REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it
By Starling
Posted on 06/15/13
E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

DAILY MANIFESTO

What Are You Playing? November 24th, 2012

Posted on Saturday, November 24 @ 10:30:00 Eastern by

The last of the turkey and stuffing is digesting, so I plan on spending the rest of this weekend catching up on the year's biggest games. Chief among them is Assassin's Creed III (of the multiplayer variety) and a heaping helping of Dishonored. Anyone else playing catch up?

More importantly, did you buy any games yesterday on the cheap? I'm more of a Cyber Monday guy, myself. Why go out and deal with the crowds and possibility of trampling when you can sit at home in your underwear, sip your coffee, and shop online (aka the GR staff's usual Monday routine)?

What are you playing?

    Been enjoying the Mr. Torgue DLC for Borderlands 2 over the past few days. Dear God is it awesome. Every word that comes out of Torgue's mouth is comedy gold.

    I went out in the crowds at 9PM to get a great deal on a PS3. I was able to eat dinner with my family, so "don't be hatin." I went to GameStop and nobody was there! I see all these cars parked and they were all heading to Wal-Mart. Needless to say, because I said it couple times here, I got a new PS3.

    Whoa, I haven't seen you playing DCUO! I'm always up for it, just made a new character yesterday. Hopefully you're a hero, villain missions are boring.

    I created a hero as well. I called him "Top Assassin", because he's wearing a top hat. Anyways, I was browsing PS Store for free stuff and came across that. We should definitely do it!

    I had not had much time to play over Thanksgiving due to having family over, and my gaming room kind of became a family gathering room.

    I have been playing P4 Golden (such a freaking great game) and have gotten into Hitman Absolution right now. Also got The Hitman Trilogy on PC for free since i had Absolution preorderd from Gamestop.

    Halo 4 and BL2. Bought 3 copies of Awesomenauts on steam so i'll be playing that soon with friends hopefully. Is it as awesome as the name implies?

    Also been watching sherlock and merlin on netflix.

    Bought Max Payne 3 at Target on Black Friday, so playing that. I think I will have killed the population of Earth by the time I finish the campaign.

    That's good. I was hoping it would turn out good. I got a new PS3 and I don't want to be the only person playing it. I want my friends to play it too, so I bought another controller. Maybe next payday, I get this game and more controllers.

    Still just playing Halo 4...... yep. Although I did pre-order my Wii U a few days ago, now I just have to hope that the update doesn't turn my console into a vegetable. Also when I play the Wii U on christmas, i will be playing New Super Mario Bros, Assassin's Creed 3 and I still haven't decided if i'm going to get ZombiU, reviews haven't been great.

    Shadow of the Colossus (PS2). It's the second time I play this game, and while my first time was many years ago this second playthrough still feels like playing some sort of boss rush mode. That is the game's only fault, the world is empty, no sense in exploring it again 'cause I already know I'm not gonna find anything. So the magic of the first time playing it is just not there.
    I wish they would do a prequel to this game, one in which this amazing world is populated and where we get to find out why it's now deserted and filled with colossi.
    Also playing Pinky and The Brain in The Masterplan.

    GW2, Hitman: Absolution, PlanetSide 2, and I'm on the fence about F1 2012. It's on the Steam sale, and I need a PC racing game. 2010 was great

    If you like shumps then it's awesome. I love them. It's a gorgeous game too. It is pretty short but that's par for the course for this genre. It's about replaying and maxing your score. It's well worth the $10 price tag, especially since it's cross-buy.

    Gemini Rue, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (The zone keeps calling me back), Ghost Master, and I've trying out some of the new maps in Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. I've tried to play Penumbra: Overture but GOD DAMN that game is scary.

    Just finished ACIII (great game, but glitchy, and terrible ending), and I've been motoring through The Walking Dead. This game has emotionally devastated me on multiple occasions, and I can't stop playing it. It's like an abusive relationship...

    Also, I picked up Dishonored and Sleeping Dogs on the cheap on Thanksgiving, I can't wait til they get here so I can fire them up! Anything to help me forget [Walking Dead spoilers] my beloved Carley getting plugged in the face.

    Im back at the rig, so you could say I am playing with a multi million dollar operation. But as this was related to gaming, I will have to state what I WAS playing.

    I was playing Dishonored but am trying not to kill anything. I picked Hard difficult and as a first person shooter, it is hard not to want to kill people when you have sword out. After many deaths, reloads, I opted to switch to RE6.
    I like RE6 a lot. It is much closer to RE4 but not as dark/scary. It is enjoyable, but I do find myself frustrated. Mostly after a cut scene; then I walk through a door, then a load screen, then a cut scene. Honestly, I do not have to walk through that FUCKING DOOR for you to move on to the next part. I have not started playing mercenary mode yet, though looking forward to it.
    I bought "The Unfinished Swan". I just beat the first mission/part/chapter thing. It pretty awesome so far, I enjoy it a lot, but will save it to play with my dad watching as he enjoys watching me play those games.

    I got word CAPPED!!!.

    Played demos,

    Need for Speed - Enjoyed but wont buy.
    Payday, the Heist - Enjoyed, but wont buy since it is old and is heavy on multiplayer, might buy a next one. Got me excited for watching Heat, Point Break, and playing GTA5.

    Black Ops II League Play...got promoted to the Masters Division. I pretty much only get 10 ladder points per game, so I don't think I'm gonna finish in 1st place. Currently 5th out of 200.

    Hitman: Absolution and nothing else. Really REALLY like it. Was nervous, some reviews were downright negative, but I just don't see it. The disguise system is kinda annoying but you get used to it and you use the awareness arrows it works well. I think my biggest gripe is that the missions are broken up and don't take place on one map, and thats a small gripe.

    Beat Halo 4 solo on legendary. Now I think I'm going to make my way through a few XBLA games I picked up on sales and never got around to playing... first up is Comic Jumper. And I ordered a used Black Ops 2 for $35, so I might be checking that out soon. First CoD I've bought since the first modern warfare!
