Deus Ex tomorrow!! Is no one else excited? I've even got the Collectors Edition and everything. I've honestly put 300+ hours into Human Revolution, so longing forward to have a new one to plough through.

Just got to go on an Internet blackout again until I finish it.

I know there's been tons of backlash against No Man's Sky, but I finally got to play last night and put 4 hours in, and absolutely love it. Screw the haters

I had an ultra riveting, incredible comeback, 80 minute game of Dota last night. Just shit I love/hate that game so much.

Yep. I really enjoy the game too. I'm about 16 hours in, and I can't wait for work to be over.
It's got it's issues, but overall the joy of exploration is relaxing and exciting. It's been a good time for me so far.

NMS is not a game for everyone. That's for sure.

I thought this video review was pretty spot on: https://youtu.be/LbF0deLM5_M

Oh Steam, you piece of shit. :lol:

I can't install the PC game that I bought on release day from EBgames because the game isn't released on Steam. I mean, lol.

I can't afford to do an allnighter, so i'm settling for a 5am early rise to get some time in before work.

Started Dark Souls 1 over, since I figured out I could buy the dlc online and load it on xbox one.

Just finished replaying LoZ:OoT. The last Ganondorf battle is by far the worst part of that game (I don't mind the water temple like most folks). I don't want to play tennis with that mofo. The Ganon battle sort of makes up for it, but it's still a lousy boss battle. Great, great game still, just a little underwhelming in the end. :p

Also, Majora's Mask > OoT

I finally got around to finishing first playthrough of Mankind Divided with Pacifist Achievement in about 20 hours with loads and loads of sidequests that I didn't do. Pretty darn good, though I think that Deus Ex games don't get truly good until you replay them with different builds and tactics. Unfortunately my gtx780 barely scraped 35fps on Medium settings, so I'm kind of wanting to get 2x AMD RX480s and run them in Crossfire to make my definite replays even more enjoyable.

Got a ps4 earlier this month and have been on off playing bloodborne. I had only played a little of demon souls (wasn't a fan) but this is already one of my favorite games.
