For the first time in years I have used up an EA access 10hr trial and now got to buy a PGA Tour, glad the character stats and currency gets shared between platforms but I got a decision to make over what to buy it for. Game has me by the short and curlies. Got two eagles in a round yesterday and was bouncing around the room. Just now dropped a shot on the 18th and I’m fuming

Afterimage, out today, sounds promising enough. A Kickstarter Metroidvania game doesnt sound anything new but sometimes its good to have some comfort food. Said to last a while too, about 30 hrs worth of content.

Not really surprised. Feels like this game was sent out to die.

It's always been weird to me how the ridiculously massive success of Marvel in the movies industry doesn't seem to have translated into the videogames market.

Because the games they do are either half arsed or pretty average.

Hope this is a right enough place for a noob enquiry about Fortnite.
I've never been fussed with it but my niece and nephew have been pestering me to install it. I've been looking for a training mode to introduce the game (I assumed there was one) and allow me to faff with settings without having to get shot at. Is there one present?

No, but your first 50 or so games will be primarily against bots.
Edit - That wasn't meant to sound snarky. Its actually a pretty good way of letting you get to grips with things. Most folk I know that have played this have boasted about winning their first game. But they probably didn't know. And it allowed them to confidently mess around with the game and experiment more.

Great, thanks for the heads up (I didn't take it as snarky) 🙂.
Edit: Oh there's a Fortnite thread. Glad to see the search function works as well as the one in old place.

I don't know where to ask this so I'll ask it here.
Does anyone know the best way (if there is one) to get Doom 2 on my macbook and if so, can I also get GZDoom working and, if so, can I download and run custom WADs?

It looks like you install GZDoom and put the WAD files from the original game(s) in this folder (might have to manually create yourself): ~/Library/Application Support/gzdoom/ The ~ squiggle means it's the Library folder inside your username/home folder rather than the other Libraries in the root of the hard drive or the System folder. github.com/ZDoom/gzdoom/releasesIf you have more than 1 WAD in the folder GZDoom asks you which one to load when it starts up. I'd imagine it will work with 3rd Party WADs and Mods etc.

The Bethesda port on consoles is good and has some decent custom levels you can download - enough to keep you busy for a while, unless you had specific ones in mind

github.com/ZDoom/gzdoom/releasesHow would I get Doom (2 actually) itself the mac do you think? Steam and Gog only have windows versions?

You just need to extract the Doom 2 wad from the Steam/GOG version and throw it into GZDoom folder. Regarding myhouse.wad, I've been banging on about it for the last little while. It's absolutely incredible.

Have you? Ha I stumbled on it the other day. It looks absolutely amazing.

GZDoom doesn't seem to know the myhouse wad is in that folder. You have to browse to it manually from the GZDoom start up screen but it seems to work with GZDoom (on a 2011 iMac anyway).

Is it a proper Doom level? Sounds like more of a puzzle/curio thing

Just avoid any spoilers for the first playthrough, it's far better to go in blind. There's an extensive wiki and roughly 5 million myhouse vids on Twitch if you get stuck.

Sadly I’ve seen a chunk of it but by no means all of it.

I really wish they'd get on and announce a release date for Remnant 2 - all the 'IGN First' and "Coming this summer" stuff back in March made it sound as though an announcement was imminent, and everything has gone off the boil since then.
If they don't say anything this week, I reckon it'll happen at Geoff Keighley's Ego-travaganza in June.

So Boltgun is fucking awesome. I wasn't going to get it as I've bought enough but a retro fps playing as an Ultramarine carving your way through the hordes of Chaos was too much to pass up. My inner teenager was yelling at me to get it. With the haptic headphones I'm using it feels like you're firing the fucking boltgun yourself. I don't think I'll ever switch wepons. It literally tears shit up.
It's immense. It even has a button dedicated to you reeling off scripture and taunts.
