Last night I completed Secret of Monkey Island Directors Cut.

Secret of Monkey Island: Directors Cut

The dish: Remake of classic adventure game. All puzzles are the same and there is no new content except for a modern art style and high definition music.

The low down: Pretty good remake. I abhor the ios version, mostly do to its atrocious control scheme, but playing it on pc gets rid of that complaint. It's just Monkey Island for the 2010's and the game is as ageless as wine.

Next game: Limbo

Limbo is so boring and I yawning as I play.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #9 on:** August 04, 2012, 09:50:04 PM »

i wanted to do something last year where i had a huge fucking backlog of games i didnt play or complete that i bought last year and wanted to either play them to completion or until i give up or donate money tocharity and live stream it with commentary. i ended up not playing any of them :'(

Himu · « **Reply #10 on:** August 04, 2012, 10:55:01 PM »

limbo just won't end. sigh.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #11 on:** August 04, 2012, 10:56:02 PM »

i played little over an hour of Bully

it's cool. it appears they successfully made a GTA game but in a prep school.

Howard Alan Treesong · « **Reply #12 on:** August 05, 2012, 01:51:15 AM »

Bully is mad awesome. Best Rockstar game total. RDR close second.

Limbo is awesome. HEATHEN

I really wish there was a pc version of RDR $:-\$

pilonv1 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 05, 2012, 03:45:12 AM »

I waited nearly 12 months to complete RDR because I didn't want to start in case there was a PC verison. One of my worst decisions in a while.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #16 on:** August 05, 2012, 10:20:13 PM »

pretty decent act 1 twist in Bully.

might as well throw this in here as well. i'm hijacking your thread himu. nothing you can do about it

I'm done with Shift 2. The enjoyment I had from racing early on is gone later in the game. The faster the cars get and the more frantic the races become, the less fun it is. It's weird that this is normally the inverse for nearly every racing game. In Shift 2, when the races get crazier you start seeing the issues with the racing model and the physics. I don't know if this is realistic but I don't enjoy it when taping the back bumper of a car leads the car to go flying into the air like nothing. It's just too hairy to enjoy. Plus the structure continues to annoy me. Dumping money into upgrades for a car only to never use it again is awful. I really liked racing my Lancer X, why can't I keep using it game? Solame.

Himu · « **Reply #17 on:** August 06, 2012, 12:58:06 AM »

I'm playing Still Life after I beat Limbo. Then Just Cause 2.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #18 on:** August 06, 2012, 03:44:22 PM »

I put in like 2 hours into Limbo, I think thats enough. Great game but I don't feel like ever coming back to it.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #19 on:** August 06, 2012, 04:11:38 PM »

It's only 3 hours long.

Himu · « **Reply #20 on:** August 06, 2012, 04:20:35 PM »

Yep, I'm on the last few sections of the game

Himu · « **Reply #21 on:** August 06, 2012, 11:04:09 PM »

Himu · « **Reply #22 on:** August 06, 2012, 11:59:59 PM »

Beat Limbo.

The lowdown:

Next up: Still Life

Himu · « **Reply #23 on:** August 07, 2012, 12:04:14 AM »

Finally, a real game. Forgot how good this is.

archnemesis · « **Reply #24 on:** August 07, 2012, 07:00:20 AM »

Is it better than Syberia?

It has cloud saves, I think.

Limbo rules you dumb nerd

Himu · « **Reply #28 on:** August 21, 2012, 03:34:24 AM »

Still Life isn't as good as I remember it. I'm going to put it behind and play something else instead. Just Cause 2 is on hold because I'm replaying SHENMUE 2.
