MY BODY IS READY

Shit yeah

New Fallout 4 DLC out today so I'll probably delve back in to that as well.

Still just eagerly anticipating Doom as well.

It's a day-to-day farming game, but it has a leveling up system and quests and relationship stuff with the townsfolk.
It has been billed as very Harvest Moon-esque, but I never played those games so

What makes it addicting? That's what I'm seeing the reviews. People are saying it's so good they don't want to stop playing.

I'll say, for me, the day cycles are quick, so it's easy to lose time to it. Also, the different things you can do on the day-to-day keep it from stagnating. If I get tired of fishing to pay for my upgrades, I can go deeper into the cave and discover more shit, or go back to clearing land to expand my farm.
It's not particularly thrilling, but it is very satisfying.

So it's like grinding for upgrades and loot?
Like you say......I like that sort of satisfying gameplay.

EDIT: screw it. I bought it and will try it out tonight. I've been looking for a new game anyway.

That was pretty.

Let me know your opinions on the F4 DLC.
I stupidly neglected to get my season pass when it was cheap.

Decided to give Zelda II another go. Holy shit, this game is hard. Kinda fun, though.

Played for a few hours last night, and I'm hooked. Work was hard today, since I was thinking about what I'm going to do when I get home. Probably start over!
Either way, thank you for the recommendation.

XCOM 2 is all I ever wanted and more. Can't wait for Long War II. Loving it so much I might even be able to hold off on Dark Souls III...

Can't wait til it gets cheap so I can play it.

FO4 DLC has been pretty fun so far but haven't delved too far in to the robot crafting. I'm hoping there's lots of room to experiment based on play style and situation and there's not just one obvious 'best build' for it. So far doesn't seem that way. Quest design so far has been bland which isn't really inconsistent with the base game. Go here. kill this group, grab a part, repeat. I'm still having fun though.

Anyone play Broforce? It was free on PS4 and my friends and I have had some fun playing it coop. It's a great couch coop game.

Speaking of coop, Strange Tales carried my ass and our team Chosen Celibacy is undefeated in ad hoc lobbies.

I can't explain how frustrating MGO3 is. Either it's just roughto play with the horrible lag and rubberbanding, or you're actually playing very well and your team mates screw you over. The core gameplay is so much fun, I just want to bludgeon myself when it's going so shitty. I mean, how many competitive shooters have a tranq pistol be one of the most valuable weapons in the game? Knocking out dudes and Fulton-ing them is the most satisfying moments of pvp gaming that i've ever had.


Why can't you just work!?!

[Pop]

Yo friends.

I'm going to go pick up a Wii U tomorrow JUST FOR FUN and I'm wondering about my TV. I have a LG 32" 720p that's about seven years old. Never had any problems with it... pretty good set. BUT I'm wondering if I should grab something bigger and 1080p for the Wii U and potentially getting a PS4 in the next few years (still going strong with my PS3).

Worth it to drop an extra maybe $400 on a decent 1080p for the Wii U?

Thanks!

[BitchPudding]

Hmmm.....I mean, as long as your current tv has an HDMI in so you don't get imput lag it should be fine. Unless of course, you want that sweet sweet 1080p resolution.
