My wife just picked up Assassins Creed 3. I was going to when it came out in Nov but honestly I couldn't be bothered with anything that wasn't Black Ops during that time LOL. She absolutely loved the 2nd one so I'm assuming this one will be similar.

I haven't had a chance to play it yet but will report back in when finals are over and when my work schedule lets up a bit.

No L.A. Noir discussion in here? It's made by Rockstar so it's got to be awesome.

I hadn't even heard of this game until yesterday. I need to do some research on it tonight.

Anyone picking up Brink? I'm gonna give it a week and then see what youtube reviews say about it before I decide to pick it up or not.

It wasn't really "hacked" per se...but they required only an e-mail address and a date of birth to change. Both of those pieces of data would have been in the database of whoever cracked in and stole info. I'll call it an exploit/workaround/glaring inconsistency

... I'm really trying to make it positive and say they caught it before anything major happened. *sigh*

Since Sony is a multi-billion dollar company, I would think they should have their **** together. But, I guess not.

Maybe Bill Gates is doing all this mischief!! He got bored with retirement.

I started up on DragonAge: Origins again last night. I tried it when it first came out, and it just didn't do anything for me. I am enjoying it quite a bit more so far. Just had it laying around for a year, seemed like it was time to sit down and play it haha.

Sony estimated a $171 Million cost for the PSN breach...only about $2 per account.

But between the earthquake and the PSN breach, they are at a net loss of $3.14 Billion for their fiscal year. Yowza.

I'm actually cracking out on Minecraft lately.

Bought Brink on Steam but need to get my new gaming rig (happy birthday to me) in order to even look at it.

Other than that I'm fiending for Mass Effect 3, Duke Nukem and... oh who knows what else.

30+ years of RPGing and DragonAge just kicked my a** all the time if I played anything but a tank.

I gave up early.

If you're digging Minecraft, you may want to check our Terraria also. Can be found on Steam.

I just began a replay of all the Fable games...forgot how much I love them!

Nice. I'll definitely check it out.thanks o/

Not a new one but you know what I really enjoy is Eufloria. If you're on steam pull down the demo. It's solid, simple and clever.

Minecraft is really crackilicious. Problem is on my laptop (win7/64) it locks up about every 10 minutes or so. Oddly I've gotten used to it and still play. The guys in the irc channel exhausted their suggestions at "upgrade video drivers".

Yup I always transfer my whole personal folder jsut for the wierd stuff that may be hidden there.


For Steam my crack addiction is Defense Grid, great tower game. On the oter hand, I haven't played much of anything since I started in LOTRO (Lord of the Rings Online).

Yeah, the mage stuff was all really cool. But I just love playing rogue archetypes too much. *squish*

Anything I can get on Steam I do. It's a spectacular platform. Mass Effect 1/2. Fallout, Eufloria, Rift, EvE, Orange Box games,etc.

I've just ordered a new gaming rig so all I have to do is figure out how to xfer saved games and I'm golden.

No more discs for me.
