Borderlands 2

Overcooked this week. Up to four player co-op almost certainly going to result in some ugly arguments about who didn't deliver the chopped tomatos in time...

Great fun.

£12 for Dirt Rally 2.0 and F1 2019. Worth it? I have Dirt 4 and Dirt Rally 1 (well, I would have the latter if it didn't keep crashing).

Dirt Rally 2.0 seems to be the all popular one.

edit: irrelevant as both are Windows only and I'm on a Mac.

Dirt rally 2.0 is supposed to be better than the first one, but supposedly relies heavily on dlc. I keep waiting for them to release a 'game of the year' complete edition for sensible money.

The f1 games are fun, but they're definitely not sims, depends how much of an f1 fan you are.

Into The Breach is free on Epic store this week.
Similar visual style to FTL from the same developers.
It's like giant mecha Vs giant bug chess.
Had a couple of hours evaporate already.

Cities Skylines for only the next few hours on Epic. Supposed to be pretty good.

Bah, I have almost all of them.
Of that list I think I’ve put the most hours into Cities Skylines as it’s so replayable.

I played a bit of Cities Skylines and have a town of 5000ish, Cemetery, Police, Fire etc but it hasn't really hooked me tbh not quite sure what the goal is other than just covering the map with stuff.

Today is Jurassic World which is suppose to be very good.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 on Epic store until Jan 21.

It's a huge 90GB download but great fun.

Now put 30+ hours into Cyberpunk, am enjoying it immensely - have decided for time being i'll stay off main questline and do random little jobs in city for a bit to gain some scratch and level myself up a bit - did accidentally get the widow maker tech rifle that fires 12 projectiles at once and now it's upgraded pretty much one shot kills everything when charged up. One guy has a youtube video showing how to level it up to the point where it will hit for a million hp per shot and definitely one shot everything!
Won't aim to do that but will aim to do everything in the game that I can and then go again and get the bits I missed at beginning this time around.

Will also grab battlefront 2 for free

Steam freebies for once - edit. Free to play only for the weekend seemingly.

The supposedly excellent Frostpunk is free on Epic this week.

Can confirm Frostpunk is very very good, like "Oh it's midnight on workday.... Just one more turn..."
Free to keep on Epic until Thursday 10/6/21.

I picked this up yesterday. It's now in my backlog of shame.

Yikes, this week on Epic it is Control. 30GB download...

Control is an excellent game though, well worth downloading.

I was looking at buying that a while back. I should grab it, but doubt I’ll ever play it, haven’t turned the pc on in a couple of months

I beat the base scenario after 20hours (half a dozen restarts or so), might have been less had I read some tips and a guide. Very very satisfying, although not sure I'll go back for the four alternative scenarios.

Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider are all free to keep from Epic store today (only)

Needless to say Epic's servers are being hammered.

Have claimed them all to add to the pile of shame.
