Played and finished FEAR2, i kindof screwed up playing... should of played it at night to get more of the horror in it beside of doing it during the day, which kindof ruined the game... but it was good

If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.

Claymore mines are not filled with yummy candy, and it is wrong to tell new soldiers that they are.

Got to see a video for the conversation system in The Old Republic-looks just like Mass Effect's, near as I can tell. dancing

Graphics look something like a cross between Mass Effect and Kotor 2 with a slightly WOW/cartoony style.

Overall, one sharp looking SW game though. shock

Traded in CoD: World at War the other day and picked up CoD4 for the 360 with the hopes of brushing up a bit before Modern Warfare 2 comes out here in a few months... Wow. I had forgotten how addictive multiplayer is on this game...and how much better it was than World at War. I should have waited though, because now I'm completely pumped for Modern Warfare 2 and have to wait until November for it...

i need to give it a try online. it is a tough game i think.

game fly is treating me good so far but my first rental, kim took to the P.O. by her work and they scanned it that day so i had a new game in 4 days. the last 2 i sent from the house and has taken 6 days just to scan it at the P.O. weird.

Playing Arkham Asylum right now...OM*G!

A DC superhero game that not only doesn't suck but kicks a whole lotta *** and just keeps on kicking. Definitely gonna have to go through again-Detective mode is so useful that I leave it on most of the time and miss out on the pretty graphics. Best Batman game ever, which doesn't say a lot, best superhero game, which, again, doesn't say a lot and best game this year, which still doesn't say a lot, but this is seriously one mega-awesome game. A must for Bat-fans and a must for anyone who had to suffer through all the god-awful craptacular games like Superman 64, Aquaman, and pretty much any Batman game up to B:AA. Any Supes game, too, for that matter.

Play This Game!!!


>>That has to be starred out. wink

Yes, it was quite an awesome game. I loved it.

I got the PS3 version because of the exclusive DLC, but if anyone is trying to make that decision...the Joker challenge rooms aren't really all that special. They're basically the Batman challenge rooms, but with more limitations (no going up high to gargoyles, the crazy glasses work like detective mode, but you can't move with them on). His takedowns are pretty funny though (silent takedown is a crotch-kick from behind rather than batman's chokehold). It's a nice addition to have I guess, but if you prefer playing on the 360, you might as well get it for that.

Apparently there is something at the end, and it mocks and torments you every step of the way. tongue

Is anyone picking up Halo: ODST tonight?

At first, I was mildly interested, but as I learned more, my interest grew. The fact that Nathan Fillion voiced one of the characters decided this for me... when I get the money.

Im getting mine in the morning. The guy at gamestop said they will open sometime between 7-9 in the morning.

I just traded in Perfect Dark Zero, the Force Unleashed, COD Modern Warfare, Rainbow 6 Vegas and Tomb Raider Legand for $56 and paid the differance for ODST.

Just about finished with Arkham and considering trading it in towards either ODST or Assassin's Creed II. I know I want AC II but I do love playing some Halo so I need some opinions on ODST. What do you guys think so far? Multiplayer doesn't really interest me just cuz I'm not hooked up to live but how is the singleplayer campaign? Worth full price or should I wait and get it used?

I felt that Arkham was very much worth full price for the experience I got out of it, but after breezing through it so fast, I'm thinking it'll prolly be a year or so before I pick it up again. Thanks!

Also- Welcome, Robal!

Hi! I never post in here because I suck at video games, but out of a desire to keep my daughter from also sucking...any recommendations for a game for a three year old? I have an XBox 360.

there is a game called family game night that has a bunch of classic board games and stuff. all of the kids movies have games too.

check out viva pinata and the lego games. you should go down to a gamestop or ebgames and look at the used games. another option is if you have xbox live gold you can download games to your console. there are a ton of cheep down loadable games.

We have Family Game Night for the Wii. It ahs been fun, for the most part. I still want to throw Mr. potato head in boiling oil, but the game itself is great for kids.

There's a reason you separate military and the police.
One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people.
When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.

and learned i played it way too much as a kid. because I can still remember where all the hidden stuff in the game is. And i have not played it in at least 10 years.
