I really like Red Dead Redemption, I'd love to be able to play the sequel but no PC support, bummer. Though it is Rockstar so they may release it for PC in a few years if we're lucky.

Been playing the new world of Warcraft expansion. Pretty fun so far.

I could never wrap my head around WoW. It's not a bad game, but I could never get too far into it.

I've been playing original Half-Life. Even after 20 years, it still blows me away. Developers just don't do single-player like that anymore. I'm at the "Xen" levels, which is where I always seem to lose interest. The Xen portion just kills the immersion for me. I think that is why I liked "Opposing Force" more. Less time on Xen.

I am also going to check out "Black Mesa" at some point. It is a recreation of Half Life 1 done in the Source engine. They are still working on the Xen levels, but I'll take a flyer for $20.

There is also a single player mod called "Echoes". It has been getting high praise, but I find the creator's mapping style to be a little "busy".

And for the creative side, I grabbed the Hammer Editor, so I could try and hack out a HL map of my own.

Cannot wait for Red dead 2.

Been playing madden 19 lately, I’d call it a healthy improvement and certainly for ultimate team.

Also got into the black ops 4 beta, they changed a lot from the status quo. Looking forward to a hardcore mode, but I don’t expect it to be another blops 1 or blops 2.

These just came onto my radar today, WANT.

3/4 size arcade machine with 4 games for $299. Likely hackable for a bigger collection. Eyes set on the rampage cabinet.

I have a hard time making a dedicated time frame for weekly league racing these days, life just gets in the way it seems. But I found this on Reddit, and thought some of you guys might be interested. It's a weekly hot lap challenge, and it's open to consoles and PC alike using various simcade/sim titles so everyone has a shot at it. Bear in mind, third party mod cars and tracks are not allowed for the PC guys to keep it a level playing field.

Here's a link to this weeks challenge in r/simracing

And here are the rules and guidelines

New lap challenges are up, and man there's some good combos this week! Sorry I didn't realize when I posted it yesterday that it ended at midnight UTC. That has now been extended to 5AM UTC for people on the west coast.

Hell Yes!!! Hopefully it has VR support like the first one did. Still the most intense VR experience I've had to date. Such a great damn game!

[Topher Builds]

F yeah!! That’s awesome the rain and mud look fantastic.

I hope they incorporate some of the newer nitro rallycross events that Travis Pastrana has designed. They are insane!

[hpiguy]

^^Doubt any of that will be in there, as Dirty Rally has always been a pure WRC sim title. Things like that are more for the regular Dirt series.

New Cod out in 12 days, any COD fans here?

Pre FO76; FO3 on PS3.

Oh, the horror.



Check out the new merch, so cool.

[hpiguy]

No COD, hate the whole series and most FPS to be honest. Not sure on Fallout yet, but never finished 4 yet. Waiting for the VR version to go on sale to finish it.

I lost interest in COD after "#4: Modern Warfare". I tend to be a slow player in SP games, and I finished the SP campaign in about 6 hours. I soooo wanted my money back.

[hpiguy]

I don't think they even do a SP campaign at all anymore, do they? I've been a big fan of the Sniper Elite series for the SP campaign.

These days, it seems like SP is an afterthought and multi-player gets all the attention.

Has anyone picked up Forza Horizon 4? I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Would be cool to play together with people from the community if someone else owns it.

I downloaded the demo and gave it a try. But, it's literally unplayable with a wheel. The physics and FFB are just terrible. I miss the Forza series, but since they have shown that they have no intention of ever putting any resources towards proper wheel support, then I'll simply vote with my wallet by not buying their games.
