What are you all playing?
I'm finally playing Fallout 4 for the first time and really digging it. I don't normally like crafting stuff in games, but I've found myself getting really into the settlement building. I still think New Vegas is top dog for me though.

Fallout 4 is grate - one of my favourite games. I loved establishing settlements, especially in a Survival playthrough where they can be pretty critical to success (resupply and rest/healing). But it's also just fun to see what you can build.
I think you'd like the Far Harbor DLC. The story is really good and it feels more 'fallouty', to me.
I should replay NV.

Yeah Far Harbor was really good, I accidentally started it without realizing it was DLC. It's been one of my favorite quest lines so far.
When I inevitably replay the game in a few years I'd like to try survival mode. Sounds fun, but I wanted something less hardcore for a first playthrough.

I mostly play on easy or very easy tbh, I rarely enjoy feeling particularly challenged nowadays. I don't have the time/energy. Survival is fun when you've exhausted the game and feel like something new, though.
How far into the main story have you got?

Not very, I've been getting distracted with side quests and exploring. I'm just now heading to the glowing sea for the first time, which from a brief glance online seems like maybe a third of the way through the story?
And yeah I'm starting to feel the same way regarding challenge in games. It was more fun grinding a difficult game as a kid with unlimited free time.

Whew finally finished Fallout 4 over the weekend. Clocked over 90 hours over the course of a month or so, which doesn't happen too often any more. Overall I enjoyed the game quite a bit, but by the end I was getting burnt out and ready to move on, and I ended up rushing the last third or so of the story.Speaking of the story, years ago I had read a major spoiler about the story online and the whole game I had that in mind, only to beat it and find out the spoiler isn't real. So that was a fun twist I guess but I actually think the story would benefit had they gone in the direction of the fake spoiler. The "spoiler" being that your character is actually a synth. How cool would that have been? I think it would fit the game perfectly.
Anywhomst what games are you all playing? I'm moving on to the Japanese Mario 2 for something different. I played through it on the Wii Virtual Console sometime around 2009 and I'm curious to see if it's as difficult as I remember it being!

Top five video games of all time? Let's go.
I haven't played many for a while. Only thing I'm really looking forward to is the next GTA. There hasn't been much released in the last 10 or so years when I stopped playing much that I feel like I've really missed. Hope that I'm wrong though. Red Dead Redemption being somewhat of an exception.

It's not necessarily a fake spoiler, because in Far Harbor your status as an organic is called into question by the synth leader who questions why you only seem to have one small memory of life before waking up in the vault, and of course he is completely correct as Nate is not an organic but a virtual avatar in a video game.

Oof that's a tough ask. I'd have to really give it some thought to come up with a definitive list, but off the top of my head in no particular order: A Link to the Past, Morrowind, Metroid Prime, Mario World, Metal Gear Solid. Ask me again tomorrow and it will probably be completely different.

You may be surprised how many good games have come out, it's easy to overlook them completely when you aren't paying attention. I'm pretty stoked for the new GTA too though.

I keep seeing this name pop up all over the internet but I've never gotten around to looking into what the game is actually about. For some reason I had in my head that it was like Binding of Isaac, but it seems that's way off based on your description lol
@previous (E)
Yeah that's a weird one. I actually had the thought when playing Far Harbor, damn that sucks for the people who play this before finishing the main quest, it totally spoils the twist! But even beyond that, the whole ever-present fear of people being replaced by identical synths, to eventually meeting synths that are indistinguishable from humans, the whole "are they people or not" debate, your relation to the guy responsible for creating synths, and just the focus on synths in general all make for a good lead-in to eventually revealing your character to be a synth.

I think it's just a fourth wall break meant to get you to consider what it means to consider somebody a real person. Because in truth every character in the game is fake.

I beat Lost Levels, and it turns out the SNES All-Stars version is much easier than the original FDS version. Gameplay is the same (with the physics patch of course) but when you game over it lets you start at the same level instead of having to go back to the beginning of the world. I recall a lot of the difficulty coming from getting to the castle levels with only a life or two and not having ample opportunity to practice before getting a game over and being put back a few stages. The last level in particular is pretty brutal and not being able to continually re-play it would have made it a significant challenge.

