I got through most of Oblivion stealthing. OK, it's still easier in Skyrim with the correct perks. I mean, if you can sneak right up to someone and have the right gloves and dagger X30 damage is really OP compared to Oblivion's X6, but that's why I restricted myself to bows in Skyrim.
Still, fancy playing as mainly illusionist with miinor destruction and restoration abilities next time I play.

Spent 8 hours yesterday playing Spore. Damn that game is addictive. Only picked it up since I managed to get it for £10 because of Origins Halloween sale otherwise I wouldn't have bothered. Just need to spend another 2 hours playing it and its been worth it haha. May consider getting the expansion for it.

Skyrim is just the game that keeps on giving for me. I cant recommend Sneak/Illusion/Pickpocket enough, turns the game on it's head and allows for near fully non-lethal play. I levelled up my Illusion and Pickpocket by stealing my gold Back from the illusion trainer  .
The only thing i havent done in Skyrim is Enchanting, Alchemy and Smithing i dont really like these Skills as they seem to only exist to be exploited.
Speaking of other favorites i too love the bow/sneak + Aura Whisper, never gets old picking guys off, although thanks to some OP loot its again a little too easy. My last 30+ character is Block/One Hand/Light Armour/Restoration + become Ethereal, Have a fun tactic where i use Become ethereal if i am low health, run away while charging Fast healing and Cast it when the ethereal runs out. He also Eats ALOT of vegetable Soup.

Also won't touch Bioshock 3, despite having just read the book "Bioshock: Rapture" which set up how Andrei Ryanov built Rapture in the first place and how "Frank Fontaine" started the splicers and set it all tumbling down in an effort to put himself in Ryan's place. The reason I won't touch BS3 - the copy of bioshock 2 I bought corrupet my Bios and it was only due to me being friends with the IT guy where I worked that restored my PC to a usable condition.
Also getting annoyed with Batman: Arkham City, and don't know if it's my keyboard or what, but I just can't get Batman to slide, so am stuck in the steelmill and can't get out. Anyone able to confirm if this is a bug of some sort and I need to get the game patched? I know it has told me I need to update my graphics drivers, and will do this as soon as I can get connected again, but wonder if there is more to it than that. Love the rest of it, but this is starting to make me paranoid about new games.
Jeez. I know this is heresy, but you could get a console.......

Playing M.A.V. from BombDog Studios. Essentially a Chromehounds fan with a background in Videogame design decided to go all Minecraft on that sucker, and is making his own Modular Mecha game using Alpha/Beta buyin and on his own time. It's pretty cool so far, though very, very early in development.

I should have left him there. He had served his purpose. He owed me nothing - yet he gave himself to me willingly. Why? I know not. He is nothing more than a pathetic human. An inferior race. A mon-keigh. But still I broke off my wings so that I might carry him easier. I took him from that place, into the snowstorm where our tracks will not be found. He is heavy. And he is dying. And he is slowing me down. But I will save him. Why? I know not. He is still warm. I can feel his blood ebbing across me. For every beat of his heart, another, slight spill of heat. The heat blows away on the winter wind. His blood is still warm. But fading. And I have spilled scarlet myself. The snow laps greedily at our footsteps and our lifeblood, covering them without a trace as we fade away.

Not heresy at all. Don't have the money at the moment to get a current gen console, even second hand, love my PS2 and am playing through all levels of "Guitar Hero" and "Guitar Hero 2" trying to get perfect on every song in every set before moving up a difficulty level and starting all over again. surprised myself recently by taking out some songs on Hard, something I have never been able to do before. Thought I would be rusty as hell since I hadn't played for over 2 years, and now doing better than ever.
Also have "Need For Speed: Most Wanted" on the original PS2 version, and been playing that a bit too.

World of Tanks. Messing with the French and British lines right now, and looking forward to the Chinese next month.
Halo 4, though not nearly as often as I should be.
Killzone 1, as part of the Killzone Trilogy, though it's been mostly pushed aside by Halo 4.
Soon, Black Ops II and Skyrim will kick (back) into the rotation.

I've noticed that there's been a lack of an AC3 related threads yet in the subforum. I'm curious - has anyone else been as disappointed with the game I have? I feel as though I've wasted $60 in buying it.

Not me. I know I said earlier in the thread that I liked Brotherhood and Revelations better, but I take that all back. To me, ACIII is the best game in the series.

Thats a fair claim, I can't tell whether AC3 is good or not since I don't have it.
I'v been playing a lot of Guild Wars 2. Just completed Kessex Hills area. Should probly switch games so I don't burn out like most MMOs I have tried.

Skyrim, bombing around on horseback swinging a battleaxe is great fun - oddly, the only thing the "jousting" approach doesn't work on is mammoths - they're very good at anti-cavalry duty, it seems.
