Not really PC games but console section is crap
.
You're right it is crap which is why console posts should remain there.
Dead Space 3.
Definitely not as scary as the first one but it had some great level design, unfortunately i found it way too short.
Co-op was pretty fun.
6.5-10

The Wolf Among Us.
7-8 out of 10.
It would be higher if it weren't for the QTE events being pointless since they don't influence the events in any way. You can sit there and not button mash and the consequences are the same either way. Also, the story messages like "blabla will remember this" rarely if ever have any effect also.
Storyline is a good 9/10 though, loved every minute of it and it actually made me go and read the Fables comics. Great stuff.

Batman Arkham Origins.
+Looks and runs great (Q6600, 4gb, 5850, mechanical hdd.)
+Combat is so much fun. So fast and fluid.
+Boss fights were pretty epic (as they were in the previous games.)
+Voice over actors did fantastic again. Especially Joker.
-Ran into a few bugs - mainly npc's stuck on walls, unable to use ladders etc.
-Too similar to the previous games.
-Average story.
-Story mode perhaps a little short.

That's a really accurate summary.
I just removed this from my PC in frustration. There didn't seem to be a method to continue the main story and I was merely searching for Enigma boxes around the city... turns out I'd completed it!
Unsure if it was a bug but there weren't any credits at all.
Specs Ops The Line
6.5/10
Game mechanics wise it's average game with some remnants of Gears of War but certainly a port console at heart. Story does rescue it somewhat but I think that maybe it's been a little too over hyped so I expected a little too much from it and choices do not make an awful lot of difference to it with little replay value. Bearing in mind that it constantly comes up in sales for a few quid (I paid £3 last week) then it's worth a play through as it can be finished within 8 hours or so.

I really liked Spec Ops - definitely worth it if you get it in a sale
Last game I finished was Last of Us on the PS4. 10/10, Brilliant game.
Sorry if this thread is supposed to be PC games, but not really been playing anything on the PC lately you can 'finish' - mostly DOTA2. Probably need to give Bioshock Infinite a go, or maybe Dishonored next.

I thought Dishonored was a great game. I didn't care much at all for Bioshock.
X-Com Enemy Unknown, it kept me just as riveted as the original back in the nineties. Thoroughly recommended.
Before that was Dishonored, which frankly is a bargain right now and probably in my top ten games ever..this from someone who's been gaming since 1983.

I definitely got end credits - after that it just dropped me back into the world on the top of the bridge you fight Firefly on - I assume to continue with collecting Enigma boxes and the other mini games included.
Wolfenstein: The New Order - 8/10
Played it on the 2nd hardest difficulty which was challenging enough for me. Generally thought it was very good but I preferred Metro: Last Light which was the game I completed before this one. I found the final boss a bit tedious (just hard and not much fun)

I've recently installed X-Com, having never played any of the previous games, I'm a huge fan. I didn't complete it, but I think I was near the last levels.

Metro 2033 - 7/10
A very good game let down by clunky gun-play and some poor design decisions in places. For example, the inclusion of what is essentially an AI escort mission towards the end, along with some other frustrating sections which stink of mediocrity. However, the graphics and atmosphere are up there with the best I've seen and this what really makes the game stand-out. Although I had to play in Direct X 10 mode to get a decent frame-rate (with a 7870).
Story-wise, it was pretty average, but the subterranean world is convincing and draws you in. Not unsurprisingly, I found the above-ground levels to be inferior and less interesting, but they did serve to highlight the claustrophobia of the Metro, along with the prisoner-like existence of its inhabitants.
Overall, it was an enjoyable experience which I feel will be improved substantially with the polish promised by Metro Redux. I will certainly be returning to the Metro.

Its too slow paced for the MP to work. Plus the game is designed so that your natural instinct from the start is to Turtle Up.
Also in the early days, UPLAY was not that stable, when your game DCs 2 hours into an expected 3 hour session its not much fun.
Make sure you spend your "coins" in the store on the extra maps and AIs. This adds more enjoyment to the skirmish mode when you can take on 3 AIs at the same time.
FEAR: Extraction Point
7/10
Not as interesting as the first game, with no real plot, and not as creepy due to what we learn of Alma in the first. A few more cheap scares cropping up, though. Still good, but not as good.
