What games are you playing currently?

[Hippocrates Noah]

Got GTA V for PS3. I had it and beat it years ago, but I was in the mood for a good sandbox game, and I didn't really play around with it last time. I also got Pokemon Blue Version on the 3ds, and I'm having a fun time with that.

I'm still playing Suikoden 2, but I'm a bit stuck on one of the boring RTS battles, so I'm taking a break for a few days.

I've never been into the GTA games, I had one on XBOX years ago but only played it for a little while before I traded it in. But I picked up GTA V on 360 after I saw some pretty cool looking gameplay videos on YouTube and I really enjoyed it. I've spent more time playing golf than committing crimes though I think. However I've been known to blow up all the cars in the country club parking lot after a bad round.

God, I need help. I have all the consoles, a decent gaming rig, and a massive backlog. So what am I playing? A twenty-year old shareware shooter called Tyrian.

Pokemon Omega Ruby -- I'm in a competition for a Shiny Mewtwo. It's been a good one so far .

 

[intrinsical]

I bought Just Cause 3 in the steam summer sale, but I guess my rig is too old for it. Practically everything was running in slow-mo.

I got Mad Max during Sony's latest PSN Flash sale, so I started playing that today.

Played some Pokemon Shuffle and a bit of Pokemon Omega Ruby tonight.

Been having a lot of fun with Halo Guardians today. There was an update that added Score Attack to the single-player campaign and a new Warzone Firefight for online play. Which is co-op instead of PvP, sort of like Spartan Ops for Halo 4.

 

[Rincewiend]

Picked up Dungeon Of The Endless in the Steam Summer sale...
Nice Rogue-like game, but harder than it looks...

 

[Owain Taggart]

I'm currently playing Neverwinter Nights which I picked up during GOG's summer sale along with the sequel. It holds up fairly well and plays great!

Installing my Deluxe Edition of Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens

 

[John Clark]

I've reinstalled Worms Armageddon for a mess around. Back in the day, I seem to remember Worms 2 being a bit more fun, but it's also a little more awkward to run at the moment

Picked up my preordered copy of Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens this mornin'. I've already played through the first level and have unlocked seven achievements!

I haven't played a Lego game in years, Lego Indiana Jones came with my XBOX 360 and sometime after that I played Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, both of which were fun. This one is pretty fun too, I just finished Jakku and I'm on the Falcon. I usually don't find the Lego game humor that funny, but I've actually laughed a few times at this one. I won't spoil anything you haven't seen, but on the first mission I cracked up when the Ewok jumped out of the bushes with the chainsaw. Kylo Ren's scene with Vader's mask is pretty funny too, but I won't say why.

Picked up Bloodrayne this morning (GOG has the series for £2.18). I've played the second but not the first one yet.

 

[SPCTRE]

Overwatch (XBONE)

UEFA Euro 2016 (incl. PES 2016) (PS4)

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE (Wii U)

The LEGO Clone Wars game is also fairly good, and perhaps as good looking even though it was released in 2011. Graphically it's quite a step up from even the remastered versions of the original games. Everything about it looks so good, and the animations flow more smoothly.

And speaking of Lego games, why isn't there yet a Lego GoT?? Instant money, man! How epic would that be?

I've never played that one as I never watched Clone Wars. Would it still be fun for a Star Wars fan who never watched it? I've never watched GoT either, but from what I do know about it I assume you're joking about that one.

I've never watched The Clone Wars either, but I'm enjoying quite a bit. Didn't stop me from enjoying it. I'm just viewing it as an extension of the prequels. For example, the first level itself is a variation on the Geonosys arena, done in a much more engaging manner in this game. But overall, it's actually making me want to watch it which I'll probably do via Netflix at some point.

Here's a review from someone else who hasn't seen the show but loves the games:

And no, not joking about GoT. I think it would make for a cool Lego game.

Cool, I might have to check it out sometime.

As for a GoT Lego game, I doubt the wholesome Lego company would take on a show known for so much graphic violence and sexual content. I'm sure parents would freak out, they've freaked out over MUCH less. Like a line of Simpsons Legos and a construction worker figure that was discontinued because it came with a sticker depicting him doing a "Hey babe" cat call. I doubt they'd touch a show with rape and incest with a 10 foot Lego pole.
