Triple A

The Revenant Top Gun: Maverick

Just started this (PC). New music is awesome and I like the voice acting too. I don't like the way the music volume dips when dialogue comes in though. Sprites suck quite a bit - the filtered look is bad and I wish they had put that bit more into the budget to make new & decent sprites. Is just about bearable in zoomed out mode, but I want to mod as a matter of urgency. The rotatable camera is a nice touch too and nod to FFT. Really nice remake overall.

PC version for sprite related mods, for me.

Spent some more time on this last night am partway thru the second area, where the visual quality of the environment has picked up nicely. It no longer feels quite like GOW: Disc 2, and more like a PS5 game, though there is still all the legacy character model and animation stuff in there of course.

Two hours into this now. Loving it, but I wanted more. Probably the best overpriced expansion ever.

Conflicted on this one - Sure, it's not especially artistically driven. But it's an effective piece of marketing work, doing its job as a cover image.

I'm enjoying the Rose DLC (Shadows of Rose iirc?). It's kinda like a remixed greatest hits EP of the original game, at least so far, with a few neat surprises and touches thrown in. The

Teen Spirit A straightforward story about a shy smalltown girl who enters a reality show singing contest, that's well told and with a lean, no-nonsense running time. Beautiful lighting and camera work, solid casting and more, give the movie a grounded fairytale feel. Elle Fanning is quite the triple threat! This was pretty good and a welcome surprise! 3.5

Arise! Nice Unity demo here - my 3090/5950X PC runs this at between 20 and 30fps, at 4K res (DLSS: Quality) and everything at max. So, it looks like this demo will have a bit of a lifespan. Download: https://unity.com/demos/enemies Video:

I would love to know if this is any good! 25 squids seems too good to be true but then I'm a cynical sort

On the 'upside', inflation will make it cost the equivalent of about a fiver, by the time you receive the goods.

Ah that's really sad. Fantastic legacy. I will raise a toast while playing the mini 2, arriving today. There's a credit to her in the menu/frontend of the device, I read elsewhere - I think it's a fitting tribute and way to inform people of her passing - keep it pure, through a product, that she heavily influenced.

Even the last week or so has been great - Uncharted PC, Triangle Strategy PC, Persona 5 Royal PC, CoDMW2 early access, Neo TWEWY Steam, more I’ve forgotten. Finally the drought is lifting. Don’t sleep on Triangle Strategy!

Just finished it this evening. Yeah was ok and worth a watch, but was nowt special. Other half hadn’t known the detail of the real-life version of the story, so was good that this dramatisation could get the message out a bit more widely.

OMG I checked out that channel and it's like a greatest hits of many of my favourite video game tracks. This performance is incredible:
