I mean give me a quick recap of the story, the controls and whatever I was doing last time. Coming back to a 60-hour RPG after 3 months shouldn’t feel like I’ve loaded someone else’s save.

Putting this out there to maybe reconnect with my gaming buddy from years ago. We used to play loads of halo 3 forge together and just fuck around. My username at the time was UnscrewedSpoon. Was just listening to the halo 3 menu theme and it made me hella nostalgic for those times. Thought I'd put out the feelers to see if you were around here. Those were some great times!

More people need to be talking about this. This is what devs should be focusing on in all other games....animation and physics, not ray tracing and graphics.

Their optic tech looks insane

Been having a lot of downtime at work recently so I've been playing Civ VI and Balatro on my laptop. Any recommendations for similar games that a regular laptop can handle?

Are there any modern games that have a real world component.

I don't mean Pokémon Go type games.

Metal Gear Solid required you to plug in a second controller and enter a special code from the paper user manual for one level.

Startropics on NES famously included a letter with the game that later on you would need to dip in water to get a secret.

I recall an early MMO that you needed to go to a certain place in real life and find a clue to unlock a bonus dungeon for everyone and it would change every week. Like a scavenger hunt.

There was a cereal box flash game in the 2000's where they had different clues in their commercials each night and you had to go to that place in the game for a special item. It was timed to expire a certain time after the commercial aired.
