I didn't have problems playing 'Brothers' on a keyboard. But, I guess it'd be more fun on a gamepad.

RazerZ · Nov 23, 2014

I'm looking for a game to get to play on thanksgiving break. Ryse: Son of Rome looked fun to me. Also thinking about watchdogs, FC4, or AC: Unity but they seem to be really buggy as of late.

Gman450 :

It uses the symmetry of the gamepad for controlling the two brothers

manofchalk · Nov 23, 2014

I really like the control scheme of Brothers. Not many games actually use the control scheme as a way to convey narrative and emotion like it did (you need to play the game through to understand).

Right now I'm kicking it old-school and playing some Evil Genius

Its pretty much Dungeon Keeper if you were a 60's Bond villain. Really detailed and intricate game, cant wait till Rebellion (who own the IP after it got shuffled around a few times) release a sequel. This game has surprising staying power, I'v been playing this on and off since its release in 2006.

I myself like three games:
Minecraft (depicted on my profile picture)
FTL (Faster than Light)
South Park: The Stick of Truth
My MC laptop's power cord broke, I ordered another (cheap) one on Amazon, turned out it fried my laptop, and then I sold it. My desktop (in my sig) cannot play ANY game save for maybe Minesweeper (even then, it gets like 20 FPS), so I game now on a secondary laptop.

Very recently I've been playing Worms Ultimate Mayhem. Suitable for all ages, really! Just pure action fun with a very cartoon styled sense of humor. Also the weapon customization is great! Also it seems to be the only 3D Worms game? Seems like I'll definitely get Brothers when it goes on sale! Thanks for the recommendation!

By the way, anybody played Ryse yet? How is it? Obviously the graphics would be top notch. How is the gameplay though?

manofchalk · Nov 24, 2014

I thought Ryse was just an on-rails series of QTE's. Havent played it, but from what I gather from reviews and such.

Yup. Crytek is going down for abandoning PC

manofchalk · Nov 24, 2014

Abandoning PC is releasing one timed console exclusive?
They were probably approached by Microsoft directly and asked to make something graphically powerful they could show off on the Xbone. Their more an engine company than a game studio anymore.

AshyCFC · Nov 24, 2014

Installed star wars knights of the old republic earlier, anyone ever played this game? It's a fairly old but iconic RPG game.

CAaronD · Nov 24, 2014

Based on reading the reviews on steam, seems that the game has a very immersing story, excellent soundtrack and has a fresh style of gameplay.

However, things get repetitive after an hour or so. And the gameplay mechanics are repetitive. Also the fact that you can't change your controls seems to bother a lot of people.

Haven't seen anybody saying the story was dull/boring though. Seems surprisingly good for Crytek actually. 9/10 rating on Steam was higher than I expected! From all those people saying bad things about it around the internet, I expected a 7/10.

Thaisnang · Nov 24, 2014

Well I had to skip Dragon Age: Inquisition. Waiting for Telltales Game of Thrones now. Hope it'll be good.

King-Servers · Nov 29, 2014

I am hooked on FIFA15 these days

Gman450 · Nov 29, 2014

I never played FIFA consistently since FIFA 06. I've tried 07, 08, 10, 12 and 14. But I could never sit and play like I played 06. I simply play a few matches first and then get bored immediately..

AshyCFC · Nov 30, 2014

I love FIFA but can't sit it out on the PC, gotta be chilling on my PS4.

CAaronD · Nov 30, 2014

I've only played FIFA 06 and FIFA 11. Never played the newer ones. To the observer, the observer may be thinking, "whats so fun about this boring game?". But when you play the game ... oh boy ..... It's addictive for SOME REASON ... >.<

Gman450 · Nov 30, 2014

Thaisnang :

I trust Telltale, and I think they'll make an amazing 'Game of Thrones' game. 'Tales from Borderlands' is out, if anyone is interested. Me? I'll wait till all the episodes are released.

Connor B · Dec 2, 2014

I have been playing Counter Strike: Global Offense. I like to play this game because of how strategy and team work is key to winning, and how competitive it can get at higher ranks.

There are no specific games I have been looking at right now. That's just because I haven't had any interest in any other game besides Counter Strike.

Connor B · Dec 2, 2014

Gman450 :

I can relate to this, but it is with almost every sport game I have played.

RazerZ · Dec 2, 2014

Does anyone know any good games which can be played with four players on one screen via split screen?

CAaronD · Dec 2, 2014

^ console, right? Would be pretty crazy if it were PC xD Well, I only know some indie games for the PS2/Wii. Because I didn't own any consoles after that.

RazerZ · Dec 2, 2014

Nope, PC

I played COD at a friend's house last weeked on PS3. Can't believe how bad the graphics were and how much lag 4 player zombies had. I was hoping there was some sort of PC alternative. So far I've seen DIRT 3 can do multiplayer on split screen, but it's only two players.

manofchalk · Dec 3, 2014

Gang Beasts, Trine 1 and 2 and I think Borderlands can do local multiplayer on PC. At least those are the games that come to mind (though not sure on Borderlands).

chimera201 · Dec 3, 2014

RazerZ :

'Nidhogg' comes to mind but its still 2 player. Don't look it up though

Krizztech · Dec 3, 2014

Counter Strike: Global Offensive is the most recent game that I have been playing.
