Video Games

My internet is absolute garbage, so bad that I struggle to watch Netflix on a weekday evening. Should I:

-Pre-order a physical copy of RDR2, pick it up and wait for patches etc.
-Pre-order a digital copy which will pre-load 2 days before release.

Which is likely to get me playing sooner?

Get better internets.

Not an option currently.

Get better internets just before game is out.

just go ride your horse around whatever wild west wilderness you currently live in instead.

I would say buy the physical but knowing what day one patches are like I'm sure you'll have a 50gb patch even if you get the disc.

Get physical copy, disconnect ps4 from internet in case of patch.

The disc version required a 105gb install out of the box, no word on a Day 1 patch yet (thankfully)
Not sure what the download size is, but presumably massiver.

Word is (via a leaked ps4 copy) it's a 50gb install + 3gb day one patch

I swear I read somewhere it was over 100gb.

I think the download needs 100gb of space (space of the downloaded package + space for the install) but installing from disc only needs the space for install.

Not sure if it's a good deal, but 3 months Xbox live gold codes are buy 1 get 1 free on Amazon (£15 for 6 months)

save you about £7 i think if you got 4x for the year.

Let me know if/when a times good!

For collection?

So I've just bought Blops 4 for PC. As a nerd with principals I hate giving money to Activision but I had fun with Blops 2.

I played a bit of 3 on PS4 because they gave it me for free.
Hardcore TDM/DM was the only thing I played. Bit odd wall running, but I got used to it swiftly enough. I imagine there is more of that in this one?
I preferred the Battlefield 1 experience myself, but each to their own

I never played 3, it looked weird with the wall running and that. 2 was more of a standard shooter, except with stupid/fun COD stuff like single bullet and hatchet matches. Also having played Counter Strike for over a decade I found I was always top of the team, and being good at something always nice.

I think Blops 4 is back to running running and jumping

To Whoever recommended overcookes.
Thanks. Second best £3 I ever spent mate cheers!

Glad you like it.

It was a best fun during Christmas holidays last year :)

Brought Switch to my brothers house and played it with him and his daughter over 6 days and managed to 3 star every level in game. It was so much fun.

This year we gonna do the same with the new Overcooked 2 :)

Anyone know where I can order RDR2 for delivery next Friday?

Likes of amazon and game just state release date 26th, buy can't see any mention of it being dispatched before then.

You finished the new AC already?

Amazon will deliver for release date. They haven't let me down yet.

The best way is still digital download with pre-load. Xbox is saying that downloads will start on Wednesday next week in time for midnight unlock on Friday.

Good article looking at the books that inspired Firewatch

God no, it's huge. Put 20 hours in so far and feel like I've barely scratched the surface.

Enjoying it more than Origins, particularly in terms of storyline. Concerns that ancient Greece would be a bit underwhelming after pyramids and shit were unfounded.
