I bought Brütal Legend yesterday. Now I need to wait for my PS3 to arrive in the post.

played some MW2 last night, and it was boring as shit,.



MW2 is awesome 4 player splitscreen, due to the profiles/leveling-up. That's what a group of my friends and I are doing over the holidays. Also, there are some epic moments online.

There is some new single player DLC coming soon for it, as well. I can't wait.

I beat Dead Space. What a good game. Going to play through it from the start as SUPER SPACE ENGINEER now.

Seriously, those are all I want for christmas.

Edit: it took my about 2/3's of the Big Daddy page to realize that it was snowing. Goddamn Canada.

OANST 12-07-2009 12:36 PM

I'm trying to buy the new Zelda game today, but every place I call doesn't have it yet. Douchebags.

Also, it's snowing here, as well.

Mac Sirloin 12-07-2009 12:41 PM

It says it should be released today, but that's often confused with the estimated day that shipping of the first release wave is concluded.

Basically try again tomorrow because they're withholding it.

I have just gotten back into playing Monster Hunter on the PS2. It's a shame it can't be played online anymore, I never got the chance to. I'm also remembering how frustrating and difficult the game can get.

THERE'S A NEW ZELDA GAME AND I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT?!
Excuse me, I think i'm going to go shoot myself. The world can only stand so much ignorance.

Phylum 12-08-2009 07:39 PM

Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time.

Fairly tricky on hard, loads of stuff to find and big guns. I'm loving it :D

Taco 12-08-2009 09:37 PM

Adventure Island 3 on NES.... DONT JUDGE ME

Jordan 12-09-2009 07:59 AM

Chrono Trigger DS. I've taken a sudden liking to 'end of the world' scenarios. Plus, I needed to replay it anyway so I could finally beat it.

OANST 12-10-2009 08:58 AM

I picked up Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks yesterday. I only played it for about an hour and a half before my DS ran out of juice, but that was a really fun hour and a half. From what I hear, it's a lot like Majora's Mask in terms of how many side quests there are, and how diverse they are.

MeechMunchie 12-10-2009 09:09 AM

Just curious, has anyone here played Anchorhead?

Hobo 12-10-2009 09:11 AM

Modern Warfare 2 and Tekken 6. One of them I'm shit at. The other I am not. Guess which.

Mac Sirloin 12-10-2009 12:27 PM

I bought Ninja Gaiden II yesterday. Playing on easy mode because I'M A BIG FAT PUSSY AND HATE HARD GAMES

It's still pretty difficult, though. Fuck the second boss fight.

I've never been so angry at a game than at NG2. That game loves to throw two bosses or more in a row at you with no healing.

slig# 5719 12-10-2009 03:42 PM

The ninja gaiden series was designed to hate us with a passion :p. It wants to kill us all horribly. It's not a question of if you get the game over screen, it's a question of when.

enchilado 12-10-2009 04:48 PM

I'm playing Dink Smallwood.

I remembered vaguely a demo of an RPG I'd played when I was six or seven, and I knew there were monsters on the farms and you had to find a duck to get out of the village.

So I googled "find duck escape village monsters farms" and Dink Smallwood was the first result. It's it.

It's actually a pretty good game.

Mac Sirloin 12-12-2009 11:19 AM

I rented Borderlands and have more or less been playing it nonstop. I chose the Berserker because he's avenging his dog or something and his special ability is punching.

Really, really fun game, but I am really fucking sick of getting stuck in walls and having to reload. It happens stupidly often.

They aren't kidding about the guns, either; as far as I can tell the only repeating weapons are those you get from respawning bosses, and usually those are only good for as long as it takes for you to become strong enough to kill them like any other enemy.

I was kind of wary about getting rid of my old guns for better new ones at first, mostly for sentimentality. I kind of struck gold with the shields, too. The 3rd one I found recharges your health super duper fast.

I'm getting better at it, and the Acolyte mode is pretty easy once you know what to do. I'm on the big metal snake boss that excretes lightning. Not really as frustrating as the other ones since he's more a matter of dodging then shooting arrows and not BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK SINGLE SWORD SLASH TAKE A BAZILLION DAMAGE BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK

Daxter King 12-12-2009 03:00 PM

Once I got a boss down to a tiny amount of health in that game. Only to have it glitch and disappear. This boss was in a maze of sorts. This maze was full of enemies. These enemies respawned every five seconds. Fuck that game.

Taco 12-12-2009 11:15 PM

I'm playing through Mass Effect again. It's fucking awesome, but the uncharted worlds are pretty repetitive/

Use your mystical fire attack when he shoots his little flying sperms after you. Also, I was hero for the day at work for beating that boss. On my first try. The next day I went back to being the same old fuck, unfortunately.

Daxter King 12-20-2009 09:24 PM

It seems Gears 2 is playable now, I've been playing games with no lag and no glitches that make me angry. Only problem is it seems everyone already left, so its hard to find games. Fun though.

Dipstikk 12-20-2009 09:32 PM

I just started AND beat my first Valve game yesterday at the arcade. This was a triumph.

slig# 5719 12-20-2009 11:44 PM

I've got into Second Sight again and almost finished it...

Which game was it?

Does playing with yourself count?.. No, I'm just kidding.
I've been playing some spyro game, It's not much.

Wish the same could be said for Castle Crashers. I tried playing the other night and was about ready to pull my fucking hair out.

I played CC for the first time in months yesterday as well. That's spooky, yo.

Anyway, HOLY SHIT I THINK MY SISTER IS GOING TO GIVE ME BRUTAL LEGEND FOR CHRISTMAS HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGH

On the other hand, my XBL Subscription expires on Wednesday.

Disgruntled Intern 12-21-2009 06:08 PM

You should play with me and Elvis some time. I'm getting a new headset soon. We play on insane mode, or whatever the fuck it's called. It's better that way.

Mac Sirloin 12-21-2009 06:15 PM

I'd like that. I don't see myself getting a new card for about a month, though.
