What are you playing at the moment?

Finished Rift Wizard, really good little roguelike, kind of a puzzle really, bit like Hoplite. Loads of combinations to try.

Not sure what to do next, Gloomhaven, Super Robot Wars 30 or Inscryption... anybody played any of those? I've played Gloomhaven as a boardgame, but the conversion is supposed to be decent.
 
I didn't get on with the first one - is this likely to be worth a go for me?

Kinda similar, though not played as much of the 2nd as I have of the 1st. There are more gadgets and stuff to play with. What's not to like? Kinda like GTA, but with actual cool things to do. :hmm:
 
Still playing ' Guardians of the galaxy' which is really good.

Just installing Flight Simulator to my shadow - 126gb update , sigh
 
Rumour is it will be on Game Pass soon.

Oh, it's been denied apparently.

Went with Gloomhaven and it is basically the board game. But without you having to keep track of endless modifiers or stick stickers onto a map. It takes away a load of the management so you're free to plan and pick cards etc. I'm really enjoying it. My main problem with the board game is the amount of time and faff it takes to play it, and also finding anybody else who can deal with it. So this is kind of good. I mean it's still stressful and tense to play but removing all that stuff makes it loads better.

Will buy Inscryption in the sale to line up next I think.
 
I’ve just downloaded and will take a spin next week. My mate reckons it’s good but buggy in places?

There are a few bugs and in fact, it crashed on me just then :facepalm:

But for a AAA title, it's wonderfully polished and has loads of little features that are great fun to try and complete. It's the first game I've played in a while that has that 'just one more {race|round|turn}' feel, which invariably ends up at 3am with regrets. Great stuff.
 
I am very much enjoying Forza 5 at the moment. Great fun. Looks gorgeous too.
Do you play with a controller or steering wheel, or keyboard and mouse? I tried Forza 4 and I'm quite interested in that other racing game, iRacer or something, but with k+m it's never quite as enjoyable.

I use an old PS3 controller. It's not really a serious racing game so no need for a wheel.
 
Halo Infinite is very, very good.

I just put 2 hours into it without blinking. Story is engaging, gameplay loop is perfect, new guns are all boss and the old guns all got sound tweaks that - I think - all work.

Here's hoping they've stopped the warthog sounding like a whiny teenager

NB didn't ply Halo 5, makes no difference as far as I can tell.

This is proper Halo.

mwgdrwg if memory serves you were a fan, buy a Gamepass for £1 and the campaign is yours!!
