It is stealth boxing. To be fair, when I played as Calzaghe I would fight as Calzaghe. However, you cannot get too reckless as flash KD's do happen.

I couldn't handle online as some people were obviously cheating somehow. They would be invincible and it would piss me off when the inevitable 'fag' comment would come after being impossibly crushed. Ridiculous. At least I kept it real.

I think I might have played it online once, some geeza who literally spammed the body in a way that you couldn't block or get out of the way of it, I can't be fucked with shit like that so I never played in online again

Yep I never did figure out the body spamming tactic. It was impossible to defend against.

Miss fight night online. Can't understand why they not doing a new one

Sounds like Days Gone is a glitchy mess with a bad story. Sounds akin to Far Cry 5 with zombies. Shame really as the hordes look fun and the basic premise is the same mass shooting thing we have all seen and done a thousand times, so you shouldn't be messing that up. It's looking like I might not play a game until TLOU2. I think a good story is important and we saw some good ones with the Naughty Dog games and RDR1 and 2, but I found with Uncharted 4 and RDR2 the games were getting too big and sprawling and thus a bit boring. Uncharted 4 simply wasn't as fun as the others.

Yes I was waiting for Days Gone then saw the reviews....shame after all that build up.

It’s not easy to follow an open worlder like rdr2 is it.

Wish they’d do a full on GTA in London

RDR2 is easily my favourite game of all time. Such a beautiful game. So many breathtakingly cinematic and heartbreaking scenes.

Made me invest in a pair of 7.1 headphones.

Try hunting with them on. Brilliant!

Is it really? I think the story was fantastic and I think some missions were fun, but some of it just fell flat for me and I found myself a little bit bored. It is technically stunning, but in terms of just pure 'fun' and 'excitement' I just don't think it was as good as the games I enjoy more like Uncharted 2 and TLOU.

@Mark TKO I don't know about Day's Gone. The critics savaged it, but the user reviews are mostly saying 'Steady on, this game is actually a lot of fun and I do not get the reviews'. I don't know, I am in two minds about it. Kind of want to play, but am on a game hiatus and it is good for me to not be playing any games.
