What Games are you playing now??

[Peter.Steele]

Just finished Batman: Arkham Asylum this morning. Fun game, good gameplay mechanics, mildly entertaining storyline - probably more interesting if you're a Batman nerd.

Only real complaint was that it was too short. Steam says that I have 19 hours logged on it. Of that, probably only about 10-12 is actual game play. 1 or 2 hours were spent effing with trying to get my save game running on my desktop computer due to temperature issues on my laptop, and when that turned out to suck because ATI video cards don't do PhysX, I just went back to the laptop. Playing there, though, I'd play for an hour or two, then alt-tab to do something else for 30-60 minutes and let it cool down, so there's 6-8 hours where Steam thinks I was playing, but the game was paused and I was doing something else.


Waiting for Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood to finish loading now ... it's at about 98%. I know it's shorter than AC2, by a lot, but I really liked the gameplay and storyline, so I'm looking forward to this ...

Nada at the moment. Can't wait for Last of Us to come out though, looks promising.

I just finished playing Spec Ops: The Line... holy sh*t that was a good game! It's based off of "Heart of Darkness" and, thus by default, "Apocalypse Now"... and it is a mind-f***k!

I got used to the mindless campaigns of CoD and BF3, where you're just moving forward shooting the bad guys until the game ends... in Spec Ops: The Line, I started seriously questioning who exactly the bad guy was. The game intentionally f**ks with you... one objective seemed pretty straight forward and I completed it without hesitation... the result was one of the most horrific scenes I've ever seen in a video game.

As the game progresses, you and your two squadmates become visually bloodier, dirtier, and become gradually more aggressive and brutal in their commands... from calmly stating "target neutralized" when you kill an enemy in the beginning, to swearing, laughing, and yelling as you kill an enemy toward the end. And that's not even addressing the parts where you start to hallucinate!

I just hooked up my old NES, serious I have ps3 but pretty much just use it for blue ray. These new games are way to complicated and take up way too much time.

Playing?


"Plumbers Crack 3"

If you want to play, you'll need some pipe wrenches, some rusty leaky old pipes, and an under the house crawl space full of black widows.
C'mon over and I'll teach you the rules.

Check THIS out...

There was a beta or something that used the CRYSIS engine to make a MECH warrior game. I think it was called Mech Warrior legends or something. It looks REALLY cool.

Okay I am back to playing Skyrim...

yeah i heard of it, while the game mod is great, the learning curve is high and noobs just get pwned the instant they go out by the people that live in that game since inception.

I really miss my MW2. (Mech Warrior2) I enjoy the survivalist type of games set in the post apocalyptic future where you can kinda of build your own stuff. Sadly though that game had a pretty much linear game play. BUT THOSE ARENAS were HELLA fun to play in when that spot in the game came up...

I liked the different camoflauging you could do too. I figured that MWLiving Legends would give folks another single player version to play. I never figured the learning curve. I should go try it out. The graphics look cool though.

I wish I could make my own house in Skyrim and fortify it and build it up and stuff. They need a game like that. For the nestmaking killer in all of us...

I've got 4 achievements left in Binding of Isaac. Having a hard time trying to slog through what I've got left in LA Noire and Skyrim. Taking a long break from Battlefield 3 and SWTOR.

Honestly, this year's Steam Summer Sale was pretty lackluster though, so I haven't bought any more games that I don't have time to play (yet).

PC gaming seems to be in a slump right now, I'm looking forward to the next SimCity, Planetside 2, Rome Total War 2, and Watch Dogs to help freshen thigns up.

I've been playing Team Fortress 2 for about a year but lately I've hit addictive levels of time in-game. Had to force myself not to play today.

I just finished the new Lego Batman 2 to 100% this afternoon. Pretty huge step up from the other Lego games. Loved having full access to Gotham but didn't really enjoy the actual levels all that much. Felt very tedious.

Peter have you completed ALL of it, like including all side missions ans riddler challenges? Its a long game if you do everything.

Addicted to D3 right now. I'm really enjoying it.Do you know a game that looks like Dawn of Darkness? If so, what game? I have a browser mmorpg legend warrior by dovogame. both of the games require no download, but they are slightly different. Anyway,I recently play these games, hopefully my experience will help you.
