I am getting it on the PC and I was able to preload today.
Was hoping to start playing early but so far it says not available yet. I might try later tonight because when I ordered it I thought it said available October 6.
Today's the 5th. Grinning

I've played every Far Cry game except the weird spinoff one you mentioned. That one just looked like a cheap/half ass attempt at cashing in on the series.

I do think 6 will be amazing.

I haven't played the Just Cause series in years, but from what I remember they're pretty fun. I think the last one I played was Just Cause 3. They're kind of like Far Cry mixed in with Vin Diesel's Xander Cage character in XXX.

I've got it preloaded on the PC and checked late last night and it still just said "coming soon" I saw online there is no early access for preorders. I will check tonight at 9:00 pm PST - 12:00 am EST and see if it pops up then. If not tomorrow it is.

I have enjoyed all the Far Cry series except Primal. The add on to Far Cry 5 was a little strange at first but once I got into it I enjoyed it. Give it a shot. Probably get it for cheap with 6 coming out.

Have not tried Just Cause. Will have to check it out. I just got Alan Wake Remastered on the Xbox Series X so I may have to check it out later today. It is on the PS also.

I bought Sackboys Big Adventure the other day for the PS5 because it was on sale. Don't normally play those type games but have been playing it every chance I get. Addicting...

I played a few hours of Farcry 6 and its pretty fun. You have an attack pet cuban crocodile as a sidekick. I kind of prefer 3rd person views on games except battlefield and Call of Duty type games but got used to it pretty quickly.
The chicken man is pretty ruthless.
I bet the developers were not happy that on launch day chicken man said nonvaxed should be sent to an island.
I was just reading from game developers how xbox forces woke content where Playstation doesn't care either way.

FarCry 6 is getting good. Some crazy missions and good graphics. I had to get back in the groove but it all came back with the controls and tricks and strategies I used before, for instance i use a chopper for everything i can after clearing the airspace and just land one near by for easy navigation. The main story and game play is pretty good.
Fly fishing for snook and permit is pretty cool too.

I just purchased it and it says I have 33 days until I can play on the beta link. bummer.

My Duel Sense started to have stick drift. I rang Sony & they said approximately 15 days turn around. I then went to the retailer I purchased the PS5 from & they said no problem bring it in & we’ll swap it over. I swapped it for a black pad, it looks so much better. I’ll post a picture when I get home from work.

Is Vice City the one you play as CJ? You can let him get really fat or hit the gym and be a bodybuilder. Grinning

As Battlefield is pretty much the only game I play, I hope to god 2042 is not a failure. I bought BFV on release day and never even opened it.

I really scratch my head sometimes with DICE and them seemingly refusing to listen to the BF community. The consensus I have seen overwhelmingly disapproves of the new "specialist" system, and they respond by doubling down on it..

The community has been screaming since BF1 to go back to a modern setting, and stick to the BF roots that set the game apart. They again went another direction with BFV, and now with 2042 they still don't seem to be listening.

I didn't get a chance to play the beta, so I am simply going off of the responses I have been seeing from others. I really hope it ends up being a solid release, because we have been waiting forever!!

Played a few rounds late last night of Battlefield 2024 Conquest and it was pretty fun. I really did horrible because I'm old and feel blind trying to see enemies on the horizon but fun trying.

Far Cry 6 got me hooked quick. I got to do the Danny Trejo side mission before they pulled that update. Only got one mission done so I don't know if there was more. Lola at the Bandito camp keeps mentioning him, but I beat the main story line last week and haven't had another mission with him yet. The end mission of the main story line is a trip. They planned it well though, as they do some stuff to keep you coming back after beating the main story. Curious to see what the DLC is all about, but waiting until its less than $40.

The panther or black cougar or whatever the hell it is was the last companion I got, but I mainly play with Boom Boom because he points out the bad guys for you.

Jumped back to AC Valhalla over the weekend and forgot how much fun that one is. Kind of forgot where I even am in the story, but its getting pretty interesting, especially with the settlement side stories they throw in every so often.

Me too. i just jumped back on Valhalla last week and it also had some cool new content.
I was enjoying leveling up on Battlefield and trying to get to level 14 fast for the pp29? gun that is better than the rest and i hear they are going to deleted it because of its advantage but i ran out of time before i had some deliveries to meet at my property and gone for a few days. Back on tonight.

If any of you guys like mountain biking, I highly recommend you check out riders republic. I have been having a ton of fun with it, I find it is much better than descenders (another newer mtb game out).

Been playing Insurgency Sandstorm a lot on console. Nice game to look into if anyone likes shooters with a more tactical/realistic feeling.
