It is as the title suggest. Tell us what you're currently playing and give us some brief thoughts.

I'm currently addicted to Hearthstone. It's an easy to pick up TCG game from Blizzard based on the Warcraft universe. Most of you have probably already heard about it. Can't seem to stop playing the shit even though it's kinda bullshit at times and you pretty much have to spend money regularly if you wanna be competitive.


I got back into WoW recently too but I'm kinda burning out on it again.

What about you CC?

I'm a freeeetoplayer in Hearthstone, I mostly hang around the arena or use a priest deck so I can steal all the good cards

Also playing through Broken Age, which has art as gorgeous as its writing is lackluster

I was pretty deep into the physical Warcraft TCG for a time, which they killed in favour or Hearthstone. I never did really bother with Hearthstone though.

Right now I've been playing a lot of Killing Floor 2 with chums. They've got a double XP weekend on right now which is unfortunate because im working all nights and my friends all work during the days. Playing with randoms is shit.

I started Rise of the Tomb Raider a month or so ago, but haven't had much time to play it since.  :(

I played the 2013 Tomb Raider recently and it was great! Waiting for a (deep) sale so I can try out Rise too

Yeah, I really liked the first one, and it's one of the reasons I got an Xbox One and asked for the sequel for Christmas. I'm only in the second area, but I think it's as good or better than the first (so far).

i've been burning through a lot of games.. here's all i played in the last 2 months

zeno clash 2 - excellent.., love doing those sick punches on dudes.. wish it had more combos though..
abyss odyssey - not my kind of game
jazzpunk - made me laugh, mission accomplished
cloudbuilt - didn't grab me like i thought it would. boost management just slowed the game down to its detriment imho
analogue: a hate story - it's a game about reading message logs and i got really into it. good
hate plus - a completely 2d and text interface is laggy?? somehow?? how do you fuck that up???? otherwise the story is basically around the same level as analogue
talos principle - great. did not expect to be challenged by the puzzles but i was
fotonica - very short, very simple, mildly frustrating at moments. it's an autorunner with a vector aesthetic. not noteworthy, really
deadcore - great. obstacle course platformer. i appreciate just how open you are to completely ignore the 'intended' routes while jumping around everywhere
call of juarez gunslinger - headshot city. good. shooting duded. pew pew. i liked oneshotting everyone with the rifle
drunken robot pornography -  good. i feel like i should like this more but i played an hour of it and felt like i was completely burned out on the entire idea. the menu theme is good.
roundabout - great? very inherently silly, i dont really have anything good or bad to say about it
fract osc - good. the puzzles weren't particulary noteworthy and walking around felt like a chore sometimes but i ended up making a pretty sick melody by randomly waving my mouse around the notesheet so there's that
jet set radio - ... i don't like it. the style and music and everything is awesome but i just hate the controls and speeding up does nothing but somehow everyone's faster than me anyways? and the camera angle makes lining up some of the grinds impossible and just trying to get shit done sometimes is a fucking chore son of a bitch this game can be frustrating
shadow warrior - good. the melee and magic stuff was nice and natural but i feel like making karma gained from kills affected by multiplier stuff that usually could only be fully realized with a specific single weapon really made me feel like i was intentionally limiting myself if i didn't just use that one weapon the whole time
lyne - puzzle game where you literally just connect dots. lmao................ it's good, lots of puzzles. it's 26 sets of 25 puzzles i think and ive been doing a set or two every once in a while
poker night 2 - i'm pretty sure this is going to be a preliminary sign of future troubles but i think i really like video game poker
valkyria chronicles - excellent. turn based strategy fitted as a pseudo-shooter action game with a distinct style. the gameplay is rather addicting and i haven't played fire emblem but from what i know it's sort of like that, but it feels far more involved than a top-down sort of game. i ended up binging through this entire long thing in a few days. lots of dumb anime shit goes down, some of them just downright ridiculous like showing a montage of a person who just died that includes footage of them dying that you just saw 2 minutes ago
super amazing wagon adventure - there's literally nothing noteworthy going on here
rock of ages - it's sort of competitive tower defense? simulatenous gameplay where you each control your own large rock on mirrored marble madness paths into each other's bases with the giant rock trying ot bust down their door on each turn. you set up defenses mostly to delay the enemy rather than kill them since deploying your rock is on a timer that starts after you reach the end. it's ok. i dunno, i sort of felt like i 'got it' after an hour of singleplayer
cargo! the quest for gravity - good. its uhh.. mostly banjo nuts and bolts with a compelling strangeness to it and a fairly relaxed tone to the gameplay. a lot of the time spent playing it feels... sort of easingly mindless, like one of those clicker games. the other parts are slightly annoying but nothing that'll really stop you. there's also two endings but the fact that there is is incredibly easy to miss if you don't look at the achievements or something like i did,a nd also look up how to get the other ending
the void - by ice pick lounge (who also made cargo ^^^). i'm still in the middle of this one i guess. playing this game is fucking stressful (not relaly in a bad way) but mostly because i have no idea what the fuck i'm doing, this game is weird as hell and i need to know what the fuck is going on
ziggurat - randomly generated rouguelike shooter with magic and wands and shit instead of guns. it's decent. you shoot fantasy monsters and shit in a series of rooms each fashioned as a sort of arena that you have to clear before you can go into another room in whatever direction, until you reach the exit to the next floor, repeat until you reach the end and whatever. i ended up both winning and dying on my first run by dying right after i killed the last boss but it still went to the completed the game cutscene and all that lol. it encourages multiple playthroughs
english country tune - minimalist puzzle game. puzzles are tile-based stuff.. the game starts with sort of simple 2d puzzles then quickly opens up into complex 3d puzzles and it's plenty compelling. still going through this one day by day

