To be honest I'm mostly just impressed by the game pad. It's pretty well put together! I don't understand why they don't sell a load of their older games though. Diddy Kong Racing, the Pokémon Games, etc. I'm still convinced Nintendo don't actually understand humans or their desires :lol:

They are really weird about a lot of things.

Bloodborne is viciously pushing my shit in.

It takes a while to get out of the Dark Souls mindset of "Hold up shield, gently walk forwards, block for ages to learn attack pattern" and instead that I have to keep dodging and hitting and countering.

I've died on the first area about 10 times and it's all been my fault and I love it.

It took me over 10 hours of farming and one super focused 15 minute attempt to beat a certain boss on Bloodborne yesterday, and today I've beaten 2 and explored 3 areas and beat a dungeon

Fuck I hate that boss.

Started co-oping Saints Row 4. Been a bit of a glitchy experience so far. Its playable. Aside from that Far Cry Classic is a work in progress, if I can ever drag myself from building random shit on Minecraft.

World of Tanks compatibility between xbone and 360 sounds like great news. My Grille is ready.

Preordered God of war 3 on ps4. Its the only one I haven't played and I loved the others so I thought it would be worth a play. Also, I need a game for my ps4 that I can't get for my Xbox one. Any game really. But not killzone shadow fall. Never that.

Really loving Saints Row 4 even though it's mental! Kind of annoyed that I'm yet to play a game that's exclusive to the PS4. It's funny to think that the PS3 and Xbox 360 are near enough ten year old consoles. If you go back a few generations. That's like expecting AAA games that were being released on the Playstation 1 to also be released on the Megadrive and Super NES.

I need Gat Outta Hell as soon as possible. I played all the dlc on SR4 which was varying degrees of insanity.

Just started Stick of Truth. In Butters kitchen, open a drawer, hand full of pubes. I am in tears. More silly games for me to play please.

World of Tanks on xbone went live yesterday. My mate thought he could just go play it tonight without patches. Yeah...right.


So I am playing alone and doing really well actually.
