The Last of Us

[Imran Siddiqui]

The original Deus Ex. Fallout 1 & 2.

[DinoDoc]

Does the game really use QTE as much as Sava claims? I was looking forward to the game but that would be a deal breaker. I got sick of that **** while trying out the first God of War game.

Button crunchers are not the way I roll. I'm looking forward to the re-release of Shadowrun.

My stepson got me a Steam card for Father's Day. I pre ordered Shadowrun.

ACK!

I don't think bad driving is based on gender. Most everyone is a horrible driver.

It's hats.

Fedoras to ball caps.... If you wear a hat while you drive you are invariably a ****ty driver. I don't know why.

[Felch]

Stories don't make a great video game. At best, they can be fun-bad... appreciated ironically for how horrible they suck.

Any video lauded for its story has weak gameplay.

I think you're largely right about this. The "stories" I remember from games were all things that I did. Defending a castle in Shogun 2 against overwhelming odds, or my Alpine Troops in Civ 2 who held a mountain top fortress against overwhelming odds (God bless that AI). I don't remember the name of the rebel leader in Skyrim, but I do remember the first time my guy got flung into the clouds by a giant. Games are about doing ****, not watching ****.

Clockwork Empires looks pretty ****ing cool.

TF2, build a sentry gun, have beer, watch scouts run into it, refill from time to time, enjoy life.

I was watching videos and every time zombies or infected or wahtever... enemies... are around, a button shows up and it seemed like you just mashed it until the guy dies.

and sorry I called you a ****** before
but you know political stuff is just hot air

[Felch]

Dude, no offense taken. We can always agree on weed, video games, and *****.

Word.

My friends are all like "Let's play L4D"or "Let's play killing floor" when we get together, I seriously never found those very entertaining.

and walking dead
day z
state of decay
dead island (already a standalone dlc or whatever out for it too)


and more i'm sure...

I lump the horror genre in with these games too. And other post-apoc stories.

The division... from ubisoft. supposedly a hit at E3

it never ends

[Hauldren Collider]

Good games I've played recently (last 6 months):

Fire Emblem: Awakening
Tomb Raider 2013
XCOM

I wouldn't say it's hopeless.

Of those, I think FE:A is by far the best, by the way.

My father told me when I was a teenager,"Watch out for the old men with hats when driving." It's never been wrong.

ACK!
