Yeah, I strongly prefer a controller for third person games, and mouse and keyboard for first person.
Yeah got a 1TB drive.
Witcher does look pretty good and plays much better once I installed my ps4 controller on d PC.
Not gonna install any mo games until fallout 4 imo

After playing TWC3 for a few days, I have to say it's not that hard. It was pretty hard really early on, but I like to do every side quest in these kind of games, which usually ensures my character is pretty strong once I get to story quests. So TWC2 is a pretty great game? How about the original?
Haven't played W1 yet
I played witcher 1 and it was amazing. One of the best fighting systems at its time. And one of the best stories ever. I didnt like witcher 2 tbh. Didn't like the story and the gameplay was mediocre.
I'm 5 hours into w3 and its already better than w2. Reminds me of red dead redemption tbh are the developers related??
I chose the next to highest difficulty and I'm getting my ass beat have no food and 2 ing gold coins
I did get an ability that regenerates my vitality at least
Seriously how do you get ing $ in this game? Even quest rewards are like 20 gold coins only. Wtf
Hey bum, drj what about space Sims? Any good ones. I still have visions of playing Wing Commander. The best space sim ever.
Looks like Elite dangerous is a good one and star citizen soon to come out has potential.
Holy . Chris Roberts the same guy that did wing commander is doing star citizen!?!?!?
damn this guy came back from the dead!
In 2011, Chris Roberts founded Cloud Imperium Games Corporation, together with his business partner and long-time international media attorney Ortwin Freyermuth, to work on a new game. On October 10, 2012, Cloud Imperium Games launched a crowdfunding campaign from the Roberts Space Industries website with the stated goal of raising between two and four million dollars to produce a space sim game for the personal computer in a sandbox vein. It was being built on the Cryengine 3 game engine. The game promised to integrate a traditional "branching storyline" game to be called Squadron 42 with a persistent online universe game to be called Star Citizen. On October 18, 2012, at the request of fans, a Kickstarter campaign was launched to run in conjunction with the Roberts Space Industries website. By November 19, 2012 when the combined campaigns concluded, they had earned $6,238,563, approximately 4.1 million from the RSI campaign, and approximately 2.1 from the Kickstarter campaign. This surpassed all stretch goals set for the campaign, and broke video game industry crowdfunding records, both in funds received and in number of backers.[1] Chris Roberts had stated that if at least $23 million could be raised over the course of the crowdfunding campaign, no outside investors' or developers' funding would be required. This goal was reached October 18, 2013.[2] As of July 10th, 2015, they have raised just under $85 million.[3]
In 2013 Chris Roberts announced Star Citizen would be created in modules to be released when playable. The first, the Hangar Module, was released on August 29th 2013, [4] and allowed the player to interact with certain ships planned for the game. The Dog-Fighting Module was released on June 3rd, 2014[5] under the name Arena Commander and allowed playing and testing of the game's dog-fighting system.
LOL, I was about to recommend Star Citizen. Ask Cry Havoc, he's as big an SC fanboy as you were for Belinelli.
I didn't know Chris Roberts making it. He made Ultima and Wing Commander. 2 of my favorite series ever
I want to see this with the Occulus Rift. Supposedly GTX 970 and i5 are the minimum requirements for the Rift, and I have to imagine the first person pit view would be awesome. I hope that is really only $200.
You'll probably need to run games at high or medium though on a 970 to get the 90 fps recommended for the 2160x1200 resolution (25% higher than 1080p).
hater - Here's what I recommend, no particular genre
Payday2 - probably the most supported game I've ever seen.. constant content updates, some free some paid.. lot's of fun to squad up and try to stealth the missions. Nothing better than showing up to a Bank, casing the joint, surgical precision killing all guards and threats simultaneously, then holding out while your vault specialist gets you in to clear the out and leave..
Arma 3 - game drives me nuts when the frame rate dips below 40, but great military sim. Great graphics, and a TON of mods available at Armaholic.. basically any uniform, gun, vehicle, you name it is available for you to mod in.. not to mention custom missions from the ridiculously good editor to keep you going.. the game literally will never get old.
