Rino8 Posted December 5, 2012 Visiting Supporter Share Posted December 5, 2012 So I take it this game is worth getting? Been wondering whether it was worth getting for christmas and everybody seems to be saying it's brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Rino, yes without a doubt, if you can though, get it for pc. Been playing it a bit more last few days, stunning. Absolutely stunning. Just wish it ran a bit more smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 5, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 5, 2012 I have heard the console versions run like a flick book at times. But haven't heard anyone who disliked the game itself. It's one of those where the fun comes from **** around (and having the game **** with you) more than what the game really sets you to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nath182 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I've not noticed any issues with it running on my xbox but then again I'm not exactly a perfectionist so I might not notice what others would. Definitely worth getting, it's the best game I own at the moment without a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Playing FarCry myself, really good game, has a lot of potential. Really enjoyed Dishonored as well, thought that was brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it's all good, looks pretty epic when jumping from a huge mountain on a hang glider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I went shark hunting with a gunboat yesterday. **** great. I felt like Quint (only without the getting eaten part). ♪Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies...♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted December 6, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2012 Picked up Far Cry 3 on PC last night. Looks bloody gorgeous, but i've only just got through the 'tutorial' section at the start so can't really comment too much on the gameplay. Did I mention it looks bloody gorgeous?

The_Rev Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 The first ten minutes of this video are amazing. They frequenctly comment on how much worse the 360 version looks than the PC version (while stressing the 360 version still looks pretty good, despite an iffy frame rate at times) the quick look cuts to the PC version after 29 minutes.

packoman Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Don't Starve: Great fun, and love the style. You get two copies if you buy it on Steam now. There's also a demo on the Chrome store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legov Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Just ordered Dead Island. Anyone played it before? I've heard it's pretty average. Anyway, I'm playing Assassin's Creed 2 now. I'm not sure my computer can run AC3 properly, so I'm giving the second one a run first. It's fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milfner Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Dammit. Surely there's a massive gap in the market for a sandbox zombie game? Though I guess the menial tasks to do with zombie survival in a general living situation would be very hard to replicate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 The multiplayer was good fun on Dead Island. Plus the game itself is pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Surely there's a massive gap in the market for a sandbox zombie game? DayZ is on its way as a stand alone game, and sandbox zombie game sums it up pretty well. PC though, no sign of any console versions yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunRickyRun Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Just finished Dragon Age Origins - bloody great game. Might start another game as a sarcastic mage. Playing LA Noire inbetween. It's OK - nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Found LA Noire to be so very very dull, almost completely void of any character at all despite having the most realistically facially detailed characters seen in a video game at the time. Just such a boring game despite being set in one of my favourite places and time periods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 10, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 10, 2012 LA Noire's central gameplay mechanic is fundamentally broken, making the game immediately pointless. The interrogation game simply does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
