    Actually thought the game was just QTE and puzzle, who do you even fight? Jigsaw? Amanda?

    Space Invaders Extreme 2- Still prefer the presentation of the first game, but the revisions made are very well done.

    You have a key inside your body that is supposed to mean freedom for any inmate that can get to you. Combat is just like the Silent Hill games except there is a BIG delay between the button press and the action. The swings are EXTREMELY slow as well and as far as I can tell block does nothing. You still get damaged.

    I cannot comprehend how a person can sit there and play a game based on a shitty movie series, yet complain about its quality.

  4. What the fuck does it matter to you?

  5. Risen - So far decent enough, only froze one me once lol

    Battling my way through vultures, wolves and pigs. Pigs are evil.

  6. Got back into playing shooters more than the rest of genres out there and have been having a blast.

    Popped open Daioujou, Mushihime and Ibara and just sat there for several hours playing on the arcade stick. Good times. BOMBAAA!

    Since you're going to play Homecoming, I'd go with Dead Space afterward. It's quite impressive -- I really doubt you'll be disappointed -- and you'll finish it in time for MW2.

    I'm playing Borderlands. Good game. Co-op is a blast, but I'm enjoying the 1P game just as much.

    Evony - My wife signed up for this some time ago because someone mentioned it somewhere and she doesn't go to places like this where their bullshit ads aren't omnipresent, so she didn't know what the deal was behind this. For a larf I decided to see what the deal was behind this game. As it turns out there is no actual fucking game in Evony - you watch time meters deplete and numbers increase. You don't see battles, you see the tabulated results of the battles in an in-game mail. Every town layout is identical without concern for how you place the structures within them. There is a daily item you can use to randomly win a prize, and literally everyone's resulting prize which they collect is plastered to your chat window as well as the top of the screen and takes precedence over any text you might happen to be reading. When you use said item the game also tries to get you to add Evony to your browser bookmarks. You can only build one thing at a time and can't queue anything. You can only steal and get stolen from - nobody, not even the NPC cities, can ever be destroyed. To hasten anything in the game you are reminded that you can spend real money to make the time bar deplete quicker. If you want to restart the game and be rid of the cancer for good, the game prompts you to input your password twice and then tells you that the feature is unavailable.

    Civilization 4 Beyond The Sword - After "playing" Evony a bit I was reminded that I do like strategy games when they're actually good, and my wife suggested for us to get Civ4 some time ago but I passed. Now that it is easy to get the game for $20 new we went ahead with it, and what a difference this game is from Civ1 (the only other Civ I played). For my first game I won the Space Race. For my second game I had my capital city razed by barbarians within 20 turns. For my third game I played a mod which my wife found which is based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms (which you can find details about here) and played one game of that with a win secured by score. If you ever wanted to play a R3K game without spending weeks to actually complete one, I recommend getting the game and this mod. For a simple fan project they really did cram a lot of new content into the game and made alterations to make all the additions functional. BTS on its own is good, too.

    Lost Planet 2 demo thing - Downloaded demo. Booted up game. Played one match. Spent 5 minute session performing the following loop: spawn, walk around looking for enemy, get shot from behind by someone that wasn't on the radar, watch camera pan around corpse while waiting for respawn counter to countdown to zero, repeat. Deleted demo. It's a chicken and egg question as to whether I never play these games because I suck at them or if I suck at these games because I never play them. Regardless, it was an exercise in aggravation as all of these FPS/3PS shooters are for me and I don't know how all you assholes have spent the past ten years and will spend the next ten forseeable years perpetually beating your heads into each other and respawning and having a gay old time in the process. I don't get how this is never old for some people. Speaking of which.

    IIDX Empress - Yeah, fuck you too.

  9. Lost Planet 2 demo thing - You Are Doing It Wrong.

    Did you not climb inside the mudkip?

  10. Add Borderlands to my list. I have too many games to play and not enough time.
