Gamers, what are you playing these days?

It is very difficult and you do die a lot but that's the whole point. There are only certain ways to defeat specific enemies and the game teaches you how to defeat each one as you progress. Another reason being difficult adds to the game is the world map isn't very large, so the difficulty makes the game playable for a very long time. I found Skyrim to be the complete opposite. Very large map, lots of things to do but not difficult at all (still fun though). Crysis 3 was way to easy. someone mentioned dishonored.....that game was great but too short.

Yea I've never been about uber-difficult, just über-playable.


That said, Skyrim had its run because load times aren't fun.

It was cool as one of my first 360 games. I remember one day I put 8 hours into finding/killing/collecting things from everything I came across.
 
Played something like 4 hours of Last of us today. It's alot considering I rarely play for more than 2 hours.

So far it looks like a great game, its handled like uncharted but the " battles" require a whole different approach.

My only complaint is that I had to die a lot in order to learn how to handle the fights at first.
 
I've been playing Skyrim since the day it came out. Took a bit of a hiatus from it, but i'm STILL hooked on it.

I just got Final Fantasy XIV as a beta tester, so i'm playing that a lot now (as in, the past two days)

Next Friday (payday) i'm getting The Last Of Us. I've heard only AMAZING things about it, so i'm very excited to play it.

What platform are you playing on? I've seen there's been a number of save issues with it :(
 
Currently (since I got it for free on PSN), I've been playing Saint's Row the Third. Having a lot of fun with my nearly naked (wearing only pasties and a G string Bikini bottom) Joker inspired female (with the requisite huge breasts) using a huge purple dildo like a baseball bat, stealing and jacking all sorts of vehicles, from a golf cart all the way up to a semi.
Great simple, immature, puerile fun.
