Anyone played baldurs gate 3? Strong reviews. Thinking of picking it up next week.

Not yet but heard good things, might look to pick it up when my backlog dies down a little.

Still slowly but doggedly ploughing through Lies of P.

It's fun, but don't believe all the hype... It's still a standard RPG type game, it's very glossy and some of the stuff you do is fun, it's enjoyable and engaging, but it is nowhere near the massive leap that some reviews would have you believe.

Does anyone ever get an urge to play an old game that you loved years ago. Load it up, and you feel disappointment that it's aged terribly and it's no where near as good as you recalled?

Bought theme hospital for £1.70 for some nostalgia, theme park was/is the same price on GOG currently.

Except it is as good as I remember.

I need to give the Two Point Hospital a go. I loved Theme Hospital.

The game in question was Black on PS2, which I still have. Set it all up, knowing it wasn't going to be anywhere near today's games, obviously, but it still underwhelmed me, sadly.

It was a fantastic game when it came out. Hours of fun.

That's just getting old Josh.

Nothing is as good as you remember.

I really don't understand the whole playing old games thing. I used to love my Amiga, probably wouldn't be in the line of work I am in now if it wasn't for that (and it was well ahead of its time). As such I sometimes get a yearning for the old days, and go and find an emulator, 20 minutes later I'm wondering why I did! Same with old games for me, I just don't get the appeal when things have moved on so much (well apart from Starfield which is well and truly an old game)

Personally I'd be happy if all new consoles DID NOT have backwards compatibility, I wish they'd stop holding them back to allow old games to run.

I rarely play a game more than once or twice.

Pretty much the same here, except for No Mans Sky, I don't know what it is about that game, but it just pulls me back time and time again... Then again I guess each update kind of makes it a new version?

Been a few games I've replayed recently to get unlockables and play around with weapons like RE village and TLOU2, but I only played each uncharted once even though I really enjoyed them.
