i just dont like FPS single player/campaigns even battlefield3 singleplayer bored the shitout of me and i only got to sniper bit at the begining. multiplayer is super.. co-op i imagine would be the same as the single player, like shooting bots. just doesnt have the same effect as shooting another player. BFBC1/2 was fun though because it was quite funny. but idk maybe i should give the single player more time.

 

I just spent about a half hour on single play. cant be bothered. time for multiplayer!!! i'm going to get my ass destroyed.

duder ill be on later on and we shoudl team the fuck up. mics and everything.

this is the kinda shit im all about, first proper rinse last night this happend.

I just got waxed. i think i killed a man who looked like me. 1 man. got killed thousands of times. it's hard going from a game where you dominate to a game where you are a walking meat festival.

FreeSpace 2 because it's just about all my laptop will handle, and it's awesome.

man, i bought that game for like $5 but can't get it to work with my MAC. the whole process is way too complicated for me.

I'm playing it on a macbook, using wineskin innit.

shit just got real.

I realised that I haven't beaten InFamous 2 yet. So I'm continuing my saved game from a while ago. It's pretty good, but a little repetitive. I'm of coarse doing all of the side missions.

Skyrim in 1 week!!!

"unepic" kewl rougelike, with many loltastic moments

i want to try this one:

unepic looks like fun! thanks for letting me know. I've played a similar flash side-scroller roguelike but have never heard of this. http://www.robotacid.com/flash/red_rogue/

Finished Uncharted 3, quite good. It still has the incredible set pieces, great art direction, attention to detail and possibly the best character animations and facial expressions in the industry. But it's certainly not the innovative title that Uncharted 2 was. I think I liked Uncharted 2 better. It had (imo) better set-pieces, a less predictable plot and some more interesting environments. I got really frustrated with some of the gunplay in this one. And the discovery - puzzle - "we must have been followed" - combat sequence is starting to get a little old.

I had numerous technical issues during my 8 hour playthrough for some reason. Audio channels dropping out at random, low-res textures not streaming in, and a few crashes. Maybe my blu-ray drive is a bit broken, there is no install as far as I can tell.

I agree on the comments on game being less innovative and less of a step forward that uncharted 2. The gun based gameplay was just getting so boring by the end.

But the graphics and presentation totally make the game something special. Recommended goodness, overall

wow, batman is mind blowingly good. Overwhelming but at the same time brilliant, always having fun. I just did the ra's al ghul blood demon trial/boss fight section and that just blew me away. Plus the amount of clever riddler puzzles in the game is just amazing. Everywhere I look there is a detail or secret or something. The game's plot never ceases to change things up and make things more interesting, working with mr. freeze, all of the different powers and upgrades. Such a good game. I always expect comic franchise games to be money grabs, but this is a full fledged AAA title with many many innovative ideas and near flawless gameplay, amazing writing(seriously, I wasn't even into batman before and now I'm fascinated). I fucking loved arkham asylum(to my surprise, the demo wasn't that amazing), and this is easily just as good, but I am expecting it to be better by the time I am done.

got a few hours of MW3 in last night/this morning.

hmmmmm

At the moment I'm working my way through this pretentious open-ended text adventure where you play an increasingly frustrated man trying to get his external audio interface to work on his operating system. You have to obtain a seemingly endless supply of meaningless library dependencies via typing line after line of pseudo random commands in a vain attempt to get even a single beep from the speakers.

Even with a walkthrough I seem to be struggling on the first boss (ffado) who barks errors at every turn - you might have better luck though ( download link here )

6,000 Copies of MW3 stolen in truck heist

"While the game that was stolen from the shipping warehouse in California was probably done by amateurs, the copies that were stolen from a truck in Créteil, south Paris, were certainly not stolen by amateurs.

French site TFI News reports that the truck suffered a collision with a car before two masked individuals emerged. The criminals reportedly used tear gas to neutralise the truck drivers before hopping in and making off with the video game shipment said to be worth €400,000 (~$550,000)."

Is it me or are games pandering more and more towards infantile idiots nowadays

its just you.

they are more intelligent than ever.

i just played through the first 3 missions of modern warfare 3. after spending the past couple of weeks playing battlefield 3, it was like going back to random tony hawk game after playing skate. i really thought i would like it more, but i kinda got the same feeling as when i watched the third transformers movie, i get that the constant chaos is supposed to get my adrenaline pumping but it doesn't impress me one bit and is pretty much just one big yawn timestretched over 5 hours. looked better in the trailers.

also, playing this after spending time with bf3 really makes you appreciate good sound design. mw3 sounds like it's in mono and i had to actually check my sound settings to be sure they weren't all screwed up.
