horrible camera control.

    The crazy thing is that people complained because the Resident Evil 2 Remake didn't have fixed camera angles. Why would anybody want to not be able to see what they are attacking or being attacked by? Nostalgia makes people believe crazy .

    Final Fantasy VII is one of my favorite games ever, and I couldn't care less that the remake (if it ever come out) won't have Active Time Battle. But people get butthurt about it, as if the combat system HAS to be turn-based. What's the point of a remake if it's the exact same thing all over again?

    I know, ive read how the game ends but i'll eventually go back and finish it. and i dont know why watchdogs gets so much hate, just one of those games everyone scoffs but i enjoyed the story. i thought WatchDogs 2 (which ive beaten twice ) has better gameplay buts its story is compared to the previous and Marcus is such a lame character compared to Pierce. just imo

    Only reason ever to own an XBox One was to play Red Dead Redemption 1 with a half decent framerate.

    PC is def the way to go with apex. I imagine once Cross platform starts..PC users will demolish console players.

    Its just much easier to aim and shot in PC. Thats a crazy advantage.
    They tried this out before back in the days of the PS3. Slightly above average, non-compe ive FPS players on PC completely wiped the floor with some of the best console players in the world. It's really not even about skill when a joystick is so limiting.

    100% agreed on fixed camera angles. its why i was very surprised to see people complaining about how the new god of war changed the formula too much

    I still thoroughly enjoy playing Halo 5 multiplayer even if the campaign is trash tbh. But yeah don't really use it for anything else

    Blech at the rumor that Sony might be close to buying Take Two. That would suck so much if GTA and RDR become PoorStation exclusives.

    i completed the game and beat sigrun on give me a challenge. sigrun was very tough, but all the other vaklyrie fights to a really good job of preparing you. i had the most trouble with one on alfheim iirc, as she had the very fast fly-stomp attack, while the other ones would shout VALHALLA or something ... that and the muspelheim one because hers had a really weird timing/delay on the stomp, so that if you just mashed roll when she yelled valhalla you'd get hit.

    the main difficulty with sigrun was identifying which aerial attack she was doing and then responding on time. if shes spinning the staff around, you gotta spam arrows or throw the axe at her, otherwise you get hit. if shes doing the blinding one, you have to look the ground or do quick turnaround (down on dpad), etc. obviously always be on the lookout for valhalla stomp.

    do all the dwarf favors and you can get their special armors. Sindri's breastplate thing imo is better than the valk/mist sets because it gives you massive runic/cooldown boosts and its ability can give you invulnerability during runic animations. i used valkyrie waist guard also for runic boost and perk, and then mist gauntlet just for stats and some slight passive regen. i maxed all those out. and even though its not a very high level, i'm using the amulet that slows time after a perfect dodge. really helped against sigrun because almost every valhalla dodge is perfect as your window is so narrow anyway

    i started NG+ on give me god of war. the combat really is more challenging, and despite having runics and armor its still a grind on early levels ... though familiarity with the game helps a lot. after learning the right approaches the first time, i'm having a much easier time against bosses this time, but strugglin way more against the random draugers
    I finally beat that (didn't play for a few days). It was to the point that it wasn't even fun tbh. I have all of her moves memorized, my reflexes just suck I guess. Long gone are the days of me running through Mike Tyson's Punchout without taking a punch.

    OMG Microsoft might as well just hang it up if true. Rockstar games would fit right in with the lineup of killer single player exclusives on Sony tbh.

    God I'd hate it. GTA V was such an amazing experience on PC playing at 60 fps with a Xeon and a GTX 970. I'd love to see RDR2 at 60 fps too.
