I'm primarily a gamer, so no. I only buy games when I believe they will be much fun or interesting to play.
Only exception: The Fallout Anthology for PC. Played FO3 and FONV on PC before I bought the Anthology. Probably will never use one of the Discs, but they came in a f*ckin' Mini-Nuke!

Releasing a half-finished game, patching it over the next six weeks until it finally works and selling the other half of the game through chargeable DLCs.

Oh, and those copy-protections where you have to enter word 7 of line 12 of page 6 of the manual.

Classic Video Games / Re: What games do you remember playing at sleepovers?

- Telltale Games (PS4) like Walking Dead
- Counter Strike (PC, LAN)
- Worms (PC)
- Sam & Max Hit the Road (DOS)
- Day of the Tentacle (DOS)
- Zak MacKracken and the Alien Mindbenders (C64)
- Maniac Masion (C64)

There are more, but these are the games I remember. Specially "Day of the Tentacle" - I was home alone with my sister and our parents thought we were sleeping, instead we sat in front of my 486 and had a really great time with Laverne, Hoagie, Bernard and the frozen hamster.

« on: October 03, 2017, 09:37:28 pm »

I would keep only a few, which would be the games I could play over and over again and/or with others (all PS3/PS4):

- Fallout 3
- Fallout New Vegas
- Fallout 4
- Saints Row VI: Re-Elected
- The Witcher III
- Skyrim
- Mass Effect Andromeda
- Worms (doesn't matter which of them, as long as it's 2D)
- Tekken Tag Tournament 2
- Injustice 2
- UFC2
- WWE 2k17
- Child of Light
- Hitman: Season 1
- Dirt Rally
- Trials Fusion / of the Blood Dragon
- Need for Speed (I think "Hot Pursuit 2" was most fun)

And for PC:
- Day of the Tentacle
- Sam & Max Hit The Road
- Sam & Max (The Series)
- You don't know Jack 1+2 (german version, US would be 2+3)
+ Skyrim, Fallout 3+NV -> for Modding.

Limbo was nice. But I think the ending was a little curious, could have been better. After I finished it, I bought the second game from Playdead, "Inside". And what should I say... I liked it more. And also the ending was curious.
