Whenever I get a free minute to relax, I'll plow through a quest or two in this lesser-known little gem (flexing the One's backwards compatibility with yet another run):



That'll probably continue to be the case until Assassin's Creed: Origins gets released later in the month.

I'll add you, but I'm not sure you want to run Duo's with me as I am trash at the game.

I'm still pretty obsessively playing Everybody's Golf. I play for probably an hour a day. From someone who has zero interest in golf this is a great game.

Don't let it bog you down.

FWIW...there is a huge update for console in about a month where they will introduce for the first time a open world style of play. You can look around for game play from PC users Plains of Eldron I think....

Re: What Are You Playing? (October 2017)

I've been trying to take advantage of my new PS4 Pro a little before the Xbox One X launches, so I replayed Ratchet and Clank (my fifth playthrough!) and, for whatever reason, Knack. Dammit, I still like Knack, although many of the visuals really, really haven't aged well. I figured I'd play through the game again to get ready for the sequel.

Just jump straight into the second one. It's great, especially if you have younger children that are not good at games because their character keeps teleporting back to you if they die or can't get past a platforming section.

I won't be able to immediately; by the time I finish the first Knack, I'll head out of town, and then Super Mario Odyssey will be waiting for me when I get back. I thought Knack 2 might be fun to play with my wife, although I'm not really sure if that's her kind of game.

Knack 1 and 2 are both great for what they are. But the 2nd one is a sizable improvement. Very family friendly games.

Finished



Put in 18 1/2 hours. One of the funniest games I've played. So many memorable moments.

The bosses are a cakewalk once you learn their repeating strategies. It's the levels leading up to them are a bitch to get through.

what is the gameplay like? really RPG-ish, can you just move the characters and shoot stuff (or whatever they do)? i think i might need a change from all these FPSs i play...

It’s a lot like the Mario RPGs Rhythm based Battle system. Do you like the tv show? If yes then you’ll like this game as well.

Cuphead - Kind of disappointing from a gameplay perspective with unreliable collision detection, bland platforming and repetitive boss battles. Beautiful to look at, but it mostly just reminded me of how much I miss old school Treasure titles.

Mario Odyssey - Pre-ordered and ready to go.

You are a brave soul. Between the slowdown and the double playthrough that was one of the best / worst experiences I've ever had gaming.

Last Day On Earth on the iPad ... anybody else playing/played this? Frustratingly difficult, but I’m enjoying it so far. Not sure how long I will play for as you have to take long pauses as your character moves from area to area (12 to 45 minutes currently).
