Mass Effect 3, and with all the people complaining about the ending. The ending is not that bad, it is an ending of a series.

"I Am Alive" PS3

So far it's pretty cool.

cheebacheeba 04-06-2012 04:44 PM

I played the "I am Alive" demo myself...Man, I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for this game, the two trailers came out SO fucking long ago, and it looked like just my type of game.

I was a bit disappointed that it must have had some problems to be launched as a "downloadable only" title, but it's good that it's finally arrived - I was apprehensive at first thinking it wouldn't be as immersive as it could be, but that doesn't seem to be a problem.
Really nice looking game too...feels very alone and tense...

I really enjoyed the demo, will be buying as soon as I'm done with the game I'm currently playing through.

Angra 04-06-2012 04:57 PM

I was skeptic due to the low price. Was afraid it would turn out to be a very short game.

But so far i've been playing it for 4 hours and completed 10% of the game. Don't really have anything negative to say about it yet other than some minor movement problems at times when climbing.

cheebacheeba 04-06-2012 06:59 PM

Right now playing through the first "Lego Harry Potter" game.
Probably the best LEGO entry since the Star Wars one...didn't much like Indiana Jones to the point I didn't bother past a stage or two, and LEGO Batman was ok, finished it, but seemed like more of the same old.

While LEGO HP is the same type of game, there's definitely a lot more ways to interact with the environments and objects around you.
All of the LEGO games are at very least "fun" to play and give appropriate respect to the subject material, and this one's no exception.
I'm enjoying it, reminds me of simpler times in gaming.

Rodent's Revenge

It's an old windows game (like Solitaire or Minesweeper) where you play a little mouse that pushes blocks around to trap cats and turn them into cheese.

BEAST!

Despare 04-19-2012 07:53 PM

If I can find time to play these games, here's what's in queue heh.

Okami on the PS2
Deadly Premonition on the 360
Thief: Deadly Shadows on the XBox
Breath of Fire II on my phone

cheebacheeba 04-19-2012 08:17 PM

What's Okami actually like?
I don't even think I've ever seen footage of the game...

Deadly Premonition on the 360
If that's the game I'm thinking it is, it had a very interesting trailer...though, ended up being maybe one of the worst games I'd played in the last few years. Couldn't even bother past about an hour in.
Bit annoying, it looked like it had potential.

See a lot of people don't like Deadly Premonition because it's... like a B Movie. It has poor graphics and the gameplay is a little clunky but damn the story is great. Reminds me of Twin Peaks in ways haha.

Okami is fun, it's an action game with some cool little innovations. The art style is amazing IMO.

He does an ok job of explaining it...

"Civilization revolution" PS3

Answer me this. Where's the revolution??

Still good fun tho.

cheebacheeba 04-29-2012 03:42 AM

Started on 'Splosion Man.
It's fun, and frustratingly difficult at times.
Have had this one for a while now, will put some time in.

Before that, I tried to put on "Knights Contract".
Wow, what a boring game. Turned it off after about 15 minutes.


Next up is "Limbo", looking forward to this one.

RZR666 05-08-2012 06:21 AM

The Darkness II, taking my time with this one but it's quite good.

cheebacheeba 05-19-2012 05:01 AM

So at the moment I've played a few games on the WII, but the one I'm actually playing through is called "Mystery Case Files - The Malgrave Incident"
These kind of games, I always think they'll sound very boring when I explain them to people...

It's a "hidden item" type game.
For those of you that don't know what I mean, there's carious scenarios that are a bit like the "Where's Waldo/ly" series - You have to scan through a scene full of random items and objects, and find the objects that are indicated on a list.

In this game, they've actually introduced more of a storyline element to it which I quite like, and haven't contained the puzzles to the hidden item bits either, you have to explore, interact with the environment and actually make USE of some of the items you come across to interact with further scenes, solve other types of puzzles, or gain access to certain areas of the game.

I would say that this game is maybe the best example of the genre that I've seen...though I've not seen all that many.
It's fun, and relaxing to play.
No gaming skill really required - just observation and problem solving sewn into a mystery storyline.


I want to mention a demo I played on PS3 as well.
I think this one is going to be on 360 as well.
It's called "Spec Ops - The Line".
Wow...what a cool looking game...
I remember the original, or one of the originals on dreamcast actually pissed me off.
Not this one though.
Bit like uncharted meets COD.
VERY nice looking game, seems to have an alright storyline for a military shooter as well.
User friendly controls, good atmosphere, and as I said DAMN it's shiny.
Grab the demo.

