Only 11 and a half months to go.
Holiday game sales have started! woot!
Steam has discounts on a few hundred games right now. Some prices are as low as 49 cents :bulb: Every day they select a handful and give those titles ridiculous discounts. Like Super Meat Boy is under $4 right now, I got all the Prince of Persia games for under $20, and I think Bad Company 2 is going for around $6. Next round of discounts start in 2 hours.
If you find something in on Steam you are interested in (but its not a daily deal) don't purchase it until the last day or so of the sale, a lot of times the games that are discounted for the entire sale find themselves discounted more during one of the 24 hours deals during the sale.
Super Meat Boy is fun :up:
I picked up Monkey Island 1 & 2, along with KOTOR.:up:
Kinect is fun :D
Got a few games for Christmas, so far played her Kinect and Donkey Kong Returns (Wii) and Fable III (360) - both very fun.
We've been playing New Super Mario Wii a lot - the kids also got Donkey Kong Returns (and a ton of other games, because I'm just cool like that)
King Arthur...
Kinect IS a blast. It's killing me via exhaustion...or a heart attack...which ever comes first.
Apparently, there is a fighting game that is played with Kinect...as a prior martial arts guy...this could be fun!
Played Charades over Christmas. :p
I've never seen that for sale. what console is that on? ;)
I bought it through Steam for about $5 which included all DLC.
So far I am enjoying the game, it is very pretty to look at and runs very well on my laptop. It has similarities to the Total War series with the addition of more RPG elements - you can upgrade all units when they level up but they only level up if you use them so it is important to use all your armies. There is also Magic available which adds another dimension to the battle scenarios.
I actually enjoy the battles in this game.
So far I'd give it 8/10
Might end up spending more time on the PS3. Discovery of the master signing key was announced today, and it can't be patched out because of the bootloader. Only way to block this is with a hardware revision (why there are so many PSP models). So the value and usefulness of my PS3 just went up, again.
To quote one of the groups that worked on this: "There is absolutely no doubt in our mind that the PS3 lasted as much as it did due to OtherOS. The security really is terribly broken."
Sony throw the community a bone with OtherOS, it kept everyone happy. Then they freaked and removed that option, that decision has done nothing but bite them in the ass ever since.
I've been playing Fallout: New Vegas this past week.thenSpoiler:with a Ballistic Fist. They should have put their skill points in Not Getting Punched In The Face.Spoiler:
Vegas would have been so amazing if it wasn't so glitched up. Surpassed fallout3 in every way
Only had two or three freezes, not as bad as I remember with FO3. I'm playing the console version though.
Spoiler:
Yes Man has to be my favorite character though. "And I'm not just saying that because I have to!"
I got F1 2010 for Christmas. It's not bad, and considering the last Formula 1 game I played was Grand Prix 2 it was a nice chance to get out the ol' steering wheel again.
I have Fallout 3 for pc and it works flawlessly for me. It took me two months of just trying to get Vegas to work and even now I sacrafice visual quality just to get it to run smoothly. I have run both the Mr. House and NCR endings though... I can't wait to start Ceasers Legion but Yesman isn't a path I think I'm going to take lol
Finished Fable III and .... (ending spoiler)Spoiler:
Yeah I liked it, if you like that style of game. I wandered off and never finished either of the predecessors (trying to play both simultaneously was probably not a smart move), but have always liked the series, thinking of going to go back now and at least finish 2 (1 is on the PC).
Dead Space. Can't stop. Monsters. Babies. Baby monsters. KACHOOOWWW BVRERRRRINK kaCHUNK dink dink dink SMASH drip drop drip drop
Also, Beat Hazard and Plants vs Zombies.
I'm planning to purchase Shenmue II for the Xbox soon and attempt to play it on the X360 (unless the game can be brought over XBL but we'll see).
Yu Suzuki recently stirred the fanboy pot with more Shenmue III related gossip. Although I doubt the game will ever see the light of day, one can still dream. If only Sega would just sell the damn franchise or take a punt. :sour:
Mass Effect 2 (again...and again...and again) got al of the playable down loadable content...gods I can't stop.
Can't wait for ME3!
Bought Patrician IV with Xmas money and its not installing :(
Is trying to install DirectX and that's failing to install, no option to skip the DirectX install but the install is failing and can't figure out why :(. If I go online to Microsoft's site and download updates to DirectX directly its still not installing. Dxdiag says DirectX 11 is installed.
Has anyone here played Alan Wake yet? I need a game to play on the X360 as I really fancy getting into a story and focusing less on the Kinect/Online Call of Duty action. Don't get me wrong i enjoy both but you can't beat a little single player action and a bloody good story line.
Anyone got any ideas? I'm open to anything really, providing it ticks the criteria.
^Have you tried Metro 2033?
Single player, heavy focus on story, which is pretty good so far. (I ain't finished yet)
It's very immersive, has a more realistic slant to it.
The realism makes it more difficult too, no hand-holding in this game.
Fascinating game though, well worth a look.
(Never played Alan Wake so can't compare it)
P.S. Game has been out awhile so the price is reduced.
Am really struggling with my PC, DirectX is just not working correctly it seems. May end up formatting my PC as I can't find any way to simply do a clean re-install of DirectX.
Cross-post from the British Inflation thread but I don't think I'll be buying any new PC games from GAME in a while. They've used the opportunity of the VAT 2% increase to increase their 2 for £25 offer to a 2 for £30 one.
I enjoyed Alan Wake quite a bit. I thought the story was interesting and the gameplay was fun. It's patterned after a television series, so instead of levels you get "episodes" each with their own climaxes/cliffhangers and recaps of previous episodes. I thought it was a pretty cool idea. The only negatives, in my opinion, were that the facial animations were horrible and that, many times, when you started in a new area, you were left without your flashlight and weapons and had to find and collect them all over again - sometimes that was fun, since it would add a lot of tension with these things chasing you in the dark and no way of protecting yourself, but the rest of the time it was frustrating. All in all, I thought it was a fun game.
The best storyline in an xbox game would have to be Mass Effect and its sequel (2 being the better of the games), but I don't know many 360 owners who haven't played them, so I assume you have, too.
Thank you for the idea folks, I think i'll have to check out both Alan Wake and Mass Effect. :):up:
I hate Monaco! I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. :mad:
Front wing, meet wall. Almost every effing lap.
In what game? The latest FIA F1 incarnation, whatever that maybe?
Yup F1 2010.
Got through the first few races alright, but Monaco is just killing me. Think I'll just start the race last position, crash in a big fireball and go to next race. But that would mean a set back on the challenge to beat my team mate (Jarno Trulli, Lotus You can only pick one of the 3 new teams for long career and have to work your way up)
