Video Game Discussion

I don't play many video games anymore, I used to play RPGs incessantly though. Lately I've only been playing League of Legends from time to time, I still suck at it. If there's anyone on the board who plays, feel free to add me. Username: Regular Troll

I play League of Legends as well, hard to say if I'm good or bad though.

I attempted to play Stars Wars: Knights of the Old Republic while disgustingly hungover two weeks ago. The kind of hungover that stings your eyes and turns your muscles to jelly. Needless to say I quit after about two hours of not knowing what I was doing or where I was going.

I haven't touched my PS3 in a while for gaming - just for netflix. Games are so expensive now that I don't even bother anymore. The last game I purchased was NHL 2013, and hardly played it. Still like Black Ops, but again, it's hard to find time to sit down and play much.

I so wish they would release a new Manhunt for PS3 - Manhunt II was just outright fantastic on the old PS2. Not sure why I was thinking about this, but......

The Xbox One was announced today, and I am completely underwhelmed. Seemed more about all the extra stuff than about gaming.

Hmm, I'll set up a US account and we can play sometime. Need to get the interwebs all set up at the new place first though.

I may give that look. I've heard all manner of news about it but otherwise I'm out of the loop. The only game I want to pick up for Xbox 360 is the new GTA. Then I'll be ready to make the switch.

I heard today that Sony's stock went up 9% yesterday due to the Xbox announcement. Show's you how much Microsoft did wrong there.

Add me on there too, haven't had a chance to play a game with Dan yet, but I normally play late at night/morning.

TV ads for Last of Us look really interesting, plus designed by same guys who did Uncharted, which was a fantastic game!

Check into getting Playstation Plus. You pay for it like Xbox live, but they have a lot of streaming games, new and old, on there. They also have a ton of free games, or trails, which is an hour of gameplay for new stuff.

The funny thing is, I grew up in the '80s - had a Colecovision, had the old Adam computer (from Coleco), good friends had the classic C64, C128 (oh yeah baby - moving up!). I appreciate the old style games so much more. Although, the graphics the games today have are just simply amazing.

I hope to find an old Colecovision at a yard sale one day.

That being said, I just turned 40 this spring, and a kid that I coached in hockey last year was talking about PS3 games and I had mentioned that I played certain games. He says - wow, I never heard of an "old guy" playing video games. Yep, that's me - old video game playing guy.

Just started playing State of Decay. A pretty good survival zombie game. Worth the $20 on Xbox live.

I can't wait to pick up The Last of Us!! The reviews have been amazing! (Although I've only been looking at the numbers, as I don't want to have anything spoiled.)

Me too. This looks awesome.
