All ARs are Gilded, with I think at least 2 out of 6 Forged. Saving a few so I can go back to using them after doing other guns. Swarm SMG Gilded, Striker is nearly there (kills under your tactical impact are a killer though!). Battle Rifles all Gilded. Sidewinder and MCZ are Forged so just BAS-B to do so they are all pretty much done! Gonna look at LMGs I reckon, although I need to check if there is any secondary knife ones to do at all because clearly a few maps are hilarious to use the knife (aren't they Matt @Luseth *cough cough* 🤣). Really enjoying doing these camp challenges whilst trying to play the objective and get the win for FG. I don't mind that its a slower progress for me, although its far quicker than MW2 challenges thats for sure!

Beat Lies of P last night, the first souls like I have ever beaten! I’ve tried Bloodborne, Sekiro, Demon Souls and Mortal Shell in the past but gave up with all of them pretty early on! I persevered with this game as I loved the setting and the idea for the story, and I’m glad I did as I ended up loving it! I thought the combat was fantastic and particularly liked the mechanic where successfully parrying could break the enemy weapon! However, I found the Legion arm to be mostly useless, and felt like using any larger weapons put you at a massive disadvantage which meant I didn’t experiment with weapons as much as I would have liked! The visuals and audio design were great though and the story was interesting and more “in your face” than the other souls games, but I would still have liked the story to take more of a central part of the game. Overall, really enjoyed the game and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys souls games. I gave it a score of 8.4 on my instagram where I usually post my reviews! I enjoyed it so much that I’m actually considering going back and trying Bloodborne or Demon Souls again?! Anyone else beaten this that thinks I’m crazy or think it deserves more than 8.4?

Yes a decent month to start 2024! I loved A Plague Tale Réquiem! Nobody saves the world was decent but have never tried Evil West! Hopefully the rest of 2024 will have lineups like this … 🤣

Mitch said the same thing last night in the party about the campaign being rubbish... Shame really.

Spider-Man 2 Diablo IV Teardown Hogwarts Legacy Final Fantasy XVI I don't know if Teardown was out on PC last year or not but I only played about 5 new games 😂

I dont think I payed 5 new games this year😂 and the ones I did play wouldn’t make the list except for Spider-Man 2

This project is going from strength to strength. All community made and free, which is pretty incredible these days. I totally support what they're doing here, what a great example of what ppl can do together.

Got this installed via Gamepass so will give it a go this weekend probably

I don't know if there's a concerted effort by the Woolwich nomads to take over this forum but you better believe I ain't having it 🤪 Welcome to FG mate 🙂 COYS

I havent completed it yet, will go back at one point. You should really give Bloodborne another go! Demon Souls was not my cup pf tea. So you havent played Elden Ring or Dark Souls? Dark Souls 3 that is. The others are too old and slow. Bloodborne was the first I beat. Wo Long is pretty good too!

Ok month for January. Evil West was crap IMO, but the other games are decent.

Thanks for the nominations so far everyone! We have a good selection of games already, but I will leave the nomination process open until the 28th to give a few more days for people to nominate if they would like to! Have a fantastic Christmas for all those who celebrate!

Hey there, I was looking for a UK-based gaming community until I stumbled upon FG. I'm a very casual PC gamer now apart from the Christmas holidays when I get to hibernate for a couple of weeks. Usually play competitive games like LoL, COD etc. Played very hardcore back in the day especially WoW and Rainbow Six Siege. Just looking for some mature friendly people to share some games with online. Always enjoy a more organised coordinated approach to my competitive games (as well as just some laughs and giggles). I'm a pretty private person so won't say much more but look forward to getting to know some of you over voice comms at some point. Also a lifelong MMA and Arsenal fan so hit me up for any sports chat.

This may be the most popular game out right now. Costs just £8.50 on Steam and is a sci-fi co-op horror game about scavenging moons and bases. 98% positive on Steam with 85,000 reviews and despite only 4,000 people playing last month, in November it's been up to 184,000 which is a huge blow-up - probably not quite on Among us levels but it's definitely gaining huge traction.

If you read the previous Game of the Year topic, you’ll know I’ve been planning this for a week or so! It’s time to start the process and determine the nominees! Everyone, please respond in this topic with the 5 games you want to nominate for Game of the Year! The only rule is that the game must have originally released in the year 2023 (e.g. if the game released on another console in 2022, but came to your console in 2023, this would not be eligible). I will ‘Stop the count’ on Christmas Day. I will then open a poll after the Christmas break (hopefully the 29th/30th) with all the nominated games. We have a maximum entry of 20 games, so the games with the least amount of nominations will have to miss out if we have more than 20 nominated! So be sure to nominate the our favourite games even if you’ve seen someone else nominate it! I will post more about the poll voting process when that time is nearer, but for now reply to this post with your 5 nominations (or less if you haven’t played 5 games worthy of nomination!!) If you can share this with as many different members as possible to make this is varied as a true representation of the Forever Gaming community! I will start the process with my 5 nominations in no particular order: - Lies of P - Spider-Man 2 - Star Wars Jedi Survivor - Sea of Stars - Starfield (A lot of ‘stars’ this year …)

Close to 30 hrs. Its worth it IMO

I like the idea - although would love more to get involved too so FC24 could be played on different nights whenever people wanted to, rather than just MNF. Separate question that is though 😄

Class finish - shame it was in the wrong goal 🤣🤣🤣 Great thread @tronic44!

