I really am thinking highly of purchasing Tekken Tag Tournament 2 for the Wii-U, the addition of playing as Nintendo themed characters is a nice add on.

Oh and lately I've been playing New Super Mario Bros U, been trying to see if I have the care to 100% complete it, so far I've 100%ed world 1 and 2, working on 3. :P

Recently beat Donkey Kong Country Returns, but I still need all the KONG letters to unlock The Golden Temple. And holy hell, was Tiki Tong a tough boss especially getting up all the way to the top of the volcano. Overall DKCR was a really awesome game!

I have officially purchased Tekken Tag Tournament 2 for the Wii-U and my god it's incredible! Really addicting, I love it, gonna play it a whole lot more tommorow after finishing homework.

Other then Ninja Gaiden 3 and Mighty Switch Force Hyper drive, there is nothing I want on my wii-U as of now (MAYBE Sonic All-Stars), so we'll wait for e3 2013 to see what is cooked up. :D And February of course for Rayman Legends!

I just beat Far Cry 3. Talk about an action curve, this is a modern example of how to build up a climax. You start out the game as a fragile, weak little human being with nothing but a weak little pocket knife and a really clunky feeling character; by the end, I swear that you're Rambo x10, diving off a cliff with your wing suit, landing on one person with your knife only to stick the knife into the guy beside him before even standing up, grabbing that guy's knife out of his pocket and throwing it into another's skull, jumping from there and grabbing a hold of a zipline and then landing in a helicopter and commence shooting down other helicopters and blowing up buildings, constantly pumping yourself up with endorphin drugs to prevent yourself from dying.

The ending is no Red Dead Redemption, but for a first-person shooter, they really made you care about your player, and the ending is very satisfying.

Weekend deal for Faster Than Light (50% off). I bought it recently and I really like it, but it's really taste-dependent. You could say that about anything in life, but in this game, I think, you either like the genre or you absolutely despise it. Try Northernlion Plays FTL on YouTube to get a taste of it.
Ravaged 66% off. Don't know the game, but it looks like it's going to be a first-person-shooter.
Don't Starve is 20% off. It's kinda funny. Look for Don't Starve by The Yogscast (Username 'BlueXephos') to see someone play it.
Those are the three I can find.

Wowowow, FTL on sale? So now it's only €5 right? That's something to consider!

EDIT: I can't seem to find anything about the sales on Steam. Did they already end, or have they yet to begin?

And another bot joins those who would write upon this thread.

They're over, but there are often minisales every weekend.

Oh that's odd. I found that sale for FTL, like, one minute before posting that. But still, it's only 10 euros.

Another bot? Did we get boarded by an enemy Engi cruiser? Was it an attack drone?

Finished Arkham City the other day, haven't played the DLC yet though, but the game was awesome, so anyone who still hasn't played it and liked the first game/likes Batman/likes fun should pick it up.

Played Dead Island for a couple of hours and got bored and uninstalled it, but to be fair that was partly because I have a backlog of better games to play first. But it's not really my kind of game anyway.

Installed Mass Effect but I'm gonna wait until I move into my new flat and clear some time to actually play it, so I'm looking forward to that, and then of course Mass Effect 2 afterwards.

Also trying to beat Halo 4 on legendary, which I've never attempted on any of the games, so should be interesting. It's frustrating as hell so far.

And of course Minecraft 360 edition as always.

It really sucks that they took that out!
It's also pretty stupid that the local multiplayer is basically the same as online multiplayer, even featuring the same limitations and the voting (which is totally unneeded if you're all together in one room...)

They did what now? The idiots! I really dislike companies for making mistakes like that. It may be budget cuts, but you don't cut out the parts of the game that make the game the most fun (for the most people).

I still find MK7 to be very enjoyable, and very good tracks too, but it could have been so much more. My main complaint is the music. Wario Shipyard is without a doubt one of the coolest Mario Kart tracks ever, and the music is, well...



Now compare this to the previous Wario stages:


'

Wario & Waluigi stages are always the best, so a good track would be nice to come with it. Anyway, I do still play this game near daily and think that what it did have was pretty damn good.
