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!
 

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.

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.
