What Are You Playing? October 6th, 2012

FTL, Torchlight, Bit.Trip Runner, and the Xcom demo. Also trying out the rest of the games from the Humble Indie Bundle but nothing that's grabbed my attention yet.

FTL is solid gold.

Just finished Warhammer Space Marine. The cutscenes are a lot more epic then your normal cutscenes and they are all rendered in the engine so the whole game at a buttery smooth 120fps made the game a real enjoyable experience.

Now Im playing Red Faction Armageddon and waiting for dishonored.

All my friends really love Space Marine, not sure if it would hold my attention though. Dishonored is going to rock!

Space marine is a really overlooked game. Its brilliant. Nothing less.

I love Relic due to CoH's, though the demo to Space Marine didnt quite sell me on the game. Do I need to play a bit more to start to enjoy? (I died alot in the demo.)

Guild Wars 2... where is everyone!? Also TL2 and a secret... Did boot up FF13 and found something better to do before the title screen... must beat it before this trend continues!

I'll be back on soon as I finish Armageddon. I stopped playing once I hit a few quest that were still bugged. Hope the time has provided fixes.

Torchlight 2, Borderlands 2, FTL. Also picked up Homefront from the discount bit and now I want the name and address of the retarded monkey that designed turret controls for this game....I solemnly swear to make that bastards death so slow, painful and utterly completely inhumane that just reading about it in newspaper will force people into PSD therapy...other than that its ok, the battle for Golden Gate Bridge feels more like war than any CoD did since CoD2.

I really like the setting of Homefront.

the setting is great. really makes the statement. its the little things that are annoying (like the fact you cant pick up enemy weapons/ammo) or just straight infuriating (see the comment above for the turret rant).

sooo....I finished the Homefront campaign....i don't think I was disappointed byan ending of a campaign since freaking Rage...

this dissapointed*

stupid typo

Borderlands 2
WoW MoP, but the free part Im not buying this expansion for a while
Got DOTA 2 invite but not exactly... erm, competent in it yet

Back on Skyrim once again! I sold my Xbox copy about a month ago but I've been playing my brothers PC version..... now i want my old copy back because i bought the Dawnguard DLC on Xbox about a week before I sold the game and never used it... and I've grown a liking for vampires.

I'm not really sure how to transfer them to cloud so I'd say no.... But I would think I still have my original save file on my Xbox HDD. My PC file isn't too far into the game, only about 10 hours, but it sucks to be taken out of the file you're playing and have to start a new one, no matter how far in.

Problem solved! I bought Skyrim on Xbox yet again. Strange how things turned out, I traded Skyrim to make Ghost Recon:FS cheaper, never finished GR and traded it to get Skyrim cheaper again.

not a lot. I'll be getting Dishonored and NFS: Most Wanted, but other than that my two most anticipated games are Splinter Cell Blacklist and Metal Gear Rising

Borderlands 2 and LoL.

I'm all up inside of Borderlands 2 as well. Currently rocking a lvl 32 Assassin.

Mmm gunzerker, to hold a shotgun that shoots mini rockets in one hand and a smg that shoots slag and tosses like a grenade when you reload it in the other. Commando will be next, that sentry and its abilities make me smile.

Gunzerker. Kind of wish I'd have done the turret guy like I did the first time, but too far in to re-roll and stay interested

Borderlands 2, Mass Effect 3, Civ5, XCOM:EU

Multiplayer of course

Torchlight 2, some rocksmith and enjoying the comedy stylings of mrs brown that show is the best comedy ive seen in a while

Skyrim: Dawnguard + Hearthfire. Building a house and family. Video game responsibility is so hard. Also playing Civ 5 and Civ 4.

Darksiders 2, Resident Evil 6, and maybe some Borderlands

I am so burned out on Pokemon games.

But... but.... you gotta catchem all....

Not me I done for at least a year or two.

Since there is an NDA in effect, I can't say weather or not I'll be playing the Mechwarrior Online Beta this weekend. If I were playing it, I would say that I was having a good time while doing so.

By the way, there are some pretty good deals this week I'll share with you guys.

Darksiders II is $18.75 on Amazon right now with the (one time use) OCTOFUN1 code at check-out.

Spec Ops: The Line is $7.49 $5.99 (with code 2GFT82012) through Gamefly. Steam game so you're still just buying the Steam activation code.

Also, if you can manage to walk in to a Toy 'R Us they have Diablo III for $9.98.

Sweet! I bought Spec Ops, probably won't even play it soon, but 5.99 was too good a deal to pass up.

Thanks!

Dota 2
RE:6
BL 2
Guild Wars 2

NG+ in Dark Souls & some BL2 before Dishonored on Tuesday.

