Back in the day, Risk was a good board game. Not a lot on history, but strategic and fun.

I learned that Hitler had a mech-suit that holds 4 miniguns.

How we survived that war I will never know.

Fun, yes. Strategic? Not all that much.

Is it worth it? I enjoyed the first one alot but heard the second wasn't as good.

Yes. The single player story is amazing. Ton of small details in the world also. I loved the first one, and this is one of the best sequels (or prequel I guess) I’ve ever played. If you liked the first I think you’ll enjoy it

Not sure where you heard that, but it was a great game. IMO it was better than the first.

Oh yeah. I guess it depends what you want from it, but to me, it was one of the best games ever of that genre. The story was excellent. Game play a little clunky until you get used to it. I kept falling off my horse at first. But that's probably just me, oldness, and phat thumbs. Lots of hours spent on that game which is how I typically rank games I've played. Well. Scratch that. I spent way more hours playing Destiny.

I think my bar for getting the game was too high when it first came out, I needed to justify both buying the game and an xbox to play it on ha

Dumb exclusivity ****.

November 5th through the Rockstar Games Launcher and Epic Games Store, and in December on Steam.

 

[KLB]

None of that bothers me anymore. I never buy any game when it launches. I generally just wait until Gamefly gets around to sending it to me.

X-box? Why a ****ty x-box? But point taken. Now that it's coming out on PC, there's really no excuse. I haven't heard what the price is, but it shouldn't be what a new game would be, since it's now an old game having been out on consoles long ago.

It'll be $60. GTA V launched on Steam at $60, too.

That's crazy. At this point, if I were still waiting to play RDR2 on PC, I'd just wait a bit longer until the price drops. **********s.

I paid that for GTA V the first day it came out. I got way more than my money's worth. Probably hours per penny.

If it's like GTA, the price won't drop for a long time. Gotta keep shareholders (like me!) happy.

Hey! I have a ****ty Xbox! Wait. What
