Ok, quick show of hands. Who has Monday Night Combat?
I do. |
I plan on getting it. The demo was great with a buddy, i can see the possibility of this being some serious co-opness.
|
Yo.
|
Yeah pretty much done here.
|
I'll probably get it, considering how much I've played TF2 and DotA. I'm worried I won't play it, like I never play Fat Princess.
|
That's because Fat Princess is shit.

Took me 40 hours. I wanted to take my time with it, hence having it almost a year and only just finishing it.
Gonna start again in a few days with a new character and choose differently. Just trying to think of ways that they'll tie some things into Dragon Age 2. Like the Morrigan globe trotter thing |

I liked the changes to the armor and weapons, as it means I no longer have to wade through heaps and heaps of useless inventory. Between that and the skills changes, I can see why the rpg nuts would be upset, as it does overly simplify things, but the rpg elements were never the main draw for me. Planet mining is more tedious than exploring with the mako, but you only really have to do enough of it to get your upgrades. And I like the trade off of less N7 missions but with more variety. |
Yes, but a lot of what drew me in was that it was a hybrid shooter/RPG. When you streamline the RPG out, it's a fairly standard shooter. Inventory was kind of the least of my concerns, but taking out skills kind of made builds boring. It also reduced variety. I can see why they revised the "ammo" system, but it was dumb. This story was less engaging, which is a shame because it was somewhat more original than the first. If they were going to take out so much, they could have at least given us more kewl powerz. Or something.
|
Planet mining is a lot better now, they patched it and it's a lot faster.
|
One thing I will say, is that despite the story being pretty good, it doesn't advance the overall plot at all.

It wasnt a JRPG, thats for sure...but i dont think you should be expecting that from a north american company. |
Just bought Worms 3D (Xbox) for £1.99 online. I had it for the Ps2 when it first came out but, for some reason, my Ps2 hated certains games and the music would just jump and skip and, a lot of the time, the game just died on the loading screen. It wouldn't even read some discs at all.
Anyway, I looked online and it's compatible with the 360 so I can finally play it without random freezing. Although I bought Munch's Oddysee a few weeks ago because it was "compatible" and that was a let down. Yeah, it "worked" but the speech was completely inauidible which makes an Oddworld game unplayable. |
My PS3 just gave me the YLOD and the flashing red lights. :(
|
Went to Sony website and requested a service. They offered me a new PS3 slim for the price of the repair ($150) including shipping so I took it. It's not backward compatible like my old one was but oh well I hardly play my ps2 games anyways.

In more important video game news, I just beat Assassin's Creed 2, just going to finish collecting feathers. What used game should I look for next? Mass Effect 2? Just Cause? Bioshock?
|
Bioshock 100%
|
I think Bioshock would bore BDC.
I know people are gonna be all "haters gonna hate," But I talk to him pretty frequently. Just Cause is fun and really cheap. The sequel is probably also fun, especially based on the demo. Do you have Saints Row 2 Yet, Becker? I can co-op with you even. |
possibly. I'll look around.
|
SR2 is pretty badass.
|
Maybe, or maybe I just get that mnc game.
|
I hear it sucks.
|
Saints Row 2 is awesome, though the first is better IMO

Well I have a lot of options right now, so which ever seems the best for the cheapest.

Mass Effect 2 is only like 30 bucks now, at least in Canuckistan.

I will check out vintage stock to get it used. I have been having good luck with them.

The Cerberus Network is $10 though, so if you can get a second hand one for more than $10 off the new price, get the second hand one.

THQ developing Red Faction: Battlegrounds as a PSN/XBLA downloadable game. Unlike the previous Red Faction games, this one is set to be vehicle-combat based with a top-down perspective.

There has only been like 3 paid DLC released so far: a costume pack, a character (Kasumi), and a mission (Overlord).
Cerberus so far has released a mission (Firewalker DLC), a character, and numerous gun packs. So i'd say Cerberus has released some real quality stuff. |
I haven't played the game in ages, btu a buddy of mine booted it up a few days back and said a chunk of what you just called Cereberus DLC was not.
I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm merely indicating what I was going on. Wikipedia lists 6 paid DLCs and one upcoming, though it does list a couple of free DLCs I was unaware of (Including the Firewalker). I'd boot up the game, but I'm not sure I can be arsed to really check it out. |
There have been more paid DLC packs: There's Kasumi, the costumes, Overlord, and I believe 3 different gun packs.
Cerberus has Zaeed, a gun pack, Firewalker, and something else, I believe. |

Quote:
In regards to what KK said, I think getting the Cerberus pack is worth it, especially if you buy it new. A new game is like 5 bucks more, plus you get a full character mission. I mean, the Zaeed character would be 1200 points without it, so assuming you're going to download all the DLC, it's already paid itself off. |

I tried playing again and the controls don't feel as tight as they did on the Ps2 version. You know what might be cool? A new Hogs of War. |
ME2 is coming out for the PS3 in Jan

Here comes another case of PS3 fanboys enjoying an XB360 exclusive they dumped on months before. It's so fun seeing that.

Seriously fucking hope that this redesign doesn't break all of out avatar items. I love that fucking Earthworm Jim suit.

I can't see them redoing all those Avatar items for the new look. I think everything we currently have will be useless. Unless these new Avatars only come with Kinect.
|
They'd fucking better for the ones that cost money at the very least.

Son of a bitch, I'd better not lose my breakdancing boba fett.

My breakdancing Earthworm Jim was there first. :mad:

Boba Fett is way better.

Oh hell no. I think I might have to acquire a massive amount of money, use it to acquire the licensing rights for EWJ and the original Star Wars trilogy and then pay Capcom to do EWJ vs Star Wars and then whoop your ass as EWJ. :mad:

Monday Night Combat a fun game and serious contender for best live/rookie game of the year.
|
What do you mean "With Blacklight up there?". Blacklight is utter unadulterated shit.
|
i think he means its ridiculous that Blacklight is so far up.
|
Pretty sure I was clear about how terrible Blacklight is. Jesus that game is hyperbad.
Don't even know how you came to that conclusion, Has. You people try to hard. |

So basically Microsoft wants to make their version of the "iPod Touch/iPhone" similar to Apple and recently Sony (based on their rumored plans).
At the same time, everyone is doubting Microsoft Game Studios ability to make games seeing as they dropped support from PC to focus on Xbox while dropping studios during middle Xbox 360 years and lagging support of Games for Windows brand. |
Don't get how smart phones got to this point but whatever.
|
NHL 11 demo is out. Love the changes made between this year and last, presentation is much better imo.

PSP2 rumored to have multi-touch controls but instead of being located on the front like the Nintendo DS, it would be located on the back. Most likely won't have a 2nd analog stick/numb regardless if there is touch pad or not but it could rise in price to an Apple product range.
http://kotaku.com/5616590/psp-succes...touch-controls -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beyond Good & Evil 2 might pull a Duke Nukem Forever for development time since Ubisoft won't just toss money around to fund the game like the 1st one while also making sure the game is good enough to not be another flop. They want the game to have something unique similar to how Splinter Cell and Assassin's Creed had new things unlike other games. |
