Yeah I get quiet sometimes. Depends on what fandom I'm into. But currently back into TMNT, so here I am!

I don't know of any retro gaming stores in this general area that last too long. Whereabouts is it?

*Netkeeper* · 04-02-2016, 09:40 AM

While I'm aware this is probably a bad place to post this question, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a game me and a friend [online] can play. What kind of games do people play with their friends? Preferably a free browser game or something, or something cheap on Steam; not looking for a console game or anything like that. And relaxing, I wanna play this while I'm in bed.

*Powder* · 04-02-2016, 04:52 PM

Steam's got a boatload of free FPS titles (TF2 & Warframe are my personal favorites) but if you want something relaxing for bed time that may not tickle your pickle. Maybe try the browser version of Cards Against Humanity?

Yeah, and first-person anything tends to give me motion sickness. I have to play that stuff in super small bursts.

And aw man cards against humanity is what I do with a group, haha, not with one and occasionally two people. But something like that would be great.

*Cure* · 04-07-2016, 03:04 PM

Quantum Break is pretty neat!

*raph27* · 04-09-2016, 06:09 PM

Finally started playing Lego Dimensions. The gameplay is same old TT Games formula, but I'm loving all the references and details from different franchises that they put in.

*Powder* · 04-09-2016, 08:08 PM

Aside from revisiting lots of stuff, my latest title is The Adventures Of Pip. Very fun so far! Would recommend it to anyone who likes platformers and/or the whole retro pixel-styled indie scene going on in recent years. Great music, attractive visuals, smooth & accessible gameplay, creative concepts, not crazy difficult (Yet, anyway, I'm only heading toward world 3 as of now), worth the dough.

*snake* · 04-09-2016, 11:35 PM

Pokken is very fun. I'm maining garchomp and I haven't lost once (yet). Great game. My only problem is the blocking doesn't always work, which can be annoying in tough marches. For a modern fighter, it's a little stiff as well.

Freeman · 04-11-2016, 04:58 PM

I also playing Pokken lately.
It wasn't until late in last league that I lost my first fights against CPU, but online I'm strugling to keep my victories over 50%.
Very happy to see Nintendo taking Pokemon series into fighting enviroment in the right way.

*Prowler* · 04-11-2016, 07:20 PM

Bought Link's Awakening DX at the 3DS eShop. Already beat the first dungeon. Let's see what kind of journey awaits me.

Baxter Stockmen · 04-13-2016, 10:58 AM

I have been sticking with Halo 5 recently. I like how competitive it is. The most recent Halo World Championship was a blast to watch.

*AT-Man* · 04-13-2016, 07:09 PM

I have killed 5 bosses in Dark Souls 3 and played it for about 15 hours. None of them have been that hard so far, but the levels are great and lots of neat enemy designs.

TonySiegel · 04-15-2016, 11:58 PM

shinobi 3 for the 3ds...

mainly got it for the sound test...

o yea i want to try to beat it finally as well...

*Icebot* · 04-16-2016, 06:31 PM

I'm playing Mario 64, in fact, I'm kinda playing while watching people play it on YouTube. What I mean is I'm watching people race each other in the game and when I play it like this, it feels like I'm joining them. It's so much fun!

*Cure* · 04-17-2016, 05:38 PM

Bravely Second is so frustrating with how heavy they put on the status effects, but I can't put it down.

*CyberCubed* · 04-22-2016, 08:27 PM

Starfox Zero is fun so far, just remember to change the controls from the motion stuff at the start. The arwing/walker/landmaster stuff is fun, but the gyrosphere with the small robot is a low point so far...really reminds me of the weaker levels from Starfox Assault in that it shouldn't be in the game.

Otherwise though I'm pretty content with it.

Have only played the first two Star Fox games, but my least favorite levels in Star Fox 64 were Titania and that underwater one. I liked Macbeth, however.

*CyberCubed* · 04-22-2016, 08:31 PM

Starfox 64, especially the 3DS remake, is still one of the best shooters ever created. The 3DS remake is fantastic.

Eh, I still own the N64 version, so I don't see the need to get it. Same for Ocarina of Time, hell I own the master quest version bundled with WW of that one for the GC.

I might, however, get Majora's Mask 3D.

*CyberCubed* · 04-22-2016, 11:23 PM

The remakes are great. The Starfox 64 remake also now gives you level select and lets you save between levels, something the N64 version didn't do. It also added a new score attack mode. Plus the graphics are a huge improvement, you never realized how outdated the 1997 game looks like till you play the 2011 remake. It looks like a Wii era game now.
