Yes.Get this game.NOW.Everybody!

 

Was very meh'd by Slender.

 

Thoughts on Torchlight 2? I think im about to dive into it.

 

I probably won't dive into it for some time, probably years. Hack'n'Slash's just haven't had enough to keep me. I don't get enough enjoyment out of the grind.
On a similar note, although not indie, I'm a little unsure how much I'll enjoy Borderlands 2, as even though I do enjoy FPSes a fair amount, I'm not sure whether the pure action will be enough to hold me for long. I'm okay with that, though, as I hardly judge games upon how long I play them for. Rather I judge them on how whether I enjoyed any of the time they DID hold me for. I cant say Torchlight, FATE, etc have managed that enough to warrant throwing the cash at TL2. :/

 

Play it multiplayer yo. Get it for PS3 and have FBB sit down with you and fight over loot.

 

I'll get a PS3 some time, but not for a while. :P
Have no fear, I plan on playing it with friends, not solo. :D

 

Played the shit out of Torchlight 2 tonight with ppl on mumz. DEFINITELY worth the $20. So much fun.

 

Some games I like in no order of importance, selected because pixel arts and my furious love for it.

- 8bit commando - Kinda like Contra, tried the demo and loved it. Art is awesome for 8bit palette.
- Owlboy - Tried the early demo some time ago and loved the gameplay and art, art especially.
- Axiom Verge - Kinda like Metroid, comes around 2013. Hearing it plays like Metroid and looking at the art, propably gonna love the fuck out of this game.
- The Iconoclasts - Also kinda like Metroid, insta love'd.
- Treasure Adventure Game - Little bit Metroid here too, love love.

 

So anyway, how's NOT playing Monaco?
Cos PLAYING Monaco is AWESOME! :P

 

You Sir should always read RockPaperShotgun. The only site worth reading for PC games:

Agreed, it's one of the best stealth games I have played.

 

FTL - Faster than Light : an excellent 2D rogue-like/spaceship simulator game, entirely based on randomness (which, in my book, means awesomeness). Try to navigate from system to system while avoiding the troops chasing you, make interesting (or deadly) third-type kind of encounters, collect scraps in order to improve your ship, buy weapons, new crew members or new technologies, use it to bribe your way out of a hard spot, trade it for some missiles or some fuel and so much more... Like any good rogue-like, half of the fun is in dying. Also, you can name your ship and your starting crew, and that's a big plus.

Excerpt from Captain Ryu's log, Day 12 : Why, why, why didn't I send Topher to the med-bay room sooner? Why did I try to make him repair the O2 generator while he was so low on health? Ok he's the one with the more skills in repair but I really should've sent Sierra or Echo. Now he's dead, the engines are shutdown, the fire that started in the weapon's room has now spread to the shield operator and the ship is almost out of O2. Oh wait, now it's completely out of O2. Quick, everyone to the med-bay! Oh shit, what's that now? An asteroid field? You gotta to be ki... *static*

Not my favorite (as I haven't played it yet). But I found this game today and it is very promising. I think I'll have to try it this weekend.

I have the game and although I havent played it much (mostly due to time contraints) its really fun and very Mario like. Definitely more fun with a controller.

I dont have a creditcard, so I can't buy it, so I've been begging my parents to buy it for me for about three weeks...
maybe if some people could help convincing them its safe to buy stuff on the internet?
just saying "I agree" or something is probably good enough!

 

My dad: "Good enough"
TY very much!
