i can't remember all of them, but the atmosphere was not right,  the missions were less fun,  there were less random missions (like remote helicopter), the setting was off....

 

not sure really.    the GTA III games (well, the original was ok,  but the 2 - vice city and san andreas)  were so much fun!    after 10 hours in GTA IV, i did not feel much fun.

 

 

original Mafia game was amazing too (another game similar to gta)     mafia II was crap though...

different gameplay.. well not crap, it was still ok, but after setting your expectation by the game you love.. it was not as fun.

 

Just watched a few vids etc for sleeping dogs, and from tomorrow I think I will be playing it lol! Its still ?20 on steam though but it does look good.

 

I will maybe play GTA IV for a while to see what I think before buying anything. :) im too impatient to wait for GTA V, I just want something "like it" that I haven't played before haha

Currently playing Final Fantasy X on my trusty old PS2, trying to do all the things I didn't do when I played through as a kid. Just finished getting all of the Al Bhed Primers about 10 minutes ago, :D

So many new experiences on this play-through that I didn't get last time. Baaj temple, the al bhed primers, it's almost like playing it again for the first time because last time I played was 10 or more years ago and I just burned through, killed Sin and called it quits.

Smash Bros. Wii U

 

It takes quite a bit of getting used to playing with the gamepad but slowly and surely I'm getting better with it. Would definitely rather have the GameCube adapter so may have to buy one down the road.

 

Game is fantasitc though :wub: Can't decide who to main but Toon Link and Diddy are favourites.

Grid Autosport

Enslaved (chasing steam achievements)

Walking Dead Season 1

Typing of the Dead Overkill (gotta keep those wpm over 90)

Lately all I've been playing is Chaos Reborn. It's quite addicting. Not recommended for people who dislike random chance or chess. It's skill-based but bad luck can completely ruin you even against the worst players. It's pretty well all about risk assessment. Still though, I'm addicted lol.

Picked up Call of Duty 4 recently on PC again, been a long time since I played it and the PC community is still fairly active. Great fun.

 

Also playing:

 

Mario Kart 8

Crypt of the Necrodancer

Assetto Corsa

Slowly playing through Halo The Master Chief Collection doing split screen co-op at weekends with a mate.

 

I must admit the re-mastered Halo 1 and 2 look stunning. However we had both forgot how boring and tedious a lot of the Halo and Halo 2 campaign is. In Halo 1 theirs so much copy and pasting in the level design. I remember now why I only originally owned the first two games for the multiplayer.

 

I am looking forward to getting some 4 player co-op on Halo 3 and 4 going though, i loved the campaign on both those games.

I'm going through Kingdom Hearts  1.5 + 2.5 Remix in order.

Currently just started Kindgom Hearts 2.5. Also trying to get close to 100% on each. It has been years since i played any of these. So it is like a new game to me.

 

On PC i'm currently This War of Mine. Brilliant game and such a bleak tone. It even makes me feel depressed playing it :laugh:

A game has never really done that to me. Especially the many survival games out there.

Started attempting to get though my list of shame (Steam) as of late.

 

Playing:

Final Fantasy IV (Steam)

Final Fantasy VII (Steam) - Just gearing up to beat Ruby & Emerald.

Final Fantasy VIII (Steam)

Final Fantasy XIII (Steam)

Final Fantasy X (PlayStation 2) - Remaster arrived today for the PS3 but mine needs to be replaced or BGA re-balled now (Bloody Crysis 3!).

Crysis Warhead (Steam)

Crysis 3 (PS3) - Until freeze of death (Curses to RoHS!)

NFS Hot Pursuit (Steam)

 

Completed recently:

Crysis 2 (Steam)

Crysis (Steam)

NFS Most Wanted (PS3)

Metal Gear Solid 2: Subsistence (PlayStation 2) (PlayStation 20th thing)

Metal Gear Solid (PlayStation) (PlayStation 20th thing)

Finally getting around to completing some 360 games I've had lying around. 

 

Played through Dead Island a few days ago and really liked it, and massively late to the party but getting through The Walking Dead series. Loving it so far (playing through Episode 4). Can't wait to get through Season 2 too!

Elite Dangerous.. still 

I love these system invites where you're supposed to receive an important communique when you get there, except the invite doesn't show up in your quest log and you can go there but don't get contacted at all.

 

I'm on Elite: Dangerous and Warframe myself.  Mostly.  And some Mass Effect 3 MP, which seems to be surprisingly still going strong.

  • Fable 3 (PC)
  • Sonic 3 & Knuckles (SEGA Mega Drive)
  • Alex Kidd in Miracle World (SEGA Power base Converter + SEGA Mega Drive)
  • Cut The Rope 2 (Android)

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
