They just released the achievement list for Overwatch and half of the achievements sound impossible.

Overwatch Achievements

 

I've actually never played a Resident Evil game either

MGS is probably my all time favorite series though

 

I really, really need to go back to the series eventually/soon. I adored the first three games, could never get into Apollo Justice and then never went back.

 

Playing Civ V for the first time (actually my first ever Civ) and having a good time with it. Sometimes it leaves me with a feeling of not really knowing what to do next though. Like right now I'm just churning out combat units because I've built everything else possible and I'm not at war with anyone.

The game would really benefit from a properly fleshed out tutorial that talks you through how to win and what the mid to late game mechanics actually do.

 

Yeah this does help a bit, the movement is still a bit too slow for my tastes though. Weirdly I have found myself wanting to play some more though, so I think I'll give the game another shot later on today.

 

everybody's gone to the rapture is one of my favourite games this gen. i was totally and utterly engrossed in it. i liked the slow movement oddly enough. but it's really not a game i would recommend to people.

 

Homefront is getting torn apart in reviews :(

 

I agree with this. There were several moments were I would just stop and think "holy shit..." truly wonderful game that isn't for everyone.

 

Was expecting nothing less but damn it's a shame. The first Homefront was by no means a brilliant game, but it's story was actually kind of interesting and had lots of potential.

 

Yeah, I liked the setting a lot and had a decent time with first. Was hoping in the hands of Crytek UK now Dambusters they'd deliver a great experience. But...yeah, really sad to hear it's just mediocre.

May grab it for $30 or something on sale, or just ask for it for birthday haha.

 

Also, not sure if mentioned, but Black Ops is available on BC.

Digital was on sale for $10, not sure if still on sale. Excited to go back and complete the campaign on Veteran.

 

Its on sale for the week. The sales on XBL this week are really impressive. Unravel is $10. Life is Strange is $10 for the entire season. Square Enix is have a publisher sale.

 

Damn, Unravel is 100% worth that price. Got it at full price and thought it was worth it...

Need to check out the sales when I get a chance.

 

This is also the studio that developed Haze, one of the worst shooters last gen.

 

This is also very very true...

 

But also the studio that made Timesplitters, the best FPS series of all time.

 

True, but didn't most of the core staff that worked on Timesplitters leave in 2008 when they first went bankrupt?

 

I had hope for the game for sure, but it definitely seemed like a good candidate for disappointment. Hopefully, it's still a good campaign for one playthrough and move on.

 

david doak did. steve ellis left after the transition to crytek. most programmers including the lead are still there. homecoming 2 was torpedoed by both thq and crytek going bust, or well close to bust as can be.

 

You are a wealth of random knowledge good sir!

 

Only ever played TS: Future Perfect on the PS2, but man that game was so much fun. Played endless hours with my brother just playing the Virus (I think that's what it was called) mode.

 

Batman: Return to Arkham officially releases July 29th! So pumped!

Batman: Return to Arkham Officially Revealed, Coming This July

 

I was looking at going to EA Play in London but it looks like its only on a Sunday after 8pm, so fuck that.

 

Ew. Why on earth would they do that?
