    I'm sorry but that line my face is tired is stupid, what does that even mean. If she just said she's  tired that would make sense, but not that. It's hilarious, but silly :joy:

    Well @sjsharp2010 is going to love this. I bought Mass Effect Andromeda, mainly because @RevolvingPrawn kept badgering me to get it :joy: And it has to be said, actually playing it, the issues have been blown out of proportion. The game isn't perfect, but the game play is great. I always thought gun play in the previous games was the weakest point,  but in this it's awesome.  The graphics are stunning, why this doesn't come over in videos I don't know. But near the start when you get in a shuttle to go to a planet, it's some of the best graphics I have ever seen on PC. I'm not even running max settings, yet it still looks stunning.  Some of the voice acting can be a bit bland, but the videos I've watched don't paint it in  good or fair light.  There's only one character that has made me want to punch my monitor, my face is tired lady :joy: I don't think it's possible for her face to look tired, as she's clearly had botox. So except from her it's been great.

    We played F1 for over 5 hours last night. Every single race something bad happened to me or Dave. I'd say the most hilarious was when I got a twitch in my thumb and steered myself into a wall :joy:

    Thinking about getting Nier myself after watching Jim's videos and reading reviews.

    That's what @RevolvingPrawn and I are doing tomorrow night, on PC though.

    Well you are as 3 or 4 people don't make a game. Hundreds do, and none of them have ever made a Mass Effect game, so yes it's a different team who have no experience making the game, I'm not sure how that's not factually correct. This is getting boring so let's end it.

    There's like 3 people from the main studio that worked on previous games, so yes you are wrong ;) This team have never worked on a game before, only supported, so I'm not sure why you keep saying it's the same people.

    As someone just informed me, it's not even the same studio that made the last 3 games, so you are wrong. So it's not surprising it's such a mess.  https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/5zr62t/psa_mass_effect_andromeda_and_the_original_mass/

    Every single Point RPS make is true though, it's a rushed and unfinished game. Even EA wanted them to delay it, which says it all really. We all know your obsession with the series, so you will never believe criticism. So many of the people that made Bioware a good developer have left, so it's no surprise this game is a mess.

    I'll just leave this here. Seems Bioware should have taken the 5 month delay EA offered them....  https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2017/03/20/mass-effect-andromeda-review/#more-436013

    Another game people rave about, Terraria, I just bought and love it. Well I actually got it for free as I sold a load of Steam cards that I have no use for as I couldn't care less about social stuff, Steam is just about gaming for me.

    Just completed Shovel Knight (the main game) what a fun and challenging game, it took me  good 12 hours, so it's already longer than full priced AAA games.  Now to play the expansions  :D

    My screen protector finally arrived for my Nintendo Switch, still annoyed that I didn't buy one before using it. But at least the scratch isn't  noticeable in most situations while playing. Seriously bad design from Nintendo with the dock, especially as a lot of kids will own one.

    I would have probably bought it after reading reviews, but I just spent £160 fixing a tooth. The only upside to it was my dentist is a hot Brazilian with a lush accent :joy:

    @couger1981 I wasn't going to mention that it, because at the time I was really enjoying the game, but I did come to the same conclusion as you in the end  :# Especially once I read what happens at the end of it :joy: The annotations in MEA though :joy:  https://twitter.com/Nibellion/status/842303004116172800

    It's not the size of the world I care about, it's what's in them. A big open world is pointless if 80% of it is bland with nothing to do or see. Zelda for instance has a big beautiful world, but it's full of secrets and stuff to do.  So many games use the term open world, and quite often it hurts the game. If you can't fill a world with interesting secrets and amazing looking stuff, you should go more linear. At least then you can focus a lot more on level design. We will see soon enough though, hopefully for your sake it's great,  as I know you've been looking forward to it for a a long time.

    I've seen some negative stuff about MEA. It seems like it's yet another game that has gone open world because it's a great buzz word, then forgot to fill it with interesting stuff. I hope it's not as bad as some of the stuff I've read. It's also not optimised very well, it looks a lot worse than Battlefield, but also runs a lot worse. Mind you DAI was the same, so I guessed this would be the same.  I loved the first 3, but Bioware haven't been on top form, so I didn't pre order the game.

    Wow I have logged 70 hours in Zelda so far  :o EDIT: I wanted something other to play, so I bought Shovel Knight Treasure Trove, and I'm so glad I did. Yea it's retro graphics from my childhood(well except it's not being played on a extremely low res TV,)  but game play wise it's brilliant. After my previous post I assume nobody here has played it. It seems the reviews were right to gush over it. I'm kinda glad I never bought it on anything else, as the Switch is perfect for it.

    Anyone here played Shovel Knight? I'm thinking about buying the full package on Nintendo Switch. It harps back to my youth in terms of game play and graphics, so I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy it. For those that bought the original Game got all the expansions for free which is cool, so they seem like a decent developer. They aren't free for me, but rewarding original players is cool.

    I was playing that a few weeks ago and loved it. Strangely I didn't like the original Gamecube version, mind you they did add some features that made it less frustrating compared to the original.
