Haven't seen a thread on this so i thought I'd make one.


So what's Tapology playing?


I've been dabbling in a bunch of games but i keep going back to Uncharted 3,Black Ops 2 and BF 3 multiplayer.

Don't care that THPS 1+2 is Epic exclusive. I'm just going skip the PC version until it comes on Steam and in the meantime buy it for PS4 because I want to play a real Tony Hawk game and I miss video games that are fun.

Slim pickings these days Green. They've even ruined fallout.

Dunno what I'll do if the next Elder Scrolls game sucks.

My usual cycle for the past week or 2 has been UFC 3, Civ 5, and Cod MW

Lately I got strong interest in mining games where I can have some chances to win free bitcoin Its good way for beginners to earn some btc. Plus the game is interesting and simple for playing.

Wait what you can win fake virtual money in a game, not like koopa coins?
Thats cool I guess winning silver gold or even coal would make more sense.

@avensis

BTW is the PS5 really worth the money? I've got a PS4 that I'm still very happy with but the ads and reviews for the PS5 look great but it's a bit out of my price range at the moment. I was just wondering if it is something that's really worth saving up for or if I should just wait a year or so and get a 2nd hand one?

EDIT: I know there are some 2nd hand ones available now but most of the prices are still a bit too much for my liking.

@NickySwaz

Thanks for the advice! Like I said, I'm still happy with my PS4 so I don't really need to bother forking out hundreds just for an updated version and would only have done that if it really was miles better than the PS4.

Nah man what you need is a NES then you can play Metroid..or you can always emulate it I guess.
Either way should cost under a bill and give hours of repeatable entertainment.

The best thing honestly is to build or buy Alienware, I've had this PC since 2016 and I can play Red Dead Redemption 2 on medium graphics. No lag, nothing. Mordhau on ultra, 64 players.

Currently have the PS5, the XSX, a Nintendo Switch and a suuuuuuper mid-tier PC. 

It struggles with anything even kind of resembling a AAA game. But it runs games like Mordhau and Chiv 2 pretty OK. I don't max-out everything, just to help of performance, but the things I don't max out are stuff like shadows and cloth physics - stuff that isn't crazy important but definitely hits the performance a ton if not on a Grade A system.

Bought the PC to play titles like Mordhau, Counterstrike, WoW, etc, that can't be played on console. And it hasn't disappointed on that front. Been playing a ton of Civ 6 lately on it as well. 

I have done the whole PC building thing, and have had too many bad experiences with faulty parts and whatnot. Even when bought from reliable sites and vendors. I got unlucky, I guess. So the build I'm on now is an admittedly pretty terrible Dell pre-built. The system itself can reliably run a lot of games on ultra without a hitch, but the more AAA titles I have to go on medium usually. And at that rate the performance isn't good anyway, so I can play those games on console. 

When this PC decides to give out on me, I will shell out some money on a high-end PC after I do some research. But for now, it'll do. Even though the fans/cooling in it are just terrible and it gets pretty warm very quickly. But I'm looking into fixes for that now that'll hopefully add some life to this thing.

UFC 4 is the worst ******* game ever made

I have clocked in a total of 243 hours into UFC 4. It is my third most played game. I haven’t been more depressed by a statistic since I found out more than 50% of Americans believe ghosts exists.

Look, I get it, I get why these games will never, EVER get any better. It’s a brilliant, albeit evil strategy by EA: purchase every significant sport license, basically own an entire genre of video games, and the money makes itself. “Who the **** needs to put effort into video games anymore? They have nothing else to quench their Madden addictions! We’ll just make the same game every year but with more bugs and microtransactions!” The Cheeto finger licking ****** EA executive says, cackling maniacally circling his pinky fingers around his fat pubic hair ridden nipples. 

Honestly, I almost respect the idea. It’s a con man’s wet dream, ******’ Jimmy McGill would kill to work at EA. I’m content with the fact these games will never get better, because EA has no reason to try to be better when everyone is as eager to suck their teet for some succulent loot box juices like the most malnourished veal in the flock, especially since Dana, being the jew he is, re-signed a deal with EA to make games for five more years, because sports executives don’t give a **** about a game’s quality, only that it sells. I am perfectly content with that reality.

BUT GOD ******* DAMN IT IT MAKES ME SO MAD


The fact they are still using this dog****, backwoods game engine since the first title is the most blatant sign they have stopped giving a ****. The engine is straight up not finished, the physics are bizarre and have no ******* consistency whatsoever. Sometimes, kicks will land foot first but phase through the opponent like I’m Bruce ******* Willis seeing dead people, but sometimes it will land just because. Sometimes I defend takedowns perfectly, other times it says “Nah, **** you. I don’t care if you’re finger******* the shoulder buttons with the aggression of a pent up steroid ridden Mongolian who has been locked in a basement for thirty years watching nothing but every single Rambo movie and Conan The Barbarian, you’re getting taken to the ground.” 

And oh my god, what is with the ******* knockdowns in this game?!?! I have to knock my opponent down, at the very least, FOUR TIMES IN SUCCESSION, before he finally goes to sleep on the fifth spinning heel kick. I’m not a pro fighter or anything, but I wanna take a quick guess that if you’re getting knocked down more than three times in an actual fight, the fight is over. It’s like Mario Yamasaki is reffing every single match and letting my opponent be a warrior. 

By the ways, you guys wanna know how to win EVERY SINGLE MATCH against the A.I in the game? Here’s how you do it:

1. Choose wrestler 
2. Takedown opponent (preferably in the clinch because shoots absolutely suck **** in this game)
3. Get into side control
4. Go into side saddle or crucifix
5. If the opponent pushes back into side control, simply go into side saddle or crucifix again, it takes too much stamina for the A.I to fight back
6. Elbow opponent repeatedly until their face looks like a puckered *******

Congrats, you won the game! Your reward is a toaster, you now have the pleasure of holding it, running to the nearest public pool and cannonballing straight into the water. Hey, at the very least, it was way more fun than playing UFC 4.

I prefer UFC 2 on PS4, I've had several thousand online fights, my ranked record is 70 - 12 but 3 min rounds suck in ranked or is it 2 mins I forget
