    ToeJam and Earl Kickstarter

    I think the 1st one is one of the greatest video games ever made. They wanted to do another similar one, but at the last minute, the company forced them to make it into a side-scroller for TJ&E 2, and a bunch of demands ruined TJ&E 3.
    They finally want to independently release the true sequel to TJ&E. Looks promising.

    This has been the longest I've gone without playing a videogame. The entire industry seems like it's in snooze mode. Is this how it's gonna be for new gen games?

    Yeah, there are some I wouldn't mind checking out but nothing makes me want to rush to the videogame store.
    Pretty sure my next purchase will be MLB The Show '15. Just seems like games take so damn long to come out anymore and when they do they are so under-developed where you just have to wait on patches.

    Also looking forward to Bloodborn. Love the Souls series so that one looks fun!

    It's been a while since I've done a marathon session of gaming (probably a couple of years), but since it was freezing and snowing last weekend, I probably put 15 hours into Far Cry 4. It is a very good game. Skyrim with guns. Probably the best single player FPS out there. You just do what you want to and it has good RPG mechanics as well.

    The only thing that annoys me is the rebels who just randomly fire off their automatic weapons into the air.

    Some good choices. Never tried 2, 7, and 9.

    I would go
    1) Civilization 4
    2) Skyrim
    3) Fallout 3
    4) Tecmo Super Bowl
    5) GTA San Andreas
    6) Red Dead Redemption
    7) Baseball Stars
    8) NCAA Football 12
    9) ToeJam and Earl
    10) MLB The Show 14

    h.m. Battletoads, NHL 94, pick a modern Madden/NHL, pick a modern FIFA World Cup, Bionic Commando, Civilization III, GTA V, Rocksmith 2014, Fallout New Vegas, Third World War

    Anyone pick up Bloodborne? It's got a 93 on Metacritic. I'm a huge fan of the Souls series so I can wait to get my hands on it!
