Game of the twelvemonth material
Very absorbing review of Batman: Arkham Shadow connected the Meta Quest 3. I retrieve you were precise impressed with it astatine Gamescom and present it’s looking similar it’s 1 of the champion games of the year. I haven’t played it yet, but I was contemplating getting a Meta Quest 3 for Christmas, particularly arsenic you tin get bundles wherever the crippled comes free.
I’m present wondering whether it volition go accepted arsenic the champion VR crippled ever. It doesn’t person a azygous antagonistic oregon adjacent mean region connected Metacritic and the biggest contented anyone seems to person with it is the bugs, which volition hopefully beryllium fixed by Christmas.
The lone crippled that’s travel adjacent successful presumption of acclaim, arsenic acold arsenic I know, is Asgard’s Wrath 2 and connected a idiosyncratic level I find Arkham Shadow a batch much appealing. After the shambles Sony has made of the PlayStation VR2 it’s been large to spot immoderate positivity astir VR and portion I don’t similar Meta arsenic a institution I’m gladsome to spot they’re putting successful the enactment to legitimise VR arsenic a format.
Campbell
GC: We’d request a spot of region from it to reply that question, but it’s got to beryllium apical 3 astatine least. Asgard’s Wrath 2 is the different evident frontrunner, though we’ll ever emotion Rez Infinite.
GTA 4 kids
GC mentioned Lego City Undercover recently, successful effect to an Inbox letter. The lone Lego games I’d tried anterior to playing it were a mates of the Batman ones connected PlayStation 3, which I didn’t like, and fixed that the look seems to beryllium fundamentally the aforesaid crossed each the licensed properties, I concluded that the games conscionable weren’t for me.
Even so, astir six months agone I gave Lego City Undercover a effort (on PlayStation 4) aft speechmaking a remark that likened it to GTA for kids. It was truthful overmuch fun! The state and gait were fantastic. After it was over, I wanted more, truthful I bought a Marvel Avengers one… and it was awful. I played it for a mates of days earlier giving up.
It felt truthful uninspired, by comparison. It’s improbable that my feelings are unique, truthful my takeaway from the dual acquisition is to accidental to anyone who dislikes the emblematic Lego look to not automatically regularisation retired Lego City Undercover; it mightiness conscionable astonishment you, too.
Shin
GC: It’s decidedly an underrated gem. The publication is besides precise bully and consistently funny; the publication writer was a erstwhile stand-up comedian and it shows. You’re not incorrect astir Marvel’s Avengers either, arsenic that’s 1 of the worst ones and intelligibly conscionable a rehash of elements from the superior Marvel Super Heroes.
Your mileage whitethorn vary
Thanks for covering the Meta Quest 3S. I was amazed to work a adjacent to 3 hr artillery life, I conjecture it’s good arsenic the worst reappraisal I saw lone got astir an hr and 15 minutes. In my case, however, a worst lawsuit script would beryllium plentifulness of time!
I tried VR for the archetypal clip a fewer days agone astatine a section subject show, they had Richie’s Plank Experience demoed and you could spot what the participants saw connected a large level screen. I gave it a spell and wow, getting retired of that elevator was a conflict arsenic my legs went weak, it didn’t substance that I knew I was connected carpet it was astir excessively much.
I person nary occupation with heights mostly and happily dive from heights successful Assassin’s Creed but this felt truthful different. I besides had a headache for immoderate 4 hours aft the event, contempt lone being successful VR for 3 minutes oregon so, but the acquisition was amazing, I americium going to get a 3S for definite aft this, headache oregon not!
Rob
GC: The artillery beingness depends connected the app and however graphically intensive it is and whether it’s utilizing the outer cameras.

A twelvemonth and a bit
I spot Spider-Man 2 going to PC lone 15 months aft PlayStation 5 is causing a meltdown connected Twitter. It’s looking similar Nintendo and Meta are becoming the past bastions of exclusive games. We cognize what to expect from Nintendo, but adjacent Meta recognize the worth of exclusive content.
Do Sony not realise they are losing customers to PC, conscionable arsenic Xbox did? Putting games everyplace sounds bully successful theory, for accrued revenue, but yet it volition shrink the console marketplace adjacent further. Microsoft’s confederation with PC is possibly understandable but PC, and much specifically Steam, are a nonstop competitor. It isn’t astonishing the PC marketplace is increasing, whilst the console marketplace is going successful the other direction.

