Got NHL '14 last night. I love it. Haven't played a game in their series since '11.
The subtle improvements that they have made are really good, and the Be a Pro mode is awesome. It's right up there with NBA 2k's career mode which is the best of it's type if you ask me.
I also got Madden 25 which I probably will jump into next week...

Just bought GTAV for the PS3. I rented it right after the release and played it through a weekend. I really liked it. I waited until the price dropped to $40 on Amazon.
I'll still play COD BLOPS2 3-4 times a week. I want to get to the Prestige Master level before I quit (which I think is level 10, I'm almost level 8). I only play online team deathmatch. I spent 10 mins playing the campaign mode. Yuck.
After that, who knows.....maybe I'll wait for EA's World Cup '14 (assuming they'll be doing one). I REALLY liked World Cup 2010.

Crusader Kings 2 on PC. Strategy game that focuses on you character's family line. Different but fun.

I played Crusader Kings 2 for a bit and couldn't get into it. I kept trying to play as Scotland and couldn't figure out how to stop the Norwegians from destroying me. I've been playing Counter-Strike Global Offensive non-stop for a few months now. After years of playing cs-source non stop. For a guy who plays a lot of video games I probably spend under $5 on them a year  I have a friend who plays Rome Total War 3, which looks better than Crusader Kings to me.

I played the demo and liked it, so since my brother is wanting to know something to get me for Christmas, I told him to buy that.
GOG has System Shock 2 for like 5 bucks so I will probably pick that up today.

I play Solitaire, Hearts, Yahtzee, Mine Sweeper, and Free Cell, and a mean game of Bejewled.  Yeah, I've become an old fart. These new games are just too complicated for me.  I would like one of these one day though: http://www.jammaboards.com/store/multigame-mini-cocktail-table-arcade-machine-276in1.html

Should probably stop playing as Scotland then. But seriously you might want to try downloading a usermod called CK2+ really helps the game imo. Personally I always play on a user mod based on Game of Thrones.
Right now, Madden, FIFA, NCAAF, EU4, and DC Universe.

All the Total War games are great. Haven't played the newest Rome version but the previous versions of Rome, Shogun, and Medieval were great.

Battlefield 4 Obliteration mode is quite fun, I wasn't going to get it originally but Origin offered it at 50% off during the Black Friday sale. So I said what the hey and I grabbed it, glad I did.
The game engine is roughly the same as BF3 except I think they made the buildings a little more destructable. But the maps feel better to me, a little less in favor of Snipers and in favor of more cover.
I'm at the point where I wont pay full price for a game anymore, especially with companies like EA who rape us with too much DLC.
But if you can find it on sale at 50% off or better get it, it's well worth it at that price.

I bought a Nintendo 64 years ago.
I broke out the 1st game, and saw an instruction book half an inch thick and decided that I didn;t want to have to study to play a game.
Plus ..... after you read the instructions, you have to go online and find tricks, and cheat codes .....
Man, that's too much work for me.,

Us Playstation people got to play The Last of Us, which is similar to the Xbox exclusive State of Decay from what I hear/read. The Last Of Us was the BEST game I played all year, and right below that was GTA V!

That's because the cave fire burned the paper, and rock scissors just isn't as much fun.

Hmmmm.....no purple font....can't decide if serious or sarcasm..
If Serious, there is a micro USB port on the controller. You should have got a Micro USB to USB cord. There are either 2 - 4 USB ports on the PS3 depending on the model you own. You only need to plug the cord in to charge it. Once charged it works wireless via Bluetooth connection.

What's sad is this ..... There was a time when I laughed at people who got this totally lost look when I rattled off tech jargon ..... and now, tears removed from any real tech work, I look at some of these games ..... using Bluetooth and other stuff that I don't use ...... and I feel like I get the same look on my face now. lol

I love video games, I was raised by the NES, but I don't think I'll ever get into the motion type video games like the Wii or the PS Move or Kinect...
I play hockey to get exercise. I get exercise at work. When I get home and have some extra time, I like to relax and play. I have no idea how any of that stuff works. It seems stupid and gimmicky if you ask me. More of something that might be fun with friends and booze....

Recently finished up GTAV, SMW3D and Knack.
Right now I am playing Madden 25, NBA2K14 & Resogun, all for the PS4. I am obsessed with Resogun what a great game and free for PS+ users.

Well you have to understand that I don't know your level of terminology. My mom calls all video game machines "Nintendos" for example.

Last of Us and State of Decay are completely different. State of Decay is more of an open world sandbox zombie game while Last of Us is a linear storytelling game. State of Decay is fun, but Last of Us blows it out of the water.
What I'm currently playing:
Gran Turismo 6
Forza 4 (always in my game rotation)
F1 2013
GTA V
TOCA Race Driver 3 (PS2)

I'm going legend in the juniors right now, I'm pretty sure I'm getting drafted number one.
Every once in a while I get the urge to pop in Just Cause 2. The game isn't all that great but flying around on that parachute rappel thing is awesome, and their map is impressive.
