General Videogame Thread

Absolutely brilliant and remains 1 of my all time favourites, witcher 4 has an awful lot to live upto :)
Am I the only person in the world that thought it was boring as fuck, reems and reems of endless dialogue. Walk from A to B to C back to B then A. Snore. Everyone else seems to like it though so must be just me.
 
Just got diablo 2 remastered, supposed to be the best one according to the old school fans
It was brilliant, and I'm interested to see how it holds up today, how it plays on consoles/game controllers and whether they've made gameplay tweaks to resonate with today's gamers.

I just recently bought Diablo 3 for PS4, having played through it on PS3, because I want to play as the DLC-added Necromancer - the character I played through Diablo 2 with.
 
Highly recommend Psychonauts 2 (available on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate). Visually it's a work of art and the characters and story along with it are captivating. Wasn't expecting much but now wish it never ended.

Really recommend it, its great fun so far. Diablo 3 ended up being too easy i think

I dont need an OS. Gone for SSD because I archive off all my vids and photos and music, so I dont necessarily need the space.

Anyone with any knowledge what do you think? Any incompatabilities? Any bottlenecks ?

Not a bad set up.(ever thought of buying separate and building it yourself? You might save a few quid)

Remember buying any old power unit when I last built mine. Read a review on it a couple of months later.

First review: "If you want to burn your house down, buy this"

Went out and bought a Corsair next day. Fuckin shit myself.
