Really haven't played any Tomb Raider game prior to this. And I was picking between this or Hitman: Absolution.

The chick wins, I guess. :cheeky:

Haven't played a Tom Raider game in ages either, but this looks like it'd be fun.
I finally finished Borderlands 2 and The Walking Dead, trying to finish my second playthrough of Skyrim with the DLCs, and started Dishonored. Still can't play fucking Max Payne 3 off Steam since it never launched again after I switched to Windows 8, and I have Far Cry 3 and Sleeping Dogs left to play after that...

I've been thinking about Metal Gear Solid re-vengeance, is it any good? I have only played MGS2 on ps2 for this series, but since I had really thought about playing another one. :D

Revengeance has a lot more focused on action rather than stealth.

His post was not a reply to you. He was just saying that in a couple of years 3D Sex Villa will be amazing.

Still trying to catch up to games that have already been released a while ago. I just finished Max Payne 3 and Dishonored, and I just started Far Cry 3, which looks promising. After that, I still have Sleeping Dogs and Assassin's Creed III left to play.

Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Man the game has this dark feel in it that sets it apart from other Zelda titles.

I haven't played Twilight Princess, but Ocarina of Time had some pretty dark moments. Majora's Mask certainly did as well.

Most certainly. Albeit Twilight Princess has some creepy characters ILIA, and a pretty dark style of art in it.

Speaking of Majora's Mask, that reminds me of this CreepyPasta.

Having fun with Far Cry 3 on PC right now, at least when it works. As usual, Ubisoft gave us a highly glitchy game, especially for Nvidia users... :evil:

Played a little Injustice: Gods Among Us at a friend's place last night. Being an MK fan, I found it pretty fun and easy to pick up.
