Lemonade Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 In the vein of "Last Film You Watched" / "Your Current Read" / "What CDs have you been buying recently?" etc.I finished up Marvel: Ultimate Alliance last night (though still need to go back through and get some of the unlocks). I picked it up second hand in HMV for a fiver and it was well worth it, got a good month of casual gaming out of it, though being 5 years old it looks kinda dated.Got a start on Batman Arkham City this morning. Initial impression is that everything seems a bit smoother and quicker than the first game, but the menus etc are more complicated. It's going to take a bit of getting used to. I LOVED the first game...So, what are you playing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeno Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Currently working through-Skyrim, nearly finished, just story missions left and a few random sidequests. No fucking way I can be arsed with getting 1000/1000 gamerscore though. Pretty sure I will get over 900 with the missions I have left so that is good enough. Already spent far too much time on the game.-Dark Souls. Only just started - it's very hard, infuriatingly so. Choosing the bandit who is for 'experienced' players was a bad move though. Can't even block without losing health and still not managed to time the parry properly.- Bastion. Brilliant. Best downloadable game of 2011.- Stacking. Tim Schafer delivers again.- Beyond Good & Evil HD. bought on sale for 240msp. Total bargain at that price.I also have Driver San Francisco, Deus Ex sitting in a pile of things to play. Also recently bought the Fallout New Vegas DLC when it was 50% off so will need to go back and finish that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HateEvent Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 NHL 12. I got FIFA 12 for Christmas so I'll give that a whirl too.I'm not much of a gamer so it'll probably be just those 2 for the foreseeable future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I’ve gone a bit mental in the last couple of months and bought more games than I could possibly get around to actually playing. I got Fifa 12, AC: Revelations, Batman and Skyrim and have played them all a bit. They’re all very good, but I’ve spread myself too thin: there’s no way I’ll have time to complete them all. I also really want FM2012, but definitely won’t have time for that. I also inexplicably really want to get the new WWE game as they used to be well good back in the day. Has anyone played it? I WANT IT ALL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Cynic Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I spent a lot of time over Christmas/ New Year playing old analog games like dominoes and bagatelle, but if my son buys pne of those Retrode things ( which let you play mega drive and nintendo games on the computer using the original controllers) then I can see me having a Micro Machines and Road Rash frenzy soon.

Micro Machines was ace on the Mega Drive, 8 folk sharing 4 controllers always ended in fun, or violence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaki Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 PES 2010 on the PS2. I have owned a PS2 for 10 years and the only game I have ever played is the Master League on PES. I'm even behind 2 versions which I'll buy in chronological order and play them until I'm too good on the hardest level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Rage is really fantastic. There hasn't been a lot of hype around it but it's super fun and even though it's not a horror, when you hear the mutants going about you're shiting yourself. There's just always so many of them.

FOX Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Mostly FIFA 12 and FM2012, both of which I'm shite at. Really need to get myself a bit of Skyrim even though I'll never ever find the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaaakkkeee Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Rage just keeps getting better and better. And it's just hard enough that it might take a couple of goes to do a 'mission', but easy enough that I won't be stuck for hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh_Jazz Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I downloaded a Mac port of Jet Set Willy before Xmas, and have played it relentlessly since. Completed it last weekend. Have wanted to do that since I was about 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsinho Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I played a lot of FM2011 over the holidays as I took my laptop down south with me so that I'd have something to do while the rest of the family watched Poirot.Now that I'm back up here I'm going to get back onto Battlefield 3 (360 version) for some spottin' 'n' shootin'.

keeno Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 skyrim. endlessly. it may result in divorce.When I first got it, I was staying up until 2/3am playing it even when I had 9am starts and in the run up to exams. It is incredibly addictive. Not played it in the last couple of weeks but once it goes back in the xbox it won't be out until it is completed!Although I would like to do another playthrough trying a mage or a 2h/dual wield character. The one I am doing atm is light armour with mace/shield. Totally neglected archery but as soon as you upgrade enchanting and blacksmithing skills you can make ridiculously powerful weapons and armour with 2x enchantments each so I put +40% 1 handed weapon and archery enchantments on everything I could. Sneaking around a building and killing everything without even taking a hit is ridiculously easy now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
