Moar liek balk Friday, am i rite? As in, I balk at all of these deals. Of course, I've been weak all year long and bought everything i've wanted on day 1. Hopefully amazon will put up a deal on AC2 tomorrow, that's the only winter game I want that I haven't gotten yet.
 
[quote name='CaptainJoel']Worse of this gen? Have you played Bullet Witch? That is single handedly my worst gaming experience this gen. That game is craaaaap.

I haven't tried out Terminator yet, but I'm actually glad I didn't pick it up yesterday.

And yeah, it's actually not as good as I thought.. I just spent a little more time with it and I guess I just thought it was good in the heat of the moment last night. It's lost it's sheen today. I got it for free, though.. so I don't have a problem with it :D

Curving bullets is really fun.[/QUOTE]
Damnation is far worse than Bullet Witch.
 
I'm at the tail end of Resident Evil 2 and it's been great, just as good as I remember it from 11 years ago. Don't really know what I'm gonna play next after I finish it though, I'm hoping to snag a copy of Rock Band Unplugged for $7 at Target tomorrow morning though since I really enjoyed the demo of it.

I totally forgot that game existed, I really thought it got canned. I just checked out a review for it and eeeee, do not want.
 
Rock Band Unplugged is really good. I think I might get another copy since mine is a "not for resale" version.

Dragon Age is so good - about 20 hours in now.
 
Morning GGT'ers. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.

Here's the result of my b2g1 adventure: Street Fighter IV, Resistance 1, and Valkyria Chronicles. I didn't plan on hitting GS so early, but while the lady was at Khols, I figured what the hell. Couldn't find BlazBlue at this Gamestop, but it's all good. I'm going out again later. I hope to get lucky and check a few places for the BB collectors edition.

I played Scribblenoughts last night for like 4 hours. My lady traded the DS for the PSP with me. (Is there a way to get multiple saved games in LBPPSP?) So aside from my hand cramping due to Scribblenoughts control scheme, which I don't mind aside from being out of practice on using a DS, I really enjoy the game. Definitely a great starting point for a system that can be built upon with further releases. And I mean, where else can I watch God fight a Kraken or a Sea Serpent?
 
PS3 Question: What is the best blu-tooth headset to use with the PS3? Is it their own official one that comes with Socom or is there a better one than that?

Apparently UPS are delivering 2 of my games today, I'm surprised they're working on BF.[/QUOTE]

I used to work at UPS. It felt like we worked 24 hrs a day from November through Christmas, shit was nuts.
 
Yeah, their drivers make hella bank from overtime during the holiday season. The downside is that its like.....20 hours of overtime and crazy shit like that.



I remember back when I was working at the local ups hub loading trucks, the belts got so much stuff on them that you could hear this absolutely catastrophic sounding dragging noise every where. I can't even describe how loud and crazy it was.






The only thing that topped it was working the release of the last harry potter book, oooohhhh god. 300.000 boxes in one day when a typical shift would be 35-60, and that was just harry potter books only, we still had a regular days worth of shit to do on top of that.

The official headset is fantastic, its just about the only bluetooth headset i've used that works really well.
 
I was loading trucks in the hub in San Diego. It was cold initially but you learn to work very quickly and subsequently, wind up sweating your ass off regardless of how cold it gets outside.

Here's how rough the job was. I quit it to join the Marines. I kid you not, I had several reasons for joining the Marine Corps but one of them was literally so I wouldn't have to work at UPS anymore.

Well I guess that puts it into perspective. TBH The mailing services available here in the US are top notch IMO. I think I remember reading somewhere that the postal service is the most efficient part of the government.

I started playing Super Castlevania IV today. Man have I forgotten what 16-bit goodness is like.

I use the official Sorny BT set(cause I got a deal on it), but before that I used a Motorola H375 that worked great.

Since I've forwarded it to corrosivefrost, he'd be the one to ask if it works fine nowadays.

The official one that comes w/SOCOM or Endwar is good.

!!!

Such a great game, picked up a complete copy at a local store a few months ago. The music is just mindblowingly awesome. I can't seem to get past stage 8 or 9 though.

Frosty gives it, and manthing, a big thumbs up. Seems to work great from what we've used it for in spec ops.
 
Picked up BlazBlue as one of my B2G1F games at GS, wanted Mini Ninjas but they didn't have it even though the stock checker said they did. That always seems to happen to me on the B2G1F's, there always seems to be one game that they don't have so I have to make an on the spot decision about a 3rd game.

Annoying, oh well.

Played some Dead Space Extraction earlier, seems pretty good so far. Finished HOTD:Overkill last night, kind of a strange ending but I guess it was to be expected.
 
I finished up AC2 today. I had fun with it but will probably be trading it in to amazon.

And it looks like I'll be skipping the BF game deals since nothing I really want caught my eye(with the exception of KoToR for $2.49 on Steam). Not that I really need any more games at the moment. But I did take advantage of some BF deals on some figures and Anime.
 
This morning I was successful in snagging a few copies of Rock Band Unplugged for PSP (for myself and christmas presents!). Other than spending all day at work/in a car, today was quite the lucky day for myself, I was able pick up some games that had been on my wish list for a long time. I picked up Mega Man X4 & 8 for Sega Saturn, as well as A Boy & His Blob & Little Nemo The Dream Master for the NES! Tonight is going to be a great night filled with some retro gaming.

"Sorny" can suck. But their official Blue Tooth HS is really great.

[quote name='js1']Man, I am really digging Mass Effect! I also got my second platinum trophy! (Uncharted 2)[/QUOTE]

Yess... ME is my favorite game of all time. And my favorite SCI FI universe.
 
Decided to play Valkyria Chronicles again. I finally beat that one extra mission where you aren't allowed to have anyone touch the refugee camp. Shit was murder.
 
[quote name='js1']I'm also trying to find a good list of 360 exclusives, including arcade games.[/QUOTE]

Brah, just a tip: edit button.

Rei likes shitty music, not shitty games.

This needs spoiler tags. Ass :lol:

I played Modern Warfare 2 for a few hours today at a friends house. I can't say I didn't have fun, but I also can't say I'm sold on it.

I'm a closet Lady Gaga fan.
I'll back you up Rei. :lol:
 
Got Rocket Knight Adventures for genesis and adventures of batmang and robang - $3 each!

And The Last Remnant for $12!

Sweet!
