^ Great purchases! I was thinking about getting Skyrim too, since I really like Fallout 3 and NV, but the sale was nearly over when I saw it. I don't feel like playing video games in the last few months but I think it will get back soon ..... Next Car Game's release is next month

 37 levels later I've realized that it's a rather monotonous cross between The Witcher and WoW. I do like the perks system along with the sneaking and pickpocketing capacities.  Over-convoluted for me, especially since I got used to the HoMM paradigm (and I've never played Civilization), but I think I'll get the hang of it eventually. BTW, got it for a third of the original price. Thank you, Santa.   Ha-ha-a-a-a! ... I'm back! Still exciting, ... just about as exciting as it was ten years ago. Addictive, goofy, and fun. Don't get just the demo portion, or you won't get the full experience if you are interested in all sorts of monsters and ancient traps.

So, the little Prog Archives steam group I started (linked in my signature) awhile back is only at 31 members, right now. Idea was just to have a small presence on steam just for those of us who game and maybe even advertise this site to online gamers. Anyway, I think the current group logo/tag/abbreviation I created is a bit lame and needs spruced up. This is how it currently looks: =)PA(=
I'd appreciate any ideas for a new one or any ideas about the group in general.

the only AC game I've played was AC2 when it cost about $5-10. It was good, but that was enough for me honestly

Guys, tomorrow is the big day.
 Obviously an old ad, but it's going to be an awesome day tomorrow! AND Target is having a deal where if you buy two games, you get a third free, so I'll probably pick up the Halo Master Chief Collection on the One, too. |

^Good to hear on the subject of the Blue Bomber. And you can never go wrong with some Castlevania.
And while I'm finishing up Last Light, I bought Watch Dogs for the One today to tide me over until AC Unity and Rogue are released in two weeks. That's right, TWO new Assassins Creed games being released on the same day. Granted, one of them is on the One and the other on the 360, but they are in fact two separate games with certain ties to each other. Rogue takes place during the Seven Years' War and Unity during the French Revolution. Should be interesting. Edited by MillsLayne - October 31 2014 at 04:18 |

I've been playing this nice little exploration/platformer indie game. Its got a really cool atmosphere that I instantly click with and an amazing drone soundtrack to boot. It's like architecture lifted straight out of my dreams.

It just occurred to me that while I'm a big fan of final fantasy games, I haven't beaten a single one all the way through.

^Not a bad idea.
Check out the Mega Man games. You won't regret it.I'm getting back into this one, after being sidetracked by Destiny awhile ago. Just finished 2033 and now on to Last Light.  |

^ Supposedly, the story will continue on Half Life 3, although it hasn't been confirmed yet.

Just finished HL2 episodes one and two, and Lost Coast. I wonder what happened to the third episode. Don't you just hate it when stories like this are left in limbo, unfinished?

^ I was the one that said that. I know that game from seeing a friend playing it, but I never played. I'll have to try it someday.

Kicking it ol' school with:
 By the way, I remember someone saying that real-time strategy games are a bit too intense for him compared with turn-based ones. This one is real-time, but the gameplay is rather slow since it takes time to grow your infrastructure. So far I've played the tutorial and a single-player, where the opponents will engage you in combat only at your own initiative.

 Great game. I bought it a few years ago used for ~$15. Now I hear it's going for $70+ because it's out of print.Though short, it had excellent gameplay. |

 I just finished this (kind of) hidden gem of a game. It didn't seem to get a whole lot of recognition once it was released, although, seeing as how short the game is, I can understand that. Still a lot of fun (aside from the gunplay) with great art direction and soundtrack to compliment it. |