Ted Hankey. Absolutely off the rails. And a nonce too now 🙈

Insane goal! And I was actually proud of the 'fail jump' as I do that all the time lol. Never gonna score a goal like that, nice man.

I really find this hard from my angle as I'm in the boat where Phil is on games released not in this year. I've also been more interested in others thoughts than my own as it dictates what I buy next. Having said all this, one game i played stood out from all the rest, so much so it was my 3rd highest played game this year - Hogwarts Legacy. Superb game, loved everything about it. Gameplay is super sharp and so enjoyable. My list is probably the below: Hogwarts Legacy Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Diablo 4 Street Fighter 6 Payday 3

Hopefully this Saturday I can delete the ps4 version. Have to say the campaign is dog shit worst one in recent years but on the flip side veteran difficulty is pretty hard actually found it challenging. Still haven't a clue why the ps4 version is a stand alone and the ps5 is more like a DLC.

Must've gone 20+ games unbeaten last night which was fun!

Well done for completing it @WelchyTV 😄. My son still hasn't started it, not sure why as he seemed to get into Lords of the Fallen more first and now hes moved on to his PSVR again for abit. I'm sure once he starts it, as he enjous these games, he'll probably say its up there. I think most people still see Bloodborne up there as the one to challenge this title score wise...its making me thing 2024 I should go back and try and finish a souls like game like that!

Hmm. I may pick this up for iOS. Just to have for shits and giggles on the road.

GTA Definitive Edition has arrived on mobile and it's actually better than the current gen versions. Dare I say it actually looks good with far better colours and lighting and much more in-line with the originals

Pistols, marksman and battle rifles and that emp gun oh and the knives 12 more and I can move onto priceless. Tbh with all the active double xp it's easy to rank stuff up at the moment.

Episode 77 is LIVE!!! It's our 2023 Dice to Pixels awards, and What were the favorites we played throughout the year.

I've played the new version and it's excellent, will have to try and pull a few others in

I didn't mind the film. It followed the source material pretty closely with a few changes here and there. I personally prefer the graphic novel, as there's a lot in there that immerses you into the world, like reading the comic within the comic, or excerpts from the original Night Owls biography. Just little things like that. Alan Moore is just nuts with the details.

This one just released on Xbox Series X, PS5, and has been in early access on PC for a bit. A rouge-lite that's giving me some Metroid Dread vibes. My kind of game.

I've been making my way through this when @Rumelylady isn't cleaning a playground on Powerwash Sim, and it's been pretty decent so far. I like all the case boards, and connecting the dots with crimes. Wake has a writer's board that functions similarly but allows him to "change the story" which essentially shifts the environments to get further. Visually, it looks amazing from top to bottom. They do an excellent job utilizing light sources that boarders on damn near realistic. I also dig the real-life cinematics throughout the game so far. Remedy knows their shit when it comes to that. The voice acting is great as usual. So far so good.

Big update from this impressive project. Free to PC players 🙂

Yeah I'd say 90% of Warhammer video games are shite, although the original Space Marine is excellent imo. And Deathwing could have been a fantastic game with a little more polish. Latest ones have been much better, eg Vermintide and Darktide, plus Rogue Trader is supposed to be decent too from what I hear.

Ever since San Andreas or Liberty City, I just feel like these games have got 'too big'...does that make sense? Obviously some of them in the past have just had poor story lines etc but for me GTA5 was just fucking massive and I really struggled to follow the story line of the three characters. Like is it a sandbox or not etc. They always make a good game to be fair but for me I just can't get behind the hype anymore because it just feels like the game has to be huge with lots of complicated mechanics now to warrant the dev time. I'm an old man, I like my old fashioned top down original GTA where the most pressing thing I had to do in a game was run over the Hari Krishna's at the start of each level 😀

- Resident Evil 4 - Alan Wake 2 - Dredge - Zelda Tears of the Kingdom - Baldur's Gate 3

1: Baldurs gate 3 2: Fire emblem engage 3: Hogwarts legacy 4: Spiderman 2 5: Marvel midnight suns

This chap's content is always top notch, his STALKER vids are well worth a watch too

Delayed, not a problem, just make it good 🙂

Hell yea! That golf game was better than most PGA releases. Lol

Just because there have been versions etc is irrelevant the new ghost also just needs a tweek, this new vest is in simply to slow down the game and aid people of no real skill get easy kills, imo it was fixed years ago and should never have been reinstated. The choice then is wether to move or hope you don't get pinged by the uav that are constantly being taken down by all the turrets.

The Bas-B has to be the best gun in the game. It absolutely melts!

Updated Squad Numbers & Player Names 5 — The Mac @Macca89 25 — James Lacellés @𝙇𝙕𝙔 11 — Luseth Luseth @Luseth 9 — Club Tropicana @GazzaGarratt 8 — Jordie Scott @jordie1892 13 — Roberto Barlos @Findmartin 67 — Hesa Klakman @Antpool84 31 — Winky Woo @LordBaguette 69 — Consuéla de Krusti @JamaicanSteve 7 — Kriess Gdawg @KriessG

It's still in early access and is online co-op which is the only reason I've held off. Looks great though.

Doom on a PC

Yah, I was working for ATI at the time and playing games on the Graphic cards that I designed was part of the job description. I remember us doing all sorts of stuff to get it to work on the MACH32 That really makes me feel old

I said Goldeneye on the N64 in chat the other night but DOOM is probably my earliest FPS. Though both were played on other peoples computers / consoles. I think my first FPS was probably Battlefield 1942 as I can't think of any earlier than that.