also been playing tf2 still.. thats definitely my constant

FLOUNDERMAN_CLOCK

Just beat Love Gunstar Heroes 3D and VVVVVV, currently almost (?) done with Kero Blaster (by the Cave Story guy) and partway through Lovely Planet and Oracle of Seasons. I never did play the Oracle games, figured I might as well give them a shot since I liked enjoyed Link's Awakening so much. Plus I got all of em free off Club Nintendo. So far it's pretty bizarre, I had to enter a dance competition to get a boomerang and regularly need to get jewelry appraised. I like it. I'm itching to start Hyper Light Drifter but I want to beat what I'm playing now first cause I can tell that shit is gonna distract me from everything else. I need a new external HD so I can free up space and install the rest of of my shit too. I wanna play Soma so bad but I don't have 20 gigs to spare. Speaking of which, I just got this awesome thing instead of a hard drive and it's beautiful. I kinda miss the purple of my regular 3ds but I was getting sick of how small it was and how the shoulder buttons wore out so quickly.

jazzpunk was great, the levels have so much weird shit to find. I loved the survival horror pizza world you stumble into in the first level. I've been meaning to play Zeno Clash and Talos Principle, just don't have the HD space atm.

And sockpuppet you give really good game reviews

 Clearly we need to have a Hearthstone CC tourney at some point. I'd love to play with some of you if any of you are interested.

The Old Gods expansion just came out recently. I'm kinda sick of it already. Everyone is playing C'thun decks and those that aren't are probably playing Shaman decks as Shaman got a much needed boost thanks to some of the more recent cards.

Rob I'd definitely give Hearthstone a try if you liked the physical game. It's pretty similar from what I hear and, as you've guessed, is super addicting.


Anybody cool enough to own a VR headset? If so I'm fucking jelly as fuck I hate you.

I bought a cheap Google Cardboard set recently, if you count that (probably not). I also pre-ordered a PSVR set, but of course I won't be getting that until October.

I'm also curious about anyone who has one now, though.

well, i recently got ''duke nukem forever'' for the PS3, and let me tell you:

i loved it.

it has good graphics, pissing, punching, the joy of collecting items, a pretty cool ego(life) bar, huge aliens and hot babes.

i just won the first (tutorial) fight, and kicking that cyclop's eye in the rugby court was truly great.

Can we at least ban BB10 from posting on the gaming forum? Please?

OVERWATCH BETA FUCKERS. whose playin! ?

PhantomCatClock

I know my shitty computer won't be able to handle Overwatch gracefully, if at all, but I'm gonna get in on it just so I can grab sweet Beta whatsits. Don't expect to be able to play with me though, bweh. I think I'm gonna go buy a month of WoW like right now, speaking of Blizzard.

presumptuous

fair enough.

truce?

BTW, speaking of ''overwatch'', is the game worth it? whats your opinion guys?

im currently playing a deathmatch in killzone 2, antique stuff.
(killzone is very fun when you have a good team in multiplayer matches, while it has many character classes too: from assault unit to medic, to explosives expert to infiltrator (spy). it has a very good multiplayer, and in killzone 3, its even more brutal, even tho the single player campaign in killzone 3 sucks, unlike the great s.p. campaign of killzone 2.)

Honestly I'm surprised how well my toaster can run it. I got everything set on "High" and I'm still pulling a good 40-60FPS at any given time. I have a GTX 560 for reference. Pretty much a 6 year old card at this point.

It's not as graphically demanding as you might think.
