I got to the jedi bit about 8 hours in. I was level 8. I doubt that's halfway through!

I'm now duel-wielding lightsabers and have a hilarious murder-robot friend. Plus I can go to different planets in my awesome ship.

I just started a New game of KOTOR2, but had to restart the game halfway through because I downloaded the "Restoration Mod" which adds a lot of new areas, many of which Bioware did not get the chance to finish because of Lucas Arts, and a New planet.

I have just finished peragus mining facility again, anyone played the restoration mods?

I have been looking at Dying Light.  Looks neat.  I'll grab it after I finish Dragon Age Inquisition.

I've been watching a few people play Dying Light actually. Reaction seems very mixed. Looks interesting enough to me, although there is a glut of zombie games right now.

I've finished its predecessor, Dead Island, with a mate of mine. Was really fun, even if somewhat repetitive from time to time.

I've started KotOR 2, and I'm using the restored content mod despite never having played the game before. Everyone said it's not worth playing without it.

So far, I like it less than the first game. I feel like I can't go five minutes without having to watch a cut scene. Plus I'm sick of being lectured by Sith Grandma about how helping people is bad. Also, you don't get a lightsaber for ages! I still don't have one!

If the bad guy turns out to be my own evil side or something, I'm going to rage.  ::heretic::

You love cutscenes. Go play the entire MGS series sequentially. Now.

There is nothing more fun in gaming than owning face in pvp.


5 games in a row where i was either first or second in the game, and won 4 of the games.
I don't care about the rules.

No!

I finally got a lightsaber on KotOR 2 (I'm level 14!). But now I'm being dragged through an annoying sequence of events where I'm forced to play as other characters.

It's really lame!

It's like the opposite of when you play Magic.  :icon_razz:

2nd Game of Thrones Telltale is out! Played and completed in one go again. Not particularly long!

All these decisions seem really like they won't pay off for ages!

Rufus tried SWTOR yet?

It got me hooked! lvl 43 commando now.
It's F2P but it limits game play somewhat with action bars you got (only 2) but it only hampers till you are level 20.
pay once 4,99$ and you get preferred status giving you 4 action bars. Been playing like that now, seriously considering subscribing to get access to all the perks

Does anyone still play Company of Heroes 2? Is it worth buying seems like the game was not as big as it should had.

Isn't that an MMO? I don't normally do those! I might have a look though.

Yeah mmo, but lots of it can be done solo, and end game is 8man or 16man, not as big as Wow used to be / still is, nor is farming for stuff really needed

and it's Star Wars! :)

If you check it out, pick Red Eclipse as a server, then you won't have problems with world pvp either bar a few selected zones..
I'm on there as Xintojo

I'm pumped for Dying Light and The Order.  I'll wait to see how The Order is and wait on Dying Light until it drops in price.

I haven't finished Inquisition yet!  And GTA V Online is stunningly amazing.  So much fun, provided you are a half decent racer.

star wars humble bundle.

unlucky rufus if you just bought kotor.


Republic commando was great, not sure i want to play any of the others.




I hope The Order is crappy, that and No Mans Sky were the 2 exclusives that made me hesitate the most getting xbone.

Jedi Academy was fun, though it would likely feel pretty dated now (not an all time great like Tie Fighter).

Republic Commando is great. Looking back at it, it included a lot of tropes and theatrics that made Modern Warfare famous.
