McHazy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Stalker was brilliant it was buggy flawed rushed and unfinished but it was different from all the other generic shooters out there. There is a game coming out that is similar I think but unfortunately it has the same disease as a lot of others these days and it will be an MMO Edited January 18, 2016 by hazy harry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iBMe Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 At least in Watchdogs case it was hardware limitations of the new consoles as to why they toned the graphics down, then they also released it with poorer graphics on the PC because they didnt want people with 2-3 year old PC's showing off how much better it looked compared to the "new" consoles. You can actually turn all the nice shadow and rain features back on, on the PC version, using some config edits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSZZ Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Some of the Eastern European games have been the most innovative in the last 5? years or so. Witcher, Metro 2035, Stalker. Stalker, what a game! Migh thave to fire that up at some point in the near future! Thanks for the trip down memory lane I've expressed my views on the gaming industry in other threads and I'd only be echoing others in here. Console gaming on the whole has gone to shit, there are a lot of great PC titles and indie games though that go under the radar because they don't have the great big budgets that the console gaming industry has so I urge any of you who are feeling disillusioned with console gamings to get your hands on a machine that will play some games and download steam or head over to humble indie bundle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McHazy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Aye I left my console days behind a loooong time ago the only reason I had a 360 was for the occasional game that just didn't come out on the pc like red dead redemption or fight night. And as for the newest generation of consoles they can stick them clean up their collective sony/microsoft arses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never bothered DLing the app for GTA but it was annoying I couldn't train the dog because they only made it available that way even, if it was "free". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget to do it right from start as saves in an unpatched game will not run in patched version. Enjoy!
