The squeaky dead baby in the original Silent Hill made my entire body go cold π There's been a few over the years. The all time worst, which made me properly scream out, was the PT Trailer. When you turn around and the ghost gets you. I was playing in the dark with the sound right up. Scared the cr*p out of me!! π
Silent Hill, hands down. I remember getting home and firing the original up on launch day. A weekend with that game changes a man π The sequel is one of my favourite games of all time. The rest of the series I'm not fussed about. Honourable mention to Dead Space and Resi βΊοΈ
I know little about monitors but these look and sound lovely π Not sure about the price though? My TV does all those things, is 55" and only cost Β£100 more than the 32" π€
I'm sure many of you have already but I'd recommend a second (or tenth) watch of the gameplay reveal. There's SO much in there that multiple viewings are a real treat π
Glad to see some fellow gamers excited for this as well! Imagine an RPG similar to Jade Empire (melee focused) set in 90's NYC with a Wu Tang soundtrack π
I'm thinking 30min run-through of a small side mission followed by a goosebump inducing story trailer βΊοΈ Oh, and the reveal of an awesome Collectors Edition!
Yes!!! 2pm here, perfect. I'll take lunch a little later π Cannot wait for this. It's incredible that the multiplayer is so good but Halo has always been about the campaigns for me βΊοΈ Fingers firmly crossed.
Pandora Tomorrow for me. I've only ever played the first three. The original felt groundbreaking and Chaos Theory looked stunning. It's Pandora Tomorrow that I remember most fondly though π
What a thoroughly enjoyable comments section this is π Some fantastic insights and points being made. I hate to sound patronising, certainly not my intention (maybe it's my age) but I'm genuinely proud of how great this is! It could easily have devolved into the usual nonsense.
I saw the Tweet last night and have to admit, as it was from THE source, I was pretty dam excited! Any Fable news is amazing news in my book π Gutted to find out it was a mistake?! What a mistake too. Xbox are usually so on point with this stuff.
The whole Fandom event was fantastic, some amazing things shown π Both games look highly polished already. Let's hope the gameplay can match it. I have no worries about Rocksteady but Knights is still a wild card for me.
I've been waiting years for XIV on Xbox! I cannot wait. Had it day one on PS3 and then on PS4. Haven't played for years though. Once Endwalker is finished and the story arc is done, a 'complete' edition on Xbox would be a thing of dreams π
As a side note, does anyone else have fond memories of Hidden & Dangerous and Conflict Desert Storm? Thinking back, I used to love tactical military shooters. Haven't played one in years and years.
Yep, very happy with that lineup. Aaero looks cool (very Rez like) Castlevania is well timed given that a lot of series fans (myself included) have a real buzz right now due to the GBA games coming out. And Code: Veronica is a stone cold classic and one of my favourite Resi games. I still remember the day it came out on Dreamcast, good times βΊοΈ
I still have the original collector's edition of Silent Hill 2 on PS2. Absolute masterpiece of a game and most certainly one of my favourite games of all time π
I'm away for the weekend so no Xbox for me. However, I will be spending 10hours overall on a train so I'll be playing some Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate π₯°
Played through the original twice, once pure stealth, the other pure mayhem π Loved every second too, fantastic game. The way the environment in the final mission changes depending on your previous actions was particularly cool.
It'll happen. Maybe not soon (certainly not soon) but it WILL happen.
I'm a massive fan of the series so cannot wait for when that announcement finally drops π
Working towards 100% on Forza 7. Play a bit of Psychonauts 2. See what FFXIII looks like on Series X. But I'm mostly playing Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate right now on 3DS π
@WillQuan @The_New_Butler I am not a football fan. At all. In fact, I've never watched a full game in my life. However, if anyone ever asks, I will always say that Arsenal are my favourite team. There are two reasons for this, Nick Hornby's book 'Fever Pitch' and the fact they sponsored the SEGA Dreamcast π
Oh I'm hyped. Like, really hyped π Halo means so much to me in many different ways. There's been some ups and downs for sure but I have every faith that they'll get it right this time. Hey, if Joe says it's good, it's good π
It's things like this that really make MS stand out these days. Not only are they updating our favourite old games, now they're updating our old Gamer tags?? It seems small but it's the mindset that makes it so impressive and makes us as Xbox gamers feel appreciated βΊοΈ

Re: Halo Infinite Short Film Expands On Lore Surrounding Master Chief
Incredible, absolutely incredible.
If they can make me feel like that after 3 mins, Infinite could have the best story in the series!

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With October 2021's Xbox Games With Gold?
Yep, very happy with that lineup.
Aaero looks cool (very Rez like)
Castlevania is well timed given that a lot of series fans (myself included) have a real buzz right now due to the GBA games coming out.
