Life is Strange. Two chapters in and really enjoying the story....

Started Playing Skylar and Plux: Adventure on Clover Island

It is so good, I love these 3D platformer type of games.

TerrorFirmer · 07-09-2017 09:03AM

Wolfenstein: New World Order.

For some reason the first time around I just got a bit bored of it fairly quickly and never went back, but been playing it again the last two days - the first time I've spent playing a single player game in a very long time, and I actually love it.

Did play The Old Blood which was OK but not as good as this - roll on Wolfenstein 2 in October!

Very little beats dual wielding automatic shotguns with exploding shells in a narrow corridor. I almost felt sorry for the poor decapitated Nazis.

Clearing out a few boxes from my old bedroom in my parents house. Found the Gamecube and a Zelda classic bundle disc. Ocarina of Time fired up last night. 3 hours disappeared.

Fallout Shelter - Want to stop playing this but only 10 damn legendary dwellers away from getting the last achievement and the achievement whore in me refuses to give up.

X-com: Enemy Unknown - Just as addictive as it's 90s predecessor. Pretty sure I could be playing it more efficiently (base building getting little or no attention) but having too much fun kicking alien ass.

Played that the whole way through a few months ago. Apart from the camera control it's still very good

Digital Solitude · 07-09-2017 08:28PM

Playing a lot of XCOM 2 at the minute, with Bioshock and The Stanley Parable hopefully coming when I'm all out of patience.

WhiskeyGoblin · 07-09-2017 10:56PM

PUBG...so much PUBG

wotzgoingon · 09-09-2017 03:44AM

Currently playing The Last Tinker: City of Colours, it is actually quite good. I am enjoying it.

eyerer · 15-09-2017 08:40PM

Just finished the DLC of Arkham Knight, clocked up about 38 hours in total for the game. Pretty good for about €10. It was worth waiting til it was patched on PC. Pity the Return to Arkham didn't make it to PC, the UE4 engine is superb and I still like the old games. Going to play Arkham City again sometime, I remember very little of it.
Oh and the last time I read about Return to Arkham I thought it was a sequel to arkham origins, turns out I just forgot about the remasters

Glebee · 18-09-2017 03:18PM

Sword Coast Legends. been in my library for a while and have not had time to give it a go. Reviews were not great at release but im enjoying it. Set in the same worls as Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale, etc.. Seems a decent RPG game so far.

Sephiroth_dude · 19-09-2017 09:52AM

Witcher 3 and Ys viii

wotzgoingon · 19-09-2017 09:50PM

Started Psychonauts good game but I am having a few issues. First the textures were flickering when I was moving the camera but I easily sorted that by changing Anti Aliasing to Adaptive Multi-Sampling in Radeon settings.

Second problem I am having is it crashes if I pause the game and come back to it after a few minutes. I read to change the game to run in Windows 95 compatibility mode so I changed that but I haven't played the game since. Hopefully that works.

I also paused the game while I went to the kitchen to eat my dinner came back to the Windows log-in screen so the game must have crashed and rebooted the machine. Hopefully that never happens again last thing I want is for that to happen during gameplay.

Overall it is a fun game hopefully I can iron out some of these issues.

Be curious to know how you get on with the final couple levels. I swear it's got like a 50% "**** it, I'm never playing this again" dropout rate.

ED E · 21-09-2017 09:31PM

395 Titles in my library.

1 Perfect Game.

Currently playing Back to Bed (Great Freebie).

gizmo · 21-09-2017 10:31PM

Just finished Sleeping Dogs. Enjoyed the hell out of it although the micro-stutter that was ever present in the PC version was a major pain in the ass and doubly annoying after the silky smooth 165fps I was able to enjoy DOOM at before it.

Ah don't tell me that. I am really enjoying it so far apart from a few hiccups like sometimes game crashing when I pause the game.

Hopefully I can finish it.

If it's worth anything, I really dug the last stretch. That said, it's kinda like the marmite of game-enders. You're either "ah, that was grand" or "**** it, I'll watch the ending on Youtube."

KilOit · 23-09-2017 08:50PM

PUBG, nice and refreshing playing an unforgiving game, gets my heart pumping.
Haven't played a game in months till i started playing it a week ago and the great thing is i bought it with phone credit!

Yeah I remember it being quite difficult at the end.

Back on Dirt Rally now, I'm driving an R4 Mitsubishi and it's more difficult than I remember the 80s/70s/60s cars. I was able to get through to the Masters career with the older cars but I'm consistently coming 3rd at professional difficulty in this car.
60 hours played, great game.

TerrorFirmer · 24-09-2017 12:40PM

Enemy Front, while looking for something brainless to play after finishing Wolfenstein: New World Order.

Horrible game. Graphically brilliant but plays like a cheap 2000's knock off of Call of Duty/Medal of Honor, nowhere near as playable as either (and I'm talking about the 2002/2003 originals).

Skerries · 24-09-2017 05:09PM

yeah played that and had to keep checking when it was made as it felt so dated for a new game and graphics weren't great either

Mr. CooL ICE · 25-09-2017 03:17PM

Finished Metro 2033 (redux) recently. Just started Rise Of The Tomb Raider. Enjoying it so far.

Kiith · 25-09-2017 03:52PM

Got through the first 4 chapters of Talltale: Batman yesterday, and really enjoying it. Can't wait to finish it off tomorrow (Star Trek tonight).

Gonna do the Borderlands one next, which is apparently excellent.

Remouad · 25-09-2017 04:13PM

Total War: Warhammer - Trying to finish my empire campaign before the release of Warhammer 2 on Thursday which I'll be diving into then.

Same here. Really hoping it doesn't disappoint!

wotzgoingon · 25-09-2017 09:51PM

Still playing Sychonauts and really enjoying it but hit a wall so i said I will give myself a break. I am at the insane asylum and trying to get the items off the patients but finding it quite difficult. I will have a think about it and come back at it again.

Just to come back to this as I look quite stupid especially to people who played the game. I am still playing it and enjoying it immensely. The game worlds are amazing and so different from each other, but I stopped playing it that evening after posting that above post and was in bed and I just realized

that you go into those peoples heads with the doorway.

In order to receive items off them.

gizmo · 28-09-2017 12:04AM

Just finished RAGE.

No. Just, no.
