Re: Poll: Which Halo Campaign Is Your Favourite?

For me it is Reach, closely followed by 5. As @stylon said if 5 had more Chief in it then that would have been top. I know Reach has no Chief at all but for me it was the epitome of Halo, gun play, story etc. Its also the one I've completed the most times and spent the most time in online play.

@DRL Good review Dave. I'm currently six or seven missions in on Heroic and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. To me it feels like Halo of old with a couple of good additions. I quiet like the team aspect although it does take the focus off Chief a bit and the ground pound is amazing when you can connect. The bleed out also gets my vote but again it takes a little bit of tension off. It does feel a little easy so I'll be interested to see how it feels on Legendary. I'd agree with the score, a solid 8/10 from me.

Well, it turns out I will have a game night Saturday so I think I'll finish off Halo CE on Legendary and then get stuck in to Halo 2 in MCC. I'll give it a try on Legendary and probably dial back the difficulty as I've heard that it's the most challenging of them all. I remember completing it on Heroic when it was first out on the 360, but that was a LONG time ago!

Re: Review: Forza Motorsport 6 (Xbox One)

Great review @SuperKMx as always! I really enjoyed the demo and will pick this up in the not too distant future. The rain definitely adds a much needed dimension to the racing (even from my brief try) and the night racing seems interesting. All in all, for me, it takes the game so much further on than 5 did and that is welcome.

For me it'll be a quiet weekend as I'm at a wedding all day tomorrow and then recovering on Sunday. If I get the chance I'm trying to clear up all the Riddler stuff on Arkham Knight (which is taking AGES!!) and I've just started Dark Souls 2, so that should be me occupied for about the next millennium! I may have another crack at the end game boss on Dark Souls as he is proving rather tricky and I can't get my head around parrying, so it's massive armour all the way for me.

Re: Feature: From Worst to First, We Rank the Batman: Arkham Games

crippyd

I would rank them in the following order Arkham Knight, City and joint Origins and Asylum. I haven't played Blackgate so can't comment on it. For me Knight just makes me feel more Batman, especially the very first time you get in the Batmobile. Driving the Batmobile is a bit of a low point for the game but getting in it, especially from up high, is amazing. I'm still only about 25% completed so still many hours of enjoyment to go I have all the other games to replay at some point and to try and mop up the last couple of % in City to 100% it.
