AER Memories of Old and Stranger Things 3: The Game. Free until 02 July.
Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition is free on Steam until 26 June.
It is quite a nice versus fighting game. It does not play like Street Fighter and also does not play like Mortal Kombat. Fighting mechanics aside, you do get to throw your opponent at stuff and also throw stuff at your opponent. A good use of the surrounding environment I say.
Anyone who likes DC heroes or villains should get this game since it is free.
Pathway is this week’s Epic Freebie. Free until 25 June.
GOG.com is giving away Eye of the Beholder Trilogy. Free for the next 38 hours.
Just saw STAR WARS™: Squadrons on Steam. Is this the next X-wing/Tie Fighter/X-Wing Alliance game? It’s about b*&#$y time!
I don’t know. It looks more like the next X-Wing vs Tie Fighter to me. Hope they have a good single-player campaign, plus bonus Death Star and Death Star II runs and the Millennium Falcon.
I am late to the party again but…
Talisman: The Horus Heresy leaving Steam on 22nd June
Sad to see that Talisman: The Horus Heresy will be crossing the river Styx to join Grid and Marvel Heroes. At least like Grid, Talisman: The Horus Heresy can still be played once you own the game.
It is a fun digital board game. I only played single-player against the AI, but I still found it good fun. It is not the smartest AI, and sometimes it would do something down right stupid, but I still can only win about 50% of the games.
Having never played Talisman before, I got both Talisman: Digital Edition and Talisman: The Horus Heresy and was hopping between the two. Talisman: Digital Edition is great, but Talisman: The Horus Heresy, well… it’s Warhammer 40,000!
It feels great to take part in the galaxy shattering event that is The Horus Heresy. Where Talisman: Digital Edition feels like the ever changing fantasy mini-RPG, Talisman: The Horus Heresy feels more like a galactic civil war strategy game. Similar mechanics, but feels very different.
The whole relentless fighting across the galaxy atmosphere, is boosted by the great soundtrack composed by Mattias Westlund. He also composed the soundtrack for Talisman: Digital Edition, but his works for Talisman: The Horus Heresy are more impressive in my opinion (Warhammer 40k bias?). Talisman: The Horus Heresy also has the grandest, most awe inspiring, galactic war victory music in all of gaming history! Alright, I got carried away. Out of all the games I have played, it has the best end game music ever. For some strange unknown reason, this end game music is not on the official soundtrack.
As fun as it is, Talisman: The Horus Heresy is marred by a few bugs. I have only encountered one bug, but it cripples the affected character. Fans of Ferrus Manus better stay away from this game. With the game going away for good, it looks like these bugs are here to stay.
Although I don’t play the game online, looking at the online games list never shows anyone playing. So, if you are planning on some multiplayer goodness, make sure you have friends with the game. The developers have said that the online functionality will stay up, but who knows how long that will be for.
If you do decide to get Talisman: The Horus Heresy in these final days, make sure to get the complete bundle. The extras do add good variety to the game. Just don’t expect it to be as large as Talisman: Digital Edition. It is not a game for everyone, but it is a game for those that have a strong desire to say…
The day hasn’t ended and another freebie appears. Hitman: Absolution is the fourth freebie for this Friday. Free on GOG.com for the next 70 hours.
I played a bit of it while GameSessions was still working. Good to see it free now on GOG. Being the game before HITMAN and HITMAN 2, Hitman: Absolution lacks some of the features that are in the newer games. The little bit I played was also very linear rather than having an open sandbox area to do stuff. It is still a fun stealth game though.
ARK: Survival Evolved and SAMURAI SHODOWN NEOGEO COLLECTION are this week’s freebies from Epic Games. Free until 18 June.
Snake Pass is being given away by Humble Bundle. Free with 2 days and 14 hours to go.
The Total Annihilation gift code for GOG.com is still valid and unclaimed.
UPDATE: This code has been claimed. Have a nice day.
