Need suggestions for two player PC games to play with partner. I am playing Overcooked now and it is very good.
It Takes Two, just came out considered a very good co-op game.

Finished the Ancient Gods part 1 DLC of Doom Eternal. I have purchased it a long time ago and didn't have a chance to play it. Also bought the second part and will start it next few days.
Mostly as good as the base game, which means great, but some fights were utterly ridiculous and the final boss was terrible. Hurt Me Plenty on this DLC seem to be as hard as Ultra Violence on the base game on something. I finished the main game on UV no problem and found it a very fair difficulty, but had to go into this on HMP to not rage quit.

Thank you!
So MLB The Show 21's coming to Xbox Game Pass on the day of its release thanks to MLB. Honestly, the more newly-released games that Game Pass gets, the better a deal it becomes.
So more developers don’t get paid for their work. Great system.
Shut the hell up. Of course they are getting paid and don't make me pull out those quotes from small independent developers praising gamepass.
Anyway

This guy must be minted now. Not sure if anyone remembers that show.
I've never heard of that, cheat books that came free with copies of GamesMaster were my jam.
I picked up CVG or Gamesmaster depending on what had the better cover that month. I didn’t really bother with cheats besides GTA to get the tank and blow everything up.
I am surprised out of all the magazines that Edge is still going.
I remember that exact bit in the thumbnail
I downloaded Madden via Gamepass PC and whilst you can play with a DS4 without any issues, all the button prompts for route selection etc are in Xbox controls. As this means nothing to me its kinda hard to play.
WIll give it a go with keyboard but thats feels a bit weird for a sports game

They had a good one once telling you the value of rare games. That's when I learned I should have kept my box for Shining Force II. Could get £100 for that these days

Yeah, that was awesome. Before the internet you really had to work to know the value of those kinds of things. I still shudder at the thought of all the rare carts/games I have but no box for
Yeah I think they gave that book out a few times, I remember having at least two copies of it. I'd look through it loads looking to see if I had any valuable ones. I think I had one or two that were worth about £10-20 more than I paid and I though it was so coolThey had a good one once telling you the value of rare games.

Playing Assassin's Creed Origins after having mixed feelings about Odyssey and no interest in Valhalla whatsoever but this one's decent enough so far. I like the Hellenistic Egypt setting. Combat is very clunky though.
It's a pity they never made one set in Persia around the time of the Macedonian invasion or one about Alexander's travels. I bet there would be a lot of interest there and there was tons of assassinations in that period. At any rate, i'm guessing the next one will be a Ghost of Tsushima tribute

I like Origins the most out of this trilogy just because it was the most tight and focused one, while Odyssey and Valhalla just kept on dragging and focused on having +100 hours game rather than a compact plot.
Haven't played any of them but Origins tempted me the most. Egypt is a more interesting and unexplored setting than more viking games
Mobile Call of Duty developers made $10 billion last year...
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/c...mong-the-worlds-largest-studios/1100-6489672/
According to this...

Console revenue was $19.7 billion, PC revenue was $33 billion and mobile was $73 billion. Mobile games are so fecking shite but they're complete goldmines.

Even shorter for me. And it annoys me greatly if I give a game a few hours and then dislike it. Like with Enter the Gungeon and ABZU recently.
Holy shit!! I used to love that show. What a blast from the past. Thank you for that.
Aye, it's access though. Everyone has a mobile phone, not everyone has a console or gaming PC.
Yes.
After a few recommendations from friends, I decided to put on Outer Wilds. I've been playing for a good 2 1/2 to 3 hours so far.
Unfortunately, I can't say that I'm massively enjoying the experience so far. Finding it very underwhelming. The biggest issue for me is that controls which are absolute arse. This seems to be a common issue with games set in space (Elite Dangerous being another one) where it just appears to be unnecessarily fiddly for the sake of being that way, or for the sake of "space is dangerous, nothing is easy". I find that very artificial. It just removes that sense of wonder and instead becomes a sense of frustration.
That's my biggest irritation so far. I also wasn't entirely prepared with how much of the story is told through logs and reading. Just seems like another common trope in science fiction games. I was expecting a bit more of a visual storytelling experience. The abstract-y things that I've experienced so far have been nice, but finding it very, very rough around the edges.
I'm hoping that it gets better and clicks at some point. But so far, I'm not gripped.

I've got a huge backlog to play, but seeing posts about RDR2 all over recently makes me wanna do it all again
Still putting many hours into M.G.S.V.
Anybody else finding themselves play games less now the sun's out?
Same. Literally just cleared it for the 8 time 2 days ago after the buying the definitive edition for 6 quid in a sale. For a mgs game I hate so much. The gameplay is great.
Definitely, barely played last couple of weeks
Been playing golf, graphics are immense but the controls are near impossible.
I dedicate this one to @Bojan11 - GamingCaf God. Hope he comes back one day.
Platinum #18 - Goat Simulator (PS4)
Pretty straightforward, though whoever decided to put a Flappy Bird mini-game trophy is evil.

Well done Damo~
Thanks, though like I said the game was easy.

What depths has journalism plunged to, making an article from a post on reddit about a game that launched 13 years ago?
So Quiplash is currently for free on Steam. For those of you who are keen on getting free games, get it while you still can!
Thanks for the heads up @mazhar13
Also Nier Replicant is out today. Anyone else into that sort of thing?

Is it a redo of Automata, or a fresh game, or something else?
I adore so much of Automata in the style and story but there is so much low consequence, grindy gameplay that I doubt I'd play through it again without significant additions.
Remake of the original Nier. Yeah, there was one more Nier game that came before Automata.
I'm planning to get it soon though I have some other games to finish first, particularly Cyberpunk which I put in 10 hours recently.
