Ok tonight it's Mafia: Definitive Edition. I missed this game the first time around. The opening credits graphics are stunning so far.

Nearly finished. It's a gorgeous remake. Some challenging bits but mostly a great narrative/driving/3rd person shooter.

A friend introduced me to Among Us yesterday, it's all I've been playing :D It's free on mobile devices.

 

Around $6 on Steam.  https://store.steampowered.com/app/945360/Among_Us/

 

Eldest daughter has been playing it for months, apparently one of her teachers runs "Among Us" classes at lunchtimes :D

Couldn't get in to that, partly graphics and partly I find mobile games annoying to play. I thought this might be the one that changed my find but I just didn't enjoy the experience and can't work out why!

I play the Steam version.

 

I don't care what the gfx are like in a game, long as the gameplay is there, I'm happy.

 

But I grew up with games such as Police Quest on the Amiga, and Pirates! on the C64 etc, and my first gaming system, an Atari 2600 ;)

Finished Mafia. Now that's how you do a remake! That and FF7 Remake really set the bar high for remakes this year.

@gehenna I don't know if you have it, or are interested, but Arkham Origins is really cheap on steam for another day or so. I paid NZ$6 for it. I'm in no hurry to play but it was too cheap not to buy.

After completing the Last of Us part II I decided to go back and replay the original. I gave up about an hour into it, I just couldn't bring myself to endure it. The game play dynamics became infuriating compared to the modern sequel. Decided not to continue so as not to tarnish my memory of what was a great game of its time. But wow, have it's gameplay dynamics aged poorly!

Wow, that's a harsh assessment.  I agree there are nicer parts to the new mechanic, and some of the new things are cool like prone etc.  But I have replayed TLOU a few times and never found it to be a problem.  Were you playing the remaster or original?

I play a lot of Roblox games with my 7 yr old daughter.. I'll show myself out.

But in my defense, I want to encourage her to use her iPad less and her PC more with the hopes she is keen to get into PC gaming. Cold War is coming and I need a wing man for call outs on Warzone.

Again, I'll see myself to the door.

Played Arkham City remaster when I was away on holiday this week. It's a great game and I have enjoyed it. I can't recall any of the story from when I played it last and there are mechanics in it that seem unfamiliar to me.

 

I am struggling with the timing of attacks in groups, it keeps saying too fast, but if I go slower it breaks my hit combo counter.

 

It's a huge game as well. I still have over 80% to go.
