What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

I'll be getting a PS4 for Fallout, I've wanted one for a while but never had the voice in the head saying "you should get one now for this game". I can't say I think it'll be the most amazing game in the world but shit, I reckon I'll love it.

 

I know there's probably a selection of other games which are well worth having the PS4 for but this just tips the boat.

Just go left as soon as you leave the vault. Makes for a fun and interesting "off the rails" experience.

 

That's pretty much what I did, although not intentionally.

Yeah, more DLC gatekeepery. I don't really get annoyed by DLC stuff but that one felt kinda annoying. I mean, you're not even downloading anything extra, just the ability to go to level 30. Shady imo.

It's why I always wait for a couple of years and get the 'ultimate' version of the game with all the DLC thrown in, at about a quarter of the price of the original release RRP

tekken finals at evo were pretty good.

 

 

capcom held a panel for sf5 today. seems they're doing a complete 180 regarding their dlc model. game will launch w/16 characters but will constantly be patched adding new characters/stages, all of which can be earned by playing the game and earning "fight money." of course you'll have the option to speed up the process by buying the added content outright for real money

Capcom will eventually fuck it up despite the free DLC announcement. Just wait and watch.

also, why would they release a fallout 4 gameplay video of you leaving the vault for the first time? spoiling one of the most fun / interesting moments in any fallout game. i know i don't have to watch it but damn, i just don't have that sorta self control.

 

 

Modern trailers have to ruin and spoil everything today it seems, but it is probably hard making that moment a secret and a big surprising thing, since we all know there's going happen. But it annoying nonetheless.

 

I wish I had to ability to media blackout on things I'm excited for, nothing better than playing something where you literally don't know what to expect.

Played a bunch of The Witcher 3 yesterday. That 7 gb update sure did its thing. The framerate seems better and the inventory is faster and easier to use.

 

Also, did the update do something to the amount of XP you receive? I leveled up a whole bunch yesterday during only a couple of missions.

well it was decent i guess, but a huge let down. i love bethesda and their ES series. and yes i know that the studio spended countless of hours to develop comeback for the fallout, but in the end the game was just ok. like it was made by some cheap game studio. they could have created something really great, the game only touched the surface of bethesda potential. lol like i know something about making games.

 

 

 

How much did you play of it? - Honestly I find hard to imagine you wouldn't find any sort of enjoyment out of it if giving it a proper chance. The start of the game is a bit slow and boring, but once you leave the vault, it really opens up and is amazing on every level, just the sheer amount of exploration in that game.

 

And just that whole moment when you leave the vault, that's one of those gaming moment that's pretty spectacular and unforgettable and has kind of stuck with me.

 

i think two weeks through on the first playthrough and a week on a second. so i gave it two chances haha. i had the goty versio of it, though never tried those dlcs. just played the base game. fallout 3 have a slow start? dude you haven't seen anything. imo the game set you up quite fast.

are you talking about Fallout 3? because I don't agree that it was "just ok" at all.

that's fine with me. :) i grew up playing 1 and 2. that kind of explain my view.

 

 

that alone explains your view? fallout 1 and 2 are two of my all time favourites (well, 2 is anyway) and i was a total black isle fanboy back in the day, but i still loved fallout 3 and new vegas.

 

 

i guess you're more open than i am. i just don't like the fact that bethesda made fallout a mindless fps with a lousy guests. they could have done a great rpg. i saw fallout 3 as a mod for oblivion.

ofc. there might be some nostalgic yearning for the old fallouts and black isle on my side, and the 'golden era of crpgs'. but yeah new vegas is good, the mood it much different in it than in 3. shame i've played it so little.

PUT ALL THE POCKY IN THE BAG OR THE PIKACHU GETS IT, CAPICE CASHIER-KUN?!

 

When I get a bit more money + parts, I plan to modify the mask so it's even more hideous. Then my reign of terror will begin for real...

finally got online with rocket league, thought i'll have a couple of games before going to sleep - played for 5 hours straight and really need to take a shower now. this shit is the shit you guys.

The new SF character looks like a shitty 2edgy character ala Evil Ryu, but his gameplay looks pretty fun.

I tried to finish this game and was twice thwarted by memory card issues. Hopefully, third time's the charm! It's my kind of game: you level up by eating cake.

Amazing game, I loved it. The art style and concept were very unique.

 

They made another awesome game with similar art style for the Vita, though it's name I'm not coming up with at the moment...

 

oh yeah they made both dragon's crown and murumasa

Its true.. This game is even more videogame-crack-like than bloodborne :p terrible case of 'one more game'...

 

Invited some peeps round sunday to try out local multiplayer on splitscreen and it took a while to organise on account of being stuck in online multiplayer and not wanting to leave..

(((Local multiplayer splitscreen is a lot of fun ... ))

yeah, crack is a good analogy, it's all fun and games now but i'm really afraid of getting deeper and competitive with it, controller-at-monitor-throwing-self-harming-profanity-screaming bouts are not what i'd like to have at this point of my mental development.
