The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames)

I just hope any guns aren't some sort of underpowered juggling weapon bullshit like Devil May Cry or such. Bullets hurt damn it!

[Wang Mandu]

And that is the type of game to motivate me to get a PS4. Please be true.

Kirby: Epic Yarn finished. Not a title to brag about beating but I can't even remember the last time I completed a Wii game.

[copstache]

how was it? i always wanted to pick it up but i kind of hate playing wii.

Best description is it was really cute. Not the highest texture resolutions but all the cotton, yarn, and texture graphics looked good. You actually can't die in the game, but you lose gems when injured. So, if you care about getting a 3 star level ending it can be challenging, if not you can blow through the levels without a care in the world. Bosses where cool. Again, an adorable game.

it was cool but not a good game

definitely worth playing, probably not buying

I wouldn't say it wasn't good as much as I'd say it was steered towards little children.

[james]

Yeah that's probably a lot more accurate.

where are they getting those chips

turns out they're cannibalizing old (and they claim cosmetically damaged) hardware

I think I'm finally at that point where I can't play nothing but Dark Souls anymore. Decided to make another attempt to actually finish the first Witcher. I got pretty far the first time, and then Steam lost my save. Game looks pretty ok at max settings, surprisingly. My laptop couldn't run it properly and it looked like ass.

[The Bill]

Just beat Syndicate. Blah! Went from just okay to boring then finally to annoying.

I'm going to go back to the XBLA library next. I never beat the 360 version of the N64 Perfect Dark. I'll restart that & see how it goes one more time.

[hyperviolence]

Playing my way through Wind Waker again for the first time in a long time. I'm fairly certain I like it more than Ocarina.

my favorite zelda. was considering getting a wii u to play the hd version but 300 dollars is too much just to play a game ive beat 3 or 4 times, and there doesnt seem to be anything else interesting coming out for it this year

does all the sailing bother you? everyone bitched about it really hard when it first came out but it never bothered me. found it sort of pleasant actually

[guardianoftheblind]

and there doesnt seem to be anything else interesting coming out for it this year

ummm

Do you guys have any favorite/must play good single-player first person shooters to recommend for PC? Minimal RPG elements, don't really care if its sci-fi, military, whatever ... last great one I played was Far Cry 3.

I'm broke til Tuesday but I've got a vial of hash oil and smokes to get me through the weekend. Video games are on the fucking menu.

I just started in on Remember Me so we'll see how that goes.

[RY4N]

i dont know what youve played but i had a lot of fun with wolfenstein, bioshick infinite and metro last light

[Wang Mandu]

Shadow Warrior fucking rules but there are rpg elements and the main weapon is a katana.

[spacehamster]

Remember me is fun for maybe two hours. Might as well stop now.

If you can deal with an older game get Clive Barker's Undying. Also, No One Lives Forever 1 & 2 should be coming to Steam & GOG soon.

[Spooky Apparition]

holy fuck, just read activision is pumping $500 million into Destiny

FIVE HUNDRED MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS

for a game that looks completely average

[copstache]

yeah that is a terrifying figure. it's gonna be real interesting to see if that is even a remotely good idea
