      It's hard to explain. It's got a quirky sense of humor and a unique style, but the big thing is that it's relaxing. At least, for me. It's also a collect-a-thon. To me though, it's nice to have something I can kind of just chill and play and not feel like I need to be "on" for.

      Animal Crossing games never really interested me, but I decided to give this one a shot when reliable people were lauding how fun it was. I'd say, don't knock it until you try it, but also, it's not for everyone.

        I got addicted to to AC for Gamecube. Is this one similar? Better?

          From what I understand, it's very similar but improved in a lot of ways.

          Like I said though, take that with a grain of salt because this is the first one I've played.

            I need a good game on my iPad for work... I mean for the bathroom... I mean for when my power is out.

            Any suggestions?

                  Any of the PC gamers here playing Shadowrun Returns? Three of the guys I follow on Twitch are playing and it seems pretty cool.

                        I think I've finally stopped myself from searching for deals for games for the time being, so hopefully I can start making a dent in my backlog instead of adding to it nonstop. Doesn't help that I have games that I've already beat, just for a different system lol.

                        So I think I've mapped out my next few weeks or so of gaming. I highly doubt I'll get anywhere close to finishing this list before I pick up Splinter Cell: Blacklist on 8/20, but we'll see how far I can get.

                          I played a bit of Rising Storm. Talk about a hardcore WWII shooter where a shot to the chest is good enough to kill. This is definitely a game where tactics and teamwork are extremely important, and it can be surprisingly fun.

                            I think my computer officially bit the dust this past weekend, so no Shadowrun for me. I loved the SNES game, and this looks to bring a lot of that to the table.

                            I also went to Twitch for the first time ever last night and watched some Binding of Isaac runs, and now all I want to do is play BoI

                            Anyone here have any experience with Asus laptops? I'm thinking of splurging on one of their ROG ones.

                              If I didn't have so many backlogged pc games, I would pick up Shadowrun without hesitation. I never played the origional, but the new one has me excited to play. I did catch a bit on a stream and it looks really good.

                              If you like Isaac, you should check out the racing league at boilr.org.

                                That's what I have. Only had it for a month now, but so far no complaints, runs great.
