I love the Dragon Age series, but I find myself having a difficult time wanting to play Inquisition. I don't really like open world games anymore. I just want a good story.

I really wish I didn't watch as much of that link as I did. Dude just walked through some walls and pretty much avoided all npc interaction. Pretty rad. How does one figure that out?

Tomb Raider was amazing (the newer one I am referring to). Playing Dragon Age Origins at the moment.

From what i can tell so far on 3, just stop the series after you play origins.

Origins is definitely the best by a long long distance. I didn't mind 2 that much. It was alright. But idk why I can't play 3. I just can't get into it. I just really don't care about the issue at hand. The Darkspawn and civil war of Ferelden was at least interesting.

Thought Hardline was going to suck. Can't put it down, it's addicting.

Started with Far Cry 4 on PS4 this weekend. Cannot get used to the damn controls though, so I keep molotving myself to death.

Other than that, the graphics/character motions make me feel like I'm watching a freaking movie. Really really top-notch.

Got into GTAV Online, too. Always get rocket launchered while I'm driving down the street to a mission. Do not recommend.

I'm not kicksave, but it's pretty bad. Especially on Xbox one/ps4 as they stripped out alot of features and modes. If it drops to 20$ or so its worth a play, but not at full price.

It's a decent building block for next year when they will hopefully have more time to do a proper ps4/xb1 version.

My PC is a little underpowered for the game, so the up close graphics aren't as good as they could be. Stones have a sort of 'fuzzy' texture going on.

There were some really standout moments in the game. Once you travel to Shangri-la, stuff gets wacky. And Pagan Min is my all-time favorite video game bad guy. Won't spoil anything, but by the end of the campaign, I hard a hard time thinking of him as the villain.

I purchased FFXIV for pc now that I got a new laptop. I love Triple Triad, but other than that, it hasn't pulled me back in.

Fifa itself's actually broadcasting the qualifiers for the FIWC - "Fifa Interactive World Cup" (using Fifa 15) - using two very well-known names in eSports (Joe Miller & Leigh Smith). Part of me wants to think this is actually kinda a big deal, since it's Fifa hosting it & they're purposely going for the big talents in the eSports community (I follow ESL/League of Legends stuff... it's basically my TV). But I'm not actually sure. *Shrug* Either way, if you want to check it out...
