It's funny you mention Dishonored, it turns out the same studio that made Theif made Dishonored.
Mae, thank you for sharing. That was fantastic and had great production values.
The only bone I will pick is they essentially give Thief, along with Metal Gear Solid, credit for innovating the stealth genre. I wish they would have mentioned Tenchu, a personal favorite of mine on the PS1 and a really under-appreciated game. Both Tenchu and Thief share a lot of gameplay similarities and I would say they both equally impacted the genre and both came out the same year.

You're very welcome. This was a (very brief) history of how Thief came to be, not an in-depth history of stealth games. I think I may have posted something to that effect in this very thread actually.
Also, if you're not itching to actually play the game, there is this amazing let's play of the original: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...ER2kmDBtMCVXAk
well GTA 5 may have made a shit ton of money but for me Spider man, god of war and Uncharted 4 are far far better games. there's a lot of things i don't like that have made a shit ton of money that i can't stand and GTA 5 the series just isn't my type of game that's all. i will prolly get FF7 though i had never played any of the games until i bought 15 last year and it's a decent game but i am really not that far anyways in it. and breath of the wild is also a far far better game as well though that' not my favorite Zelda game, for Zelda my favorite is the 1st one from the 80's as that's my favorite game of all time, next favorite Zelda game for me would i think would be either link to the past or link between worlds and after that would be twilight Princess. off topic did you guys and gals too see that Phil Spencer spoke about how the series x well he hinted at really that the series X may get delayed.
i forget how he actually put it to be honest. but i can totally see the series x and the PS5 not coming out this year if this shit continues and if things are back to normal come June or even July it's gonna take quite awhile for them to get back to where to working on the consoles again as they both don't want to rush them out either so that's why i say they won't release them this year but next year
Final Fantasy 7 changed my life. I have a long drawn out story about how it lead me here. It sparked my love of RPGs. That being said, I refuse to pay money for part 1 of a game. The end of the FF7 remake is essentially the end of the opening of the original game. You read that right.

I can't wait for my Xbox One to arrive. Only 7 more days...though it could end up arriving in less. I've had a copy of Fallout 4 since I found a cheap used copy at EB two years ago so I'll definitely play that. I'm buying an older model, but it's brand new and still factory sealed and comes with a the ability to choose which game I want out of 4 choices. I was originally going to get Rise of the Tomb Raider because I really liked the reboot, but then I saw the Rare Replay was one of the options. While it's lacking the Donkey Kong games and Goldeneye due to licensing (I wish I could play Diddy Kong Racing!), it has so many classic games I have fond memories of included dating back nearly 40 years now....Jetpac, R.C Pro Am 1/2, Snake Rattle N' Roll, Battletoads, Killer Instinct Gold, Blast Corps, Perfect Dark, Jet Force Gemini, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Banjo-Kazooie...there are 30 games in total! Man, I can't wait to dig into this treasure trove of memories, and half the games I've never played.

ACtually FUCK THAT! It apparently arrived today as the seller sent me an e-mail and asked if I'd gotten it because he got the alert it was delivered. Sure enough, that's what the shipping details says. Going to my mailbox to get the pick up ticket now
WHAT A LOVELY LOVELY DAY!!!

I'd dish out top dollar for a remastered version of Banjo-Kazooie. Fuck I love that game.
Playing the ever-loving shit out of the Resident Evil 2 remake. It's everything I hoped it would be and more. Well done.

My local post office pick up location was closed early today GODDAMNIT! I have to wait until Saturday now. Not that big of a deal since I expected to get it 7 days from now, but still sucks.

Hell yeah, that game is the shit. Unfortunately I read that RE3 can be beaten in a little under 6 hours.. there's no way in hell I'm paying full price for a game I can beat in 1 day so I'll wait for a holidays 2020 price drop.
Also, why do I never see your user name online anymore?
Yeah that's a gonna be a no for me dawg
I love the RE franchise but with everything going on, my pay was slashed by 15% so if I buy something it's gotta be worth it. Hell I bought Witcher 3 for $10 over Christmas and I could easily get about 300hrs of gameplay offa that if I so choose.
I hear ya. The value to me is because it's a sentimental favorite and I'll play it over and over. RE4 is my overall favorite and it still takes a bit to get through even after you're totally maxed out.
I still have to do my "no item box" run on RE3 so that'll take a minute. But agreed, much better value when it goes on sale.
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
RE4 is an all time great that I'll make my grandchildren play some day. A perfect modern horror-shooter game. I think I own that game for like 4 different systems - Gamecube, PS2, PS3, PS4.
Do you game on PS or XB? If the former add on me on PSN, heisenfern.
People on Xbox should add me MattrickBT. Might be a month or two before in online with a mic, but I've got a 30 day pass I'll be cashing in in a few weeks

Also just signed up for game pass (only a buck for the first month) and only 6 bucks more than I'd pay for Xbox live anyways. Lots of games I intended to play available on there...Final Fantasy 15 Royal Edition, Metro Exodus (and the redux of 2033 and Last Light), Rare Replay (since my code is expired), Halo 5, Gears of War 4, GTA 5 (I've played it, but want to replay it), Alien Isolation and some older games I missed like Resident Evil Revelation, MGS 3. I've got enough games available to last me a full year of hardcore gaming!
I forgot what this feeling is like!

I forgot how good the first season of The Walking Dead was. The graphical upgrade looks fantastic too. I'm looking forward to doing my asshole run after my initial play through where I try to be the most pragmatic in terms of decisions. You can be SUCH an asshole in this game if you want to be, especially to Kenny. I rememberSpoiler:. I can't wait to actually get to Seasons 3 and 4. I heard mixed things about Season 3 and I know nothing about Season 4.

I know a lot of people complained about playing as a different character in Season 3 of The Walking Dead, but it's been a pretty goddamn good story and I like the new characters quite a bit. I've got one episode left and I'm curious to see how it's going to wrap up and set up the final season.
Also, GTA 5 in first person is a totally different game. It's awesome.

I always enjoyed Telltale's game - walking dead, guardians of the galaxy, game of thrones, the wolf among us - but they were so god damn buggy that it would take me out of the game several times.
