Fallout 3 has been my game of this year. Played it through a couple of times and recently got the game of the year addition which is AWESOME!

Bioshok 2 looks like it's going to be seriously bad-arse as well!

[lefteyewilly]

I would so buy that if I thought I'd actually have 100 hours to dedicate to it.

sounds about right...I'm 7 hours in and i think i've completed less than 7% of the game.

[jAQUAN]

That would be 7% of the main story. You could earn a BSA in the time it would take to %100 the game.

So are you a 'after the wife goes to bed' gamer or 'I'll be in my office' type?

[silverx2]

I didn't see him come online till around 11pm so im going with the former.

[jAQUAN]

Right now I'm relegated to mornings on weekends.

MW2 is OFFICIALLY unplayable

Never would have been an issue if i could choose which server i was playing on, but as of right now i spent 2 hours last night on and off trying to get into a decent game but i got the MW2 aids.

Basically a whenever dinner settles and in need of beer type gamer.

steams having a huge sale right now for anyone that wants games like GTA4 and mirrors edge for under $10

wish i could get those kinds of deals on console games.

Really enjoying Assassins Creed 2. So far it fixes the redundancy of the first one by bringing a lot of what I loved from the Prince of Persia series including a really cool story that's a mix of Davinci Code and Dollhouse.

24 hours in. 16% done. It's gonna be a long time before i finish this one.

Seriously thinking of getting a Gamefly account after I beat AC2.

I was just watching GameSpot's 2009 game awards and the game of the year was "Demon's Souls" for PS3.

I've never even heard of it but it looks pretty sick. It's an action RPG with awesome graphics and some pretty neat online elements. Anybody play it yet?

[gerbick]

Yep. Demon's Souls is a gamer's game. Parts of it are repetitious, some are hideously mother****ing hard - I mean, like "Atari" and "You have to be in the ****ing zone" type of hard - but it's enjoyable. I've placed it to the side until I get time where I'm no longer looking for clients and/or taking online classes... but yeah. Demon's Soul is a real gamer's game.

Just starts off slow then GADOOSH! They're surprise ****ing ya'*

*Random Andrew Dice Clay reference of the month completed

[jAQUAN]

I think I'll be putting my blu-ray player on ebay and spending the difference on a PS3 JUST for god of war. I just hope the ps3 is as good at streaming netflix, amazon, npr, digital cameras etc.

This should be the next FK deathmatch game.

I got the demo for alien Vs Predator last night, what a frustrating experience that can be!

Playing as the aliens is awesome, you can walk on walls and ceilings so you can try and sneak up on someone to eat their face but its easy to get disoriented because your flipping around and upside down and sideways so much so fast its hard to keep track when your upside down or not

Playing as the predators is sweet too, especially once you get either the throwing blade or the laser cannon, going invisible turning on your heat vision and just sneaking around looking for marines to impale with your giant clawblades good times

Playing as a marine is the more scary and upsetting thing i have ever done in my entire life. sure you have an assault rifle but you also have a little gizmo that goes tick tick tick tick, and when something that isnt you starts getting near you its starts going bing bing bing faster and louder and faster and i start freaking the **** out where is he!? is it an alien? BING BNG BING. is it a predator ?!?!?! BING BING BING BING BING then i just randomly start shooting and hitting nothing and so now im runnning BING BING BING BING BING BING BING COME the **** on im screaming in my headset where are you leave me alone BING BING BING BING STab noise i look down and depending on what killed me this time there will either be an alien tail through my torso or a predators blade claws and im swearing up a storm. then 10 seconds later i spawn again look for a different gun rinse and repeat eventually killing an alien while its busy killing a predator before i hear bing bing bing again and start panicing

Plants Vs. Zombies for ipod touch is awesome.

I have a $15 itunes gift card minus the $2.99 I just spent. Any other games(or even apps) worth buying?

[silverx2]

those of you with a 360, perfect dark(nintendo 64 era) is going to be hitting XBL after an HD upgrade march 17 for 800ms points

this is maybe number 1 or 2 on my list of games ill buy this year right behind or ahead of starcraft2

seriously $10 for perfect dark with the added ability to play of xbl? insane.

[silverx2]

the thing i like most about the new battle.net so far is registering your games means if you lose the cd's or get a new computer you can download the game right from battle.net

God i wish they had this a decade ago, i know i've bought diablo 2 and starcraft at LEAST twice each.

[WannaBe_80z]

Plants Vs. Zombies is definitely worth the couple bucks it cost.