So I LOVED Bionicle as a kid and I still think the first Mata Nui Online Game is amazing. It is a true work of art and one of the best flash games I have ever experienced. As a kid I never played much of the sequel because it was so buggy. Well a somewhat fixed version is available nowadays so I figured I've give it a shot. Even if it's half as good as the first game, it will be time well spent!Well the sequel is completely different. There are a lot of little annoyances, like your character taking forever to walk to the next screen, all of your actions requiring you to watch slow animations, and the music bugging out leaving the game mostly silent. But the biggest problem is that it's so, so grindy! After 2.5 hours of playing, as well as reading various forum posts on the topic, it seems like the point of the game is to gather tons of resources, trade those resources for other resources, etc. until you have enough money to train your various stats in order to make playing the terribly unfun Kolhii matches easier. The ultimate goal being to win a match in every region. 2.5 hours and I have barely leveled up any of my stats, and even the Kolhii match in the very first region is still impossible! There are strategy guides online for streamlining the process, telling you exactly what resources to farm and which stats to train. But even then it still takes hours and hours and hours of mindless grinding. So I have decided to give up. What a shame that the sequel to such an amazing game could be so bad :(

Last night I played through Kirby's Dream Land 2 for the first time. Like all Kirby games, it was very short and very easy, but it was fun. The animal companions were cool, except the fish kinda sucked. They basically triple the number of powerups available, since each powerup has different behavior for each companion. Now I just got ScummVM going and I'm gonna try Maniac Mansion, another game that I've been meaning to get to for years.@1,277,730 (K)

The hardest part of Sonic 3D Blast was the controls. Slippery af and everything being rotated 45 degrees makes the dpad a subpar input method for the game.Anyway I've started replaying Mario Galaxy on Switch. I haven't played it in probably fifteen years but I recall thoroughly enjoying it on the Wii.

Within the captivating tapestry of Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo, an innocuous children's video game, resides a nuanced meditation on the paradoxical nature of freedom and captivity. The question posed is not who physically occupies the zoo, but rather who is truly confined within its walls: the animals, seemingly restricted in their enclosures, or the cars, symbolic of humanity's self-imposed constraints.
Putt-Putt, our intrepid protagonist, traverses a vibrant landscape replete with captivating creatures, from the playful primates, to the regal lions. While these wild beings appear to flourish within their designated spaces, the cars, rigorously adhering to paved pathways and inflexible traffic laws, embody a life of regimented limitation.
This dichotomy ignites a profound inquiry: who truly suffers under the yoke of constraint? Despite the physical boundaries imposed upon them, the animals retain an inherent autonomy of movement and expression - their actions guided by primal instinct. They revel in play, engage in social interaction and navigate their enclosures with an unbridled spiritual connection to their environment, unburdened by societal expectation.
In stark contrast, the cars, representing the pinnacle of human advancement, and despite their seemingly boundless mobility, appear shackled within their own constructed reality. They move in synchronised patterns, slaves to a preordained system of rules and regulations; their every action and trajectory is fated, woven by external forces. Their internal desires, their inherent yearning for exploration stifled by the dictates of social conformity.
The game's design further accentuates this thematic dichotomy. The animal enclosures, while physically bounded, pulsate with vibrant colours, verdant landscapes, and stimulating activities, fostering a palpable sense of animated vitality. Conversely, the cars navigate a sterile environment of monotonous grey, bereft of creative expression and imaginative exploration.
The culmination of Putt-Putt's journey, his escape from the confines of the zoo and the rigid confines of the asphalt tapestry, symbolises the potential for human emancipation. It suggests that true liberation lies not in the absence of physical boundaries, but in the abandonment of such societal constriction. Only by embracing our innate capacity for free will and venturing beyond the comfort of conformity can we achieve authentic liberation: we must become more ‘animal’ to reclaim our humanity.
Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo transcends its veneer of innocent amusement to offer a profound commentary on the human condition. The animals, despite their confinement, embody a spirit of transcendent freedom that eludes the meticulously ordered cars. The message resonates deeply, reminding us that true freedom demands a resolute rejection of externally imposed constraint, the internal restraint that feeds it and a courageous embrace of unlimited potential. It is only then that we are able to truly transcend our zoo. Only then can we embark on a journey of unfettered self-discovery. Only then can we reach for the beyond, for something more, for something worth living for.

