    Only got Rise of the Tomb Raider, I really liked the 2013 game and this one is better in every way. I scoffed at the $70 price tag it had on launch but it's actually a really polished and well made game imo. Got 10 hours in it already.

    Total War Atilla :)

    Big improvement over Rome2, but there's some nagging things in the game as far as campaign movement

    Have you tried Transistor yet and if so what did you think? I'm considering picking it up.

    Wolfenstein FTW - not the very best tier, but enough to get you ignited to REALLY hate the Nazis.

    Undertale, if your eyes can tolerate 8-bit era graphics. One of the best story video games, period. Has a surprisingly decent soundtrack that I also purchased in hi-rez FLAC and am listening to now.

    I hadn't yet, been busy playing batman. But alas I sat down tonight to give it a quick go so I could at least give you something, but then like 3 hours later it was past my bedtime and I was engrossed. So if that tells you anything...

    I will say though I kind of wish I'd gotten it on iOS instead, it's not graphically intense at all, and I think it would have been perfect to play on the bus on the way to school.

    The mixing and matching of the combat is super neat though, even if it took me an hour or so to figure out how it all worked. The voice acting and the soundtrack really seal the deal though.

    Amazing game to be honest! Made by the same people who made Bastion which had an amazing soundtrack as well. 8.7/10 would recommend.
