Fall Ball's become my most unenjoyable minigame. It's started to appear almost every round and somehow every round I get eliminated there. Like our team has no chance. 10-0, 6-0, 5-1, 5-0 etc. What a buzzkill. I mean I know I sucked at football in school, but even still in videogames?

After 16 months we finally got a new tournament suddenly, cool! Fight Crab was pure chaos with some good chuckles. :D I updated the first post's list.

@dipset said in That's News!:

Is there interest in a Halo Infinite / Halo tread around here? I've been playing Halo 3 on MCC and wouldn't mind talking about it a bit. Can't say that I have much positive to say about Halo these days, but damn I'm loving Halo 3.

Please create one. Or even two, one for the console itself as well. I'm surprised there isn't one.

And not even Switch has a thread here which boggles my mind. All Nintendo stuff gets handled basically in this thread or something.

That's rough! Too bad this pretty much also cemented @elitefusion's win already in August. :/

Come on people, this has been open for a month now. What gives?

These team-based games are killing me. Like I've been eliminated now five times in a row at those. Three times in Egg Hunt, hate it. This game can be brutal.

Just spent 2,5 hrs with the beta, completed the story missions with Kamala and Hulk and now it said that you're welcome to try out different War Zones around the globe.

I think this might be my Destiny. I think it will. There's no way this game's for everyone, but I was pleasantly surprised right away by the impact of Thor's hammer strikes. I mean I've said it before: I'd settle for a new Ultimate Alliance, but this goes beyond that (except for the roster size, clearly). That Chimera helicarrier will function as your base of operations and it'll be neat to see it come back to live. All those cardboard boxes and trash will move out, I expect, as the story moves forward. Most likely SHIELD personel will emerge there as well.

The two story missions with Hulk and Kamala sparked enough something for me. Like, they're putting the band back together, that classic trope. I'm in! Little by little searching for the team mates. Now they were after JARVIS and then Tony. A few cool moments already.

The missions/levels were full of caches that had all sorts of resources, like around ten different kinds at least. When I get my hands on the main game I'll be sure to search for every nook and cranny. Now it was all too overwhelming all at once to get a good grasp about all of those.

Initially after the A-Day mission I thought that Cap might be my favourite (which he still could be, really liked his move sets and stance) maybe along Black Widow, but after playing more with Hulk and Kamala those two worked just fine as well. In the HARM room I got to be Iron Man and with that tutorial I appreciated him much more than on that bridge in the beginning.

At times the action slowed down a bit which made me think about how I'll definitely move on to PS5 then with the game. And just in general this is clearly a long process, an evolving one. Never been a part of any Destiny style game, a living game so to speak, but this could very well be the one for me. It doesn't feel 10/10, or even 9/10, but there's nothing wrong with that as long as you know what you're getting into. This beta is something to try out, it'll definitely reveal the game's face to you.

After the tight-lipped silence of the few past years Rocksteady has finally revealed their upcoming game: it's Suicide Squad!
The more concrete official reveal will happen on August 22nd at DC FanDome.

A bit off-topic, but I'm picturing Fall Guys getting a good bunch of HMs for the 2020 GOTY vote in five months or so.

And cool that this huge project is finally moving to its next stage! People, you can still vote! Please do.

This was pretty nice, a little bit of everything. Crash 4 started to pique my interest, I thought it looked cool. Playable Dingodile and that black-and-white world with paint mechanics were my favourites.

Aeon Must Die looked really interesting, that aesthetic together with the music spoke to me. But was it a beat 'em up or a turn-based combat game? The genre stayed kind of hidden still.

Godfall just doesn't do it for me. And neither for the Allies, that was clear. The game's soul is missing. And the notes about the lack of impact were on spot. And the comparisons to God of War which does that so well, the combat.
