I'm probably going to play Rome 2 Total War to death when it comes out and then bitch about it some more on my thread because they're already releasing DLC content in waves Tongue I've been playing Shadowrun returns as well but aside from that nothing lately, I've been focusing on my work mostly which includes practising coding my own 2D game engine.

One game I did play a lot though awhile ago was Startopia and I still enjoy it Cheesy highly recommended.

Actually, Payday 2.

But, I played a lot of DotA(2) and LoL.

Lately, 100% Team Fortress 2.  I don't know what it is about that game, but I can't stop shooting people in the face with rockets.

I also sometimes play CiV; that's another really addicting game.  BNW made it all the better, though now it seems science victories are a lot harder to reach; I'll be in year 2030 and still won't be anywhere near the last technologies.

I've been playing Starcraft2 Heart of the Swarm, skull girls, persona 4 arena, just got Dear Esther so I'm going to play that and getting Saints Row 4 next week.

@b!z
saints row 3 is worth a try, had lots of fun playing it with my friends.

Where to begin... Recent favourites have been Saints Row, SimCity 4 (i.e old one) when I can.

Never tried Saints Row (looks too much like boring old GTA), but the old Sim City games are good. The new one is cancer. They should have named it "Social Sim City Friends 2 Facebook Edition"

Firefall!

I tried a bunch of other games but they failed to keep me occupied. And firefall is still in beta!

It's a free to play game but it gives no tangible advantage to players who do pay which is amazing. It has both PVP and PVE modes and both are awesome!

It doesn't have a campaign yet but it's going to be more interesting than any other game. You will be able to lose part of the world for weeks or months and each place in the world will have uniqueness and
certain advantages. It is most definitely worth checking out and getting a little used to it before the beta is over and we get the finished game.

It's a little boring since there isn't that much content yet.

If I had a good PC I'd try crysis 2.

I love Command and Conquer Kane's wrath. I also love Age of Empires III and Age of Mythology.

Yes. I was including "Trouble in terrorist town" I see it very similar to Minecraft otherwise, making what you want in a game with a 3d aspect. However, I much prefer Minecraft because it has much more to offer.

Command & conquer is such a good franchise. I like red alert, generals and even the first person shooter renegade. They are very old games which I still play for time to time when I have a little free time.

Mighty Quest for Epic Loot, DOTA 2, Sanctuary 2, and Payday 2 are keeping me occupied lately.

Occasionally the Humble Bundle (https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly) will have DRM free games for Linux.  The last game I played was Defcon.  The only winning move is to play against me.  I have never won.

I played Defcon a couple of years ago. The concept is pretty interesting (worldwide nuclear war), but the gameplay is quite boring. All you do is wait for the big missiles to launch :-)

Command & Conquer
Garry's mod


Too very awesome games. Depends on my mood. I like to play strategy games and War games.

C&C is one of the only RTS games I enjoy, along with Age of Empires.

I have Garry's Mod, but I don't really see the point of it. It's more like a tool for manipulating 3D models than a game (unless you count mods like Trouble in Terrorist Town).

- Minecraft

- AssaultCube

- And Yet it Moves at the moment, but it should be done in a week.

Minecraft is a 'classic', I think people will still be playing it 20 years from now :-)
AssaultCube looks like a crappy CS clone. And Yet It Moves doesn't look really fun either, although I haven't tried either game.

Has anyone here tried Broforce? It's going to be released on Steam soon, and the prototype is quite fun with 2 player local multiplayer. I can't wait for the full version of the game to come out.

...an adequately pleasant rendition of Richard Strauss' "Blue Danube Waltz"...
HAL approves.

Give it a shot. It gets more and more impressive as years go by - what they were able to cram into couple of tens of kB of RAM, and process at 1MHz. 3D graphics, an actual auto-pilot, inertia, radar, thousands of worlds with different markets to trade between, missiles, flares, even some AI swarm algos controling groups of ships.

Not to forget an adequately pleasant rendition of Richard Strauss' "Blue Danube Waltz" (at least on the C64)

I've never tried DotA (or LoL), but I don't think I like the genre very much. I've tried DotA 2 for a short time but I never finished the tutorial.

DotA seems to be mostly about fast mouse reactions, and knowing characters + skills by heart. Is this true?


Well, it is quite easy to know the heroes skills. And you don't really need to be fast with the mouse.
I mean, not like a FPS (counter strike). It is a strategy game, so you have more delay to think and play Smiley


You have 2 teams, at both sides of the map, and you have to attack ennemies and creeps in order to get gold (you get gold when you last hit an ennemy hero, unit, or tower). With the gold you can buy items to make you stronger.

Elite 1984? It looks like Space Invaders or Asteroids, but apparently it's a space sim like FTL? I have to try it in my free time Smiley

The world equity and currency markets.  The graphics suck but winning really pays.



Is that your full-time job, or just a hobby? Looks like great fun to me.

I think the last (good) game I've played was the Walking Dead. I just finished it (again) yesterday, and I can't wait for Season 2 :-)

400 Days DLC is boring.
