Games you're playing

I haven't really been playing much in the way of retail games lately, nothing has really caught my eye, though there are some games coming out soon that I'm very interested in, mostly I've been playing PSN games lately, if you guys haven't checked out The Walking Dead game, you should give it a look, especialy if you're a fan of the comics, the story is great so far...and the second episode (which released this Friday) was especially intense.

If you're interested at all, the games are reminiscent of the old "point & click" style of games, though much more interactive, most of the time you'll be involved in conversations with the different survivors you come across...and the coolest part of the game is that all the choices you make in and out of conversation affect the way the game evolves for you, I especialy liked the art style of the game, they used a cel shaded look for the game which works really well.

Just finished Ghost Recon: Future Soldier and I'm selling it back to Amazon. Getting ready to plug away at Spec Ops: The Line.

Did play Walking Dead: Episode 1 and really enjoyed it. Bought Episode 2 with no hesitation and will probably jump on it this weekend (they are short after all, but really well written and enjoyable). Highly recommend that series.

I was told by Rooster Teeth, whos opinion I trust whole-fully that Spec Ops The Line is a good game. I have also seen some gameplay and it looks fairly good

eh, to each their own. i know that able (my gamestop guy) and i have almost identical tastes in games, so when he says give it a pass, i can usually be airly certain that i wouldn't like it. can't really think of any exceptions at this point.

I preordered Spec Ops and got in the mail last week. I got to play the first four chapters last night (and missed an achievement of staying alive by like 3 minutes). I enjoyed it. Also, the IGN guys seemed to like it.

Don't get me wrong on Ghost Recon, I really liked the single player story, but the multiplayer is definitely not my style. And no, COD is not me; I'm more of a Halo ro Battlefield dude.

mah man, haven't tried the multi yet, but the campaign is sick. i am also in love with the weapon customization.

Picked up ME3 and waited until that extended DLC to go through it. All kinds of sad about how it doesn't measure up to ME2. Bogged down with time wasting cutscenes and constant loading, which felt worse because you pratically lived in the elevators. A few great battles. Tachanka, Citadel. Pretty game. Loved seeing the Geth. Alpha Primes. Brutes. Some great stuff. Still felt like I was just supposed to be distracted from the irritating moments because they put so much time and effort into ass shots and cameltoes. Endings aren't doing it any favors. At least give me a Shepard/Jack True Romance ending.

It wasn't that bad...

^It wasn't. Just didn't feel like I got out what I put in where the end was concerned. Still love the series. If thats the last game, hoping they open it up for books/graphic novels. Milk it like star wars.

Went back to Crusader Kings 2 since I got the Game of Thrones mod for it. Fingers crossed I run across a dragon at some point. Just keep getting ruined with incest/insanity/gonorrhea. My lords refuse to let anybody else take there daughters virginity. And they always have crazy hunchbacks from it.
