This. I love the Elder Scrolls games, but they're not nearly as entertaining as the Fallout genre. Fallout has great combat, stories, and a humor that you don't find in the Elder Scrolls universe.

I played Fallout 2 (I think.. the one with the son looking for the dad) It was cool, but it got old much quicker than Edler Scrolls imo...

Right now I'm all over FIFA 14 on PS4... Won Champions League and am now in the knockout stages of the World Cup...

I have tried playing Outlast (got it free on PSN)... man that game is genuniely scary and disturbing.

Might be a bit soon to expect an Elder Scrolls game within a year. Maybe a reveal or some early screenshots at E3 next year, yeah, probably not more than that though. Bethesda seems to space out Elder Scrolls games by every 4-6 years, so I would expect the next one to come no sooner than Fall of 2015 or 2016 I would wager.

He said reveal. On the other hand, if they make another elder scrolls before making a next gen fallout I will be unhappy

greyhammer caught it, I'm expecting only a reveal within the next year. The last one came out Nov. 2011, we're moving on 3 years removed, so I expect another Elder Scrolls game to hit the shelves within 18-24 months.

Taking into account differences of taste, this is outrageous! :)

Seriously though, I lost 140 game hrs to Skyrim before meeting, dating and marrying my wife. Now I haven't played any games in almost a year. I would leave work around 3:30 - 4:00 and put in another full day playing that game, usually stopping around 1:00 am just to fall asleep and wake up around 6 to do start the cycle again.

I love the open world of Elder scrolls and I expect them to only continue to build on their already successful model. It's such an immersive storyline. I wish other companies would replicate this with unique worlds/characters. I think a space exploration game with similar style would be a huge win (of course, the devil is in the details).

I actually would love to see a massive world like oblivion in a 2d game. It could have rolling releases for more content and have a complex 'find & combine' algorithm that would allow players to search the world and combine items for new weapons/armor/home goods/etc. I need games that I can play in small increments and don't penalize me for lack of time (Halo, all FPSs)

I used to play far too much Halo: LAN parties with Halo 1, all nighters with Halo 2, getting whiskey'd out playing Halo 3 (and sticking people in the face), finally started falling off in Halo 4, played a little Halo Reach at a friends. Just don't have time to play like I used to.


Walk down memory lane, I hope you enjoyed.

Picked up Titanfall last week. I've been a huge Call of Duty fan and I still am, but I think Titanfall is the game that could ultimately end Call of Duty. Titanfall is an amazing game

So I picked up Madden for PS4 on discount... I was all about starting a Franchise with the Brownies and tyring to build them up on hard settings... but with all this JFF talk I say screw the Browns...

maybe the Bills??

What team should I become an owner for and why?? reps abound for input. Must be challenging.

Jacksonville? Is that challenging? Maybe the Dolphins?

Actually, I say pick a struggling team that has some former alumni on it so you can have an ND connection too.

Vikings would be good for that as you've got a number of players there. Not the worst team you could take over in the league though.
Arizona certainly isn't horrible, but you'd have Floyd to throw to, not to mention Fitzgerald.
Lions would have Theo and Tate


Sorry, lots of options...but if you really want a challenge, heres my one suggestion: take a team like the Raiders, pickup Quinn or Clausen as a free agent and build the team up with one of them.

I'm thinking of the Bills and trading a late round pick for Clausen and building him up...

think that may be fun... but IDK if the bills have their old unis in the game... have to roll with the 90s Bills unis or it may be a deal breaker...

Fins might be good... Jax... very challenging, but yeah, can't do it.

I am so mad at the recent mock drafts... so very butt hurt.

I'm am so over not having the 1980's orange pants in these games too... have to go all Kevin Mack and Hanford Dixon on it.

Honestly i think he is exactly what we need. Is there a more boring sports team in the country? Maybe the padres or the Milwaukee Bucks, but come on i want the browns to be the first story on Sports Center. JFF has "it".

I have no interest in the Browns being 'it' for the wrong reasons... Win games and they'll cease being boring... Continue losing while gaining social media interest due to the circus? No thanks

You mention the brewers, I would say the are far from boring... For all the wrong reasons.

In his defense he said the Milwaukee Bucks. And they've always been pretty boring. But I agree with you about JF, I wouldn't want him on my team no matter what.... And I'm a Lions fan so things are already pretty bad.

Are you in our clan?????


Anyway,

I started my franchise with Cleveland... traded for Jimmy, already building him up, and traded away depth and future picks for another shutdown corner and another first round pick for the next draft (now have three.. ;) )

I'm actually really impressed with the detail and depth of owner mode in this Madden... good stuff...

Now, if the Browns draft dickhead I'll delete the franchise save, hit the pipe, and become a Jags fan....

Got out my PS1 two nights ago and got back into WWF Smackdown 2. Last night I got my save game to the point of unlocking everything in Create A Wrestler mode so I'll be making a few missing stars later.

Recently moved and found my old Monster Rancher game in a box of miscellaneous stuff, so I've been searching for my PS1. Just can't figure out which storage bin I had it in.

Is that the one you put in bar codes and got monsters? I vaguely remember some game that you could do that on

Take out the disc while the game runs, put in a CD or DVD, and then put the game back in and it creates a monster for you to train. I would spend hours trying different CD's from my stepdad's expansive collection when I was little.

I've been absolutely dorking out to Microsoft Flight Simulator X for the past three months or so. It's an incredibly expensive hobby, but it gets me in all the right spots.

I'm flying a 737-800 NGX from Amsterdam to Bucharest (EHAM - LROP) as I type this. It's a lot of fun and I've learned a hell of a lot about aviation since I started.

Here's what it's like. (This guy's rig is a little better than mine, but it's close.)

Innsbruck is considered one of the top 3 most dangerous approaches for an international airport in the world. Pretty intense if you're into it.

Edit: Dork alert **** I just realized he landed at RWY 8, that's not terribly hard. It's RWY 26 that's a whole thing. Visual approach hugging the mountains the whole way in. Crazy shit.

Wargame: Red Dragon. The game is f-ing amazing. Its the third the Wargame series.

Essentially, its a decently realistic real time strategy game set in the 1970s through 1990s. The game fairly accurately models over 1,400 real units from a number of countries.

You command infantry, tanks, helicopter, aircraft, and ships in real time battles with anywhere between 2 and 20 people in a game.

Although the game is mostly multiplayer, it has decent single player campaigns as well.

Here is the launch trailer: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/lw3az0LsKc0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Its incredibly cinematic also, but usually the action is too intense to be able to sit back and soak it all in.

Been playing:


--Madden on PS4, great owner mode even if the game play still lacks… took the Browns to the AFC title game in year three this past weekend and lost in OT to……. Denver…. Fucking Denver. Like the 80’s all over again, I was so deflated.

--MLB The Show, about a week behind the actual season. Great game

--Been on a classic Castlevania kick. Castlevania I, II, III for NES, Dracula X Chronicles and SotN on Vita…

I swear Castlevania III on NES was created by roid-raged masochist’s. That is the hardest game I’ve ever seriously attempted to beat. I’ve straight called people liars for claiming to have beaten it… lol. It’s the stuff of nightmares.

--Want to get Lament of Innocence on PSN soon, I thought it was a good prequel game with great boss battles when it first came out...
