Anybody played Cave Story?

Wow! Awesome download for a free game. If you get it, make sure you download the English translator to go along with it.

Just picked up NCAA football 12 for Xbox. Look me up as KneoMattrix if you would like to play.

I like 1 & 2. Almost finished with 2, but these Assassin's Tombs are just ridiculous! Takes away from the game IMHO.

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.

Just read Modern Warfare 3 will support 32 players!

Bring on the MAYHEM!!!! Time for me to suck and get mauled by a bunch of kids again

madwilliamflint · 08-30-2011, 10:28 AM

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.

irratebass · 08-30-2011, 10:34 AM

I really want to check that game out Michael.

It's too early to tell for me yet but it looks like they really NAILED it. I suspect the "sufficiently hard in the beginning" is going to reflect a demand on actual thoughtful gameplay later on. The hacking system is f'ing cool as hell.

The first mission after the intro sequence allows you to choose your rules of engagement, whether to go "lethal or nonlethal" and "ranged or close combat". It's really quite something.

irratebass · 08-30-2011, 10:46 AM

My buddy picked it up last week and he has been raving about it, we are both fans of the 1st two games as well.

madwilliamflint · 08-30-2011, 11:08 AM

I missed the first one (2? o.O) Not sure if the originals stand up to the test of time.

Snagged Madden 12 yesterday for PS3. It's been awhile since I've played a madden football game. I'm enjoying it quite a bit so far!

I've got that as well, waiting to beat brotherhood before I start it though.

VirtualSmitty · 09-05-2011, 07:36 AM

Deus Ex is ok, but it's not grabbing me. I think once Dead Isand and space marine release tomorrow i'll shelve it, just doesn't seem quite like the older ones.

irratebass · 09-05-2011, 08:02 AM

I want a review of Dead Island, some Gamestops here are doing midnight releases, which is kind of impressive.

Joystiq was the most critical, most places seemed to really like it. We'll see tomorrow
