I got Witcher 1+2, dark souls 1+2, skyrim, farcry 3, bioshock 1+2+3. Kinda thinking I want to play thru the shorter games first. For me I would have to say Bioshock 1, one of the best games ever created, not super long either. Secondly i would go a Witcher title. But it also depends what your in the mood for, something like Skyrim is a 100hr+ game, open world sanboxy style RPG. Or you can jump into Far Cry 3 shoot some stuff, enjoy the graphics and an ok story. You are set up for a hell of a summer! | ||

It's a relatively new release, so I'd say it's unlikely to go for any cheaper. If you like the Diablo-style dungeon crawling games then the Van Helsing games are really great, definitely worth the ~10 USD. | ||

I was in the mood for an RPG, so I bought: -Divine Divinity, -Fable: The Lost Chapters -Sacred Gold -Torchlight II -The Witcher -The Witcher II -Grim Dawn (Early Access) That's a lot of gametime for 20 €... Now you can Go to GoG and buy the D&D pack  You'll get icewind dale, baldur's gate, planescape torment and neverwinter nights. For like 10$.Also don't buy Farcry 3 people. It's evil ! (and bad). | ||

But its very hard to decide between Dark Souls, Witcher and Bioshock. I'd start with Bioshock, play all of them. Great story, great atmosphere and setting (especially Infinite IMO), great voice acting and characters. Then to Witcher, because Witcher 3 is coming next year, which looks absolutely stunning. Dark Souls is gonna be frustrating, i can tell you that, but satisfying when you are done. Btw, Far Cry's "DLC" Blood Dragon is on sale. Fantastic game. + Show Spoiler + | ||

Well... maybe some people find it acceptable (since it have a nice high score but...) - uPlay. - You can't save where you want - When you load a gae you respawn not where you saved but at a fucking checkpoint (that's really nice for an exploration game....) - Interface way worse than Burnout paradise city (i thought no one could make a worse interface for a game). Like it's impossible to navigate the menu. - Story is meh (but GREAT voice acting. really). - Mission zone retarted (you can't take shortcut or you will restart the mission). - Sold for : "Skyrim with guns". Actually => "Clone of Assasin's creed with weapons". - Clunky FPS (how is that possible ?) - Beautifull BUT... textures are bad (well i wouldn't say the game is bad for that but when you got there it heats you up). It's a modern console FPS (with bad porting). Some console FPS do great port like.. Bioshock infinite is good (textures horrible up close too but that's the console way) and it plays smoothly. At least Skyrim can be made beautifull with mods. And UI cand be changed with mods. If i were you, i would go Skyrim last. Since.. if you start with Skyrim, you will be playing it in 2years and won't have done your other game - Bioshock first : Great game. Really, the second is good and the third is okay. But still ok=>good. - Witcher 1 and 2 because there are not really long, it's a nice story. But trust me you are going to yell when you start the second because of all the control changes but you'll get used to it.I have blood dragon (bought the FC pack) but never tried it because of my FC3 experience but i heard it was more of a real fps than the assassin's creed RPG fps crap that FAC3 is. Never played Dark Soul so can't comment on that Let me give you another exemple. My Wife. She is REALLY difficult with games. - Biochock 1 she adored. Biochock 2 she liked a little less. Bioshock 3 was bad but ok for her - Farcry 3 was the worst game after alan wake for her (never tried it myself) - Witcher 1 she like it fantastic. Witcher 2 she liked. Try Dragon Age if you like RPG. It's a good game too. Damn i talk too much | ||

- Witcher + Witcher 2 - Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition - Metro 2033 + Metro Last Light (pick up the new Redux thing if its cheap) - Knights of the Old Republic - Deus Ex: Human Revolution Directors Cut Games like Far Cry 3, Sleeping Dogs and obviously both Dark Souls are also great, but probably not something for everyone. | ||

It's a good game. It have a feeling of S.T.A.L.K.E.R kind of. Buy with caution. I enjoyed it. If it's really cheap why not. Kind of a good thing between horror/suspens/fps. it's a weird game but not a bad one. Deus EX 3 (HR) is a good buy too. And Star Wars KOTOR... Well you should not buy this game because you should HAVE IT ALREADY !!! one of the best star wars game made. | ||
