I think i came across the Tetris Attack style game with Super Puzzle Fighter. I'll have to play the original sometime and that Pokemon Puzzle League. I didn't know it was a Tetris Attack style game.
I was looking for a racing game I liked since Burnout Revenge when I was given Forza Horizon on a Games With Gold month. I tried it thinking it was going be another sim game like Forza Motorsport but a few minutes in I knew it was just the racing game I was looking for. I told Mark to try it at once and soon we were both ripping through Forza Horizon 1-3 and then got 4 day-one. It's got that right combination of actual racing challenge and zany over-the-top stunts that I like. But my favorite thing, like you, is just driving around the environment. I always get that All Roads achievement early on.
I've also picked out my favorite car, the BMW X5 SUV, but there are so many cars in this game. There are a lot of great ones.
I guess he's just going to hold on to it and not let anyone play it again. Seems short sighted to me. I'd love to play it.
I first played it on Xbox just before Xbox 360 came out, then again on Orange Box. I replayed it recently but not really because I just play the levels for secrets and not completion. That tripod battle almost stopped me the first time.
I often think of game ideas and trying to learn Python or Unity. I think my personality doesn't lend itself well to such abstract and immaterial pursuits, which is why I still haven't taken the plunge.
I miss Tower Records too. Sweet memories of several of them, one in my suburban town and one in Philly.
Same here. One day. It seems like a game way ahead of its time too with those different endings and the ability to start over with all your stats and go anywhere. A lot of new games could use that sort of thing.
You never really feel like you own it when it's digital and, in fact, I think you don't own it according to the small print. It's more like licenced to you.
I liked the first Flatout on Xbox a lot especially the minigames where you have to fling your driver out of the car into targets. The other Flatouts are just ok. I never liked their driving controls all that much. Not as good as Burnout.
It's a fun game and very accurate to the park from what I've been told. You don't have to play it with Kinect anymore too. They redid it without the Kinect controls.
