That is what I did, but only because I am cheap and waited for the DLCs to all be 75% off. Either way won't effect your learning curve overly much, however some of the features in the DLCs are nice.

At this point with computer games, I'm taking the cheap route. I will get The Old Gods eventually and the Byzantium/Rome one since you recommend. How often does the downloadable content go on sale?

open world action game. kind of a cross between GTA (for the open world and collectible crap) and Assassin's Creed (since its all on foot and you climb around and junk).

Definitely save a lot. Not only because of freezes and glitches, but because if you make one mistake you have to live with it.

Click on the link in the post and it will take you to the IGN Page for Infamous Second Son. There is a video tab where you can watch trailers, reviews and gameplay and take a look at it.

Open-world action game. Your character is a super hero who can climb buildings and shoot lightning out of his hands and stuff. It plays mainly like a TPS, and you'll find that many of your powers roughly correspond to "handgun," "sniper rifle," "grenade," etc. That's not a criticism, just a description. There's a karma system where if you make good decisions your powers level up in a particular way whereas if you make evil decisions they level up differently.
The original inFamous was okay but pretty repetitive. inFamous 2 was quite a bit better to the point that I thought it was pretty seriously underrated. The main problem with each is that the story was kind of dumb, at best, and the main character was hard to like, but inFamouns 2 was a pretty-looking like with very good gameplay, so I was willing to overlook its dramatic shortcomings. Rebooting this thing from scratch was a good idea. Hopefully they do a better job with the writing and voice acting this time around.
I've waited a while before buying inFamous 1 and I got inFamous 2 for free on PS+. I'll probably buy the new one right off the bat due to the relative lack of new games to play. I haven't bought a title since AC4 back in early December.

If price is an issue, the used PS3 Diablo 3's go for roughly mid 30's on ebay, including shipping

That's what I hear. I picked it up last night. It's a gift for my son so it'll be a bit before I can play it.

i thought infamous was much better than i2. If anything i thought the second one was more repetitive.

Wish I had known you were interested, I just sold mine a little while ago.
I always wondered why we did not have a swap shop for games setup here in the ffa.

It's a pretty fun little time killer. It's like any "freemium" game...you can definitely level your tanks up much faster if you're willing to pay, but I haven't seen that it's necessary to do so. I haven't paid a dime and I don't feel like I'm being outclassed by a bunch of overpowered competition. I will say this though...beware of the tanks with the triangle icons, the tank destroyers...they definitely live up to their name. They are basically the snipers of the tank world and can reach out a long way to kill you.
One other thing that's nice about this game is if you get killed in a match, you can immediately go load one of your other tanks into a new match without forfeiting the points from match you're sitting dead in. They will automatically credit you when the other match ends. You just can't use the dead tank until its match is over.

I've only played random matches. I imagine you can go in with friends, I just haven't had the opportunity to do so so I don't know how to. When my tanks were the basic "beginner" types, I would pretty much only get put into matches with 6-8 per side. Now that I've done a bit of leveling up, I'm always in matches with 15 tanks per side.

the Uncharted series (made by the same developer) is the only must play IMO. Infamous and the GOW series are OK (B- type stuff) if you are into open world games and button mashing, respectively.

OK. Well I have so many games going right now I am loath to add another one. Still I have to admit it does look cool. So maybe I mean it's free after all.

Didn't know this even existed. Looked up a video on youtube.
NSFW. Definitely worth the watch to hear the virgin uberdork's play by play.

So I finally fired up Dark Souls.......Pyromancer master key as my first gift.
Wow.....just wow. WTF took me so long to finally getting around to playing this game. I am hooked. Over the next 6 months......I will no doubt be obsessed with this game.
Then I am going to want to go and play Demons Souls at some point I am sure. And by then Dark Souls II will be in the discount bin. But in any case....the game is great. Brutally hard if you do not plan well. I am exploiring a lot....and just going with it.
Superb game.
9.5/10 and I am only several hours in.

Thanks I got one of them as part of my instant game collection. I guess we will fire it up tonight.

The first one isn't the greatest. The gameplay is kind of clunky. I suggest playing it though. Just put the difficulty to "easy".

One of my proudest moments in gaming was beating Uncharted 1 on crushing mode (easy, normal, hard and crushing is the order). That was really difficult in a couple of areas especially when my skills are so low with shooters.

They go on sale every 3-4 months generally. Though they were recently on sale so it may be a while.Gr00vus said:

Thanks - I guess I'll just wait for Steam to let me know.
Any good tutorial sites you can recommend? I know it wasn't until I found some decent in depth tutorial material (so that I wasn't mainly clueless) that I could really enjoy Europa Universalis and it seems like there's a similar depth to Crusader Kings II.

Please feel free to ask any questions you have and post in the dark souls thread.
It's my favorite game of all time.

Finally think I am getting the hang of Dragon Age: Origins (PC). The skill combinations are so diverse that it takes a lot of experience to know which spells and attacks to use to maximize the combat efficiency of a party. I still have so much to learn but at least it is starting to slow down a bit.
I can see why people do so many playthroughs, it is going to take at least one full playthrough just to get a firm understanding of combat. I am certain that I will want to play again because I know I will be able to do it so much better.

It appears that two people can't access the same library at once, but it should be nice for trying out games or playing during times when your "family member" isn't online. Perhaps we can get some sharing set up here too. I have a few people that I know here that I'll see if they want to set up sharing with first. Then the rest of the spots, I'll open to the highest bidder.

Bah. From reading more into it, it sounds like to authorize a computer, you have to log into it yourself. Which would mean that I would have to give up my username/password to others to log into their computer - and that's not gonna happen.
