Just finished Bioshock Infinite....the last few moments of the game....wow. This is truly an amazing game. The ending will stick with you long after you've played.

Whatever you do, don't read/watch ending without playing it first. Don't strip yourself from a quality story.

I just finished it tonight. (That's why I'm posting at 3:00 a.m.)

Great game. Really grabbed you and got you emotionally involved. One of the most engaging games I've played.

The auto-save only thing was kind of annoying at times, but overall, the game was terrific.

I played most of the game with a sniper rifle and repeating rifle.

Got around to finishing monkey island on the iPad. God the memories of that game, love it!

Congrats. That's funny, I finished the game about 3am as well. And I also used the sniper rifle, but used that burster gun(controlled spurts of shots).

And I agree, the auto save was annoying. Can't quit the game till you got to an auto save.

I will probably play through it again in a couple months.

And did anyone activate season pass and content? What is it?

fired up Dragon Age 2 on the 360 last week; having fun playing it since the first go around I got bored during act i

Wish there was an IOS version of maniac mansion and day of the tentacle.

So I'm pretty late to the party, but I downloaded Minecraft (on the Xbox) this weekend for my daughter. Holy **** is it addictive.

I've been playing Kerbal Space Program lately. I haven't gotten further than getting my spacecraft into orbit, but I've never had more fun blowing up rockets than this.

You might check out Terraria as well. Kind of like minecraft, but more adventure elements. It's 2-D so it less overwhelming.

And Gnomoria. It's a less-intimidating Dwarf Fortress god-like game where the world is broken down like Minecraft.

Wow I'm not much of a gamer at all, but this Evil Within game coming out of Bethesda next year looks really cool.

Are there any video cards around these days that will allow me to play this comfortably in 1080p without breaking the bank?

Also, what gfx cards are better these days, ATI or NVIDIA? I'm WAY behind the curve here...

I've always been curious about Dwarf Fortress. I read about it here and their. I think I would really enjoy it. Just have to have to mod it so it doesn't look so ugly and spend an ungodly amount of time learning the basics.

ATI seems to release cards earlier, but Nvidia performance usually wins out for 80% of games. Wait until the game is used in benchmarks for cards to pick one out.

Anyone going to beta and/or try Elder Scrolls Online?

Nah, game mechanics look dated as hell.

LucasArts is closing down

A sad day. LucasArts hasn't produced anything good in years, but I have great memories of playing Full Throttle, Dark Forces, and X-Wing.

Yeah, they were pretty much a just a shell of what they used to be, mostly just licensing stuff out anyways. Even the loss of that new Star Wars game doesn't make me feel all that bad.

It was a good gaming, would arguably be better without as much shooting.

It's definitely great, I went and watched a video of someone who knew what the hell they were doing to see a ship get into space though.

 

[Reggs]

Yeah, I saw a video of Elder Scrolls Online gameplay and it looks absolutely horrible.

Terrible enough for me to get a good frame rate with my 9500GT?
