Rodders Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Lockdown has really got me playing the PS3 a bit more - although as I was never a regularplayer, I only have Assassins Creed Games ( I,2 and Revelations ). I did buy that retro Sega collection thing but after 20 minutes of nostalgia, it's unplayably shit trying to enjoy Sonic or Alex Kidd nowadays. In need of new ones, I've ordered AC III and black Flag to fill that fix, but some variety won't go amiss. I've added Red Dead Redemption and a Call of Duty Game ( 4: Modern Warfare ) into the shopping basket for now as they seem to be well received. Are there games similar to Timesplitters or Medal of Honor which I remember loving on the PS2 out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubbs Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 So how many times do I have to try and kill the Blood Starved Beast in Bloodborne?? At least a dozen attempts now. YouTube suggests it's easy, I beg to differ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante_Lockhart Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 WWE2K19 and FIFA20 mainly at the moment. Spent the lockdown going through my trophy hunt and ended up enjoying these a fair bit (WWE especially once I’d turned down the AI reversal sliders) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilko154 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Finished Uncharted 3, it was brilliant. Now onto Uncharted 4 which looks like a step up with it being PS3 to PS4. So far so good! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weak to fire so use fire paper if you have it and make sure you've got antidotes ready. It's an annoying boss, but exploitable. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there's Little Big planet, orange box, the dead space games, resistance, killzone 2 and 3, the ratchet and clank games 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubbs Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Finally killed the blood starved beast yesterday. The dodge to the left worked quite well as did using molotovs at the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted May 16, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted May 16, 2020 I'm playing mostly Soulsborne games at the moment. NG+ On 1 and 2 and still on first playthrough on DS3. Haven't been into a series of games so much for ages. Good job I've got more time on my hands at the moment with being furloughed - thanks BoJo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those curious which UbiSoft games sold 10+ million this generation; Assassin's Creed: Unity Assassin's Creed: Origins Assassin's Creed: Odyssey Far Cry 4 Far Cry 5 Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege Tom Clancy's The Division Tom Clancy's The Division 2 Watch_Dogs Watch_Dogs 2 To me UbiSoft games are only fun if I'm in the right frame of mind. If I'm in the mood to play through a checklist of content then I'll always load up an UbiSoft game, but if I'm not feeling it then they are some of most boring games on the planet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point it's the only one of the Soulsborne series I've not finished (besides Demon Souls), and I've platinumed the other 2 Souls games. Just can't quite click with it as much as the others. I've still got a decent chunk of it done mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assassin's Creed Origins was brilliant, yet to play Odyssey. Far Cry 4 is one of my favourite games, Far Cry 5 was good but it wasn't as good as it could have been. For me Watch Dogs and The Division are games I just couldn't get into. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like Bloodborne you'll be pretty comfortable with the DS games (they are amazing btw). More shield, no gun and more defensive play basically Edited May 16, 2020 by Designer1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
