Been playing Crono Trigger because Watch_Dogs was so bad I need one of the best games in the medium's history to cleanse my pallet after months.

[BitchPudding]

Got me some emulators.

Chrono Trigger is the shit.

Dragon Age Origins is free on Origin.

Dragon Age Origins is free on Origin.

Got it, though I don't get into Dragon Age, which is weird because i've probably played the Mass Effect Trilogy probably more than 10 times (...yes).

but I typically get along much better with RPGs with a heavy European influence like The Witcher, Gothic, Two Worlds etc

So..... even though I'm well into my thirties, I play The Simpsons: Tapped Out.

Anyone else?

[Jakezor]

Uh aren't you the perfect Simpsons nostalgia target then?

I tried, but couldn't get into the daily stuff required

Sure am. I remember watching the shorts on the Tracey Ullman show. Now get off my lawn.

There's a reason for the embarrassment, though. I was picking up some food the other day, waiting next to a couple and their daughter, about 4 years old. Sure enough, she was playing the same stupid game that I play. It sure doesn't feel good when you realize that you are on the same level as a four year old.

I think my wife is playing Clash of Clans. I can't be certain. But she's playing some game along those lines.
She also really loves this bejeweled styled game. I just gifted her my old iPad because I have been using it so infrequently and she has been waiting one and this is a perfect way for her to test those waters.

Now I think we both want new iPads. Her for a fast one and me so I can continually play Final Fantasy and Hearthstone on the go.

/shrug If you like it, who cares who else plays it?
The only games I play on my cell phone are good short time killers like Candy Crush and that bubblewitch one.

[UncleBBQ]

That's a paddlin'.

Anyone tried Strife? (open beta MOBA from the people that made HoN)
I love it.

Also, Borderlands, dear god that game is awesome. Everything about it is awesome. The best game I played since freelancer.. (I'm a space-lover)

[Iommic Pope]

I'm yet to get on the borderlands train, because time, but I saw the review of the new expansion on Good Game last night and the Australian characters had me intrigued.

Anyone got the Universe Sandbox 2 alpha yet? Not a game, but looks like oodles of fun.
