Anyone here play video games?

Played about 3 hours into it and ended up returning it - there were aspects of it I liked more than GTA4 and I thought it was a good effort. A friend of mine loved it and beat the while thing in about 3 days.
I really suck at fighting games though and found myself struggling with even the early fight sequences. I'd like to be able to use a gun at any time but I understand that's not the game they were trying to make so I don't fault them for it.

At first I was really sceptical towards Metal Gear Revengeance, but after playing the demo I think it will be an alright game, not so sure about the new characters introduced in the cutscenes though. It's selling out the whole series a bit IMHO, but it's a spin-off though…
Dishonored is one of the best games of the year, this is how I wished Deus Ex: Human Revolution would have turned out (not that it was a bad game). These kind of games are amongst my favourite genres. It could have been longer and a bit more open-world, some levels very too linear. Looking forward to Dishonored 2.
Need to find out if I like FC3 this weekend.
By the way, did none of you guys get the new Hitman Absolution? Played the first game a long time ago. The story is so ridiculous, but I cannot really say that I hate it. Killer nuns, srlsy? I am close to finishing it, but I still don't know what I should think of it, especially the introduced Instinct-feature. It's too much trial and error, which the old ones were not if you had a good plan.

Yep, I got Hitman Absolution and have been playing it on and off for the last couple of weeks. It hasn't grabbed me as much as I thought it would. There are too many stealth levels and not enough assassination missions. I remember reading a review in which the reviewer gave it 7.5/10 and that's pretty much how I would rate it; adequate, but not outstanding.
At the moment I'm seriously looking forward to Bioshock Infinite. If there's any game likely to live up to its pre-release hype, this has to be it. Gameplay and design look spectacular.

As a PS3 owner still patiently waiting for Skyrim DLC :sigh: …

^couldn't agree more

Got to waste (aka enjoy) a few hours of my holiday playing Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition on my wife's iPad. Fantastic to revisit it after so many years.
-
I loved that game! Got 2 but haven't started it yet.
-
Oh damn, I cannot believe how many hours I've
lostenjoyed while playing Mass Effect and ME2. I'm still finishing a character before I start ME3. I'm almost afraid to pop that disc in the Xbox. I know my wife isn't going to be happy about it.:) -
I hear you Chris. I'm scared to start 2 for fear of all the time I'll spend and I'm single!
Lately I've been replaying Oblivion and next up will probably be the new XCOM, loved the old pc games. -
Wow that's a serious recommendation. What are you playing? ME or XCOM!
-
I loved me some ME and ME2… but ME3 was kinda lame compared to the first two, IMO
definitely worth the play through but it didnt have the same charm as the first ones.
-
40-50 hours in, and that starts to lose a little of its charm. Of course, by then, you've started to hunt for Thresher Maws…
