We've all played a game that made us wonder how it even got released. Maybe the gameplay was terrible, the story made no sense, or it was just a complete waste of time.

What game was the worst for you, and what made it so bad? I'm curious to hear your experience.

So could be anything from lock picking mini games to actual mini games like snake etc...

I'll ever accept games within a game like timepslitters 2 being playable on home front revolution or Wolfenstein containing the originals (loose spin offs).

So essentially which background game(s) do you enjoy the most.

For me it's Blackjack on Fallout: New Vegas, Sabacc on Starwars Outlaws, Orlog from Assassin's creed Valhalla & lock picking on Oblivion

bro some game trailers make the game look like the greatest thing to ever exist

then you download it, play for 2 hours and realise the trailer was basically the entire experience.
I've started checking Reddit before getting into a new game. Not just reviews, but what people are daying after they've actually put some hours into it.

couple of things that seem to help:
- Search the game's name with “after 20 hours” or “is it still worth it”
- Check the complaints, because every game's fanbase will tell you it's a masterpiece
- Look at recent updates. A review from 2 years ago might be completely useless now.
- Watch actual gameplay instead of a trailer with cinematic shots every 3 seconds.
The funniest part is when you find a thread from someone explaining exactly why the game gets boring
halfway through. Saves you hours of finding out yourself lmao.
But I'm curious, do you guys actually research a game before buying it or just see a cool trailer and say
“yeah, this is the one”?

I'm trying to find a mobile game where drifting and boosting of a car feel great. In most games I've tried, I can do one or the other, but combining them (drift into a corner, boost out of it) feels clumsy on a touchscreen.

I'm especially interested in games with delivery missions, which are a fun and slightly challenging.

I was curious if anyone knew if there was a game that has some sort of reflex character trait that translates to something like a longer time for you in a quick time event. It’s a bit vague but I want to find something that has some crazy mechanics, like if you have a high reflex ability then the qte is 5 seconds compared to 1 second. Please recommend any games you think are relevant even if you’re on the edge I want to hear them lol.

I really liked these few:

Sixty Four

Dredge

Stardew Valley

Misfortune

Cozy Grove

Outer Wilds

For me

1. Fallout New Vegas
2. GTA San Andreas
3. Tears of the Kingdom

My personal vote is split between Ecco The Dolphin on Sega Genesis, and Driver on PlayStation 1.

I just became a dad of 2 and have very limited time on my hands and feel a classic retro game (any console pre gen 7) with a solid story and suitable combat would fit my life good right now so wondering what is recommended

modern games have impressive graphics and lots of features, but i've noticed that some older games feel more straightforward and focus more on gameplay. newer games sometimes have so many side activities and extra systems that the main experience gets lost.

not every old game has aged well, of course, and plenty of modern games are great too. i'm curious what other players think. do you enjoy newer releases more, or do older games still offer something that modern games seem to be missing?

Not much in a game impresses me more than when I shoot an enemy's leg and they drop to a knee and struggle to hobble back up, same goes for shooting a weapon out of an an enemy's hand .

Bonus points for the realistic headshot just dropping the dead body as opposed to the "Hollywood" style death animation.

I thought both Last of us games did this particularly well, especially The Part 2, looking for more examples of you have any?

Some context: I’m disabled. Sometimes games can be quite difficult physically (lack of motor skills) or make me dizzy and give me headaches.

So when it released I soon tried to play Ghost of Tsushima and found it difficult and slow. I matured a little this past year and came to play the game, figured I’d give it a second try. It was one of if not the best thing I’ve ever played. Difficulty was reasonable on normal, and I was even able to platinum it on PS5 (pretty easy platinum overall to be honest) Even without needing to ever lower it or use accessibility tools.

I now feel bored and don’t know what to play. I did play Moonlighter after because I really like TBOI so the similarities kinda drew me. But it was numb play without any attachment or will to keep going.

Any tips on cool games to play after that are similar? Already beat Crimson Desert, it was really good, but not memorable for me.

If possible suggest ones in PSN, being disabled costs me around 30% of monthly money, can’t buy much these days.

Feel free to discuss further how you felt about the game and if anybody felt the same as me.

(thanks everybody, I’ll do my best to answer and give them all a go)

I have been lately playing a creative minecraft world which has had many mods and other add-ons but I gotta add more cuz ofc it gets boring after some times so can someone suggest some good mod ideas i can try searching for to add a richer experience to my game(btw the thing is bedrock with 2 players)

I'm curious which game has made you stop and stare at the screen. I don't mean just high-resolution textures. I mean a game where the lighting, art style, or sheer detail made you say wow.

I’d like to hear:

• Which game has the best graphics you’ve played, and what makes it stand out for you?
• Is it realism, art style, or lighting that matters most to you?
• Is there an older game whose look still holds up today?
• Is there a game that looked amazing in screenshots but let you down in motion?

I was looking for some nice wallpapers and artwork from video games to obtain or download. I was wondering which games offer nice ones, or if the community created really good ones for certain games.

Your suggestions are welcome!

What i mean by this is that red dead revolver ps2 has content missing compared to other versions and if you can mod it. On a ps2 emulator at least.
