Games you've played this year that you found FUN!!

Pillars of Eternity - for oldschool RPG fanboy it's the best game I've played in years :>

Within roughly the past 2 months, can't remember beyond that:

1. The Weaponographist because i loved TBOI, and this game is practically a more aggressive version of that game with awesome weapon disintegrating and level decreasing mechanics...plus i speedrun it and am near the top of the leaderboards :)
2. Minimum picked that during the summer sale, its a very fun TPS, i should get back to playing it...i like the game modes
3. Gauntlet was a nice dungeon crawler, hard-ish on single-player though, i've played with online friends and really enjoyed it
4. Torchlight II the poor man's diablo (honorary mention: The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing)
5. 20XX megaman roguelike platformer, still in early access but quite fun, even better with multiplayer :)

sup with all the potatoes? is this 9gag?

the neptunia games and also Valykria Chronicles (although that is too difficult for me lol)

I just beat The Darkness II a few days ago. I loved the first game, and while the second one is more of a linear FPS than the first one was, it was still pretty great. The story is really interesting, and using the demon powers is a blast, if rather gory.

But I get what you're saying. Sometimes I just want to play something that's just fun. There are lots of games that are great, but not necessarily a joy to play. Most of the games that give me joy are all only on consoles, though. Things like the Katamari games, de blob 2, Super Mario Galaxy, etc. LIMBO was a joy to play, and that's on PC. Just Cause 2 is my go-to palette cleanser after a serious game. Its so stupid and over-the-top that it makes for a quick change of pace.

The game that makes me fuzzy now is Binary Domain. I configured the voice recognition to recognize more or less my imperfect and slightly broken English and I'm totaly blown away by the amount of fun this game gives me. And the story is surprisingly deep if you gather bits and pieces. Oh and voice commands are fun as hell :D

The Talos Principle This one was actually so good that I now consider it to be one of the best games that I've ever played.

The Witcher 3 Open world 3rd person ARPG done very very right. Sure, it had a couple of flaws, but on the whole, this game is bound to become one of those that people talk about for years and years to come.

Homeworld Remastered HD-update done very very right. It takes the original Homeworld, fixes most of the issues that were there, and gives it a fresh coat of pretty paint.

Europa Universalis 4 Still playing this one, and I got it not too far from launch. Might tell you something about what I think of it (hint: I think it's great).

Tales of Maj'eyal Another game that I've had for quite a wile, and played a lot of. My favourite rogue like to date.

Pixel Piracy (to me a true gem)
GRID
FIFA 12
FTL
The best thing is that all of them cost next to nothing

The first ones that come to my mind are the banner saga and battleblock theater, I personelly enjoyed both of them.
Might drop other titles when I fully wake up

Ori and the Blind Forest, Witcher 3.

This year, so far I've had the most fun with Shadow of Mordor.

I quite enjoyed RAGE, and currently am dipping myself in Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag, which is surprisingly fun =)

I say Van Helsing Series. (1-3) The third one is a little rushed, but they will release final cut in september which will contain all the 3 games with all the dlc and high end game content.

well since I test most of new games, I found really cool Anna's Quest if you are in point&click.
second game I gladly recommend is Kings Quest, its out on july 28
If you like casual relaxing games, best I can say is Color Assembler

Finished South Park: The Stick of Truth yesterday and it was awesome. It had everything: compelling story, intense action, interesting characters, loads of customization, aliens, gnomes, nazi zombies, conspiracy theories and so on.

DEAD SPACE 2, it is amazing

Of the games that I finished recently that I can recommend...

Higurashi: When they cry - was looking forward to playing this, great story if you are into VN and story based games. I instantly watched the anime as well. I've fallen slightly in love with it. Although I know VN are not to everyones taste.

Valkyria Chronicles - marvelous game. Xcom meets FPS meets anime. I played it through without a break, I'm thinking about a second playthrough already. If you own this game, play it now.

Saints Row 4 - do you want to have superpowers in a free roam city? Do you like laughing and ridiculous set ups. Play this game, lfor the more action orientated player rather than the first two suggestions.

My favorite games in 2015 so far (in no particular order):

1. Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number
2. Life is Strange
3. 199X
4. Remember Me
5. Fallout: New Vegas
   6.The Talos Principle
6. Gone Home
7. Dishonored
8. Town of Salem
9. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

Lords Of The Fallen
Call of Juarez Gunslinger

Garry's mod, cuz there are so many servers with mods to play on like zombie survival, prophunt, sims and even Dayz

Hand of Fate, D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die, Kholat, Wolfenstein: The old blood, Hotline Miami 2.

Transistor, thats one that i got recommended and its awesome

XCom Enemy Unknown.
Death Rule: Lost Code.
Civilization: Beyond Earth.
Neverwinter Nights 2.
Talisman: Digital Edition.
SoTS: The Pit.
Galactic Civilizations 2.
Wizardry 1&2&3. (GameBoy)
Wizardy Gaiden 1&2&3. (GameBoy)
Pokémon Conquest. (NDS)

Is what i can remember atm, but none of the games are from this year, lol.

Rayman Origins. Blowing me away right now. I like very few platformers outside of the original Sonics and Mario- most feel clunky, slow, and heavy, but Rayman is the smoothest thing ever. Even the underwater levels are fun.
