So I am about to kill gamefly for a while now that I dont have anymore games to rent that I have the time to play or the want to play.

When I went to do it, I noticed my billing month just started so I now have the stick of truth in the mail as suggested here and also I saw it made several top 10 games of 2014 lists.

Looking forward to trying it out and hope it is awesome however I already know it will be based on everything I have heard in the last week.

My only issues will be that my headphones are for xbone so I wont be able to play it when my kids are up :(

I hope they port it to the XBOXONE of PS4. We don't really touch our 360 much anymore.

Ima have to dust off the 360 for this. I do turn it on to download free games so I know it still works :)

Good call. Some scenes would make a sailor blush. Which is why I love it.

I played it for about 5-10 hours maybe. I understand most RPGs are repetitive, but this one was overly so. The story didn't keep me engaged enough to finish it.

Yeah I know better with SP - maybe I can find a way to do headphones with the 360.

All the games I am playing require the kids to be in bed, makes it difficult to get anything done.

Didn't know it was an RPG but as long as its not oblivion sized, that is fine. I will have about 3 weeks to play it before I'll need to mail it back.

Problem is, in 3 weeks of kids are in bed and daddy plays games time, that might be 5-10 hours tops =P

I guess it's time for the kids to start going to bed an hour earlier!

I would still have to wrestle the wife for time on the box too :)

It's all good. I shouldn't game as much as I want to anyway.

You usually get a good feel of an RPG 5-10 in, so seems perfect. It can be purchased for less than $20 if you like it.

I played it for an hour the other night. I got a few chuckles opening doors and digging through drawers but the gameplay itself was unimpressive. We'll see if I get motivated to turn it on again before sending it back.

Hilarious though. Especially when I had to pick my class.

Try to "find Jesus" and head on down to City Wok.

lol

right now I am supposed to find the 3 strongest warriors in the land but when I go to the map I dont see three exclamation points. I went to one of them and couldnt find anyone. I got to tweak and I think right now my mission is to go get meth from Kennys house to take to tweaks parents or something.

I can't remember if you can go to the church and find Jesus yet or not. But don't bag on the gameplay until you've used Jesus. The game does reward your curious nature.

That is right when I stopped. I found him but did not get to use him yet I think.

Exactly. Unfortunately the story isn't engaging enough for me to keep playing.

True. And that is as advertised. No problem, you guys and your fancy Xbones can next gen it while I continue to play the old man games. I still pull out the old Knights of the Old Republic and that isn't even widescreen!

At least it was a gamefly rental. :thumbup:

I'll probably play it a little more, I'm just not a fan of the fighting so every time I get into a fight Its like I take a nap until it ends.
