I spent seven hours yesterday trying to chase down a guy going by the name of John Bigwalk, Big Walk's own mischievous, merry wanderer who has a "golden radio voice" and is making community-led public lobbies a lot more interesting.

I just finished Big Walk with some friends. That is one of, if not, the greatest gaming experiences of my life. If you get a chance to play it with 1, 2 or 3 other friends take it. It is really special!

It feels like a game that had a really solid prototype & pre-production. They cut the padding and knew what they wanted to make which probably kept the costs down. More of this model please.

It is refreshing to play a game that respects your time. Early on your get a scan ability that finds every hidden item within 100m. It is dropping new abilities, enemies and weapons right up until the end. There are multiple dramatic art changes from the space colony look.

I finished Pragmata. That was the exact gaming reset I needed. Solid story, endearing companion character and a chill & innovative combat experience. No filler just a solid 15 hours of exploration and combat.

You & Joey did great. I've watched & read the books, it is great to experience it thorough fresh eyes. I think y'all were a bit tough on Frodo, Sam is clutch but Frodo is a junkie with an addiction thanks to the ring. he still brings to mt doom.He relapses at the end but you got to give him credit

These referees should never come to a Gears of War esports competition if this counts as "unsportsmanlike".

My favourite Xbox franchise too. I adore the original trilogy and it is great to see the facets that make a game Fable; choice, humour, fairytale world and authentically British are all still there, will lots more added on.

My favourite community solutions were don't let people open the door from the inside once they get in or have the room all on fire until the door is unlocked. Get in and you are trapped or burnt.

It would be great if more games had a separate language settings between UI, VO and subtitles. It would help learn a language without missing the key instructions of how to play the game.
