And why?

I don't mean buying used, trading in, lettin ur homeboys borrow & rent. I mean them games that just change ur whole outlook on gaming and offer a great experience. shyt that you wouldn't mind paying the full price for and keeping in ur library. I'm lookin to update my stash. Don't have a LOT of keepers, but I can say for sure, without a doubt, two of the latest games I bought this summer that were actually well worth my time & dough is

The graphics, 9/10. Crisp edges, detailed, large environments, and lot's of interactive pieces made this game what it is. Respectable AI, shot & bullet animation, shooting 360 degrees from the prone position, and final kill cams all make this game replayable from beginning to end. One of the first games I wanted to try to play all over again, shortly after beating it the first time. The story's above average, and the cutscenes blend seamlessly into the gameplay. shyt puts you right in the middle of a 90's Bruce Willis flick. Online is entertaining as fukk.

This is one of the most fulfilling games I've played since the MGS series. Even though the gunplay animations are a little too cartoonish and the fighting/button mashing gets repetitive, the cinematic nature and action of this game overshadows it enough to make this one thoroughly enjoyable. A mixture of Prince of Persia & Tomb Raider, it's definitely worth checking out (I know I'm late). Definitely looking foward to the sequel and anything else coming from the Naughy Dog developers. (i.e. The Last Of Us) :gladbron:

Yeah Uncharted was incredible, the shipyard level, at the parts where you're scaling the ship and the camera pans out to reveal the entire landscape :ohlawd: And I'm definitely on that Uncharted 4...Rate Sleeping Dogs 1/10, I only played the demo.

Am I the only one that didn't like uncharted. It played like a generic action movie, and I hated the gunplay. It should have had more exploration/puzzles.

as far as games worth the money. The ultimate answer has to be skyrim. There is so much to do in that game it's crazy. You could play for 100 hours and still have a bunch of shyt left to do.

I also liked dark souls, dragons dogma, borderlands 1 and 2, darksiders 1 and 2, red dead redemption, and the assassins creed series.

fukk that. I cant bring myself to spend 60 dollars on storyline games like uncharted. I just rent them and beat it. Only games i spend money on are games that i'm going to be using for online multiplayer.

Arkham games, both great. FIFA series, always worth it every year IMO. Super Mario Galaxy games. Fallout 3, Kingdoms of Amalur, truth is there are so many games worth it to me. I don't consider $60 to be an outrageous sum of money for something you're likely to spend at least 15 hours playing. Think about it, where else can you pay $4 an hour for good entertainment?
