What are you all playing?

I've been playing a lot of Nintendo 3DS titles recently; Pokemon Omega Ruby, Smash 4, Animal Crossing and Tomodachi Life. I'm really enjoying Tomodachi Life A LOT! For those not familiar, it's not a game as such, but it's crazy. You take control of an island and steer the lives of Mii characters. They have voices and all sorts and do some truly random stuff.

Metro Last Light is great for the art direction alone.

Adding newly purchased Transformers for PS2 to the playlist.

I've wanted this game for years but it's always managed to slip through my fingers, literally every time a copy has surfaced someone else has beaten me to it. But not this time! I saw it, I ordered it, I got it, ARC wins! It's a really great game and I'm glad to finally be playing it. I was never a big fan of Armada but this game doesn't feel too ruined by it, it's still got plenty of Transformers goodness in it, and while I'm not a fan of the whole mini-con business in the cartoon at all at least they fit well in a game as customizable powers and abilities, it makes them a lot more tolerable than they ever were in the cartoon.

The last week I've been doing nothing but playing retro FPS re-launch/re-imagening/remake extravaganza; it's being nothing but hunting ammo, healthpacks, enemies and -sighs- keys for me. I completed Serious Sam 3:BFE, Shadow Warrior and Rise of the Triad and I would recomend them in that order.

Overall each one has its strong points, Serious Sam is the most polished of the three being able to run on my low-end GPU at a steady 90 FPS with up to a hundred or so enemies on the screen at once and is the one I overall had the most fun with in general (It was insanely hard in normal difficulty though, I can't even imagine how hard it must be on the harder difficulty. For the record only 6.4% of people that play it actually complete the damn thing). I had problems running Shadow Warrior, however if any of you have a high-end gaming PC I can't recommend it enough, it's pretty much the game Red Steel wanted to be; a fast paced sword combat/First person shooter with extreme amounts of old Japanese action movies cheese thrown into it (And it probably has the best humor of the three, for what is worth the game is pretty well written and there's great chemestry between the main characters not to mention it's the only one of the three that actually had me laughing at times). And finally Rise of the Triad has the best bosses of the three, however the main issue I have with it are the technical difficulties I had with it, someone may blame my crap GPU but EVERYONE has their own horror stories related to the performance of the game; the worst one I had was probably this one level that I had to make a perfect run of (No deaths, no saves, no lollygaging) because otherwise a key needed to progress wouldn't spawn and I would be trapped in limbo forever.

However I still liked all three, not all three were the same cookie-cutter FPS experience that the rest of modern game offer and each one had something going for it. That said do keep in mind that you'll run into issues if you decide to pick up Rise of the Triad... and be sure to pick Lorelei, otherwise the later levels involving heavy platforming will be impossible.

@armored Core Raven The Gamecube one, called Smuggler's Run Warzones, is essentially a port of Smuggler's Run 2.

I've been playing Alien Isolation over the past few days. That game is unholy (in a good way)
