    Can't wait for NHL 14 to come out in a couple weeks...
    Me too. I will be trading in that piece of shit Madden 25 I picked up last weekend for NHL 14. Amazing how one company can make such an amazing game (NHL) and such a giant, steaming pile of crap (Madden).

    Yes.
    While playing this game I grew a fondness for using the bow and arrow to kill a lot of the enemies in stealth mode.
    I came upon the realization how awesome a Rambo game would be if they used this game engine and told half the story TLoU did.

    Killing guys in a snowstorm was awesome.

    Yeah, the winter part of the game was by far the coolest!

    I went to the gamestop to trade in a few old games and get the Last of Us.
    Damn it. $6 in return cash for Batman and Max Payne3.
    And last of us was $55 used. No thank you.

    I got Bioshock infinite despite the fact that I despise 1st person shooters. I am happy to admit that this game is pretty badass though.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)

    I went Skyrimming for a good 7 hours on Saturday. Got my High Elf to 100 sneak. I basically can go around unseen with Mehrunes' Razor and just butcher people.

    Forza is another game I need to revisit.

    I'm not thrilled with The Elder Scrolls Online decision to have a $15/month subcription plan. :(

    There is no way I can justify that fee for as sporodic I play games. It had been 10 months since I last played Skyrim.

    Agreed. Other than XBL, I don't do the monthly fees per game thing.

    never played anything from the far cry series, don't even know much about the series in general but far cry 3 blood dragons arcade download on xbox caught my eye.

    best $15 ever spent on gaming! tons of content for an arcade download. the main quest was long enough, side quests were fantastic, plenty to do in this open world game. the whole theme of the game revolves around 80's action flicks.

    highly suggest the download and as far as i know has ZERO tie ins to the previous far cry games. i feel like this game is just one gigantic easter egg.

    Anyone here get Diablo 3?
    I heard the console version is considerably better than the PC version and it got good reviews. I was a fan of the first two Diablo games...
    Tempted to get it.


    Lots of games coming out that I want: GTA 5, NHL '14, Diablo 3...plus the freebees on PSN.
    Gotta seriously find the time to sit on my ass for a month! :lol:
