Been trying out XDefiant and it's a pretty cool game, seems to be a mix of COD and other FPS games. Plays pretty well and runs well on my PC. (also it's crossplatform) so always fun. Wish it was on steam though
#Steam has a tag for retro-styled #FPS games 'boomer shooters', and WHAT?? Do they mean boomers as in the generation? Boomers were not playing #Doom, etc. It was GenX gamers! I know, I was there!
@gamingonlinux I don't usually buy early access games but this one looks to be worth it in its current state. Loved the demo and it ran well on the Steam Deck. I've bought it and can't wait to play it!
#Crysis Remastered was kinda only Decent, got interesting at the end but should have done so earlier IMO.
I gotta give it this though, having the player physically shove down the control rods in a melting down nuclear reactor is a great way to showcase "badass protag + crazy strong armor/body"
Sorta like the opposite of MGS4's microwave hallway
32 years ago today on May 5 1992, one of the greatest games of all time (and forever my favorite first person shooter), Wolfenstein 3D, was released. I wrote about it for the list of 20 video games I can't stop thinking about (https://spacetimetech.wordpress.com/2024/04/06/20-video-games-i-cant-stop-thinking-about). I still play it regularly. Sometimes weekly. Killing digital Nazis is always fun and therapeutic.
@synlogic nice! Oh wow and yeah recently saw that original version - so wild. Had no idea. The evolution of it all is so cool, and now the Wolf games are so polished haha. I just love that old blocky look though 😂
