First and second aren't near as bold of endings, still very good depending on the choices you make in the game, but nowhere as deep. Half life is another story. I played through 1 & 2 a couple of years ago and I can't wait for the third to come out. Can't imagine how others who played it when it first came out feel. I'd probably favor a fourth bioshock over HL3 though.

I think the main one I want is Portal 3. 2 was pretty much my perfect game. But yeah, I guess I could deal with those two as well.
For all of the hope that it brings...

That would be pretty good, especially if they took the portal gun out of the lab, but then you'd lose the characters and gels.

Holy sh*t, how did I not notice this thread up until now? Video games + AB blasting through the speakers are the best combination ever! Anyone plays GTA V on Xbox here?

Dead Space is being given away free on Origin. I have no idea what this game is about, but if there's 3 of them, it must be decent.

Dead Space is pretty cool. I've played all 3 of them. It's sort of a horror/shooter, but I never thought it was very frightening. More gore than actual scare moments.

Just play bf4 and when you're flying jets or helos, yell "incoming Titan" into the headset and crash it right behind a squad mate.

If anyone here is still having doubts about Titanfall.....

In my opinion, the fact the game does not have a traditional story (more cinematic, no pvp, etc) does not effect the game in a negative way like I thought it would at first. The gameplay mechanics and the overall feel is pretty smooth. I never find myself thinking of doing something and the game does something else instead or get screwed over because of the game itself. Graphics aren't everything, I know, but Titanfalls graphics were decent enough on a 1080p HDTV. The downsides to the game are that there's not enough gametypes, maps, or character customization at the moment, but i'm sure more will be added in the future.

Titanfall = 7/10

Anyone know anything about Watch Dogs? Just started paying attention to it the past couple of days and it looks amazing! I haven't really had the urge to buy any new games lately for various reasons, but this one seems like a must have!

The game is set within a fictionalized, hyper-connected version of Chicago, Illinois, which is managed through a centralised system called CtOS, developed by fictional company Blume. The single-player story is told through Aiden Pearce, a highly skilled grey hat hacker who can hack into the CtOS, granting him access to various electronic systems, either to obtain and control information or to interact with these systems to his advantage.
