Hey guys...
Thought we could use a thread to help one another out with purchasing new and used games. Now that the next gen consoles are out and the holiday season will soon be upon us, many new games are going to drop. We've been throwing 'reviews' in several different threads or making new threads for each game. I thought we might like to converge and discuss them as a whole. Whether you're on PS3, 360, PS4, XB one or even a wii, PC and Mac, this is a repository for what you're playing and how you rate it.

Let's try to do a 1-10 scale for each game. Take into account the following:

Storyline
Challenge
Replayability
Graphics
Online functionality
Downloadable content
AI/npc's
Price
Length of gameplay

You can use all or some of those as a guide to score the game. If there are other aspects you'd like to tell as about with your game, please do so. These are just suggentions.

Please note what system, (if necessary i.e. It being exclusive to a system) you're playing on and let us know what you think.

1. Sucks, I'd rather watch Brodie Croyle play as our starter. This game is dogshit.
2. Don't waste your time. It's obviously been programmed by a bunch of chimps with syphilis.
3. I'd rather eat tapioca pudding out of my grandmothers colostomy bag, then stick my tongue in her stoma.
4. Meh, there's really better stuff to do, (like waxing my pubes) but I was lazy.
5. This is kinda like purgatory. It's not the best place to be but it could be worse.
6. Not bad at all... It's like I just scored a BJ from my hot first cousin.
7. Entertaining as all hell, kinda like the feeling where you just drank enough not to puke and can still walk.
8. Buy this game, I'm super-cereal. It's got stuff that makes my nipples tingly.
9. HELL F'ing YEAH! I'd talk more about it but I'm gonna be locked in place for a week just playing this ****er.
10. This game is like godfather two and the empire strikes back joined forces to **** your face off with wow. I'm taking all of my PTO days and going on FMLA.

EDIT: We can also discuss upcoming/all things gaming in here as well.
Enjoy!

This one is pretty good so far. The multiplayer is good too.

I like how it's taken off, though. I need to get off my ass and write up the last couple games.

It does say 'all things video games' before reviews :P

Self fulfilling prophecy!

You seem nice.

Looking at downloading one of the following for me and the kid to play this weekend. Anyone with experience with any of these, I'd love to hear it. I'll rank them in order of my personal interest:

Child of Light
Guacamelee
Steamworld Dig
Shovel Knight

That's a tough one.
Child of Light and Shovel Knight are both reeeeeeeeeeally good.
Guacamelee is ridiculously hard but rewarding.

I'd say go with Shovel Knight.

**hometeam** · 01-30-2015, 09:36 PM

Shovel Knight is the only one that holds any appeal for me, and I have seen nothing but positive reviews on it. I havent tried it~

**Ragged Robin** · 01-30-2015, 10:05 PM

thinking about getting Dying Light on steam. fffffffffffff

I'm glad I held off actually. I've pretty much lost interest in the game until it costs $10.

NewChief · 01-31-2015, 10:34 AM

Due to his obsession with Minecraft and Terraria, we went with Steamworld Dig. It's pretty danged fun. He likes the leveling and such. I really wanted to get Child of Light, but he's totally put off by female protagonists and sees it as girly.

I may DL Child of Light for myself. He and I will do Shovel Knight next.

Dayze · 02-01-2015, 01:04 PM

finally broke open Battlefield 4 yesterday. It's been forever since I played a FPS so I went ahead and played the campaign...

.....shit you not, I finished it in probably 5 hours. And, had no idea what the 'plot' of the campaign was. between all the characters, and the shitty audio.....I literally didn't know what the hell was going on. but.......this game isn't about the campaign experience. Hopeful to try out MP maybe this afternoon.

Jerm · 02-01-2015, 01:40 PM

Posted this in the PS4 thread...

Thinking of picking up Dragon Age: Inquisition...want a beefy RPG to dive into.

Anyone here have it or played it? Thoughts?

Dayze · 02-01-2015, 02:01 PM

luckily, the wife picked up BF4 for only $20 new. I would be pretty pissed if I spent $60 on that game. $20 is about right.

I'm enjoying the campaign on BF4 right now. The graphics are crazy on the XBOX1, as well.
