Have you played these new high-scoring PC games?

September 27th, 2011

Late summer, early fall isn't known for an abundance of great games. Someone forgot to tell the PC that, however, as it's been inundated lately with a lot of good-to-great games. 

Chief among them is Deus Ex: Human Revolution, which obviously delivered on its pre-release hype and high expectations. A couple of lower-profile games have topped the charts as well. Bastion, a slick and well told action RPG. And Limbo, a black and white puzzler-platformer. 

But as you can see above, that's not all. Ain't it great to see all that green?

I feel embarrassed.... because I haven't played a single one of them.

I'm currently on Deux Ex: Revolution. I just need to dedicate a weekend to it to finish it up.

I haven't played any of these...yet. Hopefully I can get around to playing Deus Ex when I have the time.

Having seen friends play Bastion and Limbo, I must say they are both awesome games.

I've only played Dead Island, and I didn't like it too much...but that may be due to the fact that I was playing the 360 dev version that was released on Steam. I was so angered by that whole fiasco that I haven't given it a second chance yet.

If actions speak louder than words, why is the pen mightier than the sword?

Currently playing and loving Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Thankfully, its a game that my ageing PC is capable of handling without 'too' many issues. Now, when Battlefield 3 comes out, it will be a different story... :(

I do fancy F1 2011 and LIMBO as well, not sure about Dead Island though, opinions seem to be very very mixed. May seek out a demo first (if there is one available).

About as far away from the cutting edge as it is possible to be...

Disappointed by Dead Island's score, had a blast with that one. Also sort of surprised by Deus Ex's score, as I found the game to be extremely short, and gutted in comparison to the original two. Haven't tried the others.

I wouldn't really consider FONV since it's just a DLC but it's a great game. I haven't really played the others unfortunately. It's always great to see good to great games!

New forums... Soon™

I play Dead Island. I have not played Bastion yet and people keep telling me to play it because it is supposed to be really good. I played New Vegas but I have not tried the DLC yet.

I have played almost all of them, not all of them were that good if i have to honest. However bastion is one the best game i have played in a long time! There's a reason why it's number one on that list xD

The soundtrack is amazin.
The storyline is epic.
and the narrawtor... dare I say he has a better voice than totalbiscuit? call it blaphemy but he fucking does!!

For all you guys who haven't played it, go do it now!!!

Best game ever...

If it's playable I'll have it

I've seen ads for Bastion for a while but hadn't taken a look until today. It looks pretty freakin' sweet actually. Might have to pick it up this weekend.
