I actually thought that was one of the better FPS games released in the last few years in single player. Given that I don't play multiplayer games ever it at least lasted for a reasonable chunk of time to warrant what I paid for it.
This is how I feel about it. I can still play the first over and over, it's endless fun. I didn't even bother finishing 3. Oh yea it's beautiful and, hey, ya'all need to go buy a new graphics card, so, woohoo! but seriously , don't bother. ON TOPIC: Last game I finished was LA Noir recently. Definitely enjoyable. I'm stuck with what to play next. I did play Hotline Miami but got really bummed out when it constantly started crashing :/
I'll second that. I've also found crysis 3 to be a lot more dull than crysis 2. I've replayed crysis 2 about 6 times and crysis 3 I got bored about half way into the second sitting. As for crysis 1, I played it about twice, but last time I booted it my 5870 was struggling whereas my old gtx 280 would run it fine ! Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
Weird. It may've seen the newer card and defaulted the graphics settings a bit too high, what presets was it on for each card? edit - I did love BF:BC2 for its multiplayer, but I thought the single-player was very corridored and generic. It just felt so much like the winning entry in a Call of Duty lookalike contest. Every mechanic, fight, environment and weapon was over-familiar to the point that it zoned me out. Genre saturation, I guess. I'm sick of war games, and kinda sick of clone FPS games generally. Crysis 3, for all its visual flair and cool design elements, was a cookie-cutter FPS made to a well-rehearsed formula calculated by marketing departments. There wasn't a shred of innovation or inspiration in it (that wasn't lifted from the previous games in the series and dumbed down).
Well I've kind of finished Oblivion, Knights of the 9, Shivering Isles and a few add-on quests, I'm usually a few years behind the latest games played it for around 460 hours and now I rarely find even the smallest quest but I still like roaming around it, can't seem to stop Also can't stop playing Crysis especially since I found some texture and lighting mods and fan made levels, it looks gorgeous and even with just a MSI N560GTX-Ti Twin Frozr II it can run most settings at highest level with good fps, new games, bah, who needs em
Metro : Last Light. A good game, though at times rather annoying. Glad I finished it though... Crap, is that the time? :S
Defender's Quest Valley of the Forgotten. Great game, really funny dialog in the cut-scenes. If the first run through feels too quick, no worries, the Play+ is quite a bit harder and adds in some new side maps.
It wasn't perfect by any means but it did have some strong points. Namely - destructible scenery and buildings* longevity* and gorgeous graphics* * I'd never played a war game up until COD MW2 and wish I hadn't * At least it lasted longer than the 4 hours I got out of COD MW in SP (and I'm *crap* at FPS) and I paid £39.99 for that /groucho face. * I know I know, I shouldn't be fickle but holy moly it had my jaw on the deck so many times ! I guess if you are a veteran of war games then it could be less interesting but to a laymen like me I thought it was excellent. Absolutely loved the snow level It just irks me that single player experiences have been completely ditched and forgotten about for online play. Now I know I probably stand very much alone on this (due to being autistic and thus, not very sociable !) but I do like my single player games. Best game I have ever played was Fallout 3 simply as I really appreciated all the work that had gone in for loners like me I was actually surprised at how long Metro LL went on for in the end. I kept expecting it to finish all the time during the last four hours but no, kept going ! and just got better and better
No you're not alone. I love a good single player campaign and, whilst they are being neglected, there are still some good ones out there, especially if you don't mind owning a console or two to supplement PC.
Yeah it has gotten a bit better over the past 18 months. For a while there it was all MP games that totally neglected the SP experience but we've had a few corkers of late I really, really want to like Dishonored. Will crack on with that later
Agree with that, I have a mild level of Aspergers not too anti social but certainly don't mind my own company but I am very obsessive, seeing/listening to a friend playing online multiplayer was enough for me to know I would quickly fall out with everyone when they started shouting their mouths off at me Games like Oblivion are a haven for obsessive lone gamers like me as I have to explore every single inch of the game and I'm sure Skyrim will be as rewarding when I eventually dedicate a year or two to playing it, not played Fallout 3 but I will try it if it's a game I can get lost in and obsess over for a while
Fallout 3 is an Aspie's Disney World mate. Honestly, it's pure unadulterated escapism It's all brown and dirty and blown up but yet, so beautiful. And yeah, I've walked every last square inch of it. I spent about a week just walking up the map, stepping across a bit then back down.. You have to really it's so huge and easy to miss things otherwise ! At last check I'd put over a thousand hours into it which isn't bad given that your first playthrough with all the DLC should take about 70 hours. Now THAT'S a single player game 70 whole hours I got so carried away I ended up buying tons of collectibles too haha. About the only thing I don't have is the Pipboy clock, but then I wasn't going to spend the $1000 asking that they demand.
1,000 hours, post apocalyptic, I like the sound of that I got carried away collecting Tomb Raider stuff until the things I really wanted got too expensive then I sold it all apart from the games of course
Yup adored TR. A bloody great game that ! I too started going back to find the tombs I deliberately skipped to save for later
AC:II. Once I started I Couldn't stop. Finished it in one playthrough. Now I've got the mother of all migraines.
Tomb raider. Finally got around to completing it great game just wish I could have maxed it, my poor p.o.s. computer just couldn't cope. Even on high settings it was struggling, one day maxed @ 2560 will be mine...yes it will.
