Okay, dicknozzles. If you're going to post abusive spam, at least don't do it in caps. That shit hurts my eyes.

I bought Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. If you like beautiful environments, fun combat, and characters who are actually kinda subtle, hit this up.

Platforming is really easy too.

The demo was pretty mediocre for my taste, but I can't say for sure really.

Once you get into the city the game changes into something really pretty.

Might as well get both TBH, I am. Castlevania is longer, but Enslaved has a better story. It's almost like some sort of symbolic film thing at times, the presentation and writing is so great. Plus the dialog and character expressions aren't in your face, it actually feels subtle for a videogame.

This time of year I have a limited amount of time and resources. April's birthday is in November. Abbey's is in December. And then there is fucking goddamn Christmas. Also, I imagine that most of my game playing time will be revolving between Comic Jumper (which came out today and everyone should buy), Left 4 Dead, and Costume Quest.

So, it's possible that I might buy one of them, but I won't buy both.

Then spend less money on presents, Christ IDC what religion you are the point of Christmas isn't to buy things.

Anyway I'm playing Ace Combat 6, really awesome game even though I'm not that into flight sim/fighter games. It's definitely one of those forgotten 360 exclusives that really kick butt.

You make us seem so young with your bills.

I'm replaying Dragon Age: Origins, achievement hunting mostly and enjoying the story from a different angle this time. First I was a heroic elf; now I'm a dickhead of a dwarf.

If you live with your parents, you are not entitled to enter the adult conversations.

Not to be a dick, but there is a huge difference with being 20, barely out of high school, and just finding your way in the world, and being an actual grown up with people who depend on you for everything.

Not saying that I'm better. I'm just saying that you don't really know what you're talking about.

That Banjo-Kazooie port that was done on the 360.

Probably my second-favorite game, first being Tooie.

I never finished Tooie because my daughter played it while I was at work, got a bunch of the jiggies, and left me very confused as to what needed to be done still.

No. I wasn't playing games much in the N64 days. I probably only played two games for that entire generation of systems.

I did play some of those games after that generation was over. Oddworld for instance.

But the two games that I actually played in that generation were Super Mario 64 and Final Fantasy 7.

Well in that case, Castlevania is much longer, so go with that. more bang for your buck.

Perhaps, but going two months behind on your bills because you want to buy some toys seems a bit strange nonetheless.

Ah, we are high school boys,
the miserable high school boys.
If we were girls, we could get popular by doing anything:
rock band, jazz band,
karate, kendo, mahjong, cyborg, synchronized swimming...
On the other hand, high school boys are
useless outside battle and sports anime.
But they're recklessly trying to make a slice-of-life anime about us.
Ah, we are high school boys,
the miserable high school boys.
