Been playing Snowrunner all weekend. This game is a beast.
I mean I'd call it one of those whale games that you can dedicate most of your gaming time to. But it's not some live service multiplayer battle royale. It's just packed with game content and multiple massive open world maps.
Given all the years worth of dlc, I could probably play this game well into 2025.
It's looks amazing BTW, on anything more powerful than switch, I'd check out some videos. I'm surprised this game doesn't have more buzz around it.
It's like an open world trucking rpg. You start with crappy vehicles, upgrade them, find and recover new vehicles. Repair bridges.and rockslides.
You pick up and move cargo about the map. Do challenges, contests. There's a fully functional economy system, things to buy and sell. Tons of different trailers and attachments to buy and sell.
You can deep dive into customization, I recently bought new chunky offload tyres and a raised suspension for my jeep. The difference in performance and handling was massive.
It's a really great game.
Then went back to Super Tennis SNES in switch online with my bro. Reignited a 30 year old rivalry lol.
Beware. I've had bad experience with 2K's golf game, so they may have junked it up with microtransactions.
I bought a tennis game the other day without researching -- AO Tennis (Australian Open, not an adult only version), assuming it would be great, because every tennis game I've ever played on consoles was great (except the Mario Tennis one for Wii U). It sucked hard. Non-responsive controls, poor soudn, poor graphics and long load times.
On the topic of tennis, I am fond of the expression, "Does love mean nothing in tennis?"
All of the sports games I've bought this gen are full of microtransctions. I just ignore them. Top Spin is getting good reviews 8/10 at Push Square, for instance.
I'm more annoyed by always online connection requirements for single player, especially when it takes 3 times longer to connect to their servers than to load the game from my PS5's SSD...I'm looking at you, EA!
For real. Here is another good review for you 8/10

Types "Kathy Rain" Thanks, GG!
Alright, GG, I bought Mudrunner from the eshop for $7.50.
You;ll need to buy Pressure Washer Simulator to clean up when you are done playing Mudrunner.
Got it
this will be interesting. Mudrunner was the second game. Its a good place to start but fair warning it can be more difficult than Snowrunner in general handling.
Learn how to use cruise control.
Scout the watch towers first and unlock all the vehicles on a map.
Then locate your lumbermills and log stations. At garage, attach a log trailer, medium are good. One truck can have a short log storage then attach a medium to the back.
You can also load up and tow two trucks each with their own trailers as a convoy. They can also push and pull each other with a winch.
I'd recommend doing the challenges first as it's a tutorial essentially.
You can skip night without it costing you fuel by leaving an unused vehicle (usually a scout) at the garage. Switch to it, skip night and it will auto refill fuel, then you can switch back to other vehicle.
If you tip over in a truck you can highlight the scout on the map screen and press X to bring your scout to your tipped truck. You can use your winch to tip your truck back over.
Looks like he's going to go to work on a new IP, one that I suspect he's going to own a piece of. Still, It is a bit sad to see him leave a series that he left such a strong mark on.
So the House has been in debate for months about killing Tik Tok. Folks, Teams is right fucking there! Easy slam dunk.
What's going on in American politics and other so called democracies. It seems the politicians just do what ever the biggest donors want, even against the will of the public. I'm starting to feel like democracy is an illusion. There's no real alternatives either.
Last 2 and a half hours of the indie sale.
Still not sure what to get.
BTW I was in a gamestore looking to expand my 360 collection and was left a bit perplexed.
There was a huge section of Halo, similarly large ones for COD and Gears of War.
The only other games that looked mildly interesting were Prey and Prototype, they had a few Far Crys too. I'm leaning towards Far Cry but the idea of analogue stick FPS puts me off.
There's a substantial Ass Creed section.
What other games could you guys recommend? I have Tomb Raider, Batman, Enslaved, Dishonoured etc.
US is mostly an oligarchy now.
All forms of government that tell the people they have any part in running things is an illusion. The best solution is to not watch the news, or if you do, do it only for entertainment value.
^That includes the UK by the way. I don't think you'll see a discernable difference with PM Starmer. It's all pantomime.
GG, Prey is fantastic. Sort of a low rent Bioshock. If you don't have a physical copy of Batman Origins then you may want to pick that up. You cant get it on digital
