Not counting my own entries, but posting to stay involved.

Have been working on the plat for AC Valhalla, just orlog and fishing left. Started up Uncharted 1 as well and eyeing Full Throttle. Good idea on the list.

Yep @Seananigans is right, that's what I've put in place for March, just further refining the carrot. I always thought Feb was 1 general raffle 1 straight point win, so @Crone has done it right from what was laid out in the OP.

March is here already. My turn to sponsor this month's backlog challenge, which consists of 2 separate $50 raffles. Different winner for each. Raffle #1 Standard - Complete any game and your name is in the draw for a $50 Steam / Xbox / Playstation giftcard Raffle #2 Weighted - Counting...

No, I wouldn't say things are winding down. Compared to other months we have 1 or 2 less people participating is all. It's pretty clear you've got the HLTB category wrapped up, and well done to you on that front. I liked the idea of the point system, but given that most people participating are...

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart complete, puts me at 23+11 = 34 so far. I must have been in a foul mood the first time I tried this a few months back because I dismissed it as solely for kids. This go around, none of that annoyed me and I got to experience solid gameplay with lots of fun guns to...

Horizon Zero Dawn down, on the board with 23. Liked it, didn't love it. Just did base game, maybe return to DLC down the track.

Gift card came through, all good!

I did a run of GTA4 back in 2020 on PC when they had just added in steam achievements with the complete edition rework. Still have the 2 dlc episodes to beat, might leave those for another month.

I've started Horizon Zero Dawn as well this month, just got done with the proving and engaging with the game a lot more than the first time I tried it. I'm impressed with how good a PS4 game looks on the my C1 OLED.

From the FAQ at the bottom Digital Gift Cards What happens if my friend lives in another country? The digital gift card you purchased will automatically be converted into your friend's currency. Hopefully that ends up being the most straight...

Appreciate you trying bud, didn't realize it would turn into such a hassle. Lets wait out the required days and go from there.

Posting backlog and will draw from this list. Going to take more of a console focus since I've only been using the PS5 for AC Valhalla, despite getting other games for the system. PS5 Ghost of Tsushima Directors Cut Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart Marvels...

Agree with rule changes, more inclined for people to tackle longer ones and still be rewarded.

Well we got the next 2 sorted then, you take Feb, I'll do March.

Feels good to get a win, thanks @Regime for hosting this month. In the spirit of keeping it going, I'll pony up and cover Feb. Game on fellas.

Sneaking this one in before cutoff. Says it supports controller, but that's a lie, bearable with a mouse / kb. Can see why this was an indie darling a few years back. Not what I'd normally go for but worth a play through if you're remotely interested in this type of game. Overwhelmingly Positive...

Like others, this had been on the backlog for many years, finally gave some time to it. It's a quick 5 hour romp told after the fact as the gunslinger recalls his story to patrons of the bar. As he's telling it, corrections and ad-libs change the enemy and terrain. It's lighthearted and plays...

Abandoned this back when it came out because those optional strikeforce missions were a pain but were required for the best ending. Add that you only get limited retries and yeah, fuck that noise at higher difficulties. When the goal this time was just to get it done instead of do it perfectly...

Enjoyed the story less but the gameplay more compared to previous Spider-man game. Handling of the villains and shoddy writing induced many eye rolls, but compared to the remaster on PS5 there is an improvement in how it plays. Plan to go back and finish the side stuff.

Doom (2016) The Doom talk in the thread helped get this one done. Thanks fellas, I was missing out.

Gaming took a back seat the last few days, but gonna call Doom 2016, Spiderman Miles Morales and Call of Duty Black Ops 2 campaign as my shot to finish for Jan. To anyone thinking of doing Assassins Creed Valhalla for the back log, don't do it. Not because it's a shit game, I ended up enjoying...

Fun ride, hit different from what I remember. Should have come back to this sooner. I really liked the weapon wheel system and animations. Can hold a maximum of three guns, eg 1911, Uzi, FAL. Say I'm using the Uzi, then the 1911 is shoulder holstered and he's holding the FAL by the handguard in...

It stood out as a game made before developers cared about being offensive or inclusive. Whether that's italian stereotypes, the edgy toilet humour of the Darkling (ai assistant), mob guys quipping how retards like the zoo, the treatment of women, the mentally ill, physically disabled etc. It...

Most of these haven't changed in years but every now and then something new crawls up the list.

This was alright, definitely wouldn't get made today which adds to the enjoyment. Early part was better before enemies got tanked up and you had to remove armour to get headshots. The original never released on PC, stuck in PS3 / X360 limbo otherwise I'd look at giving it a crack too.

Good thread, gonna jump in for round 2. Using Steam and sorting by recent activity was handy in finding out which games have been untouched for years. Also going into account details and purchase history. Going to start with The Darkness II and Max Payne 3, both last played in 2013. I remember...

Christmas 2020 photos were the motivation for me to finally do something at the start of last year. At 33, 178cm (5'10) and 153kg (337lb) changes needed to be made. I signed up for a meal plan service early January and have stuck with it for a full year now. Admitted to myself I didn't know shit...

So it's not just the PC version that is fucked, every platform suffers whether from bugs or performance. I'm still wrapping my head around this nugget - PS5 that can handle Demon Souls and Returnal, but can't handle GTA III reskin. What an absolute joke these devs are.

Be careful what you wish for

Remember the first one being alright, nothing special but decent. Wanted to like this one since it had all the ingredients to be something good but it shit the bed big time. First movie I've bailed on in ages, cut my losses at the halfway mark. Only commenting because it was bad to the point of...

I would like the idea of this movie a lot more if it was Ridley's follow up to Gladiator. Now, not so much, I hope it can overcome it's baggage. Then again, maybe that's the point and a way for Matt and Ben to hit back at their accusers and make bank doing it.

This was my biggest problem with the series. I had zero buy-in that anyone would choose to follow Karli in the first place, let alone her chucklefuck friends coordinating a global movement. I was optimistic a few episodes back when they showed the scene of her actively choosing to kill innocents...

Ended up enjoying this more than I thought I would. Slow start but on reflection it’s necessary and the movie grew on me as the run time went on. He’s competent but rusty, which is frustrating to watch at first but if you’re not revelling in the over the top fun by the end then I don’t know what...

I jumped in at launch, tried the demo 2 days before release and have been playing solo as a Devastator going the bottom skill line (Seismic Shifter) which is ability dependent. Level 17, World Tier 7 and things are doable if I nail the execution, but any error and it's death on captains or most...

Not sure if it ticks all your boxes but Just Watch is useful to see which service things are on.

Yeah it's not as stark in your video at the 21:30 time stamp. Watching other youtube playthroughs and while some look decent, some look like this x360 trailer. I didn't think they did any graphics updates between individual release and trilogy, but who knows. Either way, be good to go...

If all the character upgrades are this quality I'll be happy.

Technically a two part mini series, but used to have the VHS set years ago and enjoyed it. Pursuit AKA Twist of Fate (1989)
