So I'm on to World 8 of SM3DW now. It's definitely hotting up (well World 7 was hotter I guess, but yknow) and I even had to backtrack to get the 130 star gate unlocked, which was kinda fun in its own way too. May take a gander at the bonus worlds too once I'm through this one, we shall see...

Now got to THE FINAL LEVEL but there's another fucking "GO GET SOME MORE STARS" thing which is feeling pretty tedious this time round. Like I've done all the levels, surely that used to be good enough on Mario games?? Up to the main boss at least.

acemuzzy

Right, turned out I hadn't quite completed all the other ones, and in fact so doing took me precisely to the requisite star count :-)

. Things slightly fogiven. But Bowser himself will wait till tomorrow, his door now open wide...

Pako 2.

This is how you do it, pc gaming with controller. No faffing at all. Lovely.

Apart from Splatoon 2, MK8DX, ARMS and Monster Hunter Generations, I'm also slowly making progress through Super Metroid.

Spoiler:

My thumb is not used to so much d-pad gaming, and I slightly regret not buying and playing this on the WiiU / the big screen.

Spoilers just in case, loving it so far. Pretty sure I'll hit a point where I just can't get past. Had the same in Fusion and Zero Mission.

Bloody Tempy and his write ups, has me well looking forward to playing Hollow Knight. Sounds good for switch.

I've never gotten as far in as I have now, think my last upgrade was the spacer, but I got that fairly late I think. Been to two rooms with different green animals (gremlin like creatures and a dodo), learning some nice skills. Am now walking through previous visits areas, finding all kinds of new paths and rooms now I have power bombs. Really loving the artwork, music and atmosphere this game has, and the gameplay so far has been easy enough to not make wandering around feel like a chore. Custom save point option in the 3DS does help with that too. Could make one with full health just before Kraid, no need to walk the same hallways over and over again. Also didn't realize this game mainly just gives you your skills, just need to find them. This also means you don't get a reward from a boss, apart from an open door. Simple, but effective so far.

I'm not afraid to look things up Davy, I have done so on a couple of areas (mainly to confirm I was doing the right thing, twice I needed to shoot some specific blocks). Also looked up on Kraid, but I was doing the correct thing, it was my timing and not paying enough attention that got me killed. Need to be more patient.

More afraid that it will get too hard at some point.
In Fusion and Zero Mission I gave up

Spoiler:

Might need to replay those at some point.

Was truly surprised by how good the artwork in some areas is, just beautiful.

Super Metroid doesn't get super hard so you should be OK. I was able to complete it.

Mass Effect Andromeda has got it's claws in.
"Just one more side mission then bed" said livdiv at midnight every night this week.

So yeah, if you can look past the still shonky animation and get over the fact it isn't Shep and his crew it isn't bad really. Even the planet exploration is interesting although Nintendo have shown up all open world exploration games now and not being able to climb surfaces is annoying.

I'm still not ready to start Breath of the Wild, so I'm looking for something smaller, yet still retail size, to get through while I work myself up to the big one.

Narrowed it down to:

Hitman: The Complete First Season - £21.85 on Prime (I don't tend to like stealth in 3D, yet I keep looking at this and like the idea of episodic sections).
Halo Wars 2 - £15ish
Sunset Overdrive - £5
Titanfall 2 - £17 (campaign appeals)
~~DOOM - £9 (it's always on my list, but I'm put off by 11.5hrs on HLTB, ideally I'd like this to be half that as I get fed up with FPS games quite easily)~~

...or I could play Ryse, which I own. Or finish The Order. Or plough on with Gears 4 without waiting for Retroking. Any suggestions?

Bob

Not DOOM it sucks

Yossarian

I'd definitely say Doom based on Bob's review.

Also, how have you not finished The Order? Surely completing it is faster than ejecting the disc.

Aaroncupboard

Sunset Overdrive is a surprisingly fantastic game. Not too massive for an open world game and the movement throughout is wonderful.

JonB

Doom plays a good game but it does drag on a bit. Doesn't have the variety to sustain it.

Dark Soldier

Play DOOM or I will punch you

You've not actually played The Order have you?

Yossarian

I've completed it twice since I posted that.

Yossarian

But in all seriousness, I have zero desire to play The Order. It doesn't appeal to me in the slightest.

acemuzzy

Get hitman and then lend it me

That's fine. But if your going to take the piss at least try to be on point. Of the 8 hours run time 7 hours 55 minutes is unskippable walking cutscenes

Yossarian

Nah, you're alright. I'll stick to what I'm doing, ta.

Moot_Geeza

I want to like Hitman but I won't, just watched a video and there was a bit of body hiding.

Ordered Sunset Overdrive in the end, thanks all.

Yossarian

Ordered it? Did you miss it on GwG?

Moot_Geeza

I also bid on Halo Wars 2 then forgot I'd done it, so hopefully I don't win that.

Only had the Bone since October. If I missed it before then that's good news for me.

To be fair you usually make no sense, as you where.

Wait.
