PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii ????

Beav, Mass Effect is another great game that is purely single player.

I just thought up a name for a new Call of Duty clan: the Assault Infantry Death Squad. Try to guess what the clan tag would be.







Am I going to hell?

Scumbo, did you get a chance to play Prince Of Persia yet?

I can never get into the POP games. Is the new one worth a shot?

It's incredible to look at - I'm a sucker for pretty images and this one delivers. The game play is fun but it's fairly basic and it is very difficult to actually die, I can't remember her name but you have this woman sidekick who always saves you if you fall off a cliff or something - it's both helpful and kind of irritating at the same time.

I've had a lot of fun playing it though - Scumbo had posted a trailer for it earlier (mostly because it had a Sigur Ros song in it) and I was wondering if he had actually got around to trying it.

I had never played a POP game previous to this one and I’m impressed so far

I loved the last 3 Prince of Persia games. One of my favorite series - along with Sly Cooper. I never did get to play Sly 3 though.

 

[u2popmofo]

I haven't played it yet, Elfa.

I bought Pure a few days ago because it was on sale for half price at Best Buy this week. I haven't had a chance to play it more than for about 30 minutes yet, but it pretty much seems like an ATV version of the SSX series, which I'm cool with.

The POP games are pretty to look at but ultimately they bore me.

Len Wiseman: Gears of War to Be a Trilogy of Movies - Xbox

Not sure what I think of this.

Len Wiseman: Gears of War to Be a Trilogy of Movies - Xbox

Not sure what I think of this.

Yikes. I can't believe they're moving along with this over the Peter Jackson-led Halo trilogy, which would be immensely more satisfying than this group doing Gears.

The first Halo movie would be 'Fall of Reach,' the second would be the first game, and the third would be 2 and 3 combined, as it should have been.

Resident Evil 5 Demo Available Now for Download - Xbox

As promised, Capcom released today the western demo of Biohazard (Resident Evil) 5. The demo (472.65 MB) is set within two stages from the beginning of the game – Assembly Place and Shanty Town -- featuring plenty of co-operative action, shooting, hordes of bloodthirsty infected Majini enemies and a few puzzles to round out the action. The demo has three levels of co-op play: single-player with AI support, two-player split-screen on a single Xbox 360 and two-player across Xbox Live.



The Halo Wars demo is supposed to be up next week.

lots of effeminate men, kick ass women and Japanese role playing goodness:

IGN Video: Final Fantasy XIII PlayStation 3 Trailer - Gameplay Reveal Trailer

The colours children! Look at the colours!

 

[LJT]

I know I'm a Final Fantasy fanboy and all but that looks way fuckin cool....I just hope the characters/story are better this time round than XII...they were such a non-entity in the game especially Vaan who was meant to be the lead of sorts, he didn't even need to appear in the game for the crappy story to work...made it feel kinda pointless.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

as dull as the story was I found the game-play miles ahead of the last couple of games. I actually think it may be one of my favourites next to III and VII...

 

[LJT]

I have a very soft spot for VIII being my first...plus I still think it had some of the best fmv sequences in any of the games...the carnival scene at the end of the first disc, the two gardens going into battle, any of the stuff on the space station...oh yeah and when your being chased by the giant robot spider and the opening sequence fighting Seifer.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

VIII was good as well, you're right...

I wasn't very crazy about IX - the cutesy characters bugged me and X was alright but nothing special and that stupid Bliztball side game pissed me off

I haven't played X-2 or XI.

 

[LJT]

Neither have...no interest in MMORPGs....they seem ultimately pointless...I like an endpoint to rpgs, story drives them.

I kinda liked IX though...cutesyness doesn't bother me, I've kinda got used to it since most games I play are Japanese.

You should check out any of the Shin Megami Tensei games especially the Persona ones in the series, really different for RPGs and much darker in content than most. (all for PS2 hasn't been a next gen one yet).

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I've heard people talk about them, I will check them out

 

[redhotswami]

I had the entire song and choreography to the opening of X-2 memorized. :fuckyeah: I used to be able to bust that shit out on cue. Now I hardly remember it.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

All that J-Pop frightened me...

 

[redhotswami]

Your Leafs get shaken quite easily.


ZING!

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I don't even know what that means...

Did you play any of the older ones on the NES or SNES?

Ah yes, the Marsh Cave was like a 2nd home to me!

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

[redhotswami]

Nsw?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

lol

the first one was awesome back in it's day, I remember playing it for hours...

 

[redhotswami]

[elevated_u2_fan]

it was on your dreamcast? I didn't know it could do stuff like that...

I'm pretty sure you can get the old school NES and SNES games on the Wii, no?

 

[redhotswami]

[elevated_u2_fan]

I hear that

The Elf King guy was named Astos btw

 

[UberBeaver]

So I was getting kinda bored of Oblivion, cause the shit just keeps going and going, and it's sorta boring at times cause the fights take forever, and then I discovered you can adjust the difficulty. Now that shit's piking up. I am just dominating fools and clearing out ruins. I'm enjoying the game again. w00t!!!
