I have a bit of a rubbish computer but good internet. Does anyone have any good web based games I can play?

Something tactical, I like war games

How well has Spyro aged? Is anything of it frustratingly hard, like the first Crash Bandicoot? I didn't pick up the N. Sane Trilogy because I already have the PS1 versions on Vita, but I'd consider looking at Spyro because I've never played any of them.

I did a replay of the first Spyro when I did the three Crash games - Spyro aged relatively well I think, better than Crash did.

Finished the South Park: Fractured But Whole game last night. Is it just my perception, or was it a substantially shorter/blander game than Stick of Truth was?

Spyro Remaster supposedly getting announced at 3, releases in September. Some of the leaked screenshots are fucking beautiful.

Unleash the Dragon.

[apsham]

Shit. That is a step above and beyond most remasters.

Crusader Kings II is free on steam! Download it if you haven't already.

I just fought Mitch Conner last night and I was thinking the same. I'm enjoying the game but nowhere near as much as I did Stick Of Truth.

They’re about the same length (FBW is probably an hour or so longer) but besides the combat I didn’t enjoy it as much as SoT (which I replayed again after beating FBW, still holds up) SoT had plenty of memorable moments (the Alien Spaceship, the school section and Canada just to name a few) but the only thing that really sticks out in my mind in FBW is the first Human Kite 2 fight (and only because of how it ended)

Ubisoft have made Ghost Recon: Wildlands available for free until the 15th, with progress carrying over if you choose to buy the game at a later date. Think I might give it a try!

I felt this way too. I don't know if it was the change to the combat, or just the story being less fun. I just liked the Stick Of Truth better.

Upon reflection, I think it's just less variety in the side-missions and plot points. Stick of Truth felt like it swerved you with random (fun) nonsense much more regularly, whereas so much of FBW has just going back and forth between the two superhero groups.

Finished AC2

Probably won't get Brotherhood until it's on sale so real quick:

Spoiler

Does Templar Pope survive? Cause not ensuring his death seems like a really good way to get fucked in the sequel.

Much better game than AC1 (especially when you get the capes giving you free reign to sock the bards). Could not give less of a fuck about Desmond though.

Yep. In the next game most of the trouble comes from his kids, though.

You and everyone else on this planet.

I mean

Spoiler

Sparing Templar Pope makes absolutely no goddamn sense. Okay fine, you wouldn't get any satisfaction from it. Good on you, Ezio. But he's also the motherfucking Pope.

 

[JasonM]

A problem with basing the game's villains off of real historical people. They couldn't kill him because that would ruin history, so they had to come up with some half-assed excuse why Ezio wouldn't want to prevent the Templar Grand Master from becoming the most powerful person in the christian world.

Next on my playlist was Layers of Fear.

Barely playable on my laptop but had a good time. Some of those 'scares' were more hilarious than creepy though.

Shenmue and Shenmue II are coming to PS4, Xbox One and PC.
