I think it is impossible to take Vivi as anything but a troll, because nobody's opinions on video games can be this awful.

Please. At least I can back my opinions up. And Pike can vouch for my taste well enough.
It's called having higher standards than you lot.
It's called being a sourpuss who is incapable of having fun. Actually, aren't you an accountant? This explains everything.
No I'm not an accountant. It was boring and dull so I left. It was that or kill myself to liven things up a bit.
And I have a lot of fun with games. A lot more than most people I'd suspect since I only bother with the really fun stuff. Not run of the mill sandbox game #34.
While I was playing Run of the mill sandbox game #34, a chap by the name of Iceglow burbled off on a long rambling story about how wonderful he is at the game. I responded by throwing a knife at his horse, striking it in the skull, and sending him flying arse over elbows off the horse, whereupon he landed in a field of wild boar, who proceeded to trample him. Every time he got up, a wild boar would come steaming in and knock him down, causing more and more obscenities to utter forth from his mouth, until eventually one knocked him so hard that he ended up beautifully ragdolling down a hill, onto a road and was trampled and squashed by Quin, who happened to be riding past on a stagecoach at the perfect time. I think I can safely say that this was, in your words, The Really Fun Stuff, and I am glad I bothered.
I'll second most of Paul's list, especially the Mass Effect, Red Dead Redemption (one of the finest games ever made, from a story point of view even more so than GTA V), GTA V and Saints Row (I need to pick up 4) recommends. Will also add in Burnout Paradise as a trout ton of fun if dated (especially online if Paul has his copy still)
Shooter wise; Halo 4 was a bit disappointing as it isn't bungie made I suppose that and the new enemies feel rather unbalanced. Spartan Ops if you can get past the lag involved is really good fun though. Halo Reach probably has better multiplayer mechanics though although 4 can be an enjoyable experience if you've not played Reach or 3. Speaking of which Halo 3 is free right now with XBL Gold.
Gears of war is a magnificent series and some of the toughest 3rd person game play out there; when me and Psy get our asses handed to us on a plate half way through the 3rd games hardest setting to the point that we've never picked it up to try again (still looking to beat that damn Lambent Berserker boss! whenever you're ready to rage quit some more dude) I'm yet to play the new Gears that prequels the series but I'm not exactly sure I want to tbh, the trailers showed "new weapons and skills" which aren't in the other 3, I get that yes; we need new things to make the game more interesting or appealing but why not provide us a reason for these things not being do-able in games set later in the universal timeline.
Farcry 3 is amazing and expansive, though once you've done most of the side quests to obtain the special weapons and top items it becomes quite routine and linear. I mean sure you can go scavenging for the collectibles (all of which can easily be found by buying maps showing their locations in the world) but realistically it becomes; visit local radio tower, complete outposts, do story missions, rinse and repeat.
Tomb Raider is sitting on my sideboard yet to be played, as is Deus Ex Human revolution
Also; Minecraft! I cannot stress this game enough to you, the hours of fun that can be had just dicking around and not actually doing much of anything is awesome.
I tell you what, Steve has just made the best post in this thread.
So it's more fun when you abuse Steve? I could see that, though I think we could probably agree that'd be true of most games with any multiplayer component.Originally Posted by Psychotic
Ohhhh, so that's why he was so smurfing livid. xD
Thanks
If I had to add comments about Call of Duty or Battlefield games (I've played them all lol) Battlefield for storyline, CoD for multiplayer Infinity Ward > Treyarch but Zombies > Spec Ops.
Also about racers:
Forza is brilliant for petrol heads as it's the closest to Gran Turismo you'll get if a little too easy, not played Horizon yet but that game looks beautiful. Just avoid using the rewind option in races as it takes the fun and challenge out of doing well.
Thaaaaank you! God there's so many games mentioned in this thread, haha.
Better hurry up and get a job so you can buy them all and then not have time to play them.
But I already played Bioshock; suggest me more?
This be a serious issue for those of us who have been out of it for a while.
Haha, sorry dude, I am the last person to ask for recommendations. I made this thread because I am clueless!
Bioshock 2.But I already played Bioshock; suggest me more?

Bioshock Infinite.
