FRIDAY was Shot Down by the Europeans

I think the first time I saw you doing another Tiller game, I thought there was a new game out and went looking as well!
Hey on the plus side it made me know you play, and that tempted me to ask you to PBEM! ;)

Ahhhh....so that's what that "add a game" does on your Steam library? Neat! I might have to do that. The thing is, my non-Steam games are so scattered that I don't even know I own them sometimes. It would be nice to have them all consolidated in my Steam library. I may try that. O0

In all seriousness, that is exactly why I do it. I forget what I own unless I have a nice clear listing like my Steam library.

It's also nice to launch what I've been playing recently by right clicking the Steam icon in the System Tray and getting a list of recent games.

Gonna have to add The Talos Principle to the list. I've heard nothing but amazing things about it and it's currently on sale so....yeah.

Saw it on sale too, came close but didn't pull the trigger.

You won't wanna hear this then: it's very good. I'm struggling to get any time in with Worlds of Magic because I keep being drawn back into The Talos Principle. I can't really talk about it because it's one of those games where you should go in as blind as possible, but what I will say is if you like Portal, you'll like The Talos Principle. It's an exceptionally good game and my only regret is not buying it sooner.

Either I am really olde or Ryse: Son of Rome is totally frenetic and insane. Maybe both. How do people play games this fast paced? Where's my teefs?

Good to know. I bought Portal for my son, and both my kids play the life out of it. Time to check out the Talos principle for them. Thanks Huw. O0

What will you guys do when you run out of videos? ::)

Record your own? My wife is making a documentary about me. Horribly funny so far. No games have been harmed in the recording sessions yet. So I will be trying to play some respectable games this weekend while the cameras roll:

Board games -- respectable by their very nature as map-like objects surrounded by legalistic verbiage AND gambling equipment.
Vassal ---------- as respectable as email
Flight sims ----- I will be wearing headphones and what's more respectable than somebody who can't hear anything you say to them?
Attila ----------- Headphones!!!

What happened? I just played The Last Roman (Attila DLC) as the Normal Franks. The Vandals, Visigoths and Ostrogoths were about to take me apart when the Visigoths started having internal problems. I went after them with everything I had and oddly enough the VAndals and then the Ostrogoths decided to get out of the war either because their ally was falling apart or they wanted to pick up some pieces or the Romans were getting out of hand. I don't really know.

Splendid! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have been! O0

By the way there is a demo available.

I played some World of Warships Friday, rage uninstalled late that night, reinstalled before I hit the rack and then alternated between it and Command for the rest of the weekend.

undercovergeek · July 27, 2015, 02:31:06 PM

had another bash at warships and decided to stop playing like a 15 year old kid and trying to get to the action first, thought about it, plotted course, paired up with another guy and shared his targets - result, survived 2 battles, sunk 4 ships - muchos research purchased

Toonces · July 27, 2015, 03:31:37 PM

I've never heard of a rage uninstall before. That's pretty bad. :o

Huw the Poo · July 27, 2015, 04:34:02 PM

I've rage uninstalled Dota 2 before. Then installed it again about two days later...
