Half as fun as Mon Hun usually is is still pretty fun, also, it's not like he's paying for it if it's going on a hard drive for his modded Wii so... yknow

I finally gave in and played Metal Gear Solid Ground 0 today. I can safely say FUCK YOU and I am never buying a MGS game again.

Don't give me 'its only a prequel' bullshit. The main game mission being done in less than 20 minutes and a 'to be continued' is a fucking insult to games.

Yes, it has side tasks and shit, I don't give a fuck. 20 minutes of main game story is a bloody joke

Ground Zeros is like a concept demo, dude. I wouldn't even say it's a prequel.

yeah, I agree its a demo that they charge £30 for! Seriously, that could have been free with a magazine demo instead of charging £30 for a game that is a demo.

I like Ground Zeroes and have played at least 30 hours of it. I understand where you're coming from but if you're just going to take it that the story was the most important part of the game and that nothing else is important, then you should've just watched it on Youtube.

For PC gamers.

I'm REALLY liking "Life is Strange", and I want you to like it as well, so check it out, if you like what you see, I will gift it to you... first episode or the season TBD...

If you have me on FB, that might be better cuz I only come here when drunk.

It looks pretty great, but has the downside of being an episodic game that isn't entirely out yet =.=

I like it too. It feels like a much more polished Telltale game.

Episode 3 is out for Telltalites.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

You definitely should not play if you want to keep those friends.

But seriously fuck that game. Monopoly on roids.

Andrius is about to play Team Fortress 2 for the first time.
Should be a good experience.

I fucking caved in a portion of my old desk because of that game once, I raged so hard I smashed my mouse into it.
I swear I'm trying my best

You know, it wasn't bad. It felt a lot like Counter Strike where sometimes you don't know how you died/what's going on.
I mean, it was fun. Basically played the medic and wished I had a better weapon than the needle-gun but it was fun.

Won't play regularly by any means but it was fun for a night.

Medic was always my favourite to play, then the heavy.

It was a lot of fun but I never took it seriously.

Ironcast is absolutely an great mix of match three and FTL. I really really enjoy it.

Really enjoying Pillars of Eternity. Not very far through, and had to restart because I kept getting beaten by the phantoms - druid didn't do well. Rerolled as a ranger and finding it much easier.

Never played Baldur's Gate. I would liken this to something between Dragon Age: Origins and Planescape: Torment, both of which are also excellent.

Yes it's similar to BG, but it's not as open skills/character tweaking wise. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

Mmm interesting. I'm keen to take a look cause I'm a big RPG guy but I'm so far behind on my games schedule and will be picking up my xbone soon putting me even further behind.
