And Guitar Hero, which is less than 20 years old, has already proven its staying power.

Could've fooled me.

Oh, and where is EverQuest?

Clicked on the link to watch the trailer through YouTube. Bit meh.

Saw people in comments talking about how good Terminator Resistance was, so looked it up on Steam. 65% off, less than $20 (AUD). Purchased.

Weird day.

Pity about the performance, because I've only watched Worth A Buy's recent video on it, but good lord does the game *look* incredible. It's jaw-dropping.

If they can sort that while maintaining those visuals, it's going to be a must-buy.

Yeah, the demo of the DRG survivor game is great.

Quoted for truth.

This is going to sound awfully fanboy'ish, but whether or not it's a title they're developing or just one they're publishing, if Ghosh Ship games are serving it, I'm buying it. SpellRogue, DarkSwarm, DRG Survivor, and now this Rogue Core, they're all on my wishlist and chances are all going to be day one purchases.

I picked this up on PC.

Wasn't planning on it, but the premium edition has been playable since 14th, and watching two very good players go at it is a sight indeed. I haven't really spent any time with the franchise since mk3 way back when, and I'll probably never go online because I'll just get smoked, but I expect to get my money's worth with the story mode and the Invasions. I'm only about 25% through the tutorial, but the game looks good and plays well (though I do have a decent rig). Was pretty chuffed I was able to find an old xbox one wireless controller, as I just about never use the damn things.

911 Operator doesn't show up as a free game offer for me. I can't find it on their store either so maybe it's a region thing?

Same for me here in Australia.

Coming from someone who had spent countless hours playing Doom 1/2, funny how it's the disappointment that has me still remember, despite it being so many moons ago, exactly where I bought the original Doom 3 from.

They're not there anymore, and I'd like to think, in some small way, it played a part.

Why buy it just to close it? Do you really think, in the absence of Project Cars 4, that I’m going to go out and buy the latest Need 4 fucking speed?

Rest in peace PCars. 2 in VR was great fun.

Hearth And Home took 4x longer than was initially expected and added almost nothing besides new building objects. They were *supposed* to do four major content updates per year with Hearth and Home being the first. They've done... one in the past 14 months. Game is a poster child for early access fuckups.

Have to admit, this is where I'm at. Valheim hit like an absolute dump truck, but since then, a whole lotta... nothing. Kinda felt like they took the money and ran.

'Mistlands' sounds like it could be good, but I'm in my late 40s so not sure if I'll still be alive to try it out once it lands.

Vegas 2 has had a looping gun sound bug in multiplayer since... forever (among any number of others, frankly).

Ending support? Oh, that happened a long time ago I'm afraid.

Fuck I hate Epic. For the second time this week, it's logged me out again and I can't get back in. I enter my password correctly but it just does this cycle bullshit and then asks me to enter it once more. Repeat ad nauseam.

If only they spent as much time working on the damn launcher as they do on these freebies.

You might try something like revouninstaller and use it to nuke every folder, registry entry and every bit of leftover detritus after uninstalling.
https://www.revouninstaller.com/revo-uninstaller-free-download/

Giving that a go now. I've done several restarts without success.

Fingers crossed.

Edit: After all that, I don't even know how it worked, but it did. After a combination of reboots and all that, it just... came good. I installed that Revo program but didn't even end up getting a chance to use it.

One of those things.

whatever you do don’t try anything more than the mere basics of troubleshooting ... because we are ... the uber entitled ... pc ... master ... race

Such as disabling your firewall and adding commands to the launcher shortcut before running it, that kinda thing? I don't know, maybe google just likes you more than me today, but nothing that's been proposed as a fix worked for me.

I've just left it running now. "Please wait while we start your service". Yeah yeah yeah. Been at least a couple hours now.

It's pretty funny, I just want a new game to play and the survival update to World War Z ticks all the boxes, but I literally... cannot... buy... it.

Epic Games Launcher.

"Please wait while we start your update".

How long? An hour? Two? Ten?

I've had Epic installed for months and went to actually use it this morning but I was logged out - don't you hate how everything bar Steam just can't seem to get that right? (Uplay, I'm looking at you)

So I tried to log back in, verified with the code emailed to me... and it kicks me back out. Did that half a dozen times.

Uninstalled. Reinstalled.

Or at least, trying to. It won't go beyond "Please wait while we start your update".

Forced it down. Uninstalled. Reinstalled. Same thing.

Seems I'm done.

If only World War Z was on Steam. Oh well, your loss guys.

I bought MW3 on release day for its survival mode (PC of course), but they can go get fucked with this.
