    I'm playing Dishonored at the moment.
    How is it? I played it for about 5 minutes then left something about the game just didn't pull me, in not to mention I don't like the art style. Dishonored was not a good game in my eyes
    It's like a cross between Thief and Hitman but not as good as either one. Stealth is the focus of gameplay, but like Hitman you can run around Rambo style if you want.

    It's a good game, but nothing spectacular. I didn't care about the art style, but it's not great. Gameplay is decent but I've had better stealth outings. Better than Elder Scrolls stealth, but nowhere near as good as something like Thief or Splinter Cell.

    Yea I loved splinter cell conviction was a really good game for me sadly I had to play it on the lowest settings because I had onboard graphics but still loved the game even though I lagged a lot

    I have Metro 2033 too. I have a hard time getting in to it. I wont give up on it, will play some more. I will not go for last light unless I have a change of heart.
    Last light is more of the same, but it flows better.



    Currently Playing Deus Ex Human Revolution. I rage quit on a section ages ago so I thought I'd start the game from scratch. I forgot how good this series is.

    I have DuesX but seems flat to me I been seeing you log on steam playing DuesX lol I might need to hit you up when I try to get into it
    Yeah no probs Tommy :)

    With Deus Ex it pays to hack, read everything to help with the immersion. How you choose to approach it makes a difference too.

    You can gun your way through, but it feels like another FPS. Still solid, but essentially more of the same.

    Or you can play the game stealthy, avoiding fights, knocking unconscious vs killing and the game rewards you better for it. ie you get more XP points for knocking out than killing. In the long run that helps get praxis points which makes earning upgrades more enjoyable. You have to choose wisely.

    I'm currently playing stealthy/hacker trying to achieve ghost bonuses. Essentially that involves an entire mission without triggering red hostile. Personally I enjoy the stealth, take out one by one approach. Not many games these days do stealth that well.

    And there many ways you can approach each scenario. The game gives players a lot of choice approaches, management and upgrade.

    It took me a bit to get into it, but now I'm hooked. Moving onto the DLC after I finish. And it's also long. No 10 hr 'movie' game here.

    Just started Back to the Future: The Game. I decided to take a break from action/RPG/platformer type games and this is turning out to be a top notch point and click style adventure.

    I've played through Sam and Max so I'm familiar with how a Telltale game works. It's obviously not as funny, but entertaining none the less and has given me a few chuckles.

    Obviously there are a lot of in jokes to the film and the era. The opening scene in particular is a nod to the films as it allows you to recreate a scene from the original film if you can recall the right dialogue options...sort of.

    The voice acting is decent, the guy who plays Marty is doing a decent job. Christopher Lloyd definitely helps add to the atmosphere of the game. Much like the Ghostbusters game it's actually a passable sequel to the films. It picks up shortly after the end of Back to the Future 3. I'm not very far into it, but I've liked what I've seen so far.

    The animation is a little stiff, but the art style is nice. Thus far the puzzles aren't difficult to figure out and seem to be logically structured. Dialogue is well written thus far, not Sam and Max silly, but it fits in with the feel of the films.

    It should keep me entertained for a day or two at the least and I might give it another playthrough to try out some of the other dialogue options.

    The art style is kinda Fable II style :)

    Still playing Borderlands 2, game just got to the point where it's starting to get hard, man I need some higher level weapons to do more damage against these robots. I got one that does decent damage and the shotgun with explosive damage does well but I need some better assault rifles, they're not so bad but I just wish they would kill faster. Need to go looting I guess to see if I can find something better since the ones in the shops seem to be mediocre at best. Also started playing Hunted the demons forge, has a gears of war feel to it with the way cover and combat works in third person and controls are similar. Games alright so far and ain't too pad. Also been playing the first assassins creed since I beat the second one first. After I beat that one I will probably buy some of the other titles once they go on sale, really good series imo.