Cities Skylines - What the latest Sim City should have been.. lot's of time wasted trying to get the balance of the city right with so much that could go wrong.. good game to smoke and listen to music to
Battlefield 4 - that Hardline , BF4 is still where it's at
Wargame: Airland Battle - pretty sick RTS from the Cold War era.. great graphics when you zoom in.. nice details
Splinter Cell Blacklist - Love me some stealth games, and this one gets it right.. great graphics, nicely optimized (runs at 144hz on my pretty easily) and near endless ways to approach the missions.
GTA V - Not much that hasn't been said before.. great port
Dying Light - Best zombie game out IMO.. good times to be had w/ 4 player Co-op story mode.. the online vs mode is pretty sick and it's blended perfectly into the single player mode
Check this video man. Damn, even the GTX 750 Ti can get butter smooth framerates with heavily modded Skyrim
Witcher 3 is definitely the best game of 2015, even above Dying Light. It had a rocky start with the downgraded graphics and all the crashes, but it's pretty ing amazing. I still don't know if I could say it was better than Skyrim in 2011 though, that and Oblivion are still my gold standards for RPGs.I played witcher 1 and it was amazing. One of the best fighting systems at its time. And one of the best stories ever. I didnt like witcher 2 tbh. Didn't like the story and the gameplay was mediocre.

Steal from villagers and sell . This kind of game you always have to snoop everything for things to take and resell. And searching for positions of power or whatever they're called is a must. An easy way to make money is to raid bandit camps and then sell all their after you kill them.
Yeah thanks. Now I have about 1000 gold coins but problem now is I can't find merchants with dough to buy .
I always just have s fix my armor and weapons to 100% and I buy anything I see better than what I have, then get my money back by dumping all my crap on them.
Haha that's what I'm doing too plus crafting
Yeah, you gotta craft to get the good .
I'll echo some of DJR's recommendations:
Payday2 - Eh. I like this game but it's somewhat repe ive to me. Still a good stealth element shooter though, with a cool leveling system.
Skylines - Amazing. Best city builder of all time. Tons of support and MODS for this game. So good.
BF4 - Need to play it on my new rig but it's just a solid shooter IMO. I don't like some of the mechanics that feel like they have latency in the game.
GTA V - Multiplayer is glitchy as but this game is so good it doesn't matter.
Dying Light - Maybe my GOTY 2014. So incredible. Unfortunately it doesn't have the most replay value IMO. They're still updating it though. Visually one of the most impressive games I've ever seen.
Now for my own:
Metro 2033 Redux - Coming from someone who's shot more firearms than I can count, this game absolutely NAILS the frenetic, violent pacing of gun combat. It's excellent and insanely tense.
Mount and Blade Warband - Terrible graphics but the gameplay and open world RPG sandbox is nearly unrivaled. You can pour hours into this, but it's a hard game to get the hang of. For $5 it's a ing steal.
Borderlands 2: Over the top hilarious. One of my favorite games of the past decade.
Shadow of Mordor: Combine some of the best elements from the Batman games with some from the Assassin's Creed games and steep it in LotR. Phenomenal. Yahtzee's GOTY last year.
Rocket League: So I just got this game yesterday, but I can already recommend it completely. Phenomenally fun and a steal at $20.
Dying Light came out in 2015 bro. 2014 was kind of a weak year for gaming. Far Cry 4 was fun, but it wasn't the kind of crack where you couldn't put the game down like Dying Light, GTA V, and Witcher 3 have been for 2015. Plus 2014 had lots of complete with AC Unity and Watch Dogs. If I had to pick a favorite 2014 game then it's Dragon Age Inquisition, I think that's the only 2014 game that I thought really stood out above the others. I couldn't get into Shadow of Mordor at all though, that bored the out of me. 2015 is already so much better than 2014, and 2013 was way better too with Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider, and Metro Last Light. Speaking of Tomb Raider, supposedly the Windows port comes out in January, I can't ing wait for that . Though I doubt I'll be maxing it out with a 970 by then considering how GPU intensive the 2013 version is.
Speaking of DAI, you should get that CH. The R9 290x with Mantle on performs like a ing madman in that game and it's really impressive graphically. Great storyline and combat too, but be a female so you can most of the es tbh. Everyone but Cassandra is a in that game.
The tessellation effects like the way light shines off armor looks great.
Whoops, my bad. Well, it's in the running for 2015 in my book, then.
