Dead Rising 3 and EarthBound Beginnings ( NOTE: if you want Mother 3 as badly as I do, make sure you get both EarthBound Beginnings and EarthBound on Wii U virtual console. Strong sales for both titles should prove to Nintendo that we really want the full trilogy available! )

i m loving classic card game SOLITAIRE by blacklight studio works on google play....challenging deals and beautiful and clear interface...Must try, it's delight!!

Well I WOULD be playing Nuclear Throne, but the most recent update completely borked the game's controller support. What makes this worse is that the update is entirely a VERY unnecessary one that does nothing but add a redundant (pointless) new menu to the starting screen. How... how do you completely wreck game input with this? So for now, this is utterly unplayable. And Steam's one major flaw is that there's A: no way to revert to previous versions of something, and B: no way to STOP it from auto-updating. You can SLOW the auto-updating by telling it to only update when a game is launched, but there's no way to STOP it. I dont know what dimwit thought this was a good idea, but hopefully they have been deported to Mars.

Being that there's been zero interesting game releases for quite awhile now (and probably wont be any for a long time), it's back to the usual ones for me. Minecraft, Isaac, Splatoon, and whatever shmup is being interesting at the time. Some Pokemon when I'm feeling patient enough.

I've been playing Subnautica. It's an early access game, the first I've played since I bought Minecraft in beta. It's ridiculously immersive. I feel like I'm in a James Cameron world that's part The Abyss and part Avatar (I disliked the latter film but it is beautiful). Beautiful and terrifying; there's a tension to going deep into underground caverns or down to the ocean basin with nothing but a little oxygen tank and knife, with only the light of your flashlight lighting the way (why aren't there more games that have absolute pitch darkness?).

I would recommend the game highly even in its current early access form; it is definitely worth the money. But if I have any issues it's that the game needs optimisation badly. The framerate struggles to maintain consistency and I'm not sure where the bottleneck is as CPU and GPU for me sits well under full load.

Binding of Isaac Rebirth.

You can sure tell if you're having a seriously OP easy run of easiness if you start dozing off in the middle of it. Note to self, the full Stopwatch is the most OP thing I've seen in a long time, makes runs boring, maybe dont buy it next time. Heck, half the monsters in the game dont even work quite right when the thing is active.

I'm playing a lot of Splatoon and since yesterday I'm strangely excited with Bloodborne. I bought it a few months ago but never got really into it until last night. It's a very very good game!

I've been playing this pretty unique strategy game named "Crusader Kings 2", the basic premise is, you select a medieval dynasty(or customize your own) and try to navigate and survive through medieval politics and intrigue, all the while making sure your family stays on top. Your family could be as powerful as Emperors and Kings, or you could pick the harder and in my honest opinion the most rewarding path, and start as a lowly count, in charge of a single county, then rise to Duke, King, then finally the highest position in the game, Emperor.


Perhaps my most favorite part about this game is that instead of just playing as a country, you're playing a person, and that person doesn't live forever, that's right, your character actually isn't immortal, he can die from a battle wound, being maimed, ill, or simply of old age, which is why it's important you marry and have a son or daughter, but preferably a son, as obviously in medieval times it was the man who would inherit your titles, daughters are useful for alliances with foreign powers as you can marry them off to a ruler or that ruler's son.


Then when you die you play as the son, he has kids, you play as one of his kids and on and on it goes. It's also important to make sure when you play as the next in line, to keep a check on your uncles/aunts and brothers/sisters especially if they have the ambitious trait, as they could possibly be constantly plotting to usurp your throne or simply not waste the effort and attempt to kill you if they are next in line. You also have vassals that you have to constantly try to keep happy and content otherwise they might get fed up and try to revolt against your rule, it gets a bit tricky to more the territory and vassals you get, but I just love it so much. Some of the traits are hilarious, I once heard about a dude who's son and heir was a Genius, Attractive, Lunatic, Homosexual Dwarf(Yes these are traits you can have in the game xD)

Old Streets of Rage Sega games.

Spent two whole days trying to defeat the third boss on Bloodborne, the Blood Starved Beast.
Uuuuhhhh I hate that thing! I wasn't having difficulty problems until it came out. And the worst fact is that I was always getting him to something like 20~15 percent HP and then being one shotted by one of the stupid abilities that he have when he's dying.
I finally did it tonight after entering an enrage mode and going all aggressive on him when he was dying.