For me, it's all about Baldur's Gate 3 right now, and it likely will be for quite some time. RPGs are my favourite genre of game, and it's very rare that one of this calibre comes along. Having an absolute blast playing a barbarian character for my second run.
I'd actually thought I'd still be deep into Starfield currently, but it hasn't held my interest. I really do enjoy parts of it, but I've come to feel that, overall, it's a bit shalllow and repetitive. I'll check back on it when it's updated a bit and the mod tools release, hopefully a combination of those things will revitalise it a bit.
@OP
I think that 4 is definitely my favourite Fallout game. Sure, I think Bethesda's writing is generally a bit less deep than Obsidian's, but the gameplay is fun as heck. I too very much got deep into the settlement and crafting elements.

The last couple days I've been playing the original arcade Ninja Gaiden. This game is fuckin hard yo. There are 6 levels and I managed to get through the first 5 alright, but the last level cranks up the difficulty substantially! Enemies do 2-3x damage in between rematches with all the bosses, who also have increased health and damage. I just couldn't do it, so I "cheated" and restarted the game with the dip switches set to give me extra health and more lives per credit. I've gotten further in the final level but it's still kicking my ass! I can't imagine actually playing this in a real arcade, especially since 99% of arcade operators probably kept the dip switches on the hardest settings to get more quarters. I'd be broke!!It's pretty fun though, and that's coming from someone who hasn't traditionally enjoyed beat-em-ups.

The last boss of Ninja Gaiden was a pussy compared to the run up to him. I wish I'd kept track of how many credits I used to know how much I'd have had to spend in the arcade to beat it.Anyway the last couple night I've been working through Metroid II on Gameboy for the first time. Really solid game, though I used a map from Nintendo Power so I kinda cheated. I pasted it into photoshop and added a black layer over it and erased the black as I played to keep track of where I'd been and hadn't. Basically streamlined the process of drawing my own map. Although the map made some parts more difficult because whoever made it had some kinda grudge against their readers or something lol. Look at area 4, none of the lines line up properly with where the paths are in-game, it's a complete mess! But it was the only map I could find that didn't spoil where all the items and bosses were.
Anyway now I'm not sure what I'm going to play next. I am open to fora suggestions

No, through MAME. I just stole the image off google. MAME supports changing dip switch settings if that's what tripped you up.

No I haven't! I remember reading about it forever ago and telling myself to play it eventually and then promptly forgot about it. Is it any good, or is its appeal mainly due to the context in which it was first released?

I was just reminded because of the map you posted.
The self-imposed challenges that I've seen people write about and how they lean into the traits of their character were what appealed to me.
The phase of my life where I was willing to learn to play a video game is gone. I did want to get into nethack back then, but I never ended up having enough time to.
Although in one of the few games I attempted many years ago, in the intro narrative it said something about a full moon (which there was - it changes behavior based on when you play the game). The atmosphere of the game drew me in and the calmness and anticipation stuck with me - much of it was prob just where I was in life though. Even now I'm often reminded of nethack when I see a full moon. It's almost like I'm nostalgic for a game I never really even played.
tldr: i dunno

For the past 8 months or so, I've been very casually working through Pocket Mortys, the Rick & Morty themed Pokemon ripoff. It wasn't interesting enough to hold my attention for long periods, but I'd pick it up for 5 minutes here and there when bored with just my phone on me and nothing better to do. Would often go weeks at a time forgetting I had it installed. Overall very bland game. I don't know why I bothered to finish it, but I did. Now to find another shitty phone game to be last resort boredom alleviator. Maybe Mario Kart Tour.dw !p9hU6ckyqw replied with this 2 years ago, 5 hours later, 1 month after the original post[^] [v] #1,285,001

