i beat the story on LBP wayyy to quickly....although I can go replay to get 100% collections and of course all the online levels....still kind of upsetting.

Fallout 3 is going well though

King James · 02-05-2009, 09:36 AM

anyone else think the ending to fallout 3 sucks? I'm really disappointed.

King James · 02-10-2009, 09:57 AM

they made some really nice improvements to NHL 09 if you like sports games. Really increased the difficulty in shooting which makes it not so easy like last year

^^^ never heard of any of those, are you guys talking PC?

Fear 2 is available for XBOX360, PS3, and PC. House of the Dead and Deadly Creatures are both Wii only titles.

Looks cool, but I'm not allowed to play fighting games anymore; broke too many controllers over Soul Caliber II

The wife has been getting sick of the shooting and explosions when I play COD4 and COD5, so I've been playing with my headphones on. OMG. I can hear so much more now. I can actually hear footsteps when someone's trying to creep up on me. Everything sounds so much more refined. It's a totally enhanced experience. I'd really have to crank up the sound to hear everything on my home theater. Especially to drown out the noise from the PS3 fan. I should have been playing with them on from the beginning.

Now I prefer to play with the headphones on, even when she's not around. I'll see how long it lasts.

I prefer to game with headphones too. If you want to get a nice pair of gaming phones, look at stuff by Audio-Technica.

Yea, I actually prefer headphones as well. I have a tritton headset that I like a lot, but what a pita to set up.

The game arrived, but we had company all night so I don't get to play until after work this afternoon...looked at the booklet, though

Zombies!! Yeah!!

VirtualSmitty · 04-09-2009, 08:40 AM

Been on the road a whole bunch but I have fit in a couple of games. Quick run down of what i've played over the last couple of weeks:

Resident Evil 5: Good fun, though the controls bother me a bunch.

Tom Clancy's HAWX: This game sucks. Boring, repetitive, and far too easy.

Mad World: This game is awesome! It's way over the top violent, but to the point where it is funny. Def worth a go.

Call of Duty WaW: New Nazi zombies FTW!

Empire:Total War: Awesome strategy game, though putting it on ultra high settings makes my pc weep. Awesome game

Cigargal · 04-09-2009, 08:49 AM

Res 5 was okay...played through one time and got to the final battle, which is clumsy and ridiculous-haven't finished Wesker off yet. Have to look for new game. Anything good in the pipeline?

Yea, RE5 didn't blow me away like RE4 did. As for upcoming games, Velvet Assassin for the 360 looks like a cool stealthy game and Demigod for PC kinda looks neat. Otherwise not too much catching my eye right now.
