Just finished the demon souls remake after playing elden ring. Does Sekiro hold up well as I might give that a go next?

In theory I should be hyped for this but its Bethesda so....

this arrived today, direct from Valve: what are commonly regarded as the finest VR-controllers in the market:

woof!

Shadowrun Trilogy released on console later this month. Never played the originals... highly rated back in the day apparently....anyone had a go of them? Any good?

Looks oddly like a heavily modded Fallout 4, but I'll still buy it nonetheless.

They need to get on with TES 6, too.

as a respite from VR-intensity i'm finding retro-gaming really interesting. Bagged this little combi for cheaps, just arrived:

the soundtrack is so moreish, but never played the game...hope the picture isn't too blocky.

not sure if this interests anyone, but ps1 on a projector screen (about 3x2m image) looks better than expected...FMV is grand, normal-play with blocky character sprites as expected but no biggie. Text is readable. Audio-quality sounds great, going into a pair of 6" active-monitors.

Never played that one, just seen there's a few...is the first one considered the best?

aye, ps1/ps2 consoles are so cheap on ebay... Most games too, tho' i had to stretch the wallet a bit for Dino Crisis.

Big announcements from Square.... never played this one on the PSP.... Looking forwards to the PS4/5 release.

I like anything FFVII related so this is gonna be smart

On the same note, here's the teaser for FVII Remake Part 2: "Rebirth"

the 1997 original is still my all-time number 1...something about it is just magical perfection. also got the 4cd audio soundtrack, such evocative addictive melodies...

not played the Remake.
