Can't decide on what game to play next.

After beating Assassin's Creed 4, I'm not sure what to play next now.Mass Effect 3's been in my backlog for a while,and Wind Waker/Mario U But I did get Shadow of Mordor a bit ago. Recently I got a few other games as well.


Mass Effect 3(PS3)
Shadow of Mordor(PS3)
Area 51 Blacksite(PS3)
Sonic Heroes(GC)
Metroid Prime(GC)

Ones that I'm not really in a rush to complete soon.

Wind Waker(WiiU)
New Super Mario Bros U(WiiU)
Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 1,2,3(GC)
Need For Speed Most Wanted(GC)
Wild Metal(DC)
Blue Stinger(DC)(its shiny and new so maybe I won't play it at all,lol.)
Metroid 1,Metroid 2, Zelda 2,Fire Emblem Sacred Stones(3DS ambassador games)
Crash Bandicoot 2(PS1)
Darklight Conflict(PS1)
Rainbow Six(PS1)
Crash Team Racing(PS1)

Ones I've beaten/close to on another system

Dead Space 2(PS3)
Call of Duty Black Ops(PS3)
Sonic Adventure(DC)

Or dig up my PS2 and plug it in and play some of those games,like...

Sly Cooper 1,2,3(partly complete of all)
Jak and Daxter 1,2,3
Ratchet and Clank
Heavenly Guardian,Innocent Life
GTA III,Vice City,San Andreas(partly complete of all)
Resident Evil 4
Crash Nitro Kart

Maybe I'll put em in a randomizer or something,lol.

Unless there's suggestions on what I should tackle next. Maybe I'll tackle older games in my backlog/etc, rather than the newer games,just cause I'll have em for a while.

I need to beat AC4 myself, I keep telling myself this but I'm still on chapter 9 after all this time, lol, where Kenway just joins the Assassins, but I just haven't go around to finishing the end (and I heard from others that's when it starts to get pretty good).

As for what game to clear out from the backlog next, I would recommend Middle Earth Shadows of Mordor, I personally think it was a pretty good game. If not, definitely Metroid Prime.

Indeed. I had a lot more fun with AC4 than I was expecting,and I really enjoyed Kenway. I also really enjoyed the ending/credits.


Shadow of Mordor might be the one I might do next. Eventually I might plug my PS2 in,now that I have a table thing in front of the tv,though I'm worried it'll be a mess,so I should complete DC/GC stuff before I do that. Though I've been slow starting on games lately though,lol.

Also I've ben rediscovering old flash games I used to play now that I have a new notebook,as well as playing solitaire. Also watching HD/60fps videos on it is really cool. My old netbook couldn't exactly do all this, considering it was 5 years old

Have fun chopping off orc heads. :p

Yeah, perhaps try to clean up the DC/GC stuff before plugging in the PS2 in that case, one of the universal laws is that wires always get tangled up.

Oh you got your new netbook, nice, it must be great not having the browser lag due to an old PC anymore :p

Indeed. I might get to it tomorrow,and play some wiiu or flash games today, sincetv shows are on.

Yes,lol. I know what that's like. That's how my setup always ended up but I'm keeping it orderly now.

Yes,it is nice.

Heh, now I actually got around to finishing AC4, at least I have that out of my mind now. Pretty much means I'm done cause I have no plans of playing Unity/Syndicate/etc (well, actually I still have AC2 to finish also, I guess just I'll just speedrun the main quest, that or maybe finish Skies of Arcadia) :p

When it comes to new stuff, I want the new GTX 1080, lol.

I'm really enjoying the combat and stealth. It's stuff that I wanted in Assassin's Creed. Like the stealth is better than in most games. I love the running while stealthing,and carrying a sword. Most games don't allow me to use that. I'm also enjoying the leadership and intel systems. It's interesting to see the world move on with it's stuff after a while,sometimes with orcs killing each other. As for the combat it's like AC and Arkham fused together. One minor touch that's very nice is the enemies hurting each other. Sometimes it can be annoying to succeed in a QTE and have it act like I failed though.

Overall it's quite an enjoyable experience, the gameplay is fun,but I don't really care about the story. I'd love a modern setting game with this kind of system.

I was the same for me with Assassin's Creed. After playing 3,2,Brotherhood,Revelations,and 4...I don't really have desire to play any of the others. If Unity had been on ps3,I might've played co-op with a friend,but otherwise 4 is a good end.

Yeah, 2014 was one of the slow years for gaming, so overall Shadows of Mordor was pretty enjoyable that year I played it.

That and in the grand scheme of things, Unity, Syndicate, and that other one you play as a Templar are kind of just one big side gig.

Rogue. They all seemed a bit forgettable. I feel it would've been better to have AC3 be a modern game like some have suggested,where you're just Desmond and use your skills you've learned from Ezio/Altair. Then with Eve/etc,have You play as the three Kenways, and the Rogue. Also Unity since those it sorta tied in to the Kenway saga. I liked 4 because he was just a pirate,and didn't really care until he felt like repairing some of the damage.

Shadow of Mordor is going alright, branding captains and riding a graug. I wish there was a way to keep track of how many orcs and orc captains I've killed. The one warchief died of a cough, so I had to fight his successor two or three times,before taking control of his bodyguards and just killing him. I should really do some of the side missions.

I see, thanks.

Yeah after they killed off Desmond the way they did they really just lost direction. At least they said they are taking a break from the AC games this year so they could have 2 years to make the next game as opposed to pumping out another side gig every year. I wonder they'll bring to the table for 2017 or if they end up just messing everything up again.

Indeed, might as well do the side missions :p

Indeed,since I only have a warchief and one main story mission to do apparently.

Yeah, killing off the main character usually dooms you. I'd have been fine if they just did historical setpieces. Like imagine going to different periods of time with no big conspiracy looming over. Also the precursors sucked and weren't helpful at all. And the one was like 'if juno is released it'd be bad",and like 4 games later she starts to do something,lol. Also their solar flare science was really bad in 3. It was simpler when it was just some biblical artifacts and a thousand year old conspiracy. Instead of an 80,000 year shadow war conspiracy with precursor artifacts. :p It got much too complicated as the games continued on.

I'm just waiting for resident evil 7, paper Mario, final fantasy 15, and breath of the wild. And when it does come out the new kingdom hearts. Finally some good titles!
