Games I miss playing

Battlefield 3 (and Bad Company 2) - I used to enjoy playing in a squad with my brothers and friends of mine. Battlefield 4 was too buggy, big and crazy and never drew our attention and as time's moved on Battlefield 3 fell by the wayside. It was a game that worked best when you had a close team of 4 people working together.

Iron Brigade - This game died out for me and my friends because we played it to death. But a year on and I'm craving it again. The gameplay was so satisfying and the need for cooperative play to survive made it very rewarding and a great social game.

Minecraft - now, technically, I have played this recently. But I miss playing it with a bigger group of friends. I think I may have to invest in the PC version to achieve this, but then so will my mate who I have been playing with. Multiplayer on xbox is easy and makes things more casual, but everyone seems to be moving away from it and into PC gaming.

Fifa - To be more specific, it's playing in the pro team with my mates. It required serious teamwork, but we'd always have such a laugh doing it. Newer fifas have left this feature behind and consequently I've not bought fifa for a couple of years now. I really miss playing it though.

Wargaming - This goes back to gaming I used to do over a decade ago! Warhammer Fantasy; I'd love to play some small, characterful games, like we used to play with our 500 and 1000 point armies. Necromunda; I hardly played this, but what I did play I really enjoyed. I think there is a possibility of doing a campaign with my current friends, using Deadzone terrain and hashing gangs together with other companies models. Warhammer 40k; like with fantasy, I miss playing the smaller games, when I didn't own everything I wanted and had to put up with what I had - this would make for another topic to write about, force composition.


On the whole, from reading through again, I just miss playing good social games with people who enjoy playing the games too.
