I downloaded Abe's Oddysee, but I'm going to finish Exoddus again before I play it too much.

~it's so much better than AE!

Seriously, what with the ~ in all your posts? I need to know.

I think it's like, supposed to some sort of humorous addendum or something. But, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Crashpunk · #**813** 11-21-2009, 01:44 PM

I think its ment to be a PS or a Edit.

enchilado · #**814** 11-21-2009, 09:57 PM

No, it's not. It's just a... thingy that I use. I just randomly started one day and haven't looked back since.

Mac Sirloin · #**815** 11-22-2009, 06:35 AM

Played some New Super Mario Bros. Wii. It is immensely difficult.

Mac Sirloin · #**816** 11-22-2009, 07:59 AM

Just to solidify my above point, NSMBW is honest-to-goodness hard. It's challenging, but in a good way. Also it's not just a port of NSMB, as I thought.

Definitely worth a try.

Phylum · #**817** 11-22-2009, 09:46 PM

It is very fun. Tried it on the demo wii at my local gametraders. I spent 20 mins playing it from world 2 and thought SMB3 FTW?

~This thought was closley followed by oh wait, it's a SMB game...

The ~ is definitely for either in conclusion or additional

I bought it for Abbey for her birthday. Of course, her birthday hasn't come yet, so we haven't played it.

Tomb raider 1. That's right, the old tomb raider 1.

Seriously, what with the completely lacking content, smugness and generally being a turd stabber in all your posts? I need to know.

I finished "World of Goo" ... It was pretty fun.

OANST · #**822** 11-24-2009, 09:43 AM

Twisted Pixel finally put up an online store, but everyfuckingthing sold out in the first day except for the Maw plushie. Which is awesome.

Disgruntled Intern · #**823** 11-24-2009, 10:26 AM

bought one for the fetus. She will be surrounded by that, a couple of uglydolls, and some crazy fucking bacon guy upon her arrival.

Also, Splosion Man and Dragon Age: Origins, still.

Been playing Modern Warfare 2 and LFD2 at work on the weekends, though.

OANST · #**824** 11-24-2009, 10:43 AM

You should get her one of the Mr. Pokeylope onesies from the Doublefine store. Those are the shit.

Disgruntled Intern · #**825** 11-24-2009, 11:00 AM

I've been trying to convince Dorian of that for months.

OANST · #**826** 11-24-2009, 11:12 AM

If Abbey hadn't already been too old for it when it came out, she would have been sporting that shit constantly.

Mac Sirloin · #**827** 11-24-2009, 11:13 AM

The Maw and Splosion Man Tee's look neat. The Splosion man one is in stock, too.

Not sure about the Maquettes though. Maybe a signed Maw when I have money to burn.

Aw, international shipping from my own pocket? Dicks.

The 'Splosion Man shirt was one of the things that they sent me from the contest. So, I already have that, and of course the Maw shirt is sold out.

Left 4 Dead 2. Played some Versus with OANST and some other friends earlier. great stuff.

Mac Sirloin · #**830** 11-28-2009, 01:17 PM

I got both Dead Space and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance for about 10 bucks. M:UA is okay I guess.

T-nex · #**831** 11-28-2009, 02:00 PM

Dead Space is a rather fun game

Fun to watch in any case.

MeechMunchie · #**832** 12-04-2009, 08:47 AM

Trackmania Nations. Best. Freeware. Ever.

Mac Sirloin · #**833** 12-04-2009, 12:48 PM

Dead Space is great. It's really challenging, and makes you take care what weapons you use when. The Upgrade node system is neat, too.
Basically, you can commit a node to either your weapons, RIG (your suit), the Stasis pack (a RIG mounted tool that slows things down), Or your...Kinesis. Which is basically an extremely simplified gravity gun.

These are then broken down into seperate categories on a 'circuit'. Sort of like a fuse, or wiring, each node allows you to connect another node to the adjacent one, but not every single node has a use.
O=Used node
+=Open node that can be charged
x=Open node that cannot be charged
- and I='Wiring', the lines connecting nodes.
(Ammo)
O------------O--------+
(Damage) I(space)I
O------------+--------X

So while you may be tempted to simply upgrade the first echelons of every item you come across, it pays to commit to the empty nodes in the long run. I can understand if you find this boring but to me it's AWESOME.

Also the guns and enemies are great.

Playing Braid... some serious mindfuck at some stages

enchilado · #**835** 12-04-2009, 10:51 PM

Playing Blob Wars: Blob and Conquer. It's actually pretty good.

What he said. Boss fights are pretty good, too.

I've explained some of the harder puzzles in the Braid thread. If you get stuck, check in there.

I like the boss fight with the Leviathan. It was pretty challenging figuring out what to do when, but when I finally killed it I was like "HELL YEAH I'M FUCKIN INVINCIBLE". Also because it gives you a bazillion health packs, but if you know what to do, you won't need to use them, and can sell or stockpile them which comes in super handy.

Dead Space is probably the best horror game this gen.

Daxter King · #**839** 12-05-2009, 11:10 AM

Had to return Left 4 Dead 2 to Blockbuster. I played some MW2 last night, and it was boring as shit, probably gonna sell it. I might rent Dead Space/Mass Effect/GTA4 Epsiodes/AC2 later though.

Mac Sirloin · #**840** 12-05-2009, 04:20 PM

You could probably find Dead Space used for as much as it costs to rent it.

I want to rent borderlands.
