What Games Have You Bought Recently?

  1. Final Fantasy 12: Zodiac Age.

    Only ordered it yesterday and it's here already. Came with a free FF12 t-shirt as well which isnt half bad.
     
  2. Is anyone else playing PUBG? Is it worth it? These early access games never sit well with me, because they seem to develop isolated communities playing in a perpetual beta state, but the popularity of this one seems to be strong. I love watching the streams, particularly the streams of people not taking it too serious can be really funny to watch.
     
  3. I don't play it, but I've somewhat followed the development. I'd say PUBG is a safe bet for a game to graduate from early access. The game is pretty polished as it is. They also have a proper community team that talk to the the playerbase.
     
  4. Life is Strange: Before the Storm
    CoD: Advanced Warfare
    Mass Effect Andromeda

    Amazon has ME for about $15. I saw that there are many custom mods out now that fix some of the issues so I figured I'd give it a try. Advanced Warfare was $7.
     
  5. Tell me how Life Is Strange: BTS is when you get around too if I really enjoyed the first game.
     
  6. I've bought Cuphead today. The developer nailed every detail as far as theme. Its so impressive. Its very difficult, and I've had to replay bosses multiple times and its still early in the game.

    Game mechanics are really good also, though the hit enemy hit boxes feel like they shrink when you shoot vertically.
     
  7. I love how that game looks but I'd never want to play it. I'd last 5 minutes and quit.
     
  8. It is basically a boss rush game. You have to like that genre to enjoy this game. Its all about trial and error, and recognizing patterns. That being said, the animation is so good, it is also a fun game watch someone else play.
     
  9. Wolfenstein II The New Colossus

    Has been getting great reviews. And who doesn't enjoy murdering Nazis?
     
  10. Injustice 2

    I don't like fighting games but I loved Injustice so of course I'd want this.
     
  11. I bought a pile of games in the Winter Steam Sale today.

    Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
    Doom
    Cuphead
    What Remains of Edith Finch
    Grand Theft Auto V
    Witcher 3 Season Pass
    Vanquish
    Quantum Break
    Metal Gear Rising: Revengence
    Enslaved
     
  12. I keep thinking about getting Wolfenstein II but all the reviews are mixed. The first one was good in the beginning but it got kind of boring near the end. I've heard the second is similar.

    I did buy South Park: The Fractured But Whole.
     
  13. I just bought They Are Billions. I only got to play it for about ten minutes before the kids started demanding my attention, but in the ten minutes, it feels very old school RTS and I like that it has a time pause feature so you can stop and plan. I need to put some more time in to have an informed opinion, but so far so good.

    I bought PUBG awhile back and managed to get a "Chicken Dinner" the first day I played with a friend in duos. I haven't played it much lately, though. I'll get a few games in when I get back home later this week. I also bought the Shadow of the Colossus remake, which is probably frozen solid in my mailbox now given it was supposed to arrive today and I'm out of town for work for a few days. Hopefully the cold doesn't destroy it. Unfortunate timing.

    [​IMG]I didn't have any kills, which is a bit embarrassing, but I was very stealthy. I got downed at the end battling the last opponent, but my friend flanked him and obliterated him easily while his focus was on me. His first win, too.
     
  15. Downloading Far Cry 5 now.
     
  16. I downloaded Far Cry 5 last night but haven't had a chance to start playing yet
     
  17. I picked up Ni No Kuni 2 (PS4 Pro) and Far Cry 5 (PC). Both seem like good games overall but have significant (lack of) difficulty issues.
     
  18. Ni No Kuni 2 better or the same as the first?
     
  19. Definitely better. It's probably the most enjoyable traditional JRPG I've played since Dragon Quest VIII and Final Fantasy XII. It has much of the character and charm of DQ VIII, too, and it's just a beautiful game artistically enhanced further if you happen to have a Pro (or a good PC) and new TV. The main gripe I have about it is the difficulty is just way too easy. I'm hoping from some sort of hard mode. You can do a "hard mode" for skirmishes. The entire game needs this.