FreddyMyers 05-19-2012 05:13 PM

There was a game on the original Playstation called Silverload. Pretty similar i think. Remember being scared as shit playing it. Cant imagine what it looks like nowadays. Speaking of PS.
Twisted Metal for PS3. If you played and loved Twisted Metal 2 youll love this. Hours of mindless, fun, carnage. Wish they came out with a new Jet Moto....

Fearonsarms 05-21-2012 07:39 PM

Cosmic Spacehead on the Sega Megadrive can't believe mine still works.

CrashRHCP 05-22-2012 06:11 AM

Bought Serious Sam complete pack and playing Serious Sam HD: First Encounter and Serious Sam: Double D.
Also Aliens Vs Predator (2010)

Eman Resu 06-10-2012 06:42 AM

Borderlands (360).

Picked it up for $8, thinking nothing of it...

It may be my favorite game in the last few years. It's so good.

Its like Fallout, mixed with XIII, and AWESOME weapon loot. AND brilliant co-op and online play.

HIGHLY recommended.

Geddy 06-14-2012 07:35 AM

Aliens Vs Predator (PS3)

Despare 06-16-2012 01:16 PM

Lone Survivor

Pretty crazy survival horror indie game, I'm interested to see how it ends. It's like one part NES, one part Cronenberg, and one part Lynch.

The Villain 06-16-2012 01:27 PM

Started playing Batman: Arkham City from the beginning again

Angra 06-16-2012 02:58 PM

That's a great game. :) Did you enjoy Arkham Asylum?

I'm currently playing Silent Hill HD Collection (Silent Hill 2)

Does that have the first one on there?

Unfortunately I rented the game so only played it through once. :( I adored it though, I actually preferred it to Arkham City.

1/3. Nope :( It only has Silent Hill 2 and 3
2. I didn't play them when I was younger. But in comparison to modern games the graphics are fine in my opinion. I'd recommend selecting new voices when you have the option to, I think the original drone on a little. Gameplay is still as frustrating as the PS2 version. :p But I'm a sucker for a story line, so I can dismiss most other game qualities as long as that keeps me interested. Hence why I thought Deadly Premonition was awesome. :D

ImmortalSlasher 06-20-2012 03:14 PM

Going to pick up Lollipop Chainsaw one of these days.

PiQLiQ 06-21-2012 02:44 AM

I'm playing Diablo3 and StarCraft 2 atm! ;]
And some DayZ!

murkwood 06-21-2012 03:46 AM

Diablo III all the way to Inferno... and maybe later some sprincles of Lollipop Chainsaw... not sure the game will be able to live up to the hype though... was also slightly disappointed by DIII...

I really badly want to play that game! Is it true it's similar to Bayonetta? I loved Bayonetta, but I don't want to get my hopes up. :D

realdealblues 06-29-2012 12:47 PM

I broke out my Retro Duo Twin and my old Nintendo cartridges last night...after going through them for a while I finally decided on playing The Legend Of Zelda. I haven't played it in close to 20 years so we'll see how much I can remember :)

ChronoGrl 07-02-2012 12:24 PM

Looking forward to Lollipop Chainsaw, but waiting for the price point to come down; doesn't sound as though it's worth the $60.

...

FINALLY just bought Batman: Arkham Asylum for the PS3... What a blast. Gorgeous graphics, fun game play... Love it so far.

Do you mean the very first one on the NES?Wow I haven't played that in years either will have to have a go now lol.:)

horrorwarehouse.com 07-05-2012 05:55 AM

Still Call Of Duty MW3 online, i haven't even played the story mode since getting it at Christmas, im addicted to the online play.

I have Arkham City here also that i must play.

cheebacheeba 07-30-2012 05:15 PM

Alice - Madness Returns
I enjoyed the first one when it came out, and this one seems like a good enough sequel. Keeps the theme and atmosphere of the original, but it's built on that a fair bit too - quite a few new additions.
It's weird, and it looks nice, as did the first.
My only complaint at the moment is that in staying true to the original they've made the game (at least at this point) seem just a little simplistic and linear.
Though, I am enjoying it and will play through to the end.

Bloodwolf13 07-31-2012 06:16 PM

What game I am playing
 
Dark meadow the pact it's a great game but it's more of a very dark kind of game then scary but the graphics are great and the bad guys well they look like something out of silent hill.
