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.

: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.

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.

    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.

      Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.

      Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
