Beat Bioshock 2. The ending was better than I thought it would be. According to steam it took me 32 hours, Though this includes time spent in menus and idling. so I'd guess on actually gameplay it'd be more like 27-28 hours.

Also I haven't even touched the multiplayer yet.

This is impossible.
There is no possible way for BioShock 2 to last more than 10 hours. The game has like 5 levels?

As for the question,

I just finished Bioshock 2, and my total playtime was 9 hours. So I really don't know how you could be sitting on a near 30 hour play time.

I now have no idea what I should play.

Hard Mode with the Vita-Chambers off (though I remember you telling me you turned them off to) I also explored every location and did not leave till I could figure out how to access areas otherwise cut off. and collected all of the Adam I possibly could with the little sisters. Also have a very meticulous nature.

Quote from: Kezay
Is Dante any good?  TRU has a pretty good deal going for Battlefield BC 2 this coming week and I'm thinking the second game I want to get is Dante.  It's either that or Left 4 Dead 2, but I don't have Live up and running so I wouldn't mind skipping out on L4D2 for something else if it's decent.

Eh, Dante isn't necessarily bad, but looking back, I probably would've just rented it, or at least waited until it came down in price.  There are also a few annoying platforming bits. where you have to be on the exact pixel of a platform, or you won't grab the ledge, or you'll slide off of it (My last update about my progress, I was stuck on the last jump before Greed, for a good 20 minutes because the game didn't register Dante as being close enough to a rope, even though the game was giving me a prompt to grab it, it would just make me go back to the jump I was on beforehand.  And there's a few glitches that require you to restart certain sections, as there's no "Restart Checkpoint" option. (Things like Levers not showing up, or being able to be used, nothing too game breaking)

If you plan on getting Dante though, get the counter move in Unholy, than level the Holy tree.  Its extremely OP. (Powerful Long range attack, against mostly melee enemies, plus towards the end(level 6 and 7 Holy) you get health back whenever you kill someone with the cross.

EDIT: New glitch...  After killing the boss in Violence, and the platform descends, the camera stopped following me and I died.  After I respawned I got flashes of the water tile, or something (Blue texture, idk what it actually was) than died again, than I respawned where I was supposed to.

It was kinda strange, and I thought my game just died.

That's exactly why I don't like it as much as PS3 LBP.
Sure it handles really well, but it kind of seems like half the game is there. However, it -is- a good PSP game!

I just realised that there were a few times I left the computer with Bioshock still running... that is probably the reason for steam reporting 30ish hours.

playing Call of Pripyat and it's really good, if not for the filler plot i'd say it's definitely the most polished STALKER game yet and probably with Atmosfear/Photorealistic Creatures the best looking if they would increase the fucking grass draw distance. it's sad because i was actually expecting this to be a semisequel and not just a medium sized expansion pack.   

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

I didn't even know they were making anything else STALKER related.

Better than Clear Sky? I didn't like Clear Sky at all.

Call of Pripyat is probably the best out of the three, I'd say. I've only played a little bit of it.

I hope they're gonna start working on STALKER 2 now, that's what GSC said they would do once Call of Pripyat was released in America.

Oh and fuck I just watched the Black Station developer walkthroughs for Metro 2003, and now I really can't wait till it unlocks on my Steam. That game looks incredible.

I just saw that Mega Man 10 was released today!

And for the first time ever, a new Mega Man game, and I don't feel like downloading it. Now, don't get me wrong I love the Mega Man games, but I'm a bit worried that I'll stray far away from homework / studying and my own projects, so no dice for me.

Still looking to buy a game this year; the first purchased game in over 2 years.  :mellow:


Happy 1st Anniversary - MONOPOLO!
Released April 2nd, 2009 - Right Here, On GW!

Holding Back ATM on games. I'm soo far behind on my class work. But when i return I'll finish up my current prestige in MW2 (only 2 levels), then beat the 2nd and last Final Doom episode... and technically the final 'official' 2.5d episode of the Doom series. After that its Doom 3 (which I already beat) and its expansion...

I am playing Batman: Arkham Asylum. It is very good so far.

Just finished Heavy Rain in one sitting. Pretty darn good but the ending feels a bit rushed (like it feels like you are only halfway through at the 90% mark). 10 hours if anyone's interested, and I got virtually the best ending and nerd trophy, so I was checking everything out possible. Good, but definitely a rental not a purchase as people said.

Also same for Dante, which I got last week. Far far too short for a purchase but also really good.

ahahahaha i forgot about that dantes inferno game. im watching a video on youtube and the guy just fired glowing crucifix blasts at a harpy and oh my god he just found pontius pilate and there is a PUNISH/ABSOLVE choice and 'punish' gives you a special goredeath move ahaha jesus. oh my god the 'absolve' choice brings up a sin-capturing button press minigame that gives you 'bonus souls' aaaaaaahahahaha

i'm playing the second super mario gameboy game, where you have to get the six coins to get into wario's castle. one of the things i like about these games is that they don't make any real attempt to explain stuff or tie it all in together it's all just there. like one of the worlds is MECHANO-WORLD which takes place inside a giant robot mario. there is just this giant robotic mario thing standing around on a map between WATERZONE and WITCHZONE and it's never explained at all or whatever. it's pretty cool. wario's castle is still intolerable though.
