I'm currently saving up for Final Fantasy XIII. Hoping it's good but it seems to be getting mixed reviews. Either way only thing I really want is a game with a good story. After that I'll probably end up trading in Heavy Rain and FFXIII for Dead Rising 2 when it comes out in August. Quote:
You'll like it. Very deep story and fun gameplay. Though there are some things they could have done better. Anyway great game overall. Quote:
Also to XBOX owners if you turn on the family settings on your X-Box you can stop all voice chat. Everyone automatically gets muted. It really is a wonderful feature, I wish PS3 had that but instead I usually get releagated to plugging in my mic and leaving it on the floor with my mic set to mute so I can't be heard. Lol, $5 or $10 on PSN and people are shelving out big bucks for it? Got to love collectors. I still have my disk but they're scratched to hell.

I played the demo as well, this is a game both me and my wife can play at the same time. I use the controller and she loves trying to solve the puzzles/mystery and follow the story line.

I've been playing the new Batman game and while it's pretty good I'm quickly getting bored with it. It's worth renting.

Oh so you did end up picking that one up. That is a disappointing review. Hmmm... Let me say Uncharted 2 is probably in my top 5 games of all time at this point. I am nearly done and it was been a wild ride. I would also like to say it has been nearly two weeks since I have played or touched MW2, I feel like I should get a pin for that.

re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
I play a lot of online FPS games and I get SO sick of little kids thinking it's hilarious to hack or team kill or just do stupid shit overall. I play Battlefield Heroes and Combat Arms and even though those games are free, I would pay extra to have a 21+ server to play on.

Got Batman through Gamefly. Glad I didn't buy it. Don't get me wrong the graphics are cool and the story is well done, it's just getting repetitive to me.

I just ordered Assassins Creed 2 for 36.99 new on newegg.com, it was a pretty good deal. I wouldn't have bought it but I saw it on Spoofee and said what the hell lol.

Always always buy used you could have got that game for $9 plus shipping. Half.com / Video Games / Assassin's Creed (Xbox 360, 2007) You could have got it new from Amazon for $18 plus shipping. Amazon Oh geez I just saw the 2, that was a good deal my bad!

re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
Yeah it sure does. It looks like it would be fun to play.
I remember how awesome the trailers looked for All Pro Football 2K8....but after playing it a few times it wasn't close to what i was use to, Madden. Like it or hate it, Madden i think definatley sets the standard and people i think have more fun playing with their favorite pro players and teams. Thats why these games don't do as well, but they are fun nonetheless.

This series was the best video game football I think but EA sport had to go and buy the entire NFL license so that squashed that franchise of games. Amazon.com: ESPN NFL Football: Xbox: Video Games

BTW- If you have Final Fantsay 7 for PS1 hanging around the house it is selling for a mint right now on eBay. I found my copy last night.

I bought the wife Sonic and Sega All Stars racing for the PS3. It's basically a Mario Kart rip off, but it was fun all the same.
