Gorth Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Played half an hour of Europa Universalis III last night. Caught myself trying to pause the Obsidian forum with the space bar... good thing annual leave is coming up in a few weeks time. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Walsingham Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Continuing with Baldur's Gate. My PC is level 8 berserker and Imoen is dualed from thief at level 7 and is now level 8 mage, and I still have the whole city of Baldur's Gate and all of the expansion content to do.. Having Jaheira and Minc in the party too, I think I might destroy everything in BG2 with ease when I get there Probably going to dual my PC to mage at level 13, shouldn't take too long to get berserker abilites back as I might be at level 9 when I get to BG2. Also started a new world in Minecraft when 1.0 was released, the most effective spare time annihilator known to man. Got really awesome map, they really made the world generator better. Still playing World of Tanks too. Remains to be seen how long though, it's turning to be the most expensive "free game" ever FAST. I dunno. I found dualling a bit empty in such a longrun as the whole Baldur's Gate franchise. A bit more fun to explore single trees in depth. Personal taste, I guess. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

Guest Slinky Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I dunno. I found dualling a bit empty in such a longrun as the whole Baldur's Gate franchise. A bit more fun to explore single trees in depth. Personal taste, I guess. The two times I have finished SoA and once ToB, I had a single class berserker, so been there, done that I'm going to miss out on fighter hi-level abilities on my PC, but I think the spells he gets more than makes up for them.

Tale Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I've now beaten all the guild quests in Skyrim. So I think I can put that down for a while. I may go back to Metal Gear Solid 2 HD Edition. Or I may read a book. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Mamoulian War Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Just got yesterday International C license gold for every test in Gran Turismo 5...

Morgoth Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Finally got my C&C Generals copy. Gotta say, while it is in no way as good as RTS giants a'la AoE, SC1 or even the first two C&C games, it sure as hell is better than the latest 3 C&C games. It's a good thing EA decided to reboot the series with a (mostly) fresh team, 'cause that's exactly what the series needs in order to stay relevant. So far, I'm enjoying it. Chinese sure know how to **** up their enemies. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcador Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Played a bit of Tribes Ascend. Is really fun, nice to know my disc skills haven't rusted up after all these years.

Transcendent Prosper Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 i was playing Skyrim and suddenly, i lost interest in games, all of them. i think it's my period. i'm finally a grown man now. i have become transcendent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majek Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Finished Bastion. Still no that impressed and then i saw the credits. Greg Kasavin. I hate that guy. 1.13 killed off Ja2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transcendent Prosper Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Finished Bastion. Still no that impressed and then i saw the credits. Greg Kasavin. I hate that guy. i was irritated by all those challenge missions and those long boring memory fights, and the actual story and narrative are pretty weak in my book. i think the demo really brings out the best part of it. The only things that impressed me besides the demo part are the song and the ending choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorth Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 This I like the narrator though, he's a got a great voice. Looks like something that would have been released on the Amiga 20 years ago. Nicer graphics though I can at least give the demo a try. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Tale Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I played it for a while, too. Seems like a fairly pretty hack and slash. I never saw what was so interesting before I got sidetracked by other things. I do need to go back, however. It wasn't bad. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Raithe Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I've been dabbling at a re-run of Fallout New Vegas with all the dlc. Finished off Honest Hearts, meandered around, just started up the whole Sierra Madre kickoff. I'm not sure why, but I'm not getting hooked at the moment, having to stir myself up each time to try to get back into the game. I guess it's one of those odd moods, and no doubt twill pass..

Orchomene Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I've been playing Bioshock 2 last days. A bit too much action oriented (but normal, I guess for a FPS) and certainly too short. Yet, it has some originality and for 5 euro, it's ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Still playing Borderlands (no DLC's/patches). Hubs keeps playing, so I keep playing. And yes, the end-boss is still horrible.

MechanicalLemon Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Finished Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift in ~38 hours, although I could see myself spending a lot more time on it. Overall, a much more satisfying game than its predecessor. Going through the old Fallout games now to prep me for the FO:NV Ultimate Edition.

I'm playing FFTA2 right now. Played for 31 hours and have only done about 20% of the missions. I'm also playing Tales of the Abyss 3D. Other than some annoying characters, I'm really enjoying the game. Jaesun: Love FFIX, my favorite PS1 game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcador Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Tribes Ascend, I must master the disc. It's not as cool as Tribes 1 was, skiing still feel a bit weird and you stop far too quickly. Also not a huge fan of the rather accurate (at most engagement ranges) assault rifle or the fact there's classes with 2 weapons each. Still though, can't avoid grinning when I see put a disc on a guy from 100m as he lands. Why has elegance found so little following?

Nepenthe Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Cheerfully losing time to SW:TOR. What can I say, it's the geek way to battle christmas depression... Thought I could get to play today, but wound up going for a couple of drinks with coworkers so too tired to start now. My CE box has also arrived, but the store has since moved to the back of beyond and the weather sucks. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?
