I'm kind of itching to do another Skyrim playthrough, and I'm considering holding off the main quest as long as possible and playing as a shill for the Empire. Does anyone ever play large open-world RPGs more than once?

I doubt Far Cry will ever top Blood Dragon. Man that game was awesome.

Do the Mass Effect games count?

Sounds fucking boring.

Of course! I've still gotta play those--somehowI ended up with a digital and physical copy of the entire trilogy.

Okay, then in that case, yes. I've played all three many times.

I actually don't. I tried it once or twice and could never get into it.

I played Fallout 3 and New Vegas a couple of times each. I've been considering another Skyrim playthrough as well.

I started my new Skyrim playthrough this morning. Went with an female Imperial character (named her after my daughter...adorbs!). I usually go for a sneak/assassin build, and I'm being tempted back into that mold, but I'm going to try my best to play a balanced magic/light weapon/archer-when-necessary character. 2 hours or so in, and I'm picking off some bandit outposts and other small tasks before going for some bigger objectives (but still avoiding the main quest).

Who the hell knows. I think they'll release it on the Wii U and the NXT.

so after a weekend of playing The Division beta, i can firmly say it’s a great game, but it’s not worth it unless you’re playing regularly with friends. Without some coordinated strategy, you’re just toast. If anyone on here was serious about buying and co-oping, I'd be into it. If not, I'll just get Fallout.

Something from Fallout 4 I wanna talk about:
Spoiler: show
The Glowing Sea has got to be one of the coolest, most terrifying, most beautiful things I've ever seen in a video game. And then you can find that black pyramid with all the nukes at the edge of the map, and the crashed plane. So fucking cool.

Also I got a Gauss Rifle and it's the greatest thing ever.

I have only spent a brief amount of time in the glowing sea to complete an early story mission. I was a little too weak for the area so I didn't explore much. I definitely need to go back cause it was an incredible place.

New PS4 weekly deal is up, featuring a big Critics' Choice sale. Fallout 4 was marked down to $40, and with my 20% discount code I nabbed it for $30. Sweet!
