I played the Beyond Earth demo when it came out... was fun but really just felt like a reskin of Civ V.. would've preferred if they at least used Civ IV as the base

It's the free GWG on Xbox One this month and if you have any shred of interest in 2d platformers, you need to download this shit ASAP. So good. So pretty.

Started playing Heroes of the Storm, the new WoW version of League of Legends. Very addicting and awesome. Games are shorter and there is about 8 maps to give the game a little spice.

Ruien 04-13-2015 09:54 AM

I would not date touch Neverwinter. It is just like Baldur's Gate right? Lost like a year of my life to that game. So much detail and many things to do. Awesome times.

drave 04-13-2015 09:57 AM

It uses D&D rules but is a MMO. Started a trickster rogue last Tuesday and managed to get to level 28-29 by the end of the weekend. Lotsa fun so far, but I have my reservations about "end game" grinding as Astral Diamond exchange for Zen seems outrageous. It is a FTP game, so I get that.... but hell just the addition of a single race + a 30 slot bag translates to $75USD - no thanks.

Picked up a copy about a month ago of Just Cause 2 because I remembered enjoying it and that I had fallen short of quite a few of the achievements. Actually got "Perfectionist" (For 75+% overall game completion) as soon as last story mission wrapped.

Also got around to playing my Complete Edition BioShock Infinite for the first time in a while the other day, and finished Burial St Sea - Ep. 1, and just started Ep. 2 and holy shit...story is freaking me out and I'm loving it. Lot of Twilight Zone style shit going on.

His teleport is fast but it's completely unsafe on block. Very punishable.

Yea, it was in 9 too. It was quite surprising to see people whine about that.

Probably a lot of newcomers who didn't play 9.

DAMN iNATOR 04-25-2015 12:12 AM

So, I know I'm WAY behind in this but just finished Burial at Sea - Episode 2 last night, and without saying too much, I think the ending leaves a lot of things open to interpretation. Also, it was good to see Elizabeth get one of her wishes...but at what cost? I'll just leave it there commentary-wise, as I'd hate to end up spoiling anything for those who wish to but have not yet played it.

Managed to finish it in 1998 Mode for the secret achievement, even though I gave up on 1999 Mode (w/no vending machine purchases) @ the Fink warehouse level where Booker has to "audition" or whatever.

WOOOO! Fuck those Uruks!!

Kinda makes me wanna go download the game and play it again.



Downloaded the new-ish Strider. Very fast paced button-smashing arcade-platforming action that is hard to put down. So far, following the Metroid-Vania formula with acquiring upgrades/abilities, re-visiting maps later with said abilities to unlock more shit, blah blah blah, you get it.

The Destroyer 05-02-2015 12:27 PM

I was very disappointed by the final mission.

What I thought would be an epic battle against the Hand of Sauron's five Talons was piss easy and the final boss fight was 3 or 4 quick time events. Really, guys?

Fignuts 05-02-2015 12:30 PM

Yeah, the first boss was tougher than any of them.

drave 05-02-2015 12:53 PM

They did end the game on a very wet fart, no doubt. They tried to make up for it with DLC, and think they released one where you

actually face off against Sauron.


Don't think it is an actual spoiler, but don't want to ruin anything.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas HD (XBox 360)

I love the overhauled graphics, although some of the visuals look like they're from around 7 or 8 years ago, and it's EXTREMELY annoying driving around and trying to listen to my jams on Radio Los Santos and a song skips.

However, I did something I'm unsure if I ever accomplished in PS2 version...completed Wrong Side of the Tracks on the first try! Not only that, Big Smoke had killed all 4 Vagos before we were probably even halfway through the train tunnel...not a lot of backtracking back to his house and none of him scream-whining at me that "ALL WE HAD TO DO WAS FOLLOW THE DAMN TRAIN, C.J.!"

If so, you are definitely doing it wrong. Less than 10 hours in and I have two witcher contracts complete and am now stuck at a boss fight with one of the Wild Hunt members and only 3 potions for a very long fight.

Fought that fucker for 15-20 minutes last night, nearly had him, and then dead. Love the challenge of this game.

Ive been playing Risen on PC on Steam but the game is messed up and I can't see or read anything in the journal for quests. Apparently its because my windows font/display is set at 125% because otherwise I can't see anything, and it messes up the in game font if your resolution is at 125%.


Lame.

I beat that one easy, the wild hunt boss you're on I beat as well but it's much harder.

I can now tackle "a tower full of mice" although I'm sidetracked back to looking for the Barons daughter/wife. I noticed a lot of the contacts I was getting were for levels way ahead of where I'm at so I've put them on the back burner too.

I started on Blood and Broken Bones, but it didn't go so well. I find this entry to feel quite different and haven't nailed it down yet. I switch between it and the normal setting.

My problem with the wild hunt boss was that my silver sword broke :( Fixed that and the dude was a breeze.

Upgrading that shield sign early on has been a great help, especially when fighting larger groups of enemies.

Lemme tell ya, Escape Dead Island I thought would be cool, and for the most part it's been alright, but I dunno about this one part I'm on way towards the end after Cliff fights his zombie self and kills it...he goes to this surreal world where he has to fight through in order to apparently wake up. Problem is there's this huge room where a giant orb rises out of the ground and you have to kill normal (white) ghost zombies and try to kill the green (acid spitters) and a red one as well, but it seems the green guys keep respawning and damn red one can only be hurt by your attacks when he's moving, otherwise he uses his claw-like arms to block your attack. It's easier to die dozens of times in that 1 area than it is to pass it in a sane amount of time...wanna beat this fucker just to see the damn ending...UGH.

ClockShot 11-12-2015 07:54 AM

Platinum'd Mad Max last night. Probably be spending time on Destiny or picking up something down the road that's been released. Most likely AC: Syndicate.
