    I finished Shadow of Mordor over the weekend. I have just one achievement left and it's being a butt about letting me get it. Not sure I want to keep "grooming" war chiefs to try to drop level 25 runes much longer.

    I was hoping I would play Alien Isolation once I got my oculus but I'm having trouble getting it to play correctly.

    Shadow of Mordor was so much fun.

    Surprisingly I didn't like Alien Isolation. I thought it would be perfect since I loved Amnesia. Playing it with an Oculus Rift might be amazing though. Hope you can find a way to get it working.

    If I wanted to check out the Borderlands series, what's the best one to start with?

    Just start with the first one. BL2 has a couple of characters that continue the story line for BL1. You still may even be able to find some coop partner for BL1 even after all this time.
    Does it suck to play it alone? I have no friends :)

    Borderlands does't suck to play alone. It's actually fine if you like playing alone. It's just that if you like playing with others, if you can find a group of people to joke around with and play with it's much more fun. I've played enough BL1 and 2 with friends that it's tough for me to go back.

    Thanks for the info :) Well I went and bought Fallout 3 (since I liked New Vegas) so that should tide me over until...tomorrow :)

    That has enough content to hold you over for weeks! Unless you're playing 30 hours a day or close to it.

    Shadow of mordor was super fun. I only wish the difficulty stayed up the whole time. Whether it was because of the powers I was unlocking or just me getting used to the game, at some point things were just always easy to do and if not, I could easily get away from sticky situations.
  • I've been eyeballs-deep in Dragon Age: Inquisition. Man is this an awesome game! If you haven't got it yet, what are you waiting for? Don't walk...RUN...and go get a copy! Looks absolutely gorgeous on the new-gen consoles and the PC, and even on previous-gen hardware, it doesn't look half-bad (about on par with how DA: Origins and Skyrim looked on them.)

    It's probably the most "MMO-y" non-MMO I've played. Full-bodied quest/story system, crafting, meta-games galore, and you are rewarded for exploring! Going to be playing this one for weeks, if not months, to come.

    oh no i'm so jealous. :'( haven't played a dragon age game since 2, even though i picked up origins when ea was giving it away for free (one of the only benefits of keeping origin tbh), but every time the commercial pops on i just want it so badly. hopefully it'll run on my year-old hp once i get paid.

    meanwhile, i continue plowing my way through deadly premonition.

    I have my copy reserved, I just haven't picked it up since I won't have play time until NEXT weekend, like after TG. Le Sigh :( I'm glad to hear the rumors of it's awesomeness have not been exaggerated though.

    Woah, Dragon Age. The videos look fantastic. Though I still haven't played the first one!
    I'm a very slow player - I used to play about a dozen things at once and rotate between them. That was a bad idea; I'd forget how to play things and what was going on in between sessions, and it would take me many months to finish anything.

    Now I'm down to one single-player game at a time, in addition to various multiplayer things.

    I'm counting Guild Wars 2 as my current singleplayer, to finish the main campaign with one of my characters. Been dawdling around with that game for the past two years. I'm on the final stretch. It's been awesome, but I'm itching to move on.

    Next will be... Car Mechanic Simulator! I think it looks super cool and I don't know much about cars or mechanicing, but I do like fixing things so maybe I'll take to it.

    I'm also determined to learn Smite and focus on that as my new multiplayer. I play a little League of Legends but I'm not crazy about it. I figure Smite is different enough as a MOBA that I'll enjoy it in a different way. Unlike when I started learning DoTA2 and it felt redundant to already knowing LoL.

    I tend to toggle what I play; Depending on spare time. My kids play Wizards101 and SWTOR and I will play and help them on their quests. (Although, I stink at the whole PvP and prefer the PvE in a game)
    I tend to play games from Assassin's Creed, F.E.A.R., Thief, Guild Wars, Fallout, LOTR, Star Wars, and Elder Scrolls

    I think I might put in some Destiny time, but Shadow of Mordor should arrive on Friday. I snagged a deal on Amazon last night for Shadow of Mordor +the LOTR extended editions for 55. So for $5 less than the Gamestop by my house, I can get the LOTR extendeds in blu ray.

