When will people learn? Seriously. They keep touching fire and act equally surprised every time they get burned....

Hello everyone,...

Other than a slew of Nintendo titles that maybe hopefully will come down in price (the patient gamers’ bane), I have my eye on the next time Divinity: Original Sin 2 goes on sale. A friend who never plays anything other than WoW loved playing Larian’s newest with me and I’m trying to get her to pick this up. Pretty sure...

It has been a while since the last one. So…...

So I figured it’s about time I gave this game a shot....

I’ve been trying to finish this write-up for a while now but due to the combination of limited time and constantly changing thoughts about the game it was a rather difficult process. It should be good enough to communicate my feelings about D3 but get ready for a wall of text, lots of rambling and rough edges - sorry about...

Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old....

I played a fair bit of GTA Vice City back in the day round friends’ houses, but never played all the way through. Mostly just ran people over, got as many stars as possible and died. Don’t get me wrong… I had a blast… but recently thought I’d play through the whole thing....

I’m not sure if this counts as a “patient gamer” because I played them to death years ago…but I’ve been playing both again recently and they’re just perfect little games with a ton of replayability. They’re not retro (FTL 2012, ITB 2018) but they’re old enough to regularly go on sale which is great!...

So I finally got around to trying out Deliver Us Mars, having never played the predecessor but having a fair few friends rave about it (the previous game) being this rough but amazing gem....

I want to make a case for Saints Row IV: it is my go-to relaxing game. I have it installed on my PS4. The game has a GTA-esque setting and gameplay style, but where GTA is a clever satire of the real world, SR IV doesn’t concern itself with the limits of reality: in fact, You play as the President of the US (with super-powers)...

Alas, the live service, bane of the patient gamer....

TL;DR This game is still really funny with crude humor that mostly holds up and gameplay that doesn’t disappoint. Its showing some age but not enough to get in the way of the fun. If you’re a fan of movies from around the year 2001, this is a must play....

I picked up a Vita recently. So far, Gravity Rush is the only game that I definitely want to play. Any other recommendations? I’m pretty open with genres, as long as it’s something with a story.

Mirror’s Edge - This is a game I’ve been meaning to play for some time. A few years back I played the first couple of levels on a friend’s PS3 and recalled it being a fun experience. So when it went on sale for under £2 on Steam I couldn’t say no. It holds up exceptionally well for a game from 2008! The stylised...

So two-part question here:...

I’ve missed this series for a long time, and I’ll never forgive Epic for dropping it like a baby giraffe....

A friend of mine was a gamer many years ago but hasn’t been gaming in a while. They run a Mac and I run a PC. What are some good patient games we can play together?

This game is about to be 4 years old but i finally got around to playing it. I am floored by this game, i couldn’t put it down. I love the new combat style, the cut scenes are great how they just roll straight from the gameplay and back. The music, holy shit, the music. Every track is a banger and makes the fights and story...

See my Banjo-Kazooie review here...

What do you guys use? I personally like Glitchwave for it’s powerful chart building and the user reviews as a whole tend to align with my own....

It’s kind of sad that one of the greatest video game series is on hold for now....
