I got bored of Far Cry 4. Didn't like the story, and the missions got very repetitive. Far Cry Primal looks like the same game with no guns.

Finding an NCAA game under $70 is gonna be hard. There's a few on eBay, but obviously they're all for last gen consoles because of the lawsuits.

When I originally played far cry I thought the same, I thought I'd feel differently this time.
I only play PS3 :(

Lawsuits?

Yeah the players started suing the NCAA and EA Sports for putting their likenesses in games, and profiting from them, when they can't do it themselves.

The way EA were doing it was making generated players with generic names, but Baylor had a black, tall QB, who could scramble and throw (RGIII). They also included a roster download system where it would overwrite the names to be the real ones.

That's why the latest NCAA Football game is NCAA Football 14 on PS3.

As much as not being able to get new NCAA games, i'm actually with the kids on this. Head honchos of the NCAA and the colleges are making millions, while a student-athlete can be suspended (and potentially worse) if they accept a free can of coke. it's a joke of a system.

I agree. The NCAA is dodgy as f**k!

BUT....

NCAA Football was 10x better than Madden....

bought Fallout 3 (never played) and GTA 4 (played a bit a while ago) on the weekend for ps3.

Started FO3, not bad. Haven't got to far into it, but whati have done is good. I am out of the vault and in some town called Megaton (I think it's called that)... Good so far...

I think the Megaton "decision" is the best one in any Fallout game. I played FO3 when it first came out (2008ish I think), and that mission still sticks in my mind.

I smashed Fallout 4 over the weekend. I won't give away any spoilers, but I spent probably an hour prepping my guy for a huge battle before I started a certain mission, got heaps of fusion cores ready, got my Brotherhood of Steel power armour ready, loaded up on ammo, start the mission (shitting myself, adrenaline pumping).....aaaaaannnd....just heaps of talking. I literally didnt fire a shot for about an hour and a half of gameplay. :lol:

Good though. One really tricky decision. I wanted to say "no", but wasn't sure what would happen, so said "let me think about it".....then once out of harms way, backstabbed the f**k out of them 8)

I feel like most of the decisions I make dont really mean anything though - quite often it seems like you can get to the same conclusion, it might just take a few extra lines of dialogue.

Quite often I save the game then just shoot them in the face or slay them with my sword just to see what happens :D

I have Paladin Danse as my companion, and he actually jumps in with dialogue in the conversations which is good.

I'm going the Brotherhood of Steel route. They're my favourites. And having Danse and his big laser gun is handy.

I think the decision I made will have a big effect on the outcome, because it's pretty much deciding which side to be on when shit kicks off.

The Brotherhood of Steel are currently building a war machine, so things might get hectic soon.

I didn't really bother much with the Minutemen. I've left it with "Meet Preston at The Castle".

I did about 6 hours of BoS stuff on Saturday, and then progressed the story yesterday.

Well so far you havent missed anything. Its just clear x from y and save the settlement type missions. I think if you were into building settlements thats the way you should go, but im not that keen on that so ill move onto other things

Yeah, I get one of those days about once a fortnight theses days.

When I was 18, I'd wake up at 2pm, play through til 7-8am and sleep during the day. My brother worked nightshift, so there was usually a servo run for snacks when he got home about 5am too.

Those were the days. (that I slept through)

Project Cars

A few DLC packs came out this week.

The US Car pack introduces Nascars (no oval tracks), Indy Cars, two GT's (Cadillac and Corvette). $5 on PS Store.

The free car is another Aston :roll:

And the 5th Community made liveries pack.

I started the GT3 Championship with the Corvette. Awesome.

Finished the main storyline of Fallout 4 yesterday.

I went the Brotherhood of Steel route, which judging by the Trophys, only 11% did. Very fun ending, with a few late twists. Turned it off straight after finishing the story, but I did get the jist there's more BOS missions afterwards.

Also, I won $120 on a MLB multi on Saturday, so bought The Division this morning and it's downloading as we speak. My best controller and my headset are on charge as well. Gonna be a hectic night.

I am very pleased with my life... However I ain't going to lie, I am a bit envious of your gaming!!!
