yeah well i'm playing worms armageddon 2 on the xbox and i am so pissed that i didn't know there was going to be a pc version because otherwise i would have waited so i could play with my gw-bros >

also i'm playing haunting ground because i finally found a copy ;D

well the official status of the PC version is "TBA" so I wouldn't hold my breath that it is going to come out any time soon

Wow. I'm sure it's been said before, but here it is again: Eat Lead is a pretty shitty game. The controls are decent, and the ability to pop between cover is alright. But for a comedy game, there's little to no comedy. At the beginning it gives us a Ha Ha about retro game cliches and follows it up with monotonous levels of enemies who you can't hit with Max Hazard's horrible aim. It was kind of funny when Max became a stereotype of himself, a tired, boring stereotype. Because I guess that's the joke. Maybe it gets funnier later in the game. Getting there seems a chore so far. I fell asleep in the last part of the casino level. (stage2)

WOOT. Finally beat Far Cry 2 after 50+ hours. It was my first run through and I played on the hardest difficulty "Infamous".

Ending was sort of anti-climactic. And was sort of depressing.

I'm now going to play trough ALL of the Medal of Honor games (for the first time) and Call of Duty games... starting at the very first Medal of Honor on the PS1.

Skipping Modern Warfare when I get to it because I beat it already. (it being the only game among all of them that I've beaten or even played for more then 5 minutes) and possibly a few of the shittier console releases.

EDIT: After about 2 hours of playing I've gotten through half of Medal of Honor. (found out from a FAQ)

Found my Disk 1 for Koudelka so been playing that, got upto a boss I hate on Disk 2, and afer casting FortifySTR on it (Which weakens it's STR, wierdly enough) I dropped it's 8 Hit chain attack to go from dealing over 1000 damage to just 0, made the boss far easier than on a normal, not so cheap, run through. Ohwell, I might actually see the ending of the game this time XD

The only ones I found worth playing were the original Red/Blue games and that was for Pokemon Stadium on the N64 which was amazing.

Well, Gold/Silver/Crystal where great as well. Just after that everything went to shit and so did the expansions. [Emerald ][/Emerald]

But yeah, Red and Blue will always have a place in my heart because of the glitches. (Missingno. ^__^.)

I tried playing some pok'mon gams

mainly Platinum and FireRed

I played way too much platinum in my opinion, and beat it, found it to be a really good game

however I couldn't get into FireRed at all, same goes with other pokemon games.. chucks.

Back in the day, I use to play on Pokemon Red. I had all 151 of the original pokemon on my pokedex, though I had to use gameshark to get ones like bulbasaur and charmander (started with squirtle). I really did love games like those back in the late 90s early 2000s, but I guess I just moved on.

@ Liquid Ocelot: Love the avatar, it makes me laugh. Good ol' Super Mario 2 humor.

I was thinking of actually starting a pokemon game in which every pokemon would be named after a black metal band or musician... I decided against it

nice~ Mediamolecule released the Ghostbusters costume / sticker pack today. They were just going to have the four ghostbusters and some stickers. It didn't seem too cool. Then at launch they announced the Slimer and Stay Puft Marshmallow Sack costumes! Looks awesome! Guess that's what'll be in my ps3 tonight.

You're better off to keep LBP in the PS3 than even bothering to return to Eat Lead: it doesn't get any better towards the end.

I've been playing Prototype. I've gotten through the game once, so I think I'm going to go back and put it on Hard and see how that works out. I enjoy the mindless fun; it's great stress relief.

Check it out! I'm doing NaNoWriMo this year!

i just got an r4 the other day, and now i'm playing Hotel Dusk on someone's (i think hundley's???) recommendation. it is very good so far! love the noir atmosphere

i don't think it was me. i played a little bit of hotel dusk and didn't find myself particularly wowed by it. i should give it another chance sometime.

at the moment i've been playing rez hd for the 360. absolutely stellar game, and i'm hopelessly addicted to it. i'm in the top 20 for the overall xbox leaderboard for six of the eight areas, and my worst score is 31st overall on level 2. it's pretty sad, really, but i guess if i was going to be really good at a game i'd want it to be rez.

Yeah I got bored fighting the boss Nitronov or whoever. The second level boss. If the aiming system actually worked I wouldn't mind the game so much. The fact you waste half your ammo for the headshot you're prefectly lined up on in a game with scarce ammo is just a pain in the ass.
Also, LBP is getting better and better. There's still so-so levels being pumped out. But some of the levels are way better than even Mm's story levels. I am also digging those levels that play themselves. They're pretty sweet, at least to watch. Moreso than the rollar coasters anyway.

I'm considering getting S.T.A.L.K.E.R. for my friend. She mentioned it and I thought I'd buy it for her as a surprise, but is this game any good?

ARGH... so much for playing games on my PSP. My square button keeps getting stuck... making the game I am playing unplayable.

My copy of Persona 4 came today, 1st class post ftw, so I've been playing that. Not that far in but liking what I've played so far, battles are an alright challenge, until I can exploit the weaknesses.

Also started Dragon Quest again, gone for different weapons for each than most people do, and so far so good.
My parties qeaponry: Hero-Boomerang, Yangus-Scythes, Jessica-Knives, Angelo-Bow. Just wish the Hero would get mroe Skill Points on level up ¬.¬
