Yeah it loses its focus quickly and completely. However, I love the voice acting and ambiance. I really, really, liked that game, in spite of the half-baked RTS bits.
Finished Half Life 2: Ep 1 and almost finished Ep 2 (that ending is too tough!)!
I miss Half Life 2... wish that they'd make 3... puhl-eee-ze!!!
Who said that scripted FPS can't be done well?!
Not sure what I want to play next...
picked up a used nvidia shield for cheap... it is seriously amazing to be able to slog through my Steam/PC backlog while laying comfortably in bed.. i also tried the beta of nvidia GRID which is their version OnLive/Gakai... even though their servers are in norcal, I am getting very responsive gameplay with high IQ from texas. i really believe cloud gaming can be the future
so i have been playing the dishonored dlc and gone home on the shield... i tried a bit of BF4 multi but yeah the 5" screen and analog nubs are a huge handicap against real people
it is also very jarring for me to use my 3DS for gaming due to my eyes being so accustomed to high ppi in all my other devices
Beat Mario 3D World! The last level is goddamn ridiculously hard. The entire game is excellent.
NEXT: Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag!
Beat Candy Box 2, Candy Box is the next one to be finished.
I just finished my first character's runthrough for Diablo 3. Loved it! I still love D2 with the LoD expansion enabled best inteh series but 3 really filled the void since D2 well. Easily recommended for any Diablo series fan or dungeoun crawler fans in general.
proxops-pete, your posts made me pine for the return of the H-l series! Easily one of my favorite series of all time, I even loved the side stories like Blue Shift and the many mods such as the I Hunger series and U.S.S. Darkstar. You've inspired my next choices of games: I will play the entire series and all side games from the first H-l all the way through H-l 2 Episode 2. I think its time to relive all of that glory.
Opposing Forces!
Just beat Assassins Creed 4
I only played AC1 and I thought it was horse **** boring. AC4 was pretty slick and I really enjoyed the whole pirate theme. The story was decent and the characterization impressive. My only criticism is that the ending felt a little rushed to me and the whole 1st person modern day portion was stupid. Really stupid...like why the hell would you ruin an awesome pirate simulator stupid.
4 came with my 780 so I gave it a shot and was pleasantly surprised. There is a ALOT of side stuff and collectibles to do and the Mp is pretty active.
AC4 is a ton of fun. It's good to hear the MP is active because I really enjoyed that in AC Brotherhood and I was looking forward to checking that out at some point.
