Any of the Leisure Suit Larry series. He'll love it.

Seriously,if he doesn't have skyrim and never played it before, if you dont buy it for him I will. That game for a short time there became my real life. I thought this was all fake

I was surprised when I found out he played video games.

All the more reason to get him Skyrim.
The characters in Skyrim he can most likely relate to, plus the game is set in completely gorgeous scenery and beautiful immersive music. And yet, it's completely ****ing badass at the exact same time.

I literally played this game for a year straight.

Apparently he really liked Assassins Creed 3 (PS3).

Which game resembles AC3 (besides AC2 and AC1)? I've never gotten into games so I have no idea.

Some suggestions I've recieved so far:
Uncharted 3
Red Dead Redemption
Farcry 3

Thanks.

Get him Batman:Arkham City

or the new Hitman game....

Skyrim.

Its a must have. I play it with my 6 year old daughter by my side. She loves the whole fantasy thing, dragons, knights, wizards, etc.

We would both agree, just walking around the world of skyrim alone is a blast. Always something new.

Both of my daughters get mad when they see me playing 'that Fallout game again' because they loooove to watch me play Skyrim instead, for that exact reason. They usually pick the type of destination - cave, castle, city, etc.

Plus there is the hilarity of 'Daddy, kill that deer!" or 'try to shoot that mountain goat in the butt with your bow!'. To which I always oblige.

Fun times

Borderlands 2. Or pre-order BioShock Infinite.

Come on, a pre-order is an awesome gift, think of the suspense...

dvl7 · 12-04-2012, 07:28 PM

Skyrim is awesome. Borderlands was good and the second one has gotten very favorable reviews. The hitman games are fun but lack replayability imo. I wouldn't get anything in the far cry series, the first two were terrible with boring storylines and clunky controls.

So I would say either skyrim or borderlands 2.

Oh yeah and skyrim.

Skyrim.

Did I mention skyrim?

Probably skyrim.

Skyrimjobs are great too. Playing skyrim whilst getting a rimjob

The XBOX's at Costco are now bundled with both Skyrim and Forza Motorsport. I need a new XBOX, and I would have bought it then but I already own Forza.

Play Unreal Tournament with the CrotchShot mod.

Pure. HILARITY.

you'll hurt from laughing.

Thanks for the help.

We're going with Uncharted 3.

Keeping Skyrim for his B day coming up soon anyways.

I guess that makes sense - if you buy him Skyrim now he'd probably still be playing it when his birthday rolls around.
