My brother and I enjoy playing video games together. We play most of our games on PC. Currently playing a decent amount of Counter Strike and two RPG's. Grounded and Dying Light: The Beast. Highly recommend both of them if you're looking for a game to play with a buddy. (Picture = Dying Light: The Beast)1759091293889.png

Ordered the new Final Fantasy Tactics revamp/remaster/whatever. Never did play it. I didn't like rpgs when I was a kid, but I did like chess. Look forward to playing when I get home next week.

Hades 2 looks cool, loved the first one.

I don't think I'll ever not come back to Bloodborne.
Just bit the bullet for Christmas and got a used PS4 just to play Bloodborne, so far I am very impressed, both by Bloodborne but also of the PS (my last console was the SNES and I was in high school!).
I see myself forking out for PS6, whenever it comes - as read on reddit "You can pay $6-700 and get performance that'd cost $3000 on PC, and also get better performance than 85% of PCs out there", I think I'm being convinced!

Not much in video gaming any more. Once in a blue moon I will fire up Mame on my computer and have a few minutes with the games I grown up with. Commando, Ghosts 'n' Goblins, P-47, a bit of Pac Man and that's that.

Good choice. Wait until you try a PS5.

First I need to get a new TV, our TV is more than 10 years old, as is my PC monitor. My techie brother tells me that the difference if I change TV and monitor will be night and day!

Edit: I'm also pining for a remake/remaster of Bloodborne as a PS6 exclusive, I think it'd really boost sales. Frankly there's something odd going on with the Bloodborne IP, I haven't spent any time looking into it but have seen snippets here and there saying that the IP is in some legal limbo and can't be remade/re-released/released for PC/other platform. It feels to me like there's a lot of money left on the table because anyone not owning a PS4+ who also likes Soulsbornes would jump on it in an instant if it did.

Kinda like Blizzard stupidly saying for years "you think you do, but you don't" before launching WoW Classic and making a boatload of money on it...

But one can tell that Miyazaki went all out on it, such a stellar game!

Would also do questionable stuff to see a new Sekiro too...

I've been playing a lot of Robocop Rogue City on PC lately. I got it for less than $5 on a Steam sale. It's got a good long storyline and it's a single player campaign type game which isn't that common anymore. Everything seems to have gone multi player with paid season passes, server subscriptions and in-game stores wanting real money.
