Oooh, a bit more Resident Evil 2, but it did it's usual thing where you get the key to open the door to get the lever to open the route to get the new zone to get the crank then go back to the first room to use the crank to open the door to oh balls, it's 1am again.
Mr. X has appeared and he's a right bloody pain, isn't he?
He has a habit of appearing when is least convenient like on a narrow corridor with zombies either side of you or in a prison full of zombie prisoners blocking the way!
I got that unlock DLC and I love it!
Spent a bit of time just running around introducing those shuffling basts to my minigun.
I'm not using it for the core game, but doing a bit of slaughter then reloading the last save and going back to the stock kit.
I called it quits and went to bed when I reached the sewer and was eaten by a crocodile.

Now that taiko no tatsujins monthly online contests have officially ended (you can still battle online but no longer can unlock the monthly songs) i have been giving some of my other rhythm games some attention as i haven't put many hours into some of them. Now focusing on the switch version of muse dash, really nice game gives you an obscene amount of songs to play through plus the art & whole feel is really well polished. With only 2 buttons to learn it gets surprisingly complex on the harder songs.
Sat on most of lunch break at work perfecting this total bop on hard mode.

With all those rhythm games, you must be an amazing dancer, [MENTION=39]importaku[/MENTION]!
More Resi 2 for me. I couldn't tell you how much is rehashed and how much is new, but apart from the Police Station lobby, I don't remember anything!
The Ada section was definitely new, but also bloody tense, especially when the game won't just let you chill and hack at your leisure!
Can't wait to do a speedrun with the bloody minigun and make zombie Swiss cheese.

Going into the weekend:
PS5: Guardians of the Galaxy - I've moved about six feet in this so far this week
XSX: Forza Horizon 5 - Circled away from it and all the way back around just to hoover up some last objectives before I call it a day
PC: Alan Wake Remastered - Not booted it up yet so hopefully will soon
RG355: Donkey Kong Country 3 - A lot of progress made across the trilogy this week

After raving about first imps of the Doom Eternal DLC, this week I have been mostly rage quitting. It's too fecking hard for my synapses, even on normal. The addition of enemies that buff other enemies to absurd degrees, and which can only be killed in a brief window with the slowest weapon in the game, is bordering on trolling. There's quite a lot of this kind of thing in the DLC - enemies that only react to a certain weapon type on a certain part of the body - and given the speed/intensity of the game that leaves me fumbling at the controls and swearing up a storm. Anyway, I'm submitting a formal rage quit notice on this DLC and pretending it never happened and that the campaign ended with the glorious base game.Last edited by Golgo; 14-01-2022, 09:11.

I know you'd played a few at Arcade Club and love Taiko no Tatsujin etc. so it's not just about having rhythm, it's knowing the game systems and scoring mechanics.
I've not played one for ages, but it's such a fun genre. I keep thinking about getting the PS4 Guitar Hero bundle.
I pushed on and completed Resident Evil 2 for the first scenario.
Wow, what a great game! Thanks for the suggestion in the bargains thread, gang.
These games have always been a bit nonsensical, but if you switch off a bit of logic, they're great fun.
Used the default weapons, to keep the game tense and scraped through with a C ranking - 11h 39m and 65 saves
Now it's time for a little fun and I've been introducing the zombies to Old Painless.
All their limbs are getting severed, there's blood everywhere and I've redecorated the walls with their innards. Grim.
Actually, a licker killed me, so I've swapped to the rocket launcher - not ideal in tight corridors!
It feels like a different game when you try to speedrun it!
Other bits I've dipped into are Split/Second (which is getting pretty tough!) and LEGO DC Villains with the kids.
The latter is a tricky one because we all have different agendas. My son wants to play the story as quick as possible, my daughter just wants to mess about and I want to replay the levels to unlock the bonuses (especially the multiplier red bricks), so much so that I played it a bit after they went to bed! Had to punch 5 targets as Flash in a set time limit and the pad nearly went through the window.
I'm also hooked on Wordle.

Hilariously blasted through the second scenario of Resident Evil 2 in a fraction of the time and saves as the first run, thanks to the rocket launcher! Deffo think playing it properly the first time is the way forward, but I had a blast (pun intended) on the second run with every abomination that intimidated me on the first run getting roasted in a second!
Then dipped into EDF5 as a mate got it in the sale.
It's really funny playing those earlier levels again on Normal difficulty with a handful of ants politely taking turns to attack, when you think about the absolute pandemonium of the later levels, especially on the tougher difficulties.
I'm about 170 hours in and last night I unlocked the award for 45% complete!
