sounds like GTA vice city. I think you could find it in the showers at the police station in the city. I'm considering picking this one up, I enjoyed SR2.

The purple dildo, it could be found in Grand Theft Auto. I was wrong it was in San Andreas. I looked it up according to the net it can be found in the showers in the Los Santos Police Department headquarters in Pershing Square, Los Santos.

I have the game and have been wanting to play it, but other games got in the way. I need to sit down and play through it.

I've actually been replaying GTA4 lately. Fun game - going for the "Liberty City Minute" achievement where you finish the story line in under 30 hours :)

Still working on the Witcher 1 in bursts. It frustrates the crap out of me because the autosave feature is piss poor...45 minutes between saves. I've had to learn to reach over and hit the quick-save button every 5 or so minutes. It is like working on an office document :td

I thought it was going to be tough...it isn't. I'm halfway through the game at 6hours 30minutes in :r

As long as you only do the story line, take cabs everywhere, and skip cutscenes you'll make it. It is 30 hours of played time - not just 30 hours straight.

My friend got in the beta about 3 weeks ago so I've seen the gameplay. It's still in very much a beta stage right now, but I'm hoping it gets polished up by release. If they fix the bugs and graphic glitches it will definitely be a HUGE contender in the MMO market. Great gameplay, storyline, and overall immersion in the SW universe.

I have to say, back in the day I tried playing Assassins Creed and thought the controls were awful, and they are, but glitches aside what a great game.

Im not quite finished but definitely very fun. I will say the controls can at times frustrate the piss out of you but it's pretty awesome.

Can't wait to get through this first one and onto the other two.

Bill the 2nd one is 100x's better than the 1st one, I couldn't play more than 2-3 hours on the 1st one.....just a little heads up for ya.

What irratebass said, the second one's controls and play is so much smoother and better. It's actually pretty fun! I just picked up Brotherhood off Amazon last week to play through.

Finally picked up a PS3 on craigslist, a fat 80Gb, and no, not the backwards compatible one. It came with GTA IV and Black Ops. So what's good in the FPS and RPG genres? Mainly looking for stuff I can find cheap on Amazon and craigslist. A co-worker said I can have last year's Madden when the new one comes out in a couple of weeks. Other than that, I'll pick up the Tiger Woods Masters game when I find a used copy, and SOCOM 4 (my favorite PS series) as well. Not much interest in driving, dancing or "goofy" games, I have the Wii for the cartoonish stuff.

Must have games in the FPS & RPG Genre:

Uncharted 1 & 2
Red Dead Redemption
Resistance 1& 2
Dragon Age: Origins
Assassin's Creed 2 & Brotherhood


That's off the top of my head and all of these should be relatively cheap.

AC 1 not worth it? Also, any opinions on Fallout 3 or Borderlands?

I couldnt play AC:1 it bored me and I was very disappointed in it.

AC: 2 is 1000X's better.

Fallout 3 is an amazingly DEEP long game, Well worth your $ and it's only $10 or something now.

Borderlands was ok, but careful hooking up with people online that have higher skill points than you, because what they kill goes into your skill points....so say you are a level 5 and you meet someone how is a level 15-20 you go and and that person does all the killing, but you get the points.......so when you go back to your single player campaign you are a much higher level than your enemies and it makes for boring gameplay.....just my :2

L.A. NOIRE....great F*n game.
Bioshock 1 & 2

Dante's Inferno
Tom Clancy's Las Vegas series

Trust me, I was frustrated too. I signed up for the beta the VERY HOUR the email came through that it was open for sign up. Then my friend who signed up a few months ago was the first to get in the beta :p A month and a half later I'm the only other one who has gotten an invite. I see them opening the beta up more and more here soon though, they're needing to stress test this like what...

Fallout 3 was really good, once I got a "carry bagillions of everything" mod installed. Pacing was admittedly a bit slow for me. I'm much less inclined to spend hours wandering around the wasteland than I used to be.

I positively ADORE Borderlands. According to steam I've got hundreds of hours logged. now with the announcement of Borderlands 2 I've actually started from scratch again as a goof.

Some DLCs (Knoxx, Dr. Zed) are really exceptional as well. The Claptrap DLC was cute, but not really notable. Mad Moxxie was pretty stupid for a single player. But it DOES add an item bank, which is really nice.

One or two of them were pretty difficult. Youtube them if you get stuck, I know its cheating but after several attempts (I think Il Duermo) I had too.

Brotherhood's got a similar thing, but its not mandatory to beat the game.

Yeah Bill, I got tired of the tombs myself and finally just stopped trying and just stuck to the main storylines and enjoyed myself much better....I'm not all about 100% completion of a game just as long as I finish it.

Picked up Deus Ex. It's... tough. Just starting out though. Hopefully I'll get the knack of it. You can't quite play it as an FPS and stealth in the beginning is harder than the Thief games by a remarkable margin.
