Started Skyrim last night. Good fun. Took a while to get into not having VATS targetting, but got the hang of blocking/striking now. Just been to some Barrow and learnt a shout off a wall. Not sure what it does yet.

Ahhh shit, half the fun of Skyrim is the amazing mods!
Either way if this is your first time playing, be prepared to waste plenty of time, cos you won't be able to get off it ;)

Yeah, I'm actually quite worried given how much time I've poured into Fallout 3 and NV before :lol:

Basic character build for my start, Nord with an emphasis on one handed combat. Done the first couple of story missions (getting the first bit of stone) and just been told to go fight a dragon by some tower, but not doing that yet. Joined the Companions to get a bed/place to store my stuff, on their first mission in Shimmermist Caves which is where I've been caught by those chaurus.

Been playing trials fusion for the last week and i have to say it's great fun. never played any other trails games tho, so i can't compare. Trials, killzone shadow fall, outlast, resogun and few other free games are keeping me company untill watchdogs later this month.

Just started Max Payne 3, it's so fucking trippy/jerky/stop/start. Yeah shooting people in the face in slow-motion is good but maybe mix it up a bit. The original had a story at least, beyond 'just shoot all the brown people.'

it's just not the same game man, never got a chance to play 2 but the first is still probably top 3/5 games for me, so dark and ominous, sick story and setting

3rd one is entirely just killing as many as possible and it gets exhaustingly boring

I'm not totally down on it. I played it earlier for like 4 hours and got a little notification saying I'd shot nearly 50 people in the dick, and killed 250 with my uzi. That seems to sum it up so far.

It's reminding me horribly of Uncharted. I don't really understand this whole "cinematic gaming" thing, where you watch a CGI movie and occasionally press buttons to allow the movie to continue.

Cinematics =/= quick time events.

If used correctly cinematics can be a great way to communicate to the player exactly what the director has in mind. Especially if it can be easily missed or cause confusion later in the game.

They're on their way out though. I feel that the oculus rift and other vr devices are going to be the primary platform for story driven games in the near future. Camera locked / 3rd person cut scenes don't work well in vr I imagine.
