Horizon is what I'm hyped for. Looks so cool.

Super Mario RPG came out recently for the Wii U Virtual Console. This is something I've been wanting to play for way too long.

Posted: **Sat Jul 09, 2016 1:22 pm**

I should have taken a television from the garbage when there was one.

That's cool, but I barely have time to wipe my ass these days.

Posted: **Sun Dec 18, 2016 8:17 pm**

I've played a ton of AoE2 in recent memory with both of the recent expansions.

Posted: **Mon Dec 19, 2016 1:10 pm**

I still play Civ 5 religiously and my computer doesn't support Civ 6 so...

Posted: **Mon Jan 02, 2017 2:17 pm**

Has anyone played Oxenfree? Holy bananas. A shorter version of games in the Life is Strange vein.

it looks hipster flavoured

As for me, after all these years, I'm finally playing Super Mario RPG again, even if in small chunks at a time. What a game.

Posted: **Fri Jan 06, 2017 11:04 am**

I would play AoE2 with y'all in a heartbeat. Could be competitive or cooperative.

I have all three new expansions though so catching up might be expensive.

I assume you got it on Steam? I may have to do that... just have to figure out where the money for it is coming from.

I've just discovered a full-game length "mod" of Fallout 2 (my favorite game ever) called "Fallout 1.5" set between the events of 1 and 2. I am nerdgasming all over my laptop right now just thinking about it. It's isometric and everything.

Posted: **Sun Jan 22, 2017 6:38 pm**

If anyone has played Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, i need to know what you thought of the ame, because i freaking loved it. Not to mention the soundtrack is amazing

Posted: **Sun Jan 29, 2017 3:13 pm**

Alright, nutella, come over here and talk the Witness!

I haven't actually quite clocked it yet. There are a few black obelisks that I've finished but a few I haven't (one in particular, the one near the ruins in the desert, I'm a long way off).

I'm trying to be relatively spoiler-free, but what I love most about it is the moments of realisation that you get.

Yeah my housemates and I still haven't entirely finished but we've done most of it and it's amazing. The eureka moments are great and really fun to do with a group of people. And we've had long nerdy interpretive discussions about all the multi-layered metaphors in how the game is constructed, and in how it teaches you to think in "puzzle language," and all that.

I forgot how good Donkey Kong Country 2 is.

And I'm not referring to any smartphone apps.

It's also really fucking hard.

Though Returns is even harder.

No kidding, right? I never did beat it. Trying to do that off and on now, but I'll need luck.

I've been playing games from old consoles. Suikoden has been monopolising my time since last week.

How has the Nintendo Switch been out for 24 hours and none of you are saying peep about it?

I can't speak for anybody else, but we didn't buy it. Too poor.

Posted: **Sun Mar 05, 2017 9:27 pm**

I have spare money to buy it, but it's so ridiculously expensive in my country I refuse to buy it on launch on principle.

Posted: **Sun Mar 12, 2017 11:05 pm**

Anyone playing Breath of the Wild yet? My housemates have been playing it (on our Wii U) and it's SO GOOD. Fucking gorgeous art/aesthetics, really really cool mechanics + puzzles, even more cool stuff. Beautiful, fantastically crafted game. I don't really have much familiarity with previous Zelda games other than some passing knowledge but this is a goddamn work of art.

I want it so badly, but unfortunately have other priorities. Maybe one of these days I can just take a week off of work, hole up in my house, spend a few hundred on a switch and Zelda, and play for 18 hours a day 9 days in a row.

...

Wishful thinking.

So I have been pretty balls deep in some really good games.
Nioh was great love the combat and everything about it. It was kinda difficult at first but I never played a dark souls game before. Once I figured out the combat it was on and crackin.

Mass Effect Andromeda - I haven't beaten it year but getting close. I like this game but there are some bugs they need to fix. It's a combat is fun and the story is great it really reminded me that we are just specks of sand in the universe.

Last but not least

Horizon Zero Dawn- It's truely an amazing game in my book. Set in apocalypse like future. You are a girl named Alloy, and your whole goal was to figure out what happened to the people that were on the earth 100 of years before you are. The people like us that are now not there because machine dinosaurs are roaming the earth killing anything that comes near then. I quickly became a master of the bow and arrow striking down any mechanical beast they got near me.The combat is a lot of fun. The story was well told and it was definitely worth checking out.

Rise of the Tomb Raider- it's the second game in the Tomb Raider revamp and it's so much fun. From the combat to the puzzles and even the music and sound effects. It all makes for one hell of a game and had me saying Nathan Drake who?

Posted: **Mon Apr 17, 2017 9:47 pm**

I don't know how horizon end up before tomb raider but I'm on my phone so I might have hit something lol. What has everyone else been playing?

Posted: **Wed May 24, 2017 5:30 pm**

I wanna bring this thread back to life!! So is there anything that people are playing or have played recently that's worth talking about? I just finished the new Mass Effect game. Before that was Horizon Zero Dawn. I have Nioh sitting around waiting to be beat and just finished the story of Injustice 2.

YAAAASSS Horizon Zero Dawn is amaze-balls. I haven't played it in a bit cuz i've been playing my friend's copy, but a very fun game i'm enjoying so far. Also been playing the Crash Trilogy. I don't remember the game being so hard, but it's "fun" regardless. The lack of an easy infinite lives glich early game is kinda killing me.

I keep waiting for gamefly to send me crash. Also can wait to get jax and daxter.

I am absolutely intrigued by this:

Good to hear. I definitely will try to do that myself one of these days. Need to replay Earthbound again too, because why not.
