I'm sure we had one of these before, but as we've got nowhere else on the forums for general game chat, here it is....

I tend to only really be able to focus on one or two games at a time. If I have too much on the go then I tend to find I just never go back to some of them. I've got too much on the go at the moment but 3 of those games are driving games so I can just come and go with them.


Currently, Deus Ex, Warhammer TW, Dishonored 2 all unfinished.

Plus, I now have Fallout 4 with the new Hi-res texture pack (all 54 Gb of it!), which I'm stumbling around in again going "Ooh! " and "Aah!" every time I pass a tree or rock or, particularly, a river. What a massive difference, the majority of the textures in game now pop instead of muddying up the closer you get.

Oddly, they do seem to have messed up some of the LOD textures, and particularly the way they load; not so much an issue with them "popping in" as more a case that some of them can't make up their mind whether they need to load or not.

How the hell do you find the time?


About an hour a day or more if I'm lucky. But I can never play just one game at a time.

Yep, it does look pretty good. Still need to get Sniper Elite 4 done and For Honor, though. Then PS4 has Horizon: Zero Dawn (which I haven't got but hope to at some point) and then there's Switch, Ghost Recon, LEGO City Uncovered, Injustice II....

Glad you feel the same way as me ;¬) Just how I would describe it and probably why I'll subscribe to it ...


It'll be a while before I buy RE 7, still playing Warhammer Total War. Bought all the DLC for it (£47!), and I've been playing the Beastmen in a brand new campaign. Might try the Wood Elves next...

Probably worth mentioning, I will be buying the game for sure. It's the first survival horror game for a while that's given me a bit of a chill without relying on the "make you jump" mechanic. Unsettling is about the best way to describe it.