Arresting developments
I cognize that these are astir apt not successful the aforesaid vein arsenic the constabulary games that the scholar mentioned, but connected the Switch, Astral Chain I judge is simply a police-like game. Have besides person heard immoderate large things astir it (it is connected my support successful my backlog waiting to beryllium played). Also, immoderate of the Ace Attorney games person constabulary and forensic-like elements to them.
They could instrumentality themselves backmost to the bully aged constituent ‘n’ click Sierra escapade games similar Police Quest. Probably not connected listed systems, but disposable connected GOG and Steam, and I americium definite would not necessitate a high-end PC to run.
Failing that, whenever Deca Police yet is released, that could beryllium different option.
Sigmar
GC: Astral Chain is simply a large game, and technically you’re constabulary officers, but that’s adjacent much of a agelong than Resident Evil 2. Ace Attorney is simply a bully telephone though. There’s a batch of Police Quest and SWAT inspired games connected PC but we deliberation helium said helium didn’t person one.
Lost team
It’s being reported that the income of Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown weren’t capable for Ubisoft and there’s present nary accidental of a sequel and the team’s been disbanded.
I’m hugely disappointed by this. The Lost Crown has been 1 of my favourite games this year. I precocious picked up the DLC and there’s immoderate superb ideas successful there, that marque for immoderate fiendish challenges.
Who knows what the reasons mightiness beryllium for the disappointing sales, released astatine a atrocious clip of year, the incorrect marketing, a genre that’s not successful fashion. Whatever the cause, it’s a shame that the talented squad down this fantabulous rubric aren’t rewarded for their efforts.
Hopefully this doesn’t thrust Ubisoft and Prince Of Persia towards a much Assassin’s Creed collectathon benignant gameplay and that different spin-off inactive sees the airy of day.
Euclidian Boxes
GC: It’s a shame because, arsenic you say, it’s a large game. The selling wasn’t precise bully though and we don’t deliberation the Prince Of Persia transportation helped it successful immoderate way.
Total Darksiders
I anticipation this is helpful.
I was funny successful the caller remaster for Darksiders 2 but didn’t ain the past gen version, truthful couldn’t get a escaped upgrade connected Xbox, truthful would person to wage £25. I was browsing the Xbox store and saw the Darksiders 3 Blade and Whip variation was lone £12 and included Darksiders Warmaster edition, Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition, and Darksiders 3 and 2 add-ons.
As acold arsenic could archer Darksiders 2 has automatically upgraded to the XS edition. I thought this was a bully woody and thought others mightiness beryllium interested.
Cheers and support up the bully work.
Anon
GC: Thanks. That seems a bully woody to us, and an atrocious batch of Darksiders.
Where to go
Huge acknowledgment to Remedy for the day update that’s released today. I’m a instrumentality of Alan Wake 2, contempt the information that astir of the time, erstwhile playing done the fantastic narrative, I either don’t cognize wherever to spell oregon what to really do. But I admit the information that I nary longer person to interest astir moving retired of batteries and ammo. Or I don’t extremity up dormant successful a acheronian ditch.
But I would person appreciated a waypoint system. This crippled sorely needed much than conscionable an nonsubjective and nary beacon, arrow oregon usher to archer you the adjacent step. I find myself searching connected the net for immoderate semblance of directions and this takes a batch distant from the wide satellite that Remedy person built.
This was commonplace during my clip with Silent Hill 2 remake. I loved playing done the communicative and the communicative but I often recovered myself utilizing a usher to fig retired what I was expected to do. That drove maine to springiness up connected it and I honestly judge Remedy should springiness america a waypoint system.
In Control this wasn’t an issue, but Alan Wake 2 is simply a little linear title. All successful each though, I’ll yet beryllium capable to decorativeness the communicative without worries and possibly cheque retired the DLC. If it’s worthy the time.

I person to springiness Astro Bot immoderate Inbox love. I’ve been gaming for implicit 35 years present and seldom has a crippled enactment a grin connected my look perpetually similar Astro Bot has. I find myself looking guardant to switching connected my PlayStation 5 astatine the extremity of the night.
Adam_Lion_23 (PSN ID)
I truly don’t cognize wherever they tin spell from present successful presumption of a caller Super Smash Bros. You can’t person much characters than that, it’s conscionable excessively overmuch work. I expect either a reboot with the roster of the N64 crippled oregon conscionable a consecutive remaster of Ultimate – I’m not definite it tin get immoderate amended than that.
