Whatcha all been playing?

I finished silent hill 2 and was quite happy with it. Overall some things I would have done differently but it was a really solid effort, and I think a great way to play the game if you havent before.

Also played through the Alan wake 2 lake house dlc. It was pretty good. Lore and writing was too notch as usual, but the combat I found to be pretty frustrating. A good time though. Took me about 2 hours

I’m also back on the UFO 50 grind. Cherried rail heist and I’m onto playing vainger!

    I finished Silent Hill 2 too, the Mannequins made me jump so many times. They always seemed to appear when I least expected them to. The game created such a tense and scary atmosphere the whole way through but the prison area was by far the spookiest and of course I didn’t understand the hanging part and kept getting punished for it lol.

    I also played The Last of Us Part 1 it was no where near as scary but the story was so good, I even cried a bit. I’d love more games that focused on keeping quiet, I dont think I’ve played anything with that sort of mechanic before. I really hope they port part 2 to pc soon.

    I tried to play Alien Isolation but I kept getting game breaking bugs and when I finally managed to get about an hour in, there were still no aliens?? Just more bugs so I’ve given up on it and maybe I’ll try see if there are any fixes and stuff when I have more time since so many people recommend it.

      I tried the gamepass and PS5 version and ran into the same game breaker. It is such a shame since it is supposed to be fantastic.

        Ah damn, its an issue on console too, that sucks. I wonder why there are so many recommendations when its so broken. I can’t believe its on gamepass and PS5 when it can so easily be broken in less than 5 minutes

          Somehow replied to my own comment. Good thing I am actively drinking coffee. Yeah, although it makes me wonder if the game pass version isn’t basically the console version. They do some weird stuff with required windows processes.
