I'm playing Day of Sex for the first time ever. I'm going to max out swimming and take the GEP gun.

I still don't understand the gripe with Infinite. If you upgrade the weapons that you want intelligently, make good use of Skyrails, and pick the right vigors I think it's a great twist on the standard FPS model. Aside from that, the story that Infinite provides easily tops any video game story I have ever played. I can promise you that once you finish the game, you'll come back with a different tune.

this guy provides a great in-depth critique of the game (as well as for several other games including the zelda titles from OOT to SS). while some of it may seem like nitpicking, overall I agree with it. I think the game was definitely a step down from the original Bioshock and the story wasn't all that great.

Is it a step down from probably one of the greatest story-driven shooters of all time... possibly. But to me, that seems like an insanely high bar to have. I see a ton of people hate on Infinite, and I just don't understand it. I think a lot of it is backlash from the universal critical acclaim, people love to be contrarian. When it comes down to it though, I loved the game. Haters gonna hate.

I do have to give Infinite this: I actually am playing it. I got bored of the original Bioshock playing the Demo. Though I'm still not sure if I would have stuck with Infinite if I didn't get it with Play Station Plus for Free, but.

well I haven't played much of anything recently, but with GOG giving away Dungeon Keeper, the original one, not the new crap one, I'd thought I'd give it a shot.

Finished up Bioshock Infinite today, and the game play certainly picked up towards the end, but even then it had a lot of dull moments. The story however was incredible and while was able to figure out part of the ending, it still offered a fantastic ending to one of the best stories I've ever seen in any medium. While it's not necessarily a great game, the story more than makes up for it.

well I am absolutely addicted to Dungeon Keeper Gold right now, it's such an amazing game both with it's graphics and gameplay. I highly recommend you guys get it on GOG right now while it's still free!

Got it and Dungeon Keeper 2 from GOG.

I still prefer Dungeon Keeper 2, but played the first one for nostalgia's sake

Playing Lightning Returns. I really like the new combat style, it's so much more satisfying

I'm playing Bravely Default right now, and I'm really enjoying the jobs. The amount of customization you can do with your characters abilities is really cool. Also, Tiz's costume looks like an onion knight.

I've started Fire Emblem Awakening, and I'll probably start episode 2 of The Wolf Among Us at some point soon.
