I have been pleasantly surprised, it is very enjoyable.

yeah, I clicked on a let's play of it a few weeks back out of boredom, and it's actually pretty good to watch.

I played a bit of remember me on PS+ really wanted to like the game and loved the concept but I struggled to get into it.

Completely agree with this. I played a couple hours of it with my girlfriend's brother, and we spent the entire time destroying other ships and finding islands. We only did one actual story mission XD

Is there any sort of crazy wall climbing and acrobatics like in Assassin's Creed 2?

GTA 5 and AC4
AC4 is really meta and weird. The framing device is odd andlike i said meta.

Welp got into and am addicted to starbound...

^ I didn't expect to... I bought Starbound, Skyrim with all dlc (hurray for mods), Fallout 3 (never played), Fallout New Vegas, and a game I can't remember this second. I was hyped for all but the first. What do I get addicted to? Starbound

TMNT Out of the Shadows

It got terrible reviews but I am really enjoying it.

I blew through Assassins Creed 4 last week, finished the game yesterday. Great story, it was my first AC game, always meant to try em out. The multiplayer is kinda fun too.

I think next on my list will be the Tomb Raider update for Xbone in January.. missed it when it first came out.

Beat ZombiU. Totally enjoyed it, now Im messing around with survival and whatnot. Pretty awesome game IMO, definitely a must have on WiiU. Im thinking of picking up Super Mario 3D worlds after my next check or two. That game looks the gak and its been getting insanely good reviews as well.

During that time, Ive been messing around in Disney infinity with the kids. Pretty neat idea and a huge improvement over Skylanders.

Been playing Race the Sun since it finally got greenlit on steam, it's a really fun endless racer. Also planning on restarting on Skyrim.

Still playing Enemy Within... don't have a powerful enough psyker to progress to the final mission.

In other news: Feth Sectopods. Takes my entire team to take one of them out, and I've got two particle cannons!!!

You just need to make the PSI armour and slap it on your favorite psyker.

Rise of Legends. Oh god that's fun!

Yes Canuck is right. Sectopods only got this hard in 'enemy within'. They were never so hard in enemy unknown. Now for whatever reason damage done to them is lessened and heat ammo doesn't seem to do much of sh*t to them. In fact they used to be about as strong as as slower version of the mechtoid. Good thing about mechtoids is that if you have a heat ammo heavy with a heavy plasma and you have the ability where using the main weapon first doesn't end your heavy's actions (and therefore gives you two shots) then you can basically take a mechtoid down with just one heavy.

Yeah still plenty of that. The city's don't have the same huge epic ness as Italy in ac2 but the free running Is still good. You can use trees now to help run between buildings.

Running along the mast of one ship to another or swinging across to take out someone on another ship is fun.

Sadly they seem to have done away with most of the chances to do knife in the crowd assassinations, which were probably my favourite parts of the older games,m

From what I remember, the main character doesn't even like using the hidden blade, right?

Was just finishing up downloading the baldurs gate reloaded mod for NWN2 and watching a tutorial on it. Looks like the guys did a fantastic job porting the campaign to the NWN2 engine and 3.5ed. Hopefully it will be much more interesting than the NWN campaigns

Wait what. Can you elaborate, i'm a bit fuzzy due to some kind of winter illness, but some kind of baldur's gate in the NWN2 game? I'll have to google it later, but I always love sharing thoughts on classics like BG. Is there a Minsc for instance? And boo? If there's minsc and boo and you, surely it has to be excellent

His swords are the default but I don't remember them saying e didn't like it. He seems an expert in them the moment he recives them though.

Ah, okay. Just curious since I didn't get to play a whole lot of it.

You may be right and I just missed it.

There seem to be far less weapons in this game too. So far the only permanent Melee weapons are fists duel swords and hidden blades.

Got Tomb raider and Batman Origins at Christmas, played a little Tomb Raider, seems really good. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who's curious about it or on the fence. Even from the little i've played.

However i'm still trying to get through Darksiders 2. It's a funny thing, i find the lore and story Utterly uninteresting but there's something really compelling about finding out what the next relic or boss is going to look like. I couldn't care less about what 'the Archon' or 'the Lord of Bones' has to say for himself but i am curious to see him etc.

Now that i've written them down it's funny to see three Gear-Gated Action Adventure games (Or 'metroidvania games' if you don't know much about games). I think i'm gonna be severely burnt out on that style of game soon.

Really enjoying State of Decay.

I second this - I was on the fence for along time, and I 100% loved it. Even the ending was super gratifying.

Playing Saints Row IV and Payday 2... enjoying the hell out of those games

Also the NBA 2k series can go feth itself...

Just completed AC: Brotherhood(only took 32 hours lol), still got a few things to wrap up before moving onto Revelations.

Same as last post really, just different AC game on the horizon lol

About to go play Killzone 3 some more.

I'm at the point where I can finish X-Com (just send someone into the Galloping Gollop Chamber), but I choose not to. I want 100 meld to upgrade my second MEC to the highest level, then I'll go in with my Alpha Team.
