Good.

Re: Games thread!
 

I am addicted to the new Call of Duty game. I hope my headset is delivered today or tomorrow. My headset broke and I hate not being able to talk to my buddies or call out where I just got shot at.

Re: Games thread!
 

Wow, guess I'm old school. We have a PS2 and Wii. Back in my PC gaming days I was heavily into FPS, Doom, Quake, Half-life. Now I'm more into games requiring a little more thought.
PS2:
Gave up on TW PGA Tour when they dropped Feherty and McCord.
Love Madden, but refuse to play 2010 with the Anti-Christ as the QB for my Vikings. I know I could change the roster, but I like to play using the actual roster for the current season.
The SOCOM series is one of my favorites on the PS2. FPS elements, but on a lot of missions, you can't just blast everything.
The wife and I had a lot of fun with Gladius. It's a good mix of RPG and turn-based arena combat.
Champions: Return to Arms was fun, but suffered from occasional lockups.
Hot Shots Golf Fore is fun, but frustrating playing the higher level NPCs.
GH 3, Aerosmith, and Metallica are great. I suck, but I'll play until my hands start cramping.

Wii:
We haven't bought a lot of games, as they're more expensive, but Wii Sports is a lot of fun, as well as Deca Sports I & II, although I detest Curling and Petanque :rolleyes:

Any suggestions? Might be open to trades for smokes if any of you on PS3 are looking to offload some PS2 games, too.

Re: Games thread!
 

Recently picked up Borderlands(360) and super mario brothers (wii). Both are fantastic games.

Played mario last night with two other friends and had a blast! If you enjoyed any of the old mario games for the nes or super nes you will love this one. :tu

Re: Games thread!
 

I got NHL '10 and new CoD game. Both fantastic.

Anybody play NHL '10 online for PS3??

Re: Games thread!
 

Yep, both great games. Borderlands i've had a ton of fun with and will probably pick up the DLC after the holiday season. And the New Super Mario Wii game is fantastic, excellent gameplay and fun multiplayer.

Re: Games thread!
 

I'm getting close to the end of Assasin's Creed 2. This is a huge game. I am trying to get all the extra goodies done before the end, but I can't find more than half of the feathers. It has been an interesting story line but I have a feeling there will be no end to set uo AC 3.

Re: Games thread!
 

I finished it, there will be :tu It is a massive game, I took my time with it, prob a good 40 hours total to finish. Really awesome though, I like the fact you can freeplay when it's done to go back and do the things you might have skipped or missed.

Re: Games thread!
 

I never found the last hammer weapon and the last cape-I think the Auditore cape. And I cannot get the last seal, damn it...I just am not fast enough.

Re: Games thread!
 

You need to collect 50 feathers for the last weapon and 100 feathers for the Auditore cape. And that last tomb was tough, took me a few tries. There is a neat easter egg in that last tomb, if push the switch and look into the water for a moment a giant squid shows up :r

Re: Games thread!
 

sorry, got it for 360...but is a great game :tu

I will eventually get Assassins Creed 2, but am too busy with CoD right now

Re: Games thread!
 

Can anyone recommend a good RPG for PC other than WoW? I dont really want an MMORPG, just more of an excellent RPG in and of itself...

Re: Games thread!
 

If you ever get out to california I will let you get that last seal for me. Tomorrow I will look for more feathers and finish off the assasin contracts. Those are fun.

Re: Games thread!
 

An easy way to find feather is to find a high spot and switch on the eagle vision. They have a gold blur, makes it easier to find.

Re: Games thread!
 

Any one get the new DLC for BORDERLANdS!?

Re: Games thread!
 

Not yet, still busy with MW2 and AC2. Did you?

Re: Games thread!
 

yes sir =]

Re: Games thread!
 

Mass Effect, from Bioware. Sci-fi RPG, but without a doubt the best RPG I've ever played, hands down. And I've been playing RPGs for years. I've gone through the game 3x now, playing 3 different characters. About 40-50 hrs game time each run through. Each was a different experience. Awesome game, and relatively cheap now since it's over a year old.

DragonAge: Origins is out now, also from Bioware. Supposed to be even better than Mass Effect, but the system requirements are too high for me right now. :(

Re: Games thread!
 

I think I will pick up Dragon Age today.

Re: Games thread!
 

I downloaded the Dante's Inferno demo on PSN and it is sick. I wasn't too interested in it before but now I think i'm definitely gonna pick it up. It's pretty much god of war meets the crusades.

Re: Games thread!
 

Seems a friend of mine didn't take kindly to the fact that I hadn't picked up MW2 for the PS3 so he's mailing me a copy :r

Guess I'll see ya'll in the trenches soon.

