Soo....what am I playing...


Xbox One
Ziggurat - Fun game, maybe someday I'll actually beat it. Pain in the butt though and somehow I want to keep playing.

Xbox 360
Lego Batman - Yes, the original. Playing it thru my XB1, had one achievement left over from 2012 (I actually started the game in 2008 and then shelved it after a couple of months and then picking it up again 4 years down the line) due to a crappy glitch. So I'm playing the story mode from start to finish like it was the first time and once I go into free play I'll grab the citizens (glitched achievement because I played it with my ex-wife) and finally 100% this sucker.

That's the active ones, assuming I finish Lego Batman this month and don't wait 4 more years or get bored of Ziggurat I'll probably switch to a Telltale like Wolf Among Us or Game of Thrones.

Conan as I remember it was decent little hack n slash, it would probably feel dated now though I imagine. And currently its not BC and I would imagine its not that popular of a game. Though that hasn't exactly stopped a few of the titles from becoming BC, I just wouldn't put it high on the list of possibles.

I always wanted to play it because it was Conan, but never got around to it. And yeah, I don't think I've ever even seen it on a request list.

Now that my overclocked i7-6700K, GTX 980 ti, and 32GB RAM system is up and running, I've been playing:

Goat Simulator - my 3-year-old loves watching the goat run around. :lol:
http://i.imgur.com/DCFLwFO.jpg

VVVVVV - Powered through this one in one sitting. Didn't get all the collectibles, but had a blast with it.
http://i.imgur.com/9U3utRB.png

Super Win The Game - Took about 3 or 4 sittings to get through. I really liked it. LOVED the music. It has the absolute best CRT filter I've ever seen, and puts all other "retro" games to shame in that regard. It makes playing all other "pixel-perfect" retro games less engaging. Such a strange thing, as I never gave a shit about that kind of thing when playing emulators.

Undertale - Really cute and fun so far. Already made one big mistake... tempted to go back and redo it but

Spoiler:
I already know that the game 'remembers' what you do, even when you start a new game.

After playing Super Win The Game, my only real complaint about Undertale is the lack of CRT filter. :lol: That would have taken this game to a whole new level.


So yeah... making great use out of my new gaming PC and its capabilities. :)

(I'll be starting Quantum Break on PC in about a week, but I'll play it a bit on Xbox One first)

I scanned through this and saw the games you were playing and immediately thought "wait, didn't Dan just get a fancy new gaming system?" :lol:

Re: What Are You Playing? (April 2016)
 
Well, I did play about 20 minutes of Portal 2 on the highest possible settings, and it was wonderful, but my focus has been on my Steam library which is mostly filled with Indie Bundle games I never got around to playing, while I patiently wait for my Quantum Break PC code to show up. :)

PS Plus continues to suck, thought their would be much better deals in April but they just seem to be releasing crappy psn games so I went out and bought a bunch:

MLB 2016
Far Cry Primal (just started)
finished: Fall Out 4
Yet to play: Lord of the Rings Shadow of Mordor, Dragon Age Inquisition
Still working on: The Witcher 3

I'm playing on the 360. I had started the game years ago and got stuck for a long time and traded it. I saw it for $2 used and decided to give it another try. I think it has a rep for having some difficult bosses. It's ok.

How is this? I've been waiting for a great rally game. My favorite racing game was RalliSport Challenge 2.

I tried Dirt on the Xbox (original) and never fell in love with it.

I think it's great so far. I did like the Dirt series, but not so much of the X-Games stuff in them. Dirt Rally is more traditional rally. Physics are great(I play fine with the controller on PS4) and it looks great. They made the Rallycross too hard though. I can't not finish last :lol: PC guys are saying it's the same on there after the latest patch, so I hope that gets fixed.

This could be my game of the year, but then again racing games are why I game, so ;)

I'm barely on level 5, ready to fucking quit, tried all day on and off in one section and the same fucking bullshit :hairpull:

Back from a week long work trip in Seattle, so finally time to play Quantum Break.

I finished Quantum Break the other day. I've been playing Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 off and on, and, hysterically, my wife is kind of obsessed with it. I can't play right now because she doesn't want me interrupting her playthrough. Once I get my review backlog in order, I'll start on Ratchet and Clank.

Decided to give Zombie Vikings a shot and man what a dud of a game. I really liked Stick it to the Man so I had high hopes for this one but the gameplay is beyond tedious. I made it about 45 minutes in and couldn't go anymore.

Re: What Are You Playing? (April 2016)
 
Stardew Valley, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., ELITE: Dangerous, and more which are PC exclusive.
GTA V still with mods and also Fallout 4. I'm not a console peasant.

No worries. It sounds dumb anyway.

That it does.

Also forgot to mention I've been replaying The Witcher 1 & 2 with a motherlode of mods before I replay The Witcher III. All on PC, obviously.
No console peasantry here. But I've been playing via emulation Yakuza 1 & 2.
