Who plays videogames, and what are you playing? - Page 12

I have Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City, COD MW3 and Skyrim as my winter games. I don't do much gaming when the weather is warm enough to go outside.

So far, Skyrim is sucking up all of my very limited free time.

A few hours into Fallout: New Vegas and I both like it and hate it. It's fun, and I like being back into the whole Fallout thing, but holy fucking shit is this game a buggy piece of shit. I read that the patches fixed the problems. If this is "fixed", I don't even want to know how this played before. The only positive is that it forces me to take breaks.

Ive never really had a problem with NV. FO3 had its occasional shut downs but I never did have graphical problems lime a lot of people. I just make sure to save before and after each mission, when I find something, and when Ihave to make a decision.

Try that 4gb launcher for both.

Playing through FarCry 2 and am going to finally finish it. I got the steam version with the DLC and the silenced shotgun is tits. LOL Been playing most of the game with just it.

I enjoyed the original FC -- loved playing multi-player and running around choppin' the fuck outta people with the machete.

About the only thing I've played lately is a bit of MW3 and BF3 while on R&R --- also picked up the new Forza and Ace Combat --- haven't really spent any time with them as they're back home.

Started playing SWtor on the early release. Pretty damn badass so far!

Anyone else on it?

Yeah. Port Nowhere server, "Janushin."

The game story, graphics, cinematics and all that are incredible. The interface is intuitive - much like most MMO's, fairly easy to use.

Combat is a different story - it's not turn based (thank god) but it's also not a mouse click frenzy. Combat is very much all about the combinations and various types of attacks you can do. No casting on the run and aggro management is key - more than a few of the mobs will kill you.

I'm just getting started on it, but like it so far. Well worth the $60 or so for the price of the game.
