    I've been playing the original Red Dead, someone left a copy in my old Xbox what must have been years ago and I just found it. Every character is a filthy weirdo to some degree and the map is all portioned off (so far so Rockstar) and it feels very much like GTA4 without cars. It seems to have held up pretty well though, minor gripes being that the horse controls are poison at anything other than top speed, it always seems to be night (seriously, how hard is it to set the time to morning after each save) and the fast travel system is a bit bonkers but then they always are.

    Makes me curious about the second one and how much dress-up fun they added (I hope it's a lot or I'm not bothering).

    I remember Blood Stone was pretty decent, wasn't based on any existing Bond but they did sign up Daniel Craig and Judi Dench all the same. I'm still hoping they get a Lego James Bond collaboration set up

    Hi 2013 here, GTAIV is fucking brilliant.

    The three characters are all interesting enough, I'm modelling the yokel type one (he's not really) on one of my mates which is adding a new dimension. LA is just glorious.

    I didn't fast travel at all in that game. I like the mood of being in the middle of a massive nowhere.

    There's lots of dress-up stuff. Plus you can grow an excellent beard and/or get fat from eating loads.

    If you want to do all that stuff it's worth reading up on how to maximise the profits, but it's a bit pointless when there isn't that much to spend your money on. It's such a shame they only ever added things to the poisonous online mode, the map/city itself has so much potential.

    I'll see if I can be arsed with online but quite content with roaming around LA and completing the main story. I know the hick is called Trevor since yesterday.

    I think I love this. All the BBC footage of business shit and then people out of their depth completely winging it.

    Newsnight Review's take on the Wii was .... something else.

    I ended up loving Druidstone. It does a great job of making you care about the characters by the end, the plot isn't ground-breaking but has a pleasant number of twists and turns in there, it's got a little darkness to it without being 'gritty' or grimdark, it looks absolutely gorgeous and it manages to pull off being tonally all over the place. Like it looks and seems pretty cutesy fantasy at first but a number of the characters speak like normal 21st century humans, it has some twangy string music but the final boss emerges to a bangin' guitar riff and then a lively metal track blares throughout the fight. I like it very much.

    Still time to kill before Cyberpunk (is delayed again) so I've gone for Slay the Spire off gamepass as I doubt I'll have time to knock off some meaty story-heavy thing. It seems fun so far, I dunno for how long it'll make me want to come back and play more but when I start it's pretty compulsive so we'll see.

    Slay the Spire is my time-killing game. It's ridiculously easy to come back to and play on repeat, as the ascension levels get harder and harder. So many combos to be discovered.

    Metal Gear Solid remake confirmed. No, not the Gamecube one.

    Nevermind: WhatCulture's reporting a rumour as CONFIRMED. BluePoint has been allegedly working on it for 3 years.

    It won't be. Bluepoint did the HD collections and they made it to the 360.

    That was because Sony owned the Demon Souls property. That's how they could do that project without asking From Software for original assets.

    It should be enshrined in video game law that every open world game should let me pick what time of day it is whenever I like, your day/night cycle is not as clever as you think it is.

    Especially when you get games like GTA / Red Dead forcing missions to start at certain times so it's all moody.

    Yes, a thousand times yes. I have shitty eyesight, and half the time can't see jack shit in these dark, foggy games. I want bright, over-exposed sunshine... and I want it all the time.

    I just don't want the same main races again. That's part of what wound me up about Andromeda. I've gone a billion light-years to another galaxy and I'm still spending most of my time dealing with the same Milky Way races.

    No. I decided to not Fifa this year. Too many things I don't like that look like they will never be changed like GKs showing how many goals they have scored and not having a filter in-game, to show gold cards that are left-footed.

    Im not even playing ProClubs for the lol.

    Nice. I also have a CSL wheel, but with clubsport pedals, and a GT1-EVO rig.

    I haven't used any of it in like six months.

    Just finished Horizon Zero Dawn after restarting after a lost mid-game save and it was amazing. Best game I played since Witcher 3 I think. Maybe Divinity 2 edges it but honestly it's close. I love games like that where you play as a fleshed out character who is part of a well-crafted story surrounding them.

    Anyway, I'm running out of things to play on PS4. I'm not looking likely to be able to get a hold of a PS5 until in a couple of months earliest, and I'm holding off on playing Cyberpunk until I have one.

    So far on PS4 I've played:

    Witcher 3 & DLCs
    The Outer Worlds
    Divinity 2
    Horizon Zero Dawn
    Fallout 4
    Red Dead Redemption 2
    God of War
    Dragon Age Inquisition



    Now I'm a little at a loss. Anyone have any suggestions? I basically want to play Rich Story RPGs, and I don't like games that are too hard (which is why I'm a little put off by the idea of Bloodborne for instance as I read it was difficult).

    I was looking a little att Nier: Automata but it seems a little weird?
