Lazy Gamers Unite!!!
Lazy Gamers Unite!!!
I feel there should be an achievment, or atleast a support group for those of us that maybe need to catch up on some gaming. I came to the Xbox360 in 2010 and man there were so many great games already out that I immediately had a back log of games to play. Then there was new releases during that time that now I'm sitting here looking at my shelf thinking man I really need to get caught up.
I just finished a marathon of playing Mass Effect 1 thru 3. Playing those back to back was awesome getting to see the story all the way through.
Now here is what I have left to finish:
Red Dead Redemption
Bioshock (all of them)
Deus Ex Human Revolution
Fallout 3, and New Vegas.
Of course I just got the X1 so I'm working my way through Assasin's Creed IV. Maybe I can form a subgroup here 2Old2Lazy .gif "18"){kind=small}
RDR and the Bioshock (haven't played Infinite yet) are both excellent.
I haven't played the others. I tried to get into Fallout 3, but it just didn't grab my attention.
So many games, so little time.
Eh...put those on the back shelf again and come play some ghosts :P
Definately gonna be on some Ghost tonight. Gonna send some FR tonight also to try and get more of the Ghost guys on my list.
RDR is such an awesome game. I really hope Rockstar comes out with another.
Ghosts is only for people who have finished their other games...get to work.
I've got a stack of games to finish on the 360. I have been plowing through the Assassin's Creed games so I can play IV on the One. But damn if Forza 5 isn't getting in my way. I haven't liked a racing game in ages and this one has sucked me in.
I kicked ass this year and added about 40K gamerscore. Completed 30 games to 100% GS.
Still have some things I'd like to finish, but I feel a lot better about my backlog now. I was trying to get as much done as possible before the X1 came out.
All those games you have listed are amazing. You have many weeks of gaming ahead of you. Add the Witcher 2 to that list also.
Witcher 2 is awesome
You should read the books. They are amazing and I am not into fantasy. They were written in the 90's and are still extremely popular in Europe. They haven't been all translated into english but there are fan translations avaliable for free. A couple of the books have been translated and are avaliable on Amazon.
I can't wait for Witcher 3 on next gen, should be AWESOME!
You can probably flick Fallout Vegas off your list there if you're pressed for time. Fallout 3 was awesome, but Obsidian did Fallout Vegas and it was a shadow of the game that Fallout 3 was.
RDR was an amazing sandbox game. The bioshocks were all excellent although the 1st and 3rd are really the better of the series, you could skip 2 again if you're pressed for time. 2 was OK but it wasn't the original team and it's just not as good as the 1st and 3rd installments.
Disagree with you here. New Vegas' story and characters were much more intruiging than Fallout 3's. Fallout 3 had the better environments but I found its story dull and boring.
I don't know. I enjoyed New Vegas. If the game wasn't so painfully easy on the hardest level I might have actually completed it.
I need to grab Red Dead Redemption and at least take the shrink wrap off some of the games in my pile.
Bunch of rookies. Heres Parcells contribution, or lack thereof...
1) GTA V - played 3 hours day of release, nada
2) Halo 4 - played 1 hour after release, nada

7) Fallout 3 - about one hour into campaign having just left the vault
8) Gears of War - Played a few hours co-op, nada
9) Half Life - have 2-3 episodes on the Orange Box collection, played maybe 2 hours
Feel free to crown me the champion now
I liked bioshock 2 specially the DLC minerva's den. I thought Fallout NV has better RPG elements and story than Fallout 3 but I like both of them.
Cannot wait for the Witcher 3. That game looks and I am sure will be amazing.
My 2 cents..... Fallout Vegas had better controls. Fallout 3 had a better story
Also, Fallout 4.....in MA?????
Ya fallout 4 is coming, it's just a question of when.
as someone who just recently finished F3 and almost 100% it, the story sucked. The world was interesting but there was nothing compelling about it.
sure but at least the side stories in Oblivion/Skyrim were good. F3's were not. I have done all achievement related quests, too.
Nope...Oblivion/Skyrim side stories all sucked. They're all "Sarcasmo, I left my precious lute in cave full of trolls" or "Archmage Jones, in order to save Skyrim you have to read this scroll while covered in magic moths." Cornball fetch quests designed to waste my time...nothing compelling about them, but at least the game was interesting to look at.
I think the only thing I can remember finding that was usable over the stuff I crafted was a set of Ebony plate armor that was awesome for sneaking. It was on some daedric quest. That was about it... It didn't really work for my play style which was essentially "run over and bash <target> with mace". Although, once I got that armor it became more like "pick off all minions with bow and then run over and bash <big target> with mace".
The important thing was that I didn't have to chase after people as they ran from me.
I've been focusing on finishing GTA V for the last few days. So much to do so little time. Now with Titan Fall coming in March and Elderscrolls Online in April I need to find a job where I get paid to sit at home and play games :)
Why are there no achievements for Devil's Advocate? That's my favorite game.
I'm trying to get as much out of the way as possible before ESO comes out. I forsee that game sucking up a lot of my playtime.
@jones... Ah, I see! I wasn't kidding. The game seemed too easy.
