RETIRED - The all inclusive video game thread

Played some Mario Maker for the first time in awhile last night. Delightful.

I haven't played in a while, but according to Skitch there are some new features?

Yeah, they added checkpoints and the ability to put different powerups in one block.

Ohhhh, maybe I should add a checkpoint to some of my harder levels so some of you can actually beat them.

I had conquered all of your levels last time I checked (which was like 2 months ago).

I was a big fan of one of the last levels I made. The auto scrolling tank one.

I think I played that one. I was also a fan of the one where you go to the left.

Oh yeah, where you ride the flying beetle. Love it.

That's the one. I have a feeling I am going to play a bunch of this game after I finish Fallout 4.

[bond]

My games of the year:
1. Witcher 3
2. Rise of the Tomb Raider
3. Batman Arkham Knight
4. Metal Gear Solid V
5. Ori and the Blind Forest


Haven't started Fallout 4 or Bloodborne yet.

[Monkey_Driven]

Not sure of the order but mine are:

Rocket League
Bloodborne
Fallout 4
MGS V
Super Mario Maker

I really wish Tomb Raider wasn't a timed exclusive.

I really wish Tomb Raider wasn't a timed exclusive.

Fuck i didn't even realize Tomb Raider was an exclusive. Goddammit that pisses me off.


It also occurs to me that i barely played any 2015 releases, now that i take the time to think about it. I spent the first half of the year getting caught up on 2014 games, and then spent about 5 months exclusively playing Elder Scrolls. Then on to the Witcher 3 which i will likely be playing well into the new year. I'm getting so far behind

Don't bastardize your vision.



My kids still play the hell out of mario maker.

Just Cause 3 is cheap junk.

Don't worry, the Game of the Year edition will come out on PS4 next fall.

it's been a let down.

Glad I didn't bother. Number 2 was a bit of fun, but it had no real longterm value.

I'm kinda overwhelmed with my PS4 so far. All the games have so many options (mostly Witcher 3 and Madden). It's making me feel old.

Yeah, I often feel fatigued by the sheer amount of content in Triple A/big games. It's good to mix in a smaller title every once in awhile.

Back in my day we had an A button and a B button and we liked it, dammit

How could you even enjoy a game without fine-tuning the gradation of your character's nasal bridge?

I beat Halo 5 on Legendary. Now it's skull collection time.

we all knew that Custer's Revenge involved his penis

Still working my way through Witcher 3 and I now realize that i'm spending an inordinate amount of time just wandering around and playing random NPC's in gwent. . that silly little card game is really fun. I want a tabletop version!

Uncharted pushed out another month.

don't get me wrong, as a huge fan of jc2 i'm still enjoying this game, but various things like the omnipresent leaderboards i couldn't give two shits about, some of the bugs present that should never be an issue on release, and the new upgrade system (which requires mastering various tasks like racing/marksmanship/wingsuiting to get the best equipment) have been points of frustration for me. i'm a casual gamer and jc2 was great because you didn't have to be great at the game to get everything you needed/wanted to create mayhem. i feel a bit like they've shut out players like me who love the game and just want to have fun with it instead of being forced to master the game to get the most from it.
