I've been alternating between DayZ and Minecraft for the last month or so. Having fun on both of them.

Just finished Mass Effect after deciding to replay through the series before finishing ME3. Glad I've done so, and am now about 3 hours into ME2.

World of Tanks all the way!

[purdz]

Just started with DayZ origins after getting a lil bored of vanilla DayZ

With both the Just Cause games, once the helicopter is available use it to get to missions, makes things move along much quicker and you aren't constantly attacked like when in a vehicle.

I found the fastest way to travel on the first one was grapple hook and parachute.

The size of Just Cause 2's map is immense.


And i'm about to finish Bioshock Infinite.

Just finished Bioshock Infinite, the plot was great but thought the combat was a bit clunky.

Also been playing a lot of Minecraft Survival Games, getting not bad at it.

Finished MASS EFFECT TRILOGY... So, have been playing from Mass Effect 1 to 3 non-stop everyday for the last few months.
Now, it's all over and man! what a game! Multiple actions leads to multiple stories and multiple endings.

Multiple actions leads to multiple stories and multiple endings.

Not really. You just pick red, green or blue at the end

[Dooms]

My gaming PC and 360 are currently 200 miles away so I am currently playing Walking Dead (Telltale) on my iPhone and Half-Life 2 on my work computer which I've slyly stuck a 2nd partition on to install Ubuntu to use when not at work

Been finally clearing out the backlog of games, and really loved Bioshock Infinte, and then moved onto Crysis 3, which surprised me as it was better than I was expecting (Having a new 7970 might have helped that though). Finally moving onto Tomb Raider and I have to say, it looks and plays decent enough. Need to get that out of the way so I can work on Uncharted 2 and 3 on my unloved PS3 - which I have been meaning to do for yonks!

Have u got the original AOE 2 discs somewhere? Cos using them with the Forgotten Empires mod/unofficial expansion is IMO a better bet than AOE 2 HD on Steam...

Between playing War thunder online with my BNS chums, I have just completed Mars War Logs. Nice concept but to samey. Short as well.

Just started the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobly.

Started on Omerta city of gansters which I got for £10 in the GOG sale.
It looks great esp on the city map, not surprising as it's a heavily modified version of the Tropico4 engine, and it's actually quite demanding (causes the fans on my gtx560ti to ramp up)
The prohibition aesthetic and theme is really well done, it all looks and sounds right.
The turn based combat is great, some people have complained about the AI, but I have to say it's very situational, it depends on what enemies you're fighting, the map and the current situation.
eg if you're in an empty street with little cover fighting against low level thugs with knives, then they'll blindly charge you and being low level means they have little movement so are easy to pick off at range, but in a warehouse against an elite enemy with a tommy gun it's a very different story, he'll move from cover to cover trying to get as many of your guys in his aoe cone as possible while making return fire hard, they will ignore the block in cover next to them so they can go for the two out of cover farther away.
What it's let down by is the rather simple out of combat game play, you spend a lot of time on the city map but you don't actually do much and what you do do is simplified, eg you want to setup a distillery well the only difference between the location next to your hideout and the one on the far side of the map is the time it takes one of your people to run to it to set it up, once set up there's no difference at all.
It mean that while you've got a great looking city it feels a bit dead and wasted.
Your guys level up and get perks but only as scripted in the story doesn't matter how many combat events they go on, so the only time you want to fight is when the story demands you to, as there's no benefit to doing it and risk if your guys get hurt.
