Street Fighter

I only got round to playing the first one on steam earlier this year and...yeah, based on that I'd say it's worth it. I've read that the gameplay is improved in subsequent games (not that I had any particular problems with it), but that first one is very good at introducing you to a well constructed and pretty huge world. Wasn't 100% on board when I started, by the time I finished it was a challenge to not immediately install the 2nd one! The first one's fairly cheap too, about £8, so you lose little in giving it a go.

While I'm a devotred League of Legends player, my current game of obsession is Ingress...And I'm chomping at the bit waiting for World of Warships to go public!

That's true...bloody hell...

Not what you guys are talking about, but there's a facebook game called Dream Man where you can create your own dream guy, and you can pick to make him fat too. May be the closest I'll ever get.

Having finished Ether One I'm moving on to This War of Mine...so from pretty and bittersweet to decidedly less pretty and bitter-okthisisbleak.

since there's more than one type of gaming, I'll talk about the three I'm currently busy with:

For my computer/video gaming it's pretty much all League of Legends all the time. They're pretty much hit the right balance between difficulty and fun.

For mobile gaming there's Ingress and then there's everything else. I know that on this forum people may poo-poo a game that actively encourages exercise, but the whole 'capture the flag for people who grew up watching the X-Files' theme of the games makes it impossible to resist!

For the tabletop i'm painting up figures for a fantasy game that I'm writing myself, which I describe as 'RPG lite': lots of mayhem and fun, without all the amateur drama exercises that RPGs have become these days.

Far Cry 4, WWE 2K15 & Minecraft (all PS4)

I love me some EVE, but sadly don't have the time to devote to it to be truly badass...

Indeed, especially in a game universe where you can fly spaceships as long as Manhattan Island...
