I pre-ordered also. I love the home screen skin it comes with. It’s so relaxing.

I went with the basic edition. Paying an additional €20 for a steel case seemed silly.

[Das]

Went for the digital deluxe one. Would have bought the add ons later anyway.

@LabouredSubterfuge Will you try Forza 6 beta on PC or are you not bothered?

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Not sure, may wait for final version and see.

Stellaris, Paradox’s new 4X grand strategy game, is out today. If I wasn’t getting Uncharted 4 tomorrow then I would be installing it now.

[John]

I really want to play it. It looks very inviting and a good entry into Paradox strategy games.

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Tried it.

It’s prettay prettay good. Very accomplished port too.

I’ll definitely be getting Forza 7 on PC on the basis of this.

What type of controller did you use?

[Das]

Nice.

From what I can see the lighting looks more natural and less flat.

What if Nanako was an ancient bronze dragon from the past? And the future? At the same time?

Playing on Xbox maybe?

Eurogmer: Doom review

<br

Doom’s superb campaign makes up for underwhelming multiplayer in id Software’s remarkable comeback.

Save for Warpath, then, the multiplayer is a malnourished appendage, grafted on for the sake of feature parity with the reigning champions of the genre Doom created. But that isn’t enough to sully the campaign’s lustre. Capacious, beautiful, brainy and barbaric, Doom’s return could be this year’s most unexpected triumph, largely because it’s the work of people who understand that every reboot is a work of both love and hatred, in which creators fight against the pull of the subject matter. It’s not enough to summon and confront the devil. You also have to exorcise the creature, to put the past firmly in its place. The Doom of 2016 hasn’t rendered the Doom of 1993 surplus to requirements - that would take sorcery indeed - but id has finally managed to escape its gravity.

Not as strong or in depth as his other videos since he seems to have turned this up on his knee while watching the credits or something but still pretty up to the standard set by his other videos and well worth a watch.

Great intro too.

[Das]

How can you listen to that for 25 minutes?

Resident Evil 7 is in development and will be announced at E3 in Los Angeles next month, according to Dr. Serkan Toto, CEO of Tokyo-based games industry consultancy Kantan Games.

Toto describes the game as a “clean slate,” returning to the series’ horror roots. The team developing it is reported to have hired Jordan Amaro, a designer who previously worked on Metal Gear Solid V and P.T.

Well that’s interesting. Resident Evil could use a shakeup, similar to what they did to RE4.
