TES: Let's kill High Elves, I hope.

I think we are due a Fallout game first.

Yip

We are due for it, but we won't get it for a while.  Bethsoft put their eggs in the MMO basket instead.   I just want to play a game where I can explore to my hearts content, kill monsters and get treasure.

Technically ESO was not developed by Bethesda, it was developed by Zenimax Online, a completely separate company under the Zenimax umbrella.

I have a had time believing that there was no Beth involvement in ESO, but that is the Zenimax company line.

Well, that is correct as far as the development team personnel at Bethesda Game Studios are concerned, but I'm not sure that management time and development money didn't get sucked out of Bethesda to pay for ESO.

We are due for a BGS game in the next year, though, and I don't doubt that we will get one.

I love these guys;  now on a weekly basis, their pace is getting better, their Eengrish is not.

Odd, Plague Inc appears to have teamed up with Fox to add a bit as a promo for Planet of the Apes.

That explains why I got an email for a new LotRO expansion.

Makes sense. The end credit sequence of the first movie reminded me of the original flash game, with the disease spreading.

Hah! I had the exact same thought when watching the film. Guess a lot of people that played that made the connection.

Working through "A Quest for Heaven esp1" in FO3. Excellent so far. [spoiler]Just started SA-23 currently. So far Nexus 5 had me on edge most.  Got to love a well made game environment that can do that.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Because I was Lvl 8, I had to infiltrate past the Super Mutant area to get to tracking command. I wouldnt survive in a stand-up fight against them. It took little over an hour actual time with Recon Armor/ Fire Ant Necture / Terrian while doing it at night. Sometimes just inching forward. It was fucking awesome. My daughter was looking on saying, "Are you going to do anything"  "Your barely moving"[/spoiler]

I beat Sniper elite 2.  It was fairly mediocre but it was free.  I always have a hard time getting my bearings in third person games.

I got the final guy with my first shot. On Hard.

Got OOTP from the bundle, and started a game despite knowing fuck all about baseball. Took over the Orioles (spent some time in Baltimore back in the day) and lost my first game against Tampa with a  4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 card.

Glad you enjoying it.  There is a spot or two in each episode where the combat gets kinda ridiculous, but the story is always gripping.

Ep 1 is the most puzzle-heavy, in terms of figuring out which switch does what.  I am not sure whether the gradual move to more "figure out the story" rather than "find the switch" came about because of the unfortunate demise of the woman who started the series, or whether that was planned, but you will enjoy the change. Keep us posted.

Anyone tried "The Forest"?
It's one of those survival games, and really just in alpha. I quite enjoyed the first try.