Gunzerking in BL2 is pure slaughter :D

Hes a short lil ball of double gunned ass kicking.

If anyone wants to play BL2 on PS3 my ID is D3TH_KLok--13.

Skyrim, NHL 13 & a bit of Medal of Honor beta... game looks so bad though and it doesn't feel like anything new... I know graphics don't make a game but it looks damn BAD, feels like im playing on PS2.

Just finished both Darksiders and Psychonauts from part of my backlog. Probably gonna start the witcher next for the next part of the backlog. Also playing TL2 and LOL a bit.

Speaking of which Psychonauts was an amazing game and I recommend it to everyone. It has a few control issues and there's a few moments where you have no idea how to use certain items but other than those small issues it's a great game.

Psychonauts is one of my favorites modern action platformers. Has so much style and funny to.

Borderlands 2 alot. Reached lvl 40 on my siren. Focusing on her undtil i know what the mecromancer will be capable of.

Resident evil 6 coop with mates this weekend. Really enjoying its coop but the whole non dropable guns is pulling my sack in a bad way.

And thinking about nothing but xcom release on thursday. Cant wait!

"pulling my sack in a bad way" - I will be using that...

Im trying to think of what the good way is....

It all depends if you are a masochist or not.

The pulling would just make them more wrinkly.... maybe testicular botox is a thing, someone google that ****.

Finally on play through 2 on Borderlands 2.
Still Playing One Piece Pirate Warriors
Sonic Adventure 2 HD

Tokyo Jungle is taking up most of my time. Game is easy to jump into but its a ,"just one more thing game." Its so freaking hard to stop playing once you start.

Picking up Pokemon Black Version 2 tommorw, and really looking forward to Assassins Creed III and Lego Lord of the Rings on the 30th

I've been curious about pokemon black/white 2. It just seems like there is even less change in this iteration than previous iterations so I'm probably hold off on it for a while.

I have played about an hour of Black 2, and to me it seems to have more differences than the other 3rd Versions did. It actually almost feels like a whole new game so far. So far the first two towns i have been to are new, new first gym leader, and the story is new. Though for some reason i am not as psyched to play this compared to how i was when Platinum came out. I think for that to happen again Pokemon needs to have a main game on 3DS.

Words with Friends...
Im on my drilling rig for 3 more days, then I go on vacation for 2 weeks, then back to the rig for 2 weeks more. It will be some time before Im gaming again.

Once I get some free time though, I'm thinking RE6 and Dishonored.

And maybe play a huge backlog of games...[Mass Effect 2 (maybe 10% finished), Skyrim (maybe half way?), Dark Souls (J/K Im selling this), Valkyrie Chonicles (2 levels left), there might be 1 or 2 more.]

Just finished Spec Ops: The Line. Holy crap does that game punch you right in the guts.

I've seen all 3 endings, but ultimately the only choice the game leaves you is to stop playing war shooters, forever.

just finished the phenomenal MASS EFFECT 2!
such a great game! now im playing a 2nd time on insanity... it is so F'N frustrating!
a game hasn't pissed me off this much since NINJA GAIDEN 2!
now that was a controller breaker... ...lol...

I CANT WAIT TO PLAY MASS EFFECT 3!!!
hopefully i will be getting it later this year...

I feel they really stripped a lot of depth from the RPG side of ME2 but they more than made up for it in story and characters! i thought the story was nothing short of EPIC... and... the cast of characters was far better than ME1... on top of that they really improved: movement, shooting & cover mechanics...


did ME3 return some of the stripped elements??? did they add anything else? or is it more of the same?

No video games for this week, my attention has shifted to the tabletop wargame, Warmachine. Playing as Cygnar, primarily. Fun!

Nice! I play Circle Orboros, maybe I'll catch you at an event sometime. I want to hit Lock & Load this year.

oh... 1 more question...
DOES ANY ONE KNOW IF TORCHLIGHT 2 WILL BE COMING TO XBOX 360???

well, i really hope they make the effort to bring it over...

if it happens... do you think it would be a retail game or a arcade game?

Been on a pseudo-retroey kick lately, just finished playing through Shadow of the Colossus (HD PS3 port) for the first time; was blown away by how well it has aged, incredibly mad at myself having never checked it out last generation. Just started Hitman: Blood Money having never gotten into the series before after numerous recommendations and having a blast with it as well!

BATTLEFIELD 3 and MORTAL KOMBAT.

I'm MURDERING people on Xbox Live MK...everyone is scared of me cause I have a 4 -1 win ration in tag and a 3 -1 ratio in ranked single matches.

Battlefield 3 is my favorite game - takes up about 20 GB on my hard drive and I love flying helicopters and spawn killing.
