This thread needed a revival, so I went and dug it up
So who's playing what games at the moment?
I've been playing Just Cause 2 quite a bit lately. Love the game. It's quite a lot like the GTA series in a way. BUT the best part about the game is the size of the map. It's freaking massive, like 42 square kilometres or something. Forgot about Skyrim where it takes you like 1 hr to walk across the map. This game takes you 1hr to DRIVE across!!! Or about 10 minutes in a Boeing 747 plane (which you just stole). The free roaming aspect is brilliant just for the scale of it, plus you can parachute and base jump from anything. There are also sometimes rather interesting missions you have to complete.
One of the coolest things I found in it is this - it has the WHOLE island from the TV show Lost in it - The developers put it in there as some kind of a joke or something.. Your plane even mysteriously crashes if you try to fly over the island lol. I'm not kidding, Google it!
Also on JD's advice (from ages ago) I finally got myself a copy of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Not bad I must say. Been playing it here and there in between Just Cause and enjoying it.
Lastly - Mass Effect 3 is almost due to come out, can not wait for it.
Edit: Here it is, I just saved you googling it: http://www.gamesradar.com/lost-island-hidden-in-just-cause-2-10/
