I am in gaming bliss right now. Sleeping Dogs on PS4 and Sunset Overdrive on XB1.

Are you planning to play 2?

I doubt I'll have time to finish it before 3 drops in a couple weeks. I played and beat 2 when it first came out but haven't touched it since. I NEVER played Origins before so I wanted to at least play as much of it as I could. So I'll just have to read up on the story and choices to finish my save file from 2 to import into 3. I like that it still syncs your save from your account and then you can still change things or add more to set up 3 how you want.

Feels like they're testing this type of thing out now before the new Mass Effect drops whenever the hell that'll be.

Played DA:O until 6 am this morning, now it's time for work before I can come home and play more.

Spent/wasted a lot of time playing through the various back stories before finding one I really liked with a class and combat I liked. Also some of the characters I made I really didn't like the look of and it was making it hard for me to stick with. Finally settled on a human Mage with the shape shifting specialization. Really liking it a lot about 9 hours in.

If anyone likes to play Zombies, I borrowed BLOPS 2 for PS3. DDRGuido is my PSN. Looking to play online with some peeps I know.

Managed my First "City of Gold" run.

Forgot to bring bombs.

I did manage to kill off a few mummies and see the Book of the Dead before I died though.

Getting to Hell's gonna be a chore and I know it.

1) I knew I should've stopped watching after I saw "Dragon Quest"
2) WTF did I just watch?

I keep putting off S2 for some reason. I can't remember j.hen, do you like it better than the first?

Personally I liked it more than the first season. Only because getting to pick things up as Clementine where they left off at the end of Season 1 is so awesome. I love Clementine as a character and hope that she stays as the player character for the rest of the series. But I think that'll be hard to do with all the different ways Season 2 can end depending on what you choose to do.

Picked up the first season of Walking Dead for PS4 on Thursday. Runs super smooth, no hiccups that plagued the PS3/Vita versions. Finishing episode 4 tonight. Going to pick up the second season sometime this week.

Good to hear it runs well - will be picking it up soon.

Finished Season 2 of Walking Dead. Such an excellent fucking game. Cannot wait for some news about Season 3, all that's been announced thus far is that it'll be out in 2015.

The Pro Controller is great, but I am SO over Nintendo's weirdo backwards buttons. First, it's YX/BA instead of XY/AB. Second, Bayonetta 2 has X and A as your primary attacks, instead of what I think should X and Y, IMO. As I'm typing this I'm realizing that I can probably change it.

Still, what the fuck is ZR!?

Sleeping Dogs is one of my favorite games for a reason. The DE looks great. I'm not sure where all of those reports of frame rate drops, screen tearing and shit came from. I haven't noticed anything. I did have the game crash on me once during a mission but when I played it again it worked fin. That's the only issue I've had. I also love how all of the DLC is incorporated so I get to play some of the smaller DLC content that I never bought previously. Some of the extra cop missions are really fun and short. Plus there are extra missions to earn more Face XP.
