• To all AM members and guests.

    For the start of the new season, Arsenal Mania has relaunched the news side of the site. All articles are written by genuine Arsenal fans with no hidden agenda. You can visit the site via the menu at the top of the forum pages or go direct to our homepage

    Additionally, Arsenal Mania is now sending all its registered members a bi-weekly Briefing Bulletin containing a digest of news and views from both parts of the site. Some of you may have already received the first edition and those that haven't should do so before the big kick off against United. If you are a guest visitor to this forum then if you join as a member, you will automatically receive the Bulletin.

    Please support both these initiatives and help ensure the long term future of our site.

Don't really play much videogames anymore. Just don't have attention span and time for it. Last game I really enjoyed and completed was Spiderman, that must be what 5 years ago now? I tried Red Dead Redemption but I just felt there was too much to do and I heard it took a while to complete so I lost interested.

Favourite game of all time is easily Assassins Creed II, I'd tie in Brotherhood too as I almost see them as the one game with Brotherhood being an add-on. Absolutely amazing games and story with great characters specifically Ezio.

With FIFA I bought them all up to FIFA 20 where I just essentially quit the game. I quit playing online I think it was 18 outwith pros the odd time with friends, just not worth the time you'd have to spend trying to get good or building up a good ultimate team.

It's probably a me issue but games just don't feel as fun or as engrossing as they used to be.

Same, enjoyed RDR1, but never got into the second part. It's like many games today, just a map with a thousand things to do. What's the fun in having to do a giant chore list.

Last game I played was Metro Exodus, which was really excellent.

This is why I love Sleeping Dogs & Yakuza series, small maps, actual minigames instead of random trinkets, and fun
I tried RDR2 got to first town and I haven't been playing again, maybe someday cause it seems like a huge time sink (just for the record, I play Pathfinder WoTR which a huge time sink and I haven't stopped)

I’ve missed so many great games over the years because it’s just too time-consuming.

1. Halo: CE (split-screen and LAN)
2. Halo 2 (LAN and Xbox Live)
3. Mass Effect (when that end credits song played)
4. Tekken 3 (pure sibling rage and smashed controllers)
5. Super Mario Bros 3 (endless replays on SNES and GBA)

Honorable mentions: Pokemon games and Yugioh on GBA.

Did you miss the final Revelations AC game? Worth checking out if not. Also all of the Ezio games play ultrawide on the PC unlike the original AC 3 and AC 4 games

1. Skyrim, just something about the atmosphere of the game, great music, art direction, I just loved it and replayed it many times. Oblivion was memorable as well when i was younger, played it a lot less though.
2. Zelda games for N64, loved both those as a kid(Majora's mask/Ocarina of time
3. Mass effect 2, just the best sci-fi game I've played. Liked the whole series though
4. Modern Warfare 2 (2009), my favorite pvp game
5. Pokemon blue. Allthough apparently the pikachu edition was the op edition

1. BioShock Infinite
2. Red Dead Redemption 2
3. God of War: Ragnarok
4. Metal Gear Solid 5: Phantom Pain
5. Rainbow Six Vegas

Still got both of these but haven’t really had that much time to finish either of them.

Played both quite a bit during the lockdown period but that was a while back. Will get around to finishing both at some point.

This is going to show me up a bit. In February 1997, I bought a Playstation from Our Price in Gloucester. I believe they had not been out for very long. I think they were Sold Out in quite a few places.
I had Crash Bandicoot, which I enjoyed.

I got a few games for the PlayStation. Resident Evil was good, I got the France 98 World Cup game. It had commentary from John Motson on it. If you missed a goalscoring opportunity, he would say, "he couldn't hit a cow's backside with a banjo". That was quite funny.
Did have a SEGA Mega Drive before the PlayStation. Had a game on that called Speedball 2, that was good.

Playstation came out in 1995 mate. I did enjoy Crash. At the time I thought Ridge Racer was photo realistic, kids today won't get how big a deal that game was at the time

Your list is so similar to mine. I have recently got in to CS2. I cannot believe the items market thats going on there. I knew nothing of it, played well for a few days and got a crate reward. Spent £1.99 on a key from steam to open it. Got these "Hydra Gloves". I saw a youtube video saying these items have some value, so i placed them on the market place.

Seconds after i listed them, someone bought immediately for £156. The world is so strange. Now I have it to spend on steam games, and it felt like i'd been involved in NFTs or something.

Judging by your list, and the fact that you love Path of Exile, you absolutely have to try Baldurs Gate 3. That game made me feel like I did when I was 15.
