WWE2K14 I got the Phenom Edition finally last week and it's all I've been playing since Thursday, i started working Friday night i had 4 18 hour shifts coming up(naturally u sleep during the day) i slept a whole of 8 hours the past 4 days.

30 Years of wrestle mania moments reliving all those classic matches and getting so wrapped up in it that i forgot to sleep, i actually didn't even go to the place i sleep over on night shifts i stayed at work just so i could keep playing.Sunday morning at 01:00 i realized i had to give in my new layouts at 6 :p

It's been a while since i was so happy with a WWE game and this one will keep me busy for a while (i even neglected my dota and BF4)
Kicking Hogan's ass with The Ultimate Warrior, Slamming Andre the giant with Hogan, Throwing Mankind of the Hell in a Cell structure.
Ending Rick flair's career it's all there and then of course you can take on the Dead man's legendary streak now who doesn't want to defend or end the streak?

My wife says i talk wwe in my sleep now and even quote some of the lines in the game, i think she;'s dreaming :p

It really takes you back to the good old days when blood was still real in WWE(WWF)

MOUNT AND BLADE

I've spent an unearthly amount of time with this little gem. The base game itself is so satisfying, but once you've played one of the countless mods from their indiedb there is no turning back! My most memorable mods include warring clans in feudal japan, eagle and the radiant cross (american civil war style wars for you formation freaks! basically mount and blade with cannons and guns!) I'm talking battlefields comparable to the likes of braveheart and the mounted charge of you the general alongside your invested-in and elite calvary is absolutely spectacular not to mention the massacres sustained when charging a castle and archers hail arrows upon your troops as you ready the plank! If you have a mild predisposition towards OCD this game will also get you hooked :D I've learnt that first hand! As a general you have to constantly micromanage your troops in terms of equipment, morale, and battlefield tactics and strategies.

There is so much fun in these moments none of these battles are scripted, using a lance is as easy as building up enough speed and aiming the pointy end in the right direction. Galloping around battlefields, smoking enemy troops off their mounts as you plough through their lines like a runaway train is tremendously fun. Rag-doll physics ensure satisfyingly lifelike animations for your victims who either slump over in their saddles with a deep groan of death or fall from their horses with a rewarding crunch. Hit the horse instead and it eats dirt, sending its rider flopping to the ground for your infantry to swarm and dispatch. Once you've mastered the fine art of maneuvering your steed-slowing down for sharper turns and swiveling the camera to line up your targets-combat shifts into top gear. You'll be weaving in and out of the battle like a needle, stitching a pattern of death across the ranks of the enemy. Awesomeness ensues.

One of those hell yeah! moments is when you completely pwn another general's army due to advanced tactics or sheer skill of your troops leaving him and other survivors retreating/running away with their tails between their legs as you charge him with lance in hand upon horseback successfully landing the killing blow and taking him prisoner for future randsom.

Just thinking about this awesome game makes me wanna reinstall it again and install the latest versions of the coolest mods and give it another bash!

NBA2k14

Tied at 90.
With three seconds left, the coach calls a time out.
Thinking to yourself, three seconds... just enough for one last play.
Nothing fancy, just catch the inbound pass, one dribble and shoot.
But doubt begins to creep in, "What if I get double teamed? What if..." All thoughts now cut short by the ref's whistle. It's time for action!

You catch the inbound pass perfectly, but to your horror, two defenders rush to cut you off.
Turning one defender, you are forced to fade back and shoot.
The ball leaves your hands as the clock ticks to zero.
The crowd is dead silent, all movement on the court ceased. Everyone is waiting to see if the ball will hit the bottom of the net...

NBA 2k14 is the only sports game makes the player feel like every second counts. Life-like commentary by real NBA legends add to atmosphere with jokes and stats about real teams. Experience the thrill of hitting that winning basket or gut wrenching loses as your team just didn't get enough on that one block.

There is also a RPG-like career mode where your own NBA player and take on, or play along side, some modern legends including Bryant, Durant and leBron. Tons of stats to upgrade and cosmetic changes to add to your player with the experience gained per game.
 
Next Car Game



Get ready for the most realistic ride (and fun) of your life.

Next Car Game is the future of driving games. Gone are the days of car damage models, where your car only got damaged up to a certain point. This game features real-time car damage that makes you see the damage and feel its effects on your car, physically changing how your car drives.


Ouch.

This game isn't even finished yet, and the demo is already as good as a full game. It lets you drive wreak madness and mayhem in what appears to be the parts for a giant, unfinished pinball game. You can drive around, destroying the walls of crates and pre-fab houses, jump giant ramps, and even drive your car through a crusher. And when you get bored, leave the car behind and shoot objects including missiles and black holes at the destructible items.

This is one of the most fun demos and games around there, I highly recommend everyone download the free demo and then immediately purchase the full game which features the full free roam area, which includes a giant stomping spider. I've spent hours destroying my car in new and imaginative ways, it doesn't get any more fun than this.

I'm not going to clean that up.​
