    Discussion What's your favourite video game you've been playing?

    Far Cry 4 brought in the climbing gear and a much more vertical map, which was one of the most appealing things about it. Some still nitpicked that it's world map was vaguely based on the same basic layout as Far Cry 3, even though the vertical and different land features and structures made it...

    Discussion What's your favourite video game you've been playing?

    I usually start out on the default difficulty, then do the harder modes. So I guess I get on average 3 playthroughs with most games. I did this even with the Far Cry games. The only real annoyance was the grind to hunt for pelts to make more holsters and gear bags. In Far Cry 4 I went to using a...

    Thank you, wow, that's a good amount of content. Does all that have enough variety though, or can it start feeling repetitious?

    What about Secrets of the Spires, is it story DLC?

    Well it looks like you have pretty good spec to run it on. Is Secrets of the Spires story content DLC, I've never heard of it? Alex Battaglia of Digital Foundry had nothing but praise for that game. He was not just impressed with it's graphics and performance either. He made a point of debunking...

    Discussion What's your favourite video game you've been playing?

    Thanks to some replies to a question thread I made on Steam Forums asking if there's an easier way to quick switch weapons in The Last of Us 2, I discovered I had somehow not seen that you can simply choose what weapon to put in slots 1-4, by holding down the 1, 2, 3, or 4 key, then scrolling...

    Question What is wrong with me?

    Go to an Ophthalmologist and get an eye exam done. They have equipment, testing methods and training beyond what Optometrists do. I was diagnosed recently with Strabismus, a type of double vision caused by improper eye alignment when focusing. One eye will pull in a bit when focusing, so it's...

    Yeah if you don't mind the grind of upgrading gear in Origins, it has some great gameplay in it. There's some epic battles, and I really still prefer how you could use the shield more effectively than in Odyssey or Valhalla.

    I hope AC Shadows is better than AC Mirage. I'm almost to the end of Mirage, and I can't say it feels like a memorable game.

    Discussion What's your favourite video game you've been playing?

    I'm nearly to the end of my first play through of The Last of Us Part II Remastered. It's a very good game with lots of decent stealth sections, and also some scary monster segments that are more overt combat in between running for your life. The game runs and looks quite good, aside from Abby...

    Discussion What's your favourite video game you've been playing?

    Well, Spider-man 2 has been running MUCH better with the new settings and a microcode update for my MB BIOS I missed when it released a couple months ago. I'm very near the end of the game now. The boss fights get more intense as you go. It's a pretty good game, it just needed more testing and...

    Having a love/hate relationship with Marvel's Spider-man 2. Great gameplay, runs good, then suddenly not so good. Hopefully now that I have RT turned off I won't get horrible artifacts and really bad frame rate anymore.

    Question Looking for suggestions on a vertical gaming mouse?

    I ended up buying the Logitech MX Vertical at Best Buy. It was on sale plus there was 20% off on top of that, which is a recycle and save offer. I don't know what to think about it so far. In the store I first saw it that had it on display (Office Depot), it fit well in my hand. I started...

    Question Looking for suggestions on a vertical gaming mouse?

    As the title states, I'm looking specifically for a vertical mouse. I'm trying to alleviate forearm strain that builds up when gaming for long hrs. It's caused by using your hand in a horizontal position for prolonged periods, which twists the 2 bones in your forearm, causing pressure on the...

    Question Looking for suggestions on a vertical gaming mouse?

    I have semi large hands, specifically 8" from bottom of it to the tip of my middle finger. I've looked at a ton of options, but weight, ease of use, rechargeability, and reliability are important, as is price. I'm an Amazon Prime member so I prefer something at least shipped by Amazon with their...
