Tropico is one of those franchises I've allways kinda wanted to try out but never enough to spend money on it.

So im ok with this month

Tropico is a good game, bought it at full price with no regrets.
And i'm not even salty about it beeing free now. :)

I'll give Tropico a chance, although I've never played a game of that genre before. Otherwise everything else is a miss for me.

Whats yours?


AAA is nothing but a dumb marketing buzzword that seemingly gamers themselves have picked up despite laughing about "aaa" games a few years ago.

"aaa" is dumb as fuck

Yeah it's a stupid term to begin with. But no definion I know or which is common in gaming forums would apply to a game like Tropico.

Man, a mixed bag for me, but better than past months I guess.

Tropico 5 - I'm super happy about. I've wanted to play that game.

Table Top Racing: World Tour - I don't know what this is. Might be fun.

Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 - I already own.

LocoRoco Cocoreccho! - I've owned for ages. I don't think it's for most people.

Switch Galaxy Ultra - Seems interesting.

God of War: Ghost of Sparta - Enough with the fucking PSP games already.

Tropico 5 -Oh that is nice.

Table Top Racing -Not heard of it but it could be fun.

Bionic Commando rearmed 2 - Meh

LocoRoco Cocoreccho! - Great game but I already own it.

Switch Galaxy Ultra - Yay been wanting this for a while

God of War: Ghost of Sparta - Its a good game, but I don't like it when we get PSP games as PS+

Overall, I think its a good month. Perhaps the best this year.

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.

Did it get a retail release? Cause that seems to be what the PS+ complainers want every month.

Tropico 5 is great but the PC version is obviously better so table top for me. I'm glad more people will get to try it though. We need more city builders.
 
Another disappointing month..

I'm really contemplating becoming a single player only gamer at this point.

Oh and the WatchDogs hate is embarrassing. It's an objectively good game.
 
Anybody have Table Top Racing impressions? Looks like some mindless fun I could play with the kids.




It also has 4 player split screen, which is a rarity these days. Looks like there could be some fun to be had. The videos make the game appear very clean with a nice solid framerate.

Not actually that important
Well, looks like they knew UC4 would carry May's subs anyway :p

Is it even decent playing Tropico with a controller? Honest question.
 
never played Tropico, but used to *try* to play SimCity, but it was far too difficulty and stressful. way too many variables and numbers to keep track of.

i just checked out some preview/review videos on Tropico 5 and it seems less intimidating, but i still don't know if it's for me.

can anyone comment on what the overall difficulty of Tropico 5 is like for someone that's not all that great at city sim games?
 
At least Tropico is a full fledged game. I hear good things about the series. Both Table Top Racing and Switch Galaxy Ultra aren't one of those ugly looking games, so that's good. I really don't like those ugly indie games. This month isn't that bad. One full fledged game and two nice looking new games.

This is embarrassing.

If you're referring to some of the posts in this thread then you are right.

looking at the positives I finally get to play Ghost Of Sparta after nearly buying it a few times.

I'll also give Tropico 5 a go as it looks pretty interesting despite me lot liking the genre, but I'll probably not bother with the rest TBH.

4/10 month for me.

How can you give an overall rating to a month when you haven't played any of the games yet? I don't understand this...

Easily the best month for me in a while. 2 games I will actually play (tropico and God of war) compared to the previous months where I wouldn't play anything.
