What are you playing right now?


See, I'd buy the XBox 360 version of The Crew now that it's on the bargain racks at Walmart as I think it's the only (non-Formula 1) XBox 360 game with the Ferrari license that I don't already own, but I refuse to buy any game that requires an Internet connection for single-player mode.

It's not so much that being forced to take my console online is some unbearable hardship or anything, it's just that, if I buy a game, I still want to be able to play it in a decade or two, even if the servers are turned off in the interim.

Playing through both Hitman Blood Money and Hotline Miami. Both of which I got through the Steam Winter Sale along with the Portal games.

Blood Money I'm still trying to get a good feel for. But I find it intriguing so far.

Hotline Miami I found myself absolutely addicted to and I ended up powering through the main game and currently doing the extra missions. It was really tough in a lot of areas, and for whatever reason, the game crashed a few times mid-level, forcing me to do entire chapters over again. But other than that, I'm having fun.

Not to mention you could get it on PC for free a while back.
 
Just completed Mankind Divided, once you realize the microtrans are useless and unnecessary, it's a pretty good game.

Just downloaded Skyrim and modded it to my heart's content on my laptop. Can only run it on low quality but the immersive mods really make up for it.

How is it? I was a massive fan of the Digimon world games and have played the majority of them besides 4 and the wonder swan games, last I played was translated Redigitize for the PSP

And myself I've recently gotten back into Age of Empires II:HD
Been playing it a lot since I picked up all the expansions on the cheapo, having a blast with the new campaigns and mp

AoE II is my first, only, and favorite AoE game. I'm not a fan of the combat but I would always play with the AI and try to be the first to build a World Wonder after we've declared peace.

I ended up having a surplus of Praxis Kits by the end (nonlethal without detection, so that made a lot of augments useless).

Really enjoyed the main story, and System Rift was pretty cool. Breach was just stupid, no idea why it exists.

This year, I'm going to look into getting a cheap recycled desktop computer that I can upgrade into a gaming PC. I think I can say with 100% confidence that a recent game like The Crew wouldn't run on this laptop. I can barely get games from 5 years ago to run on this thing at low res.

And what processor does this laptop have?
 
Still playing through Final Fantasy 6, but I've got the band back together and now I'm absolutely terrified of taking on Kefka's Tower. Theoretically I'm ready for it, but I have the sinking feeling I'm gonna get my ass handed to me.

Haven't played system rift, but I did get one jensen story for free with it due to it being day one edition - Breach I could not get in to, totally useless tack on for microtrans.
 
Been playing Shadowverse, a Hearthstone-alike card game, since it's been getting glowing reviews by big name Hearthstone streamers and other people who've played HS but disliked how unfair it was - Shadowverse hits the 'fair' sweetspot for a lot of people. It's fairly beginner friendly too, as someone who's honestly shit at card games like this. It's fun and if you like anime weebshit art, it has plenty of that too.
 
And what processor does this laptop have?

I had to check "System" because I really don't know but it's Intel Core 2 Duo L9600 2.13GHz CPU.

It's an HP laptop I bought "used" 2 years ago and it was the cheapest laptop in the store back then. It's fine for Internet and photo editing but it struggles with decade-old games like Driver: Parallel Lines.
 
I've drunkenly been playing Final Fantasy VIII on the Steam since I got it the other day during a drunken Steam sale haze. It's been an experience since I haven't play it since it first came out back in the good ol' days.
 
Hard West is actually pretty good. It's like grimdark demon cowboy Fire Emblem-meets-XCOM.
 
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger, Star Citizen Alpha and FTL.
 
Currently playing Hitman: Blood Money for the first time.

So far, I'm enjoying it. It took a little bit of time for me to get used to how it controls and feels, but I'm kinda starting to dig this game. So far, I've just beaten the Suburbs level.
 
I decided to try Far Cry 4 Arcade Poker just to get the payouts for the actual Far Cry 4 game. It kinda fails as a companion app compared to Arena Master (which was actually a superior game) but I don't mind because I used to be a sucker for digital poker games and will still load one up once in a while. This app is pretty much pointless unless you really want extra money ingame.
