Yeah FH2 is insane. It says I'm 6.3% done. I know that is probably all the bonus stuff and what not, but still... I need to find time to get some of these games finished off before November.

This. I'm saving all that I can haha. There's quite a few games that I'm stoked on. Honestly, I'm expecting to see Ryse or DR3 on the Games For Gold list either this Holiday or early next year. A holiday sale would be crazy

I can't wait for Ryse to go GWG. I still regret not getting it digitally.

I think i'm going to focus on Halo: MCC and GTA V. If that means Sunset Overdrive gets put on hold oh well. I just started FH2. So many games.
 
I will always have time for the first 4 or so missions of the newest Assassin's Creed game.

Then I usually drop it for some obscure reason.
 
Only have 4 achievements left for Destiny.

Flawless Raider
Raiding Party
Warlock Mastery
Titan Mastery

Can't wait until I get them so I don't have to play as much.
 
I envy you console owners. Only having to worry about time to play Halo and Sunset Overdrive. PC gamers have to worry about Civ:Beyond Earth consuming their life.

Question about Halo MCC

I just watched the Sanctuary remastered footage again and oh my....it looks so damn good. Just to be clear. The campaign is fully remastered like this too of Halo 2, right? But what about Halo 1 and Halo 3? And will we be able to play all the online maps of all games with those great graphics too or are only the H2 maps remastered?

I'm not positive but i think Halo: CE is just the Anniversary version from the 360 and Halo 3 is 1080p/60fps. Halo 2 is getting the full treatment with a remastered campaign and multiplayer maps.

Yeah i think that's going to be it then. Although just now someone told me it won't even be all Halo 2 maps, just six. That would be a bummer, but what can you do.
 
Since most of the screen is covered with tiles I would like to see someone come up with a background that takes into account the tile placement and do a background that takes into account the open space on the screen.