    Yes please.

    The steam sale got me! I bought a few new games. I've been playing The Long Dark and 7 Days to Die. Both pretty fun.

    I've been pretty focused on WoW since the expansion so that's all I've been really playing.
    Otherwise I've poked my nose in Depth, Second Life, and Torchlight II.

    I am going to be streaming myself playing Dragon Age Origins starting next year since I have never played it before and my holiday is going to be a tad too busy to get it in beforehand.
  • I'm also the victim of the latest Steam sale. Got a couple of gifts (original Borderlands, South Park: Stick of Truth), gave a few gifts (Final Fantasy remakes), and have been hovering feverishly over a few more (Tomb Raider Collection, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow series.) Plus, still neck-deep in Dragon Age: Inquisition (50+ hours so far.)

    Oops, just checked...I waited too long, sales off. :s

    SAME. that black friday deal was too much to resist. there goes my three year clean streak.

    on top of that, my steam sale haul this time around came out to payday 2, dark souls (finally), goat simulator, the evil within, and gta san andreas to relive my childhood. o:)

    Right now I have actually been going old school with a game called mount and blade warband, and just now discovered the mod community and just how far a lot of them have expanded the gameplay. I bought GTA 5 for ps3 on a sale but my system died while installing updates, probably going to get it for PS4 in a week or two.

    I've been dabbling with FIFA 15 recently. Not online against other players. I suck. XD I only play offline.

    Howdy! New to the group and I thought I'd chime in. Currently playing Plants vs Zombies on my ps4, Kingdom Hearts 1.5 on ps3, and all my pleasant little time wasters on my phone. Seeing you all talking about WoW...I miss it. Played before my kidlets were born (almost 3 and 10 months), but now there is just not enough hours in the day.

    Sold the PS3 a few months back so had missed GTA Online a bit. Back at it now on PS4 and I love it.
    Also in DriveClub when it's working. If I feel like smashing stuff up and throwing controllers around I play Spelunky, lol

    Add me, (JackDusty) or on here

    Well having a newborn hampers the gaming a little bit, but I've realized I can play games like Wasteland 2 and Shadowrun Returns with one hand so I've been plaything those lately.

    I adore that stupid Spelunky game lol. The monthly freebies we have gotten through the PlayStation Plus have been great; I'm more of a puzzler type gamer and the free games have catered well to that.

    Feel ftee to add me on PSN Em_Bright_Eyes.

    Currently playing through Age of Mythology, the recently fixed-up version on Steam of the classic Microsoft RTS. The campaign is really fun so far (about halfway through). If you like RTS games, I'd definitely recommend this one. It's the culmination and most polished of the Age of Empires II style of gameplay, before they sort of chucked it for AoE III.

    Did you play the original? Does it still hold up? I pre-ordered AOM but never actually got around to playing it. AOM was my favorite RTS of all time.

    I played the original _very_ briefly, like maybe through the tutorial. I spent many, many hours on the original Age of Empires II though.

    I guess the new version is supposed to have a little better graphics, but I don't remember the old version well enough to tell, actually. The best part about it is that you don't have to edit any config files and screw around to get a modern widescreen resolution to work. The newer releases of Age of Empires II and Rise of Nations are great too, IMO.

    I'd say it holds up, yeah! That's pretty subjective, but I enjoy this style of RTS a lot more than say, Starcraft II. I paid $7-something for it on the last Fall sale and I'm very happy with it.

    Buried in Dragon Age Inquisition and will be there for awhile. Besides the Elder Scrolls series, DA games have been my favorite of all time. So far, DA:I has been everything I wanted.

    Currently all my free time has been devoted to Hearthstone... I don't know what it is about it as I am not a huge TCG fan, but I find myself wanting to play more and find different variations of decks and sorts plus it is a nice challenge to see how high in ranked I can get each month.
