I bet @BigStar would approve of video games featuring It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia crossovers...

;)

Speaking of the video game Apex Legends, here's a humorous fail video of that game:

Man, I was SO hooked on Apex Legends there for awhile. It was awesome when it first released. Last time I played it I felt like I wasn't having as much fun. Could have just been that I wasn't big on the new map at the time.

Looking for something to play and forgot I have the Uncharted collection on my PS4. Started that like 2 days ago. Beat Uncharted: Drake's Fortune already. LOL! That game made an interesting turn at the end from treasure hunting to resident evil. I wasn't expecting that!! :eek: On the game it will pop up your stats vs people that have played the game on your friend list. I was trying to beat @BigStar and his 7 headshots in a row but couldn't get it done.:p

Started in on Uncharted 2. I really enjoy these games. What's funny too is that I played and beat Uncharted 4 several years ago, so, this gives me a chance to start at the beginning and work my way up (thought I'm not sure I will replay Uncharted 4. That was a LONG game).

Gotta say I'm enjoying the lack of loading times on the Series X. Don't have too many made for Series X games yet outside of Madden and Forza Horizons but the games overall do look crisper.
Guess it's that upscaling/ray tracing
Probably didn't need to upgrade when I did but the opportunity came up to pay msrp.

One of my favorite games of all time, Rome Total War from 2004 is getting the remastered treatment and being released in a couple weeks.

I think I spent more hours playing this game than any other.
Love the game to this day.
Also looking forward to this. April 29th i think.

Whenever i play campiagn my new family member generals always get mildly extravagant trait at some point. There is supposed to be a command to be able to remove this trait but i was never able to get it to work.

I give all the armys and navys of other countries a boost in exp/hp/weapons stats, try to make the battles more intense but it can be overkill if you play on the high/highest difficulty.

I hope i will be able to tweak the remastered version aswell.

Looking forward to this, haven't played RTW in a good 10 years. Someone was kind enough to give me a Steam key for the original which gives me, and anyone else who has it in their library a 50% discount making it 14.99.

Uncharted is pretty much the only franchise after SNES days where I've beaten almost every game multiple times. 2 was easily my favorite, didnt play 4 until last year even after owning it since launch. 4 was very solid but there was an element lacking from previous games I don't want to spoil. Sadly I believe we will never get another great, well written Uncharted game due to the lead at Naughty Dog.

If you havent at least play the first The Last of Us, another masterpiece. Cannot say the same for the sequel

I would agree with you that 2 has been the best so far for me. To be fair, I just barely started 3 yesterday, but from what I've seen I like 2 the best. Fantastic games all around though. I actually have never played The Last of Us but it is firmly planted on my to-do list as I've heard nothing but good about it.

Slammed...that is amazing you've never played that game. When the game first came out I used to travel A LOT, and I always packed my PS3 and a small HDTV monitor everywhere I went just so I could play that game. I still play it every year or so. I've yet to play the sequel because I have such a vested interest in the original and I've read the spoilers of it and I don't know if I can get the game its due because of the storyline of the sequel.

My only journey into the Uncharted series is "4" and I really enjoyed it. I thought there wouldn't be any replayability in it, but as I look back on it I will probably give it another go. I do have Uncharted 3 from my PSN streaming qu'ed up, and if I get time (slim to none) I will start it.

Yeah I think that game dropped in, like, 2013? I was an Xbox homer up until about 2016. Wanted nothing to do with a PlayStation. lol Now that I have matured and just enjoy gaming as a whole, I own a PS4 Pro (and will get a PS5 eventually). I got my PS4 Pro in 2016, so I was already way late to the game on so many Sony exclusives. I just never got around to most of them and have been playing catch up.

Quick backstory on how I finally bought a PlayStation. My buddy brought over his new PSVR and was showing it off to me. I was enamored by it! Had to have it. Went straight out that week and picked up a PS4 Pro, and at the time, the PSVR was pretty new and not readily available. So, I WAY overpaid for the stupid thing on eBay, and away we went. Now the PSVR sits most of the time but I do really enjoy having a PlayStation to have access to a wider selection of games. It's nice being able to jump back and forth between consoles depending on my mood. :D

Well guys I'm back to playing Socom and Warhawk on ps3. Some small team of individuals managed to allow us to connect to the disconnected servers and we have a couple hundred people playing in non-prime hours which is amazing. Back when these games were out you would see 50,00-100,000 active on Socom, don't remember prime numbers for Warhawk, but it was probably less than that.
