Man I do miss lightgun games. Die Hard Trilogy and Confidential Mission were my favourites at home but Time Crisis, and the 2nd game with co-op, was the perfect arcade game.

Fable Anniversary

I haven’t played much this past week but did finish up the main story and now I’m almost done with the extended storyline in the Northern Wastes area. Also found the Darkwood Bordello quest and did a couple more demon doors/silver keys.

I think one more session and I’m done so looking forward to starting Fable 2 straight after.

edit: completed it this evening :)

That’s a fair point. I feel that PC gaming was in a peak of consumerism with ridiculous prices and never ending “upgrades” so it’ll be interesting to see if anything changes. I hope it does and some of that knowledge/skill and enthusiasm for optimisation comes back.

I still have Skate 3 installed on my Xbox for those times when I just want to chill for an hour. It makes me a little sad when I see what its become nowadays…

from September '27 to August '27… big whoop…

To be fair I really enjoyed the first movie, but I still won’t care unless it’s a couple months until release.

This has been my default for a couple years now. Qwant search is ok at best but I mainly use it because I wanted an EU alternative with some privacy. As for Vivaldi I think its great, and especially with an OISD list with the built in blocker.

It also happens if I’m part way through writing a comment, switch tabs, and when I switch back over what I typed out is lost and the “cross server content” page is there. It’s annoying :(

Those “online pass” days were grim. Xbox Live gold sub and I need an online pass to play BF3!

I agree that streaming is fine but it’s probably a stigma from the “straight to DVD” days.

I’d say the easiest/quickest way to start is on a console with a headset and using your phone to manage the stream. Just sit down, launch a game and start chatting to yourself. If you have a console that is?

PC isn’t exactly difficult but you’ll need to set up and use something like OBS.

I think making and keeping it a hobby you enjoy is the key to success. Don’t burden yourself with thinking you have to be popular and just play what you want and when you want.

Fable Anniversary

I think I’m in the end game now. I was going to go through and find all the collectables first (silver keys, dolls, demon doors etc) but I think I’ll just finish the story and move on to Fable II.

Forza Motorsport 4

Picked it up a couple days ago and played a few hours already. It’s just as fun as I remember but a shame the 360 doesn’t have online functions anymore for the “rivals” stuff. It still looks really good and makes you realise why the console lasted for so long.

I appreciate being able to use Photon here :)

RVGL

It’s an OpenGL port of Re-Volt and a lot of fun!

Bridge of Spirits is great so looking forward to this. I wasn’t expecting a sequel but it’s a shame it’s probably a year away :/

Masters of Albion comes out this year, and quite soon, on 22nd April, and seeks to give us a dose of Dungeon Keeper, Black & White and Fable all in one.

Honestly it sounds and looks great but no way am I buying an early access Molyneux game!

No thanks but I would watch a Baja 1000 docudrama like from the end scene.

Mars Tactics is probably top now that Cairn was released last week. Actually honestly I’m most excited for the Coaches DLC for ETS2 :D

Anaconda (2025)

I don’t know why but tried to watch it yesterday while eating lunch and its not good. I did leave it on to finish so maybe it’s not bad but more like a 4/10 rating.
