Yeah. it's pretty hot. but while the online is really good for the most part, there's a glitch on one of the levels that you can skip half the course, and since it's a voting system for which track to play, you almost always end up in that track. it's really lame. also there's a few annoying things about the way local multiplayer is done, but aside from that it's a great entry. Still nto a good as MK ds, but imho way better than mk wii.

6 hours into Xenoblade Chronicles, pretty sweet game so far. It's a modern JRPG with all the better things of old JRPGs. It's looks pretty good, even in 480p...I mean sometimes it's a little PS2 in the textures and model faces, the draw distance is really nice though, has some loving touches the artists made and it runs smooth. The game itself is so far engaging and fun, and not too cliche believe it or not. Though it has an english voice cast, it is easy to adjust to and is not bad voice acting at all. Too early to tell if it's the best wii RPG as some have claimed or not, but off to a great start!

Did you ever play Ys Books 1 and 2? I'm not much of a JRPG fan, but those are two of my favourite games ever.

That's what Chronicles is, well a remastered version of both those games. I made it a ways through the first one to the final dungeon, er tower, but I haven't finished it yet. Maybe after I finish Mother 3 (fan translation...that game is amazing!) I'll get back to it.

Ah. I played the original Turbo Grafx versions on my Wii virtual console but I used to play them on Turbo Duo back in the day. I've made it to the very final boss of Book II but have yet to beat him.

No bad so far, so good. Looking forward to where the story goes and meeting more of the cast. I hope the choices I'm making really do affect the story like the game suggests.

They do. I heard the game is quite different storywise depending on the decisions you make.

Played some Skyrim the other night. Back on the Battlefield 3.

Beat The Witcher 2, highly fucking recommended!

Beat Walking Dead ep 1, not bad, solid B.

Got some Bayonetta achievements and played about a 1/3 of the way (after beating it on normal like a year or two ago) on easy .

Got back into Shadow of the Damned earlier this week and got maybe an hour and a half further along, must be a little past half way through it, haven't played it since last fall. I did notice Garcia's voice actor is 'The Scorpion' from Just Cause 2 (criminally underrated game, check it out if you haven't) which happens to be one of my favorite sandbox games in a long, long time.

Played some SMT Devil Survivor 2 and Mother 3 on the handheld front over the last few weeks - getting close to beating Mother 3 I think I may even be on the end boss battle.

Whew!

i like the custom servers on battlefield 3, as long as i don't get kicked for killing the wrong person. i've been playing a server thats only seine crossing with 1,000 tickets, using the DAO-12. i'm doing pretty good these days, i usually finish with 15-20 more kills than deaths....if i keep it up i'll be able to finally even out my k/d ratio. got a few triple kills last week. still pretty addicted, its way more fun that the internet, friends, going outside, band practice, etc.

sucks about the update, when it began to download immediately i thought it was free, but then they were all like, hey give us 50 bucks i'll probably get it though, early access to new maps means ill have the upper hand when theyre officially released.

Bought and am playing Lego Batman: DC Super Heroes 2. Probably the best Lego game to date. I didn't think I'd like the inclusion of voice actors, but it works well.

Holy shit, this thread's been dead for a while.

I downloaded Borderlands. I'm mostly done the game. Just working on the last couple of DLCs.

_________________

I played through Borderlands 2 twice recently. Loved it, but I got the dreaded "Badass Rank Level reset" glitch. yep, all the Badass rank perks I had were gone. I spent a lot of hours doing the various challenges to get all those points (almost 7,000).

Damn, never heard of that one, but that fucking sucks! I'd be so pissed. That's one thing I don't like about all these games where the save states can't be managed or have multiple copies. That's all great having an autosave but leave the option to make other saves.

Played a little Halo Reach, figured I should beat it before renting Halo 4, even if it's just a prequel...probably doesn't matter, not the biggest Halo fan at all, but I heard 4 is pretty good and I love a good FPS.

Well, Borderlands fucking pissed me off. The Secret Armory of General Knoxx had nothing but shit in it and I didn't even have time to look through it properly. What genius decided to have you plant the bomb and set the timer before looking through all the goodies?

I don't know if I'll even bother finishing the rest of the DLC

loved it. also, the best loot isn't in the armory. you have to fight clawmerax the invincible.

When we played through on Borderlands 1, my buddy knew a secret way to get in there without the timer starting. But yeah.. a lot of loot... only a few worthwhile things. Crawmerax was a fucking bitch, He dropped great loot though. Took 2 frinds and I plusr some guy we didn't know over an hour to beat him. And the guy we didn't know was either glitching or knew of a spot where he couldn't get hit. We died 30 or so times each and he stayed alive with Crawmerax never registering a hit. In Borderlands 2 there's an even tougher invincible end boss.