Re: Games thread!
 

Amazon is running a great deal on ACS2 today:

Re: Games thread!
 

Any one still rocking Borderlands? Seems like Cod mwf 2's multiplayer just doesnt interest me too much and would much rather start a new Char in Borderlands.. Anyone games?

360= Guitarman07

Re: Games thread!
 

Whats bothering you about MW2 multiplayer? Is it the insane amount of glitches and hacks? The patch that broke more than it fixed? The infinite ammo and no reload virus?

Truth be told it's starting to lose it's luster for me too. Just got the GTA Liberty City stories, gonna take a break and work through that for awhile.

Re: Games thread!
 

You nailed it!
And for one I'm not a guy to sit and play it Everyday, All day, every chance i get... the hell with that dedication lol, I would rather rock some Borderlands a bit here or there, etc.

Re: Games thread!
 

I'm finishing up the play through 2 on Borderlands with my level 50 hunter.

I might be around later tonight, wouldn't mind playing.
Poutyscottbaio on 360.

Re: Games thread!
 

Right on, keep me posted, I just started up a Hunter, Have a lv. 50 Soldier

Re: Games thread!
 

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for Wii.

This game doesn't look all that great, but it plays like a B!tch!

Re: Games thread!
 

Going through FF12 for the first time.
I'm definitely not used to the new battle system, but atleast it will prepare me for 13...

Re: Games thread!
 

I got this for Christmas. It's pretty engrossing, will probably tide me over until Mass Effect 2 and NMH2 :banger

Re: Games thread!
 

I think I am 3/4 way through it and not sure I need a second playthrough. I have done all the side quests. It is a fun game. I ordered Left4Dead2...I had a lot of discounts after christmas shopping at amazon and got the game for 9.99...cool

Re: Games thread!
 

:tpd: +1

I picked this up as a Christmas gift for the kids. Guess who spends the most time with the light saber, though? :D

I was really looking forward to this, but my PC doesn't meet minimum specs :( Ah well, guess I'll just wait for ME2

Re: Games thread!
 

ME2 should have similar requirements. May be time to upgrade the vid card, there are plenty of deals on good cards right now.

Re: Games thread!
 

My vidcard (GeForce 8600GT 256MB) & RAM (3GB) should be good, it's my processor: DragonAge says it needs dual core, and all I got is Athlon64 3400+. :( From what I've read, ME2 is on the same engine as ME, right? I'm hoping that's the case...!

Re: Games thread!

Re: Games thread!
 

Pre-ordered BioShock2 today and then took a look at Dante's Inferno. It looks good but I think I will wait for reviews.

Re: Games thread!
 

There is a demo available for Dante's Inferno on both xbox and ps3.. I was on the fence too, but after giving the demo a go I was sold. Plus it's made by the same studio that did Dead Space, doubt it will turn out bad.

Re: Games thread!
 

Red Dead Redemption and Splinter Cell: Conviction are both coming out in the next quarter and will be def. titles I pick up.

Been a while since I've been on CA..

I can't get into Borderlands. Just isn't any fun. Hooked on MW2 but as others stated there's too many glitchers and boosters.

Re: Games thread!
 

I tried the MAG beta today. Can't say I was too impressed :(

Darksiders hit shelves tomorrow. That ought to be good :tu

Re: Games thread!
 

Been playing borderlands with a few friends online. Got the expansion "Neds zombie island (or whatever it was called) almost complete. Beat Ned but still got to go back and do a few smaller missions.

Re: Games thread!
 

Darksiders is awesome. Think God of War meets Legend of Zelda :banger

Re: Games thread!
 

I have the greatest hits edition of Prince of Persia but I can't find anywhere that*the game was released as a GH?* Did you guys have seen it before or its just me who bought something that doesn't exist?

Re: Games thread!
 

Welcome to Cigar Asylum. Head on over to the new inmate forum and introduce yourself. We'd love to get to know you and find out what cigars you enjoy.

Re: Games thread!
 

I WAS playing it until my Mac's HD went out on me. I didn't have the Windows partition backed up and there went my progress. I finished the game and did plenty of side quests with a level 40+ Hunter. When I get another copy of windows maybe we can get in a match?

Re: Games thread!
 

I've been playing on the 360.

Re: Games thread!
 

Well then, maybe I'll need to pick up a copy for the 360. What else do you play on the 360?

Also, are the bugs I've read about in online play for Borderlands fixed yet? I read that people were losing their stats when going online in multiplayer matches.

Re: Games thread!
 

Been known to play Halo 3, the new Modern Warfare, and Gears of War mostly.
