What computer games do you guys play?
« on: October 12, 2013, 01:06:09 PM »
I play a lot of Starcraft 2 and offer one oop warmaster blister (you can choose which one (note that I dont own all of them)) to the person that beats me ;)

Another game I love is Shogun 2. It's so cool and very close to warmaster in many ways. Also, how can you not like samurai? They are just awesome!

I've been playing a lot of mods lately, always hungry for more!

http://www.moddb.com/mods/underhell
Underhell is an amazing mod using the HL2 engine and offers hours and hours of really excellent gameplay with gunplay, stealth and horror elements!

http://www.thedarkmod.com/main/
This mod used to be DOOM 3 reliant but is now standalone and is an absolutely "must-download"!  A wonderful love letter to the Thief games, with lots of very varied fan made missions.

I am a fan of Total war Saga. My last campaing was Call of Warhammer, Rage of Dark gods. I was playing with Ostenmark, and was really awesome. Unfortunatly my computer does not support Shogun 2, so I can not play it.

Quite crucial to be able to tell minefields and rally points apart...

Light gamer but various platforms:

PC  : War Thunder or retro adventure games ( aka Monkey Island 2)

Nexus7: real racing 3, super soccer champs, online soccer manager

Wii: whatever son asks me to play with him (mario bros, galaxy, kart, skylanders)

well the games i play the most are:
red faction: guerrilla, civilization 4 and 5, and company of heroes.

RF:G is my all time favourite game  ;D
Nova Cannons are for these sissies who as a kid too preferred to throw stones at the others from a safe distance rather than closing in and get into a real fight ;D

Kicking barbarian behinds as Macedon in Rome 2 TW currently. Really taking time from the hobby. I've completed two campaigns in the game so far: British and Carthaginians.

Man I bought Starcraft 2 full price but only got half way through the campaign with it.  Too intimidated to even try multiplayer!

Rome 2 looks lovely - I bought the Empire ones and barely played them, never mind Shogun 2! D=

Currently I am playing Papers Please:

Which is a bit obtuse but brilliant and weirdly addictive, one of the few indie games where the "low fi" graphics add to it rather than hinder it.

GLORY TO ARSTOTZKA!

Thought I'd revist this as the Steam Sale is back on for Winter!

A friend just bought me Frozen Synapse and that is a really tense tactical game, very difficult to Master.  Quite like playing Infinity.

I'm playing Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs and though I am enjoying it, I despair at the game design choices in it.  None of the amazing diary entries are narrated - there's no sense of exploration and the puzzle solving so far is... slender.

I got Slender: The Arrival for cheap on an indie bundle and I'm sorry to say it still feels like a freebie Unity game.  Still a nice, scary experience but I need to play more to get an opinion on it.

Twisted Shadow Planet: Got this with Slender in the deal - it's like a mixture of Loco Roco with a bit of World of Goo in the dark style, but the gameplay is like a simplified Metroid so far.  Something that might play better as a zone out game on the TV.

Outlast: Amazing that such a small studio made this horror game - again, a bit frustrating but a lot to recommend.

Helping son out out with Luig's Mansion 2 on the 3ds. Pretty cool game. Has an adventure game vibe to it which I like. A lot.

If it wasn't so expensive I'd definitely be getting a 3DS and a Vita and playing some of the amazing new hand held games. My first system was a Sega Game Gear so I have a soft spot for the GBA/DS/PSP.

Just finished Papers, Please, FINALLY.  There's lots of bad endings and only a couple of good endings. I got one of the good endings, hurrah!
