Just got an Xbox One yesterday, so playing what came with it, Ryse and Evolve. Also signed up for EA Access so been playing games from the vault. Also just finished The Walking Dead Season 2 on Steam and always mix in some WoW and CS:GO.

Getting myself hyped up for Arkham Knight so I recently played through Arkham Asylum again, and just started Arkham City back up, then I'll move onto Arkham Origins again. I know most of you probably could play through those in a few days, but I'm lucky to get an hour a week :) So by the time Knight comes out, I should be all ready for it!

Damn that was some good banta :)

 

Far Cry 4 for me.  Story isn't too compelling which is great for me because I don't feel driven to get in and finish it asap to find out what happened.  Loving picking up the game intermittently when I need a break from work and zone out for 30 mins or so in Kyrat.

 

Want to get onto Grey Goo next, then might go back to beyond earth and by then Witcher 3 should be out at which time friends, family and work will not see me for a couple of weeks.

Grabbed Farcry 4 on sale today and also the hardcore enhancement mod. Still downloading but got bored with Metal Gear Rising so I'll play this one for a bit. I hope something good I really like comes out this year. Maybe I'll get lucky and see a Fallout 4 this year or something.

Dota 2 for my regular gaming. Finished Dying Light a few days after release and still playing a bit of Dragon Age here and then which I'm finding a bit of a bore fest. I have done 100 hours or so the first week or two when it was released (and was loving it) but Uni got in the way. Trying to play it now and I have no clue what is happening and it just seems so slowwwwww :/

After finishing Dying Light (fun, 7/10) and almost beating DA Inquisition (90 hours in, and so bored of it now, due to wasting time on side missions)  I am back to far cry 4.   beat the story 50%.   looking forward to the rest.

 

 

 

i have to learn my lesson, but my gaming ADD always takes me on side quests, so much so, that, by the time i get back to the story, i overplayed the game, and cannot be bothered.

Inquisition is a perfect example. I did so many side quests, that I was exhausted and bored of it now.  

I tried to do final mission, but I am not strong enough to finish it. And I cannot be bothered to do more stuff to level up.

Should have chose a wizard not a rogue. Would have being much easier.

 

 

also,   90 hours!    many people might think it is OK, but it is a NEW RECORD for me. that is why i try to avoid RPGs...     I hate them, until I put enough time in it to get attached, and then I find it hard to quit.

I am so glad I am bored of DA:I now.   

 

World of Warcraft, 10 years strong, not quitting anytime soon ;p

 

I can only feel for WoW people,  the game never ends..   ###### me sideways it eats up ALL your spare time.

Throw your job in, divorce your partner, abandon your kids. Game on.

 

 

 

 

:rofl:

 

at the moment i have none of that.   so, no problems! :shiftyninja:

 

i used to be a penthouse party bachelor for way too long... i gave up that lifestyle.

but i am not willing to give up my video games.   this was what defined my childhood in the 90s and it will always be with me.

i only hope i can find i partneress that tolerates my video gaming habits.  

 I am back to far cry 4.   beat the story 50%.   looking forward to the rest.

 

 

Was walking past EBGames (Aus version of Gamestop) with a bag of beer and noticed FC4 Kyrat edition on special. I tried to resist, but since I really liked FC3 & Blood Dragon I grabbed FC4. Pagan Min statue is sitting above my monitor with his hand pyramid of evil contemplation right now.

I'm still playing Dragon Age 3: Inquisition. I started playing it when I received it just after its launch in Autumn. However with certain personal issues that have occurred over the past few months, I just haven't had the time to continue playing it. I'll jump on it every now and again, but I'm no longer sure exactly where I am in the story and what's going on! Maybe if I get the time in the future to play it I'll start it again, but I doubt it.

    • There might be some passive design improvements (cooling, etc), but I doubt they'd change the core performance spec of the hardware mid-generation when they've already got a new console in development.
    • State of Decay 3 is out in 2027, reveals Plague Nests with new co-op gameplay trailer by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A few months ago, Undead Labs broke its silence about the third entry in the State of Decay series since its announcement in 2020. Today, the studio had a brand-new trailer to reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase, finally giving players a look at the Unreal Engine 5-powered title. A broad 2027 release window is now attached to State of Decay 3 too. The studio confirmed that every scene seen in the gameplay trailer (except for the studio logo) released today is from the game with no cinematic footage. "The quality bar of the moment-to-moment experience is higher than anything we’ve achieved in Undead Labs’ history," says the studio. "State of Decay 3 is being built in Unreal Engine 5, and we’re creating better quality versions of what makes our game the survival sandbox it is, and the combat experience is really, really important to us, and I think you can see it coming through in this trailer." One new aspect of this upcoming entry is the Plague Nests. These are supposed to be dynamic, dungeon‑like enemy hubs with varied “personas” that change tactics each time one appears on a map. These areas will have the best loot in the game for players brave enough to tackle them. The combat system is being overhauled too, letting players do quick and power attacks depending on the situation. This isn't just on the player's side though, as zombies themselves now have multiple new types of behaviors depending on how fresh or decayed they are. "All of these play very differently, especially as you start getting outnumbered or when you’re making noise and running around and trying to save your rear end or the rear end of your friend next to you," adds the developer. Of course, settlement building and community management are massive parts of this third entry too. These are being further expanded with the cooperative focus, giving players much more freedom for playing together than in State of Decay 2. Players will even be able to split up and build settlements in different areas of the same map with different goals. Undead Labs confirmed that playtests are already ongoing for the title, and interested players can sign up to participate by heading over here once more slots open up ahead of the full release. State of Decay 3 is coming out on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Game Pass sometime in 2027.
    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
