how big is the learning curve for a new player? I skipped Madden this year, so I'd like to try FIFA out.
One of the things I like about the game is that you build up your skills. It has settings that as a beginner you can have fun and work up to being an expert with the controls
So after doing extensive research, Vive seems like it will come out on top. Steam backing counts for something. First game I wanna test is elite dangerous.

Can you tell us specifically what made you choose Vive. I would appreciate it as I am very interested in purchasing a VR system.

A bigger tracking area
Already comes with controllers
Full body motion w/ a neat feature that warns you when you get close to real objects in your room
You can play Rift games on the Vive with 3rd party software
Many more VR titles to choose from and the fact you have Steam involved is huge.

Basically all this. I'm a big believer in Steam as they are pretty much the standard when it comes to new game releases outside of EA. It's a bit pricier than the rift, but you'll get what you pay for.
As for what's here right now, just got SPAZ 2. Cheap indie game (14 bucks on sale) that's addicting as hell. Was supremely let down by no man's sky.
took me 6 months to get through Witcher 3 and I liked it all the way through.
Best game of that genre I've ever played and it blew Fallout 4 away, IMO.
I really had a hard time where I had to fight in the Arena or collesium, whatever you call it. After that I just stopped. I loved it up to that point, but i got so frustrated with the game. I must have tried a hundred times getting throught that point, but kept dying.

What other games do you recommend for it? I got it through Amazon and they gave me Tilt Brush, The Gallery - Episode 1: Call of the Starseed and Zombie Training Simulator.
Brother just gifted this to me. Spent first hour of gameplay just trying to beat the first boss. Now that I'm through that, I can't put it down. Game is phenominal.

Are you referring to the point in The Witcher where you have to free the dude and keep him safe?
I rarely had any issues beating anyone in that game, except the final boss in the last DLC. I think a lot of it just depends on how highly leveled you are and how well you use your potions and spells.

Dark Souls was a great game. I never did beat that one. I heard the third one was great as well.
If you have a PS4 and like Dark Souls, you definitely need to try Bloodborne. Its really fantastic.
You'd asked about PES 17. It just arrived yesterday and I've had the chance to play it a bit.
My review would be similar to what you've probably already read online. In terms of off-field presentation and obviously licensing, FIFA is miles ahead. The game play on the field is significantly better in PES.
My biggest complaint with FIFA the last couple years was that the tactics weren't completely customizable, and even if they were the changes made by me really didn't seem to reflect on the field. In PES you can make more tactical changes and the players are more influenced by those changes. The game feels better too. It's easier to make swift passing moves, and crossing in particular feels more true to life.
I will say the learning curve going from FIFA to PES (and probably vice versa) is enormous. I played two matches online and got waxed 4-0 and 5-0. But while I'm struggling my opponents scored some mouth watering goals that I didn't see in FIFA. I don't mean 25 yard screamers, but good passing moves that ended in realistic looking finishes.
I still don't understand why PES continues to have shitty menus. The game has so many features and is so customizable that a clear menu system is really important. But yet again they've fallen way short in this area.
I wouldn't recommend one game over the other, because it really looks like a matter of taste. I'd be lying if I said the lack of licenses didn't bother me, but on the other hand the actual game play really is incredible.
that jibes with everything I've heard. I have to be honest though - I LOVE the new FIFA. While I'm building my Ultimate Team, I delved into the new storyline mode and it is incredible. I picked Everton as the club my guy would play for and the atmosphere and the feeling I'm actually in Goodison Park are pretty damn cool.
Even whn my guy gets sent out on loan, I chose Newcastle, so you still have the history of that club and stadium too.
I'm having a bitch of a time scoring though and it is like they've ratcheted up the AI on lower levels. I'm playing the offline league which is mainly against Amatuer level play and my bronze guys got waxed, my Silver's might get some ties and I had to use a gold team to win the promotion. In past years, I'd win the early levels like 4-0 most games.
One cool thing this year is that they have new squad building challenges where if you meet the criteria for a squad, they take those players away and give you a reward. For instance, you can trade an entire team of NOS players for a Legends Portugese player. But they start out even better than that. Trade in two bronze defenders and get a special pack. Trade in your unwanted bronze players and get a silver pack. This is perfect as I've already traded in most of my assigned players for better ones where in past years, you were stuck with them.
Still can't get rid of the assigned kits, stadiums and balls though.

I always buy stuff on sale for 19.99 GOTY editions, so patiently waiting for Fallout 4.

Pretty much how I've been lately. Still waiting for Witcher 3 GOTY 19.99. Hopefully this Black Friday.

Witcher 3 is one of the better games I ever played.
Best game of that genre I've ever played and it blew Fallout 4 away, IMO.
Skyrim is the best of the action RPG's that I've played over the past 5/6 years and that was before the remaster.

Couldn't agree more. Fantastic game and I'm sorry to see the story come to a close.

Doom is coming out 2017 which I'm excited about. Theres a funhouse type game which is kind of cool. Job simulator looks hilarious.
