I had the same experience, when I realized the game hadn't autosaved and I lost the progress I had made in the couple hours I played it I simply shrugged it off. With something like Fallout I would have been excited to try things in a different way but not so much with Mass Effect.

Still playing the Arkham Horror tabletop game, but I wanted to recommend an MMO that I've been playing lately: The Secret World.

Do you like secret societies (like the Illuminati)? Do you like Lovecraft? Do you like Indiana Jones?

If you answered yes, you would like this game. The premise of The Secret World is that these secret societies have been guarding our world against evil and invaders from other dimensions for years, and now you are recruited into their ranks and must help.

I also have been doing a second playthrough of Skyrim. This time as a Breton mage. It's fun, but I think my first character was more fun (a Nord warrior type).

Yeah - There isn't enough of the story to keep me engaged, unfortunately. You're right to draw a line to Fallout because there I just couldn't put it down - That world was fun to explore but with Mass Effect it's oddly cumbersome.

On the complete other side of the spectrum, I finally started to play Lollipop Chainsaw (PS3) - I found it incredibly entertaining for the first couple of hours, and then the clunky game engine really got to me... Oh, and the villains are really unimaginative and dumb. Too bad; this could have been a good, silly, fanboy schlock game but it just didn't come together...

Ordered Dishonored for the 360 to hopefully fill the void.

Hotline Miami

Badass game if you like really fast paced action games with a little strategy thrown it, seems like it can get really difficult quickly though. I also like the fact that it doesn't hold your hand and makes you experiment a little with weapons and the environment.

I have to double post, if only to draw attention to State of Decay. I absolutely love the game, it might not be for some people but it's on my shortlist of favorite zombie games for sure.

"Metro - Last Light" PS3

An open world (including side missions) and a freakin' map would've been MUCH appreciated, coz
Metro has a lot of things working for it. Too bad i suck at 1 person shooters.
