Best to get a head start while you can. MP3 is going to be on hell of a 25GB download.

Its an awesome game though. Getting bullet time head shots should be alot easier using a mouse.

I'm still waiting for Rockstar to reveal a release date for GTAV!

E3 was really bad this year overall.

Any MMO players? Now that my term is over, I'm thinking of playing an MMO during my free time.

Secret World just went Free to Play (I've heard good things about it). Guild Wars 2 looks good too.

(I definitely won't pay for a monthly subscription though/ unless the subscription is only like $5 a month)

My girlfriend recently got hired by Square Enix as a game tester and she has somehow managed to go her whole life without playing Chrono Trigger.

Immediately after finding out about this, I bought it on the Wii Virtual Console for her and ordered (not asked!) her to play it right away. Seriously. It's criminal to be a gamer who hasn't played that game but it's even more so if you're getting a job with the company that made it!

Play Path of Exile. Half ARPG, half MMO. Better than both.
Certainly better than Diablo III. It's more like the true sequel to Diablo 2.
It's in closed beta until January 23rd, but you can buy a beta key for 10$ (which will also give you 10$ of microtransaction points). Starting with open beta, the game will go free to play, and have it's last character wipe ever.
It's hardcore, and it's not Pay2Win.
It's just awesome.
(So awesome that I even got to be invited as an alpha teste, and now as an ingame and forum mod)

I really love the preinstalled Karaoke-App that came with my japanese WiiU!
Too bad I can't rly make use of it in my tiny appartment with way too thin walls.

I hope I'll be able to use it when I'm back in Germany, though! That would be just perfect!!

So who's been playing Bioshock Infinite and why aren't you if you like games?

This is the one I've been waiting for... I haven't felt this 'immersed' since HL2 all them years ago. I hope the game keeps this steam/intensity and quality up right to the end (I'm about 4 hours in).

I haven't read much about it yet.. what makes it stand out among other games? I've been Minecrafting lately.. sometimes throwing a game or two of CSS in too. Couldn't get into CS:GO.

Pokemon X/Y
SSB4
KH3
Dark Souls II
LoZ: A Link Between Worlds & Windwaker HD
Bayonetta 2
SMT x FE
Deus Ex Director's Cut


These are a few of my favorite things (that were announced at E3).




In all likelihood though, I probably won't purchase any of these.


Maybe Pokemon.



Also, I've never actually understood why anyone would purchase an XBOX, unless you absolutely have to have Halo. I literally can't think of a single good, must have, exclusive that Microsoft has had since they got into the console game. DRM/always online/Kinect bullshit aside, I seriously don't get it, even for the previous two systems.

I bought a Xbox/360 because i liked the controllers and felt especially suited for the NBA 2k series.

That said, I have my 360 controller hooked up to my htpc with Steam and a Wii U, so I'm probably already done with the next generation.

EDIT: I've been told I'm also a "casual" now because I only play my yearly installments on Pokemon, NBA 2k, and Nintendo franchises. Truth is, these days, I'd rather be cooking.

EDIT2: Also fuuuuuuuck shooting games so hard.

While I'm still hmm about whether or not to buy next gen, I think after recent information and press releases that anyone would be a complete idiot to buy the next Xbox. I don't feel like going into it much, but put it this way... if Xbox 360 was Microsoft's Master of Puppets, then the Xbox One is their St. Anger (or Lulu even).
