Non-Sims Gaming

yea. the good thing about the cutscenes in AC3 is that you can now skip them. They never did that in previous AC.

It's fine to watch the first time, but if you die, sometimes you have to watch them again. It's like, really? >.> They should all have the option to skip.

[Avelina]

Yea I know. It's annoying >.>

If there are any other non-sim games I am in love with, it's The Last of Us for the PS3. It's so packed with emotion and beautiful environments despite all the decay and various infected running around, and for once I have absolutely no complaints about the casting. It's just one of those games that keep you on the edge of your seat about to burst into tears either from uneasiness or witnessing a heart wrenching event, and it's impossible to put down the controller. Just one more chapter! Only, you can't stop there because oh shit everything's in a downward spiral and you have to see how it turns out!

If you have a PS3 and haven't tried this game yet, go do it. It's creepy and upsetting but believe me, you won't be sorry you picked it up.

I didn't know if I'd like LoU but I loved it. The scenery is so beautiful and I love the relationship between the characters. Even the weapon building is awesome. I hope they make some DLC for it so the story can continue.

I'm looking forward to the new Assassin's Creed coming soon and also Watch Dogs. I just saw an extended gameplay for Watch Dogs and it looks incredible. It'll be an open world game as well.

I'm sure there are others I can't think of right now.

I'm kind of surprised they haven't released a DLC already considering how well the game did, though I imagine if there were any they would probably only be for multiplayer.

[Avelina]

I am surprised too. Same with TR. Wish they would have more missions.

[yuichen]

There's a DLC coming out for TLOU soon. I think Thomas said next week. No idea about TR though.

[Avelina]

Is it for multiplayer or single player?

[yuichen]

No idea. I haven't looked up anything about it.

[Avelina]

aha! Just looked it up. They have a single player story coming up on Feb. 14 but that's the only single player dlc. There is a multiplayer one rumored for July.

[yuichen]

Ah okay. Well that's good at least. Maybe I should try to finish in crushing before then. Idk if it will mess up that gameplay or not.

[Avelina]

I wouldn't think it would but who knows. That's exciting that it's coming up though.

[yuichen]

Yep
