Skyrim
8.5/10

+Ran well
+Engrossing world
+Engaging side missions

-Combat is absolutely terrible
-Main story was about as entertaining as ones in FPS's
-Unmodded UI

Overall, I liked Skyrim a lot more than I expected to. After modding the game it is gorgeous and getting lost in the world is really enjoyable. Not too many bugs but they were present.

Next up, I have no idea.

I wish they could do something to make the combat more interesting in those Elder Scroll Games.

I recently beat:

Bioshock Infinite

Won't talk story, but it is well worth playing if only to experience the story. The environments and ambiance are far above anything that's been done. I'm happy to see a very artistic and visionary designer be given massive amounts of money. The only thing that held it back a bit for me were the FPS elements and some typical FPS mechanical tropes. I understand certain mechanics need to be put in place to have mass appeal. The combat can get tiring and repetitive, but not nearly so compared to practically all other FPS games.

Definitely pick it up before someone spoils the story for you, it was great to experience it fresh without any spoilers.

I recently beat State of Decay, pretty fun game for 1600 MS points. I'm usually not into zombie survival games, but this one is open-world and incorporates base building, stealth, and RPG elements. There were definitely some flaws in the game, but I had fun overall and it was worth the money. I just wish that it was a longer game, I finished it wanting more. I'm thinking about picking up The Last of Us now, since it seems like a similar game, but without the base building.

I'm playing State of Decay right now! I lost so many survivors that it's making me want to restart the game. I will persist!

Just beat The Last of Us. I thought it was a great story (with excellent characterization) marred by some mediocre shooting mechanics. Overall a pretty good game.

After uncharted 3, I figure I'll look for a copy when it hits $20 or lower. Played Rogue Legacy which is AMAZING! Waiting for the steam sale to pick it up.

I saw the Giant Bomb quick look of that and thought it looked fun. It looks hard too.

It is very very very very hard.

HOWEVER, each run through you collect money. With that money you can upgrade your castle which in turn upgrades your characters. There is also a black smith to upgrade armor and weapons, and a rune vendor to equip additional abilities and bonuses. Everything you unlock carries over to your next character.

Its fun and addictive.

Finally beat Fallout: New Vegas.

It's a fallout game. It's fun, the humor is as funny as always. I enjoyed it immensely. Some serious issues with the auto-save caused me some early problems and nearly caused me to quit the game. But I didn't, and I'm glad I didn't.

I'm now playing through the DLC for it.

I need to play that game. I liked Fallout 3, but had my fill at the time. I may try to beat that one this winter.

Finished up Borderlands 2 with my son. No DLC yet though. Started another playthrough with same characters. Will probably give it a rest for a while after that, wait for some DLC sales then restart with new characters. Initially I didn't care for it as much as the first game, but I really dig it now. 7.5 or 8/10.

Also just completed Modern Warfare 3. Like all CoD games lately, I think they'll be fun but turn out just meh. So....that's the rating for it...meh.

About a third through Amazing Spider Man; going to finish that up over the next couple of days.

[dyne]

Finished The Last of Us on normal difficulty. I don't think I'll replay it soon to trophy hunt though. Great story marred by some really wonky stealth. Pittsburgh was a bit too long. I think I'll get back to Ratchet and Clank 2 and 3 to get that finished up. Hopefully the Gran Turismo 6 demo goes live soon. I'll probably play that a lot.

[PowerCreep]

Finished The Amazing Spider-Man. Not bad for a superhero game. Not up the the quality of Batman, certainly. Nevertheless, not a bad romp for $10. Swinging thru the city is pretty cool and probably done better than any other spidey game. Combat is fun and rewarding. I think it suffers actually from just a little too much to do. Save citizens, stop robberies, car chases, help infected, and more. Pretty decent story however. 6.5/10.

Just beat Dust: An Elysian tail

Decent little 2d brawler with some really great hand drawn animation. The overall story was pretty basic but a pretty impressive game considering it was from a small indie studio. Overall game mechanics are pretty solid but there a few "rough patches" like with combat which is fast paced but can quickly become messy and hard to follow.

I'd recommend to people who are 2d brawler fans.

Beat: Evoland

I liked the transition from 2D to 3D and the gaining of various abilities and effects along the way. Granted, it was a gimmick, but it seemed fresh enough to me. It was basically Zelda meets Final Fantasy. It was pretty short, but I actually think that worked well for it since it could have become repetitive. Overall, it was definitely worth the discounted price that I paid during the Summer Sale, probably worth a higher retail price than the $10 it is on Steam, and absolutely worth more than the 61 metacritic score it has.

Next: Shadowrun Returns

I have put a little time into it already and am liking what I am seeing so far.
