Started Far Cry 3 the other day, got maybe 2 or 3 hours in when the world was opening up, and quit because it fails at being open world.
Go to activate a radio tower to open up that part of the map, save the game and quit for the night. Come back and hey, I seem to remember already getting that, so why is it saying I didn't now? Go to get it again, after its activated leave that part of the world, but get on a boat and start heading to the next one and now its saying I failed a mission I didn't ever start...and then automatically reloads the last save point, and that damn antenna is still not captured. Apparently there was a mission on that island the antenna was on, and just by stepping foot on it launched the mission, and you can't leave or else.
Then finally found some Dingos to murder to upgrade some capacity thing, killed them, crafted my item and got my extended capacity, did something else and then thought I'd head towards my next destination in a jeep in the manner you do in an open world game (as the crow flies, no matter the obstacles). After falling down the cliff and dying, instead of burdoning me by just warping me to a safe house or hospital with some cash missing like pretty much every other open world game, it oh so helpfully just reloaded my last save thereby getting rid of like 20 minutes of game time...
So I was gonna wait until I beat Far Cry 3 before playing Remember Me, but nm, thats what I'm playing now.
Controls don't seem that tight, and trying to get the memory glitches activated is kinda annoying, and the voice acting is kinda meh (well, unless Neo-Paris is in Canada), But so far it seems good (haven't gotten that far though, only just now Bartleby'd my first ally.)
----------
Was kinda expecting more than a beat-em-up from Remember Me, played for about 4 hours (i think) and it only did the memory changing thing once, so far its just been a lot of very linear pseudo-platforming and then you get to a large platform or rooftop and have another generic fight.

So I took a break from that to play Little Inferno from the humble bundle. Was a nice relaxing kinda game, some of the combos didn't quite make sense and wouldnt have figured them out without looking them up or trying to burn everything with everything else, but overall I liked it.
Then I started Path of Exile, so far so good, skills kinda remind me of a mix between FFX and FFVII, you equip skills like materia into sockets and then your skill tree to amplify your skills/attributes is a big thingy like FFX. Didn't know it had all these social features and stuff built in, so just hoping it doesnt take up too much bandwidth to play since I have crap lousy limited internet.
