My colleagues got me Lego Star Wars on the PS4 as a leaving gift... Can't wait to play it obviously but does anyone who's played it have any thoughts on its suitability to play with a 3 year old? My son LOVES Lego and I think he'd have a blast just watching me play (not quite ready to play video games himself IMO).

My mate plays with his 5 year old, I know that's a bit of age difference but he absolutely loves it, the games are very family friendly.

The LEGO games are all very safe and family friendly, so you should be good. Even the "violence" is just bricks breaking apart...nothing crazy. My kids watched me play a bunch of them.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land


...holy pink marshmallowfucks.

Mind.
Blown.

Is it actually good or is it mostly for kids?

More VR, still playing Alyx, which still seems to be way beyond anything else in VR (at least, combining true vr experience with a excellent designed world and great storytelling,) but going slowly, not wanting it to end.

My son played Vader immortal, still have to try it.

Also playing Flight Simulator 2020 and Half Life, Black Mesa, both in VR. First one is impressive, though my system can hardly handle it in full detail. And HL1 is fun, but nausiating, it was definitely not made for VR, and I cannot stomach moving around for too long

Streamed some more Starcraft last night. Actually had some pretty good engagement from viewers, too! Except now I'm up to THAT mission in the Protoss campaign... uuuuu...

Played a few hours of Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I dunno. I loved the first game. I endured the second game. This one - I think my patience with this series has evaporated.

I've got a Power Wash problem.

After finishing the game yesterday I tried a few games to replace my addiction. I Powered straight through Katamari Damacy Reroll in a few hours. Enjoyable but way too short.

Then I tried out House Flipper and Lawnmower simulator to see if they scratched the same itch but they're too rough and underdeveloped/low budget. I seriously started considering downloading Farming simulator or Euro Truck simulator but then I reconsidered.

There's nothing on the market quite like Power Wash Simulator, so I redownloaded the game and reset the game progress and am now replaying the career mode.

I'm so hooked on this game that I'm watching Markiplier's let's play of the game. I don't remember when I was last this hooked on a game. Maybe Minecraft?

Have you played Hardspace: Shipbreaker? Its the reverse, you're breaking ships apart and sorting their pieces into the correct areas, but finishing a large ship brings the same feeling as finishing a large building...

[Aptorian]

Don't really play PC much these days. I'm hoping Shipbreaker eventually comes to console.

Definitely heard great things about the game.

Why did I subject myself to Jump King...

Anyone have a Steam Deck? Are they worth getting?

Uh, my understanding is it's a Switch but for PC games. So with that in mind YMMV. A lot of people say the cost is way too steep for what you get but it obviously then depends on budget and willingness to spend.

Idk I’m having an utter fucking blast on it myself. On late ch 2 now.

Two Point Campus just dropped so I'm gonna give it a whirl tonight, and yes it will be on Twitch and no I'm not giving you my Twitch link.

Decided to try Deathloop after really enjoying Hades. It took a while to get my head around it but figuring out how to use the different abilities to my advantage is very satisfying. And I enjoy the aestethics of the island it takes place on. I think returnal will be my next game after this.

Trying Arkham Spidey on PC. Played for 4 h last night, I am downright awful at this web-swinging thing. Doesn't happen that I don't really know Manhattan, so I'm constantly lost.

But it's fun. Though i just unlocked the collectible landmarks i gotta photo, and with my OCD in doing the busywork in open-world games first to over-level before I do any story missions, it might not end well.

[Maark Abbott]

Downloaded Tower of Fantasy. Probably won't properly try it until the weekend.
