I figured since season 5 of the GOT is done, I better go and play the game that was released in 2012. It's an okay RPG, 6.5/10.

Story is really good, even if the bad guy is pretty obvious from the early going. But at least it's no "save the entire world from a demon lord" bullshit that most fantasy RPG's recycle.

Probably about 20 hours long and I didn't tire of playing it at all. But apart from story, it's mostly average everywhere else, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The only real negative is the shitty visuals. The graphics are crap for 2012, level design is outdated. It's certainly no Assassin's Creed in having a "real" feeling city.

But the upgrades and abilities were all good enough. Overall just nice to see a bit of history prior to the tv series.

Has anyone played Telltale Games GOT series? I'll get that next year, though I'd much rather have an action RPG over an adventure game.

Thoughts? Setting doesn't appeal much and unnatural double-jumping looks silly, but apart from that looks pretty fun? 

Is the Gobshite Protagonist? 

Always been a fan of those Ninja-like FPS games.
Nice so far :) 

SW remake was really fun to play comparing to modern shooters. I think SW2 can be almost the same game as SW1 was, tho it had a really great melee combat system. I think we'll see it soon.

I hope it can evolve. 

that looks like what everyone wants doom4 to look like, in terms of gameplay

Assassin's Creed: Revelations - 6.0/10

Same bullshit as the previous 3 games. Fuck, I can't believe there's another 5 of these I've got to play just to catch up. Talk about oversaturated with gameplay that has well and truly gotten old by the time the third game was over.

The only reason to keep playing is seeing how the main story arc goes and the visuals. But even this time the visuals lacked any set pieces and was usually just a maze of streets and buildings where you've got no idea where you are apart from following the waypoint.

I guess the only reason people still buy these games and it hasn't bcome the joke that COD is, is because there aren't masses of imitators and Ubisoft buys all it's positive reviews.

Also tried to play Painkiller: Recurring Evil, but quit after the second level because it's utter garbage made by people who don't have an announce of creativity in them. Currently download the proper sequel/remake though, so that might be better. Of course Steam says it needs a small update of only 10gb, that'll finish my monthly bandwidth off. 

Just skip to Black Flag. It's the pinnacle of the series. 

lame... main character is a woman.....

shadow warrior 2:

-shit setting
-shit voice acting of lo wang
-the remake this game is a sequel of sucked so much balls

pro:

good violence and action, better than what was shown in doom4..... a lot better in fact. I hope the gun damage will not be as retarded as the shitty original remake (revolver not killing base human grunt with a shot to the head .... because of rpg like progression... fuck off).

I probably won't play it because I really, REALLY, really fucking hated the first remake 

Well, you seem happy. 

It had a great melee combat system. Waiting for the sequel. 

I just hope weapons are actually decent in the sequel, because compared to the fun-as-hell overpowered katana they sucked ass for the most part.

Oh wow, they're making a Serious Sam game in the Hammerwatch engine? That's fucking cool 

Please raise the player speed at least x2 TIA. 

And rotate the world around the player rather than turning the player in place. Thx.
