I assume you have to be into soccer to enjoy this one right?
Hello? Anyone here?
Playing slowly through Divinity Original Sin again with different classes. And I'm playing a campaign in the newest R2, pretty much instantly in a civil war with the other pieces of Rome, as expected. Oh, and playing yet another campaign in MTW2, this time as the French. Married off not one but two princesses to the HRE (wonder if that actually does make that diplomatic bond stronger).
I'm playing Skyrim for the first time. Just started.
Should be some fun, many have enjoyed it, I liked it ok, I think I may be a bit burned out on Bethesda's style of games, starting to all feel the same.

Two times exactly right. Dark Souls is incredibly awesome. Demon's Souls is better imho but that's just a matter of taste, the world shifting really opens up the game. Alas, both REALLY good games.Quote:

Mario Kart 8 is pretty damn amazing. Sorry Sony you made the ps3 so good that it's going to take a while before buying a ps4 makes any sense, or not buying a cheap pc instead which is just as good an idea as a very modest pc will easily outperform the ps4 and xbox1. Enter the WiiU, which has a dizzying amount of great games.
I love Nintendo.
Yep. Nintendo really delivered, MarioKart 8 is really good, it's perfect really. Sooooooo pretty.
AcU with 15 frame!!!!
Battlefield 3 multiplayer
Saints Row IV
Its interesting, to say the least. Wish it had more immersion, but I guess thats the price I pay for being able to super jump run at supersonic speeds.
More zombU, such a great game, a shame we will never see a sequal as it's a masterclass in survival horror. So underapreciated in the reviews. And fire the guy who thought the box-art was a good idea please because it screams malware. It isn't, it has some really good mechanics and stunning graphics, best particle effects ever made, and sound to die for so to say. Death is sudden and brutal as it should be. If you play really carefully you can keep your characters alive, but the game loves to assault you. You will die, a lot. Consequence of dying is brilliant, you become a zombie yourselve and your next character gets to loot it.
Captian Toad, sheer brilliance. The puzzles aren't going to melt your brain if that is what you are after, get something else. If you like some casual problem solving with really cool graphics you should get this. Like everyrhing Nintendo makes it is supposedly packed with secret area's. Haven't found one yet but the game is really fun.
Ultimate General: Gettysburg. Nice to see Darth of DarthMod put his money where his mouth is and go out and create a game, a rather good one at that. And with it on sale on steam at 50% off how could I resist enlisting in a bit of civil war combativeness for 7 bucks.
I wholeheartedly agree. Gettysbourg was indeed a rather enjoyable game, in my opinion, a refreshing experience about the games concerning the modern warfare, especially after the disappointing failure of mods, like TGW.Quote:

It's fascinating how almost every race bends the basic economic rules of the game to fit their characteristics.
My main rival for dominance ended up, appropriately, being the Necrophages- a race of insects intent on extinguishing all other life on the planet. There were some epic back and forth wars- including one particular memorable war when my main army was fighting their forces overseas and they went all Scipio Africanus on me and attacked me on my mainland with a large army. They laid siege to a city and tried several assaults to try to wrest it from me while I frantically scraped together relief forces.
By end game, I won by constructing a wonder, but it's safe to say we were also militarily dominant...

To me, this game seems like what Elemental tried to be, but fell short. :yes:
Prison Architect:
Very addicting, even if its kinda bugged. Thats the risk of buying into an alpha I suppose.
Age of Empires II - HD Edition.
Always and forever, incredibly fun and addictive game!
Did I really say the puzzles aren't going to melt your brain. It becomes absolutily vicious after a while. Love this game. It's hilariously sadistic at times but always fun.Quote:

My two big guilty pleasures lately are Endless Space, a pretty solid 4x space game that was fairly bland on launch but has since gained a lot of character and content via free patches and one relatively cheap expansion; and Dungeon of the Endless which is a little rogue-like I picked up on sale not expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised--this is one of the best little rogue-likes I've played, and if you like games like FTL, or Sword of the Stars: The Pit, or (presumably, though I haven't played it) Don't Starve then you'll probably like Dungeon of the Endless.
I considered getting Endless Legend to round out the collection, but that one looks like it'll require a good block of free time set aside. By most accounts, though, its the best of the three.
I made it about 75 hours on Skyrim and just said "ok, I'm done for now". I was just running around doing side stuff with no desire to finish the main campaign. I bought FF8 on steam on sale because I hate myself.
If you have it on the PC? If so, then mods are your answer for being bored in Skyrim.Quote:

yay, DLC added to Mario Kart. By far the most polished game ever and the DLC makes it even better. More in may, can't wait. Oh these graphics and little details, wow
So now I am of the firm opinion that you should not bother with Saints Row IV if you already have Saints Row the Third if its not in the bargain bin. The game just feels like it should have been a DLC or something. Almost everything is just copied and pasted from the previous game, and being able to run at supersonic speeds makes driving and flying pointless. Dont get me wrong, its a fun game to play around with for a couple of hours but otherwise its kinda forgettable.
Currently downloading Medieval 2 on steam, as my cd drive no longer works. Very keen to get back to it, haven't played it in years. Unfortunately downloading at 100kb/s is not very fast.
All Metroid Prime games for 10 euro? You have got to be kidding me. Started with first and it hasn't aged at all, it's just as gorgious as I remember. This is a really sweet deal. Never really liked the third but it's still WAY better than most games. They even polished the graphics a bit to look better on a widescreen tv. Hats up Nintendo.
Child of Light, the most beautiful game I have ever seen. Marvel at this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5b9ZhuqDVQ
Meh, side scroller by ubishaft, pass. I'd pick Okami or Flower over it artistically speaking, just to throw off a couple that immediately come to mind.
Wouldn't dismiss it so fast, it's beautifull and has a really cool turnbased battle-system.