Over the last month I've been chipping away at the 2016 Doom game and finally beat it this weekend. What a tremendous game. I'd previously only ever played the original Doom and Doom 2 and I'm amazed at how well they managed to capture the feel of those games while so thoroughly modernizing it.I've just started Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One on the PS Triple. It's kinda meh so far but I bet it would have been hella fun as a kid in the early 2010s playing multiplayer with three friends.

She's treated me well over the last 13 years, but her age has been showing for a while now. I've always told myself I won't upgrade until there is a game I simply cannot play at all. I think the most recent game I've played through was Starfield, which didn't run great but it was definitely playable.
I could buy a used CPU that would blow mine out of the water for pretty cheap, but then I'd also need a new motherboard, which may then require new ram (ddr3 lel) so I'll still be holding off. I just gotta remind myself there's still a million games on my list that I can play in the meantime

Shucks, I've been looking forward to playing Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart for a while now. I just recently finished playing through the rest of the series up to that point. Started playing it tonight and despite my very outdated PC, it ran surprisingly well. Absolutely gorgeous game, even on the lowest settings. But then it kept crashing over and over and over at the same part... Turns out that once again I have been foiled by my CPU's lack of instruction set extension support. This time, it's a more obscure one called F16C. I'm sad now. I would have preferred the game not even boot at all than to be teased like that :(

Just finished up Star Fox Zero, and it was mostly a let down. Some of the bosses were cool, as were some of the parts that actually felt like classic Star Fox. But the controls are pretty ass, and for the first half of the game it feels like every level introduces a new vehicle that controls completely differently. By the time you adapt to the shit controls for all the different vehicles, the game is over. Overall meh game.Next I think I'm gonna play Uncharted 3.

I've had a lot of free time the last couple weeks so I've been playing lots of games. I played through Uncharted 3 and 4 (amazing series btw, highly recommend. first game starts out really slow but if you stick with it, it's totally worth it) and have been playing the new Nintendo World Championships game. Pretty fun but a let down compared to something like the NES Remix series on Wii U and 3DS. Also played through Katamari Forever on PS3 the other day, it's pretty short but Katamari is always fun. Tonight I finished Sunset Overdrive. It didn't look all that great but I've never played a bad Insomniac game so I decided to give it a try. Once you get used to the movement it becomes really fun -- it's all about grinding and bouncing around the world to maintain momentum. The humor gets a little stale by the end but overall good game.

I'm going on a very long trip next month and for the foreseeable future all I'll have access to is a Switch and 3DS (and phone+laptop) so I'm trying to get in as many games as I can now that I won't be able to play later. Newer PC stuff, or console exclusives.What should I play next? I may only have time for one or two more. I'd like to play Cyberpunk or Horizon Zero Dawn, but those are both very long games and I'd hate to have to leave them unfinished. Quantum Break and Returnal both look cool too, and appear to be on the shorter side. Ideas??

Great games! They're all on Switch though. Some day I'll revisit them, haven't played them since Infinite came out.

If you have multiple Nintendo Switch consoles, don't forget to set the one you're traveling with to your primary console. You don't want to end up in a situation where you're offline but need to reauthenticate over the Internet to access games in your digital library

Very good advice, but I'm an amoral degenerate who pirates most games.

I still haven't played the first one! It's been on my list forever, I need to get around to that.

You should add the Alone in the Dark series to your list if you haven't played them yet

I actually didn't realize that was a series. I remember seeing some talk online of the 2008 game back when it came out and thought it was a one-off. Never played it or even really looked into it. The 1992 game looks fascinating, gotta look into it more. Thanks for the suggestion!

There is zero chance gaming will be better this year than last. Let them go out on a high note (or at least mid). Unless they're all super stoked about Switch 2 for some reason (it's just more Switch with magnets).
