What Video Games Are You Currently Playing

[Rubin Farr]

They're already on ebay, decent enough

 

Damn, japan gets a Triforce clock, treasure chest AND the scarf, WTF NOA?

[Guest]

I just want to fly/walk around an endless universe and the game, from what has been said and shown, seems to deliver on that. The less fighting and constant objectives, the better.

 

 

No Man's Sky is the closest to the sequel to Noctis IV (Noctic V) which never came out and probably never will. I'm eager to try it.

Dragon Quest IV out now for Android & iOS

[Adieu]

will elite and/or star citizen have on foot exploration?

They both plan to. I imagine it might be a pay for expansion for one or both games.

Thanks dudes

Not to ram my recommendation down your throat, but Ys Origin is currently $6 in the humble weekly bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

 

It's quite metroidy but with better combat, better bosses and better music.

 

Ah, Ys. Terrific series.

 

 

I just picked this up, cheers

[NorthernFusion]

Just finished Rogue Legacy, excellent game, even if the final boss is cheap as fuck.

Dragon Quest IV out now for Android & iOS

Don't you mean Dargon Quest?

Ah, that's where that came from wondering why people kept going on about it

[Joyrex]

And in other (not surprising) news... Destiny beta saves will NOT carry over to the full game.

 

I really don't mind myself - I think starting everyone on a level playing field is kinda nice, but sucks for those who mistakenly thought the beta would carry over (LOL) and invested gobs of time in getting everything and grinding to buy pointless ship upgrades...

Smash bros apparently has a bit of a following with people still playing (at tournaments, at expos and the like). The gamecube controller is still preference for a lot of people. To include this adapter/bundle (a small effort !) is a nice gesture! To not include the adapter would result in backlash, (and fans making their own anyway, id assume).

i know this but it still seems silly to me.

alot of people think the gamecube controller is one of the best ever made so why did nintendo just copy the 360 design with the pro controller this time. i dunno

edit: will we be able to use the gamecube controller with other games too?

maybe newer games but I would assume getting the gamecube controller to work with previous games would require a bit of extra programming and knowing Nintendo I don't see it happening any time soon.

it'd be nice to see the controller work with Mario Kart 8, at the very least (the more controller options the better. I have a few gamecube controllers laying about and the wii controllers are always running low on battery)

PixelJunk Shooter is fuuuuuurn

[Guest jasondonervan]

So the next Tomb Raider is Xbox exclusive. You could almost smell the desperation from the Gamescom Microsoft presentation.

I thought the trailer was very compelling. With the right design and atmosphere it could be outstanding. I really miss good puzzles in action/shooters.

[mcbpete]

The main thing that trailer made me feel was that I wanted to watch A Beautiful Mind again.

being an xbox exclusive didn't work very well financially for the guys that made RYSE. Apparently if they make a RYSE 2 it won't be an xbox exclusive for the now downsized company.

Probly not, realize the competitive SSB community relies on millisecond timing for competitive play, so they don't use Wavebirds, and they swear that GC controller was made to play that game, some even insist on CRT televisions bc of the response time on GC. The adapter is a result of N shitting their Nippon pants that it won't save their console.

Finished The Last of Us (why isn't there a thread for this game btw?)

 

I would say the first 1/3 of the game was slightly boring I thought, I wasn't really into the characters or the gameplay.

 

But about the final 2/3 of the game was fucking amazing, once you get a handle on the gameplay it's so satisfying. And it took me some time to like the characters, but the further I got into the game I really started to do, and then I was absolutely absorbed in the world and story.

 

Definitely a contender for greatest game I've ever played, no doubt. The beginning could have been better, but that's the only complaint I've got.
