Wow - just played Smackdown for 11 hours straight! I can't get enough of it. Best game ever!

Hey. On the DEV KITS at work I can purchase as many MP's as I like. Does anyone have a game suggestion? That can be played during breaks ect. Been playing Castle Crashers (game is awesome).
Geoff Keighley: New Uncharted 2 footage tonight at 12:30am on Spike TV.

I want to watch that... but, I don't want spoilers. =(

Wow - I don't feel so special anymore. GT just showed everything we saw behind closed doors at E3:

Including
Shepard dieing. THERE HAPPY?!
This guy said it best:
I don't think it's a spoiler, I think it just adds to the immersion. In real life, a person undertaking missions like these would know full well that they might not live to see the end. Now you know that too, and that fact will have weight in your decisions during the game.Or, to put it another way: This shit just got real.

I'm not sure what point they're trying to prove by preemptively spoiling a possible ending. Seems like Mass Effect has always had that sort of tone. Or was it not "real" when
Kaiden/Ashley/Wrex died
in ME1?

Ashley could have died? Good thing that didn't come up when I played through it, she was mah woman.
I really needto replay ME one of these days.

Started PoP last night. So far it seems like it could get really repetitive. find boss, kill boss, collect seeds, rinse and repeat. I really like the Prince/Elika dynamic though.
 
No that IS a fucking spoiler. There is no possible reason it needed to be It announced. It annoyed me to no end when Garnet Lee just casually said it on Listen up.... And there are spoiler tags for a reason so use them.
 
damn eca codes stack with the 50% off codes from the amazon trade in deal
so uhm anyone on the fence TRADE! :lol:
60% off a TE+credit=too good to pass up :drool:
 
[quote name='gunm']MW2 is a day one for me. Well, sort of: I pre-ordered @ $3 off/no tax @ amazon. It might take them a week or so to get it to me.

I'll get BF1943 if my bro-in-law gets it, but I don't think so. Still, $15 is pretty cheap, even if it's online only /looks at SOCOM and Warhawk.[/QUOTE] Socom 1-3 had pretty fun single player campaigns....At least I really enjoyed them.
 
[quote name='dallow']So if I haven't started Mass Effect, did DKBear just ruin it?[/QUOTE]
Nope, but he did spoil something that can happen in ME2...
 
Oh, not this again. It's known publicly! It was on TV damn... THE whole reason they are telling everyone is to make it feel real. Just like in real life, if you go into a dangerous mission you have a chance to die. Just like in the game. If you are not going to run into that ending in the game, then it is not a spoiler.

I find the commitment to realism amusing given the action hero lines Shepard is spouting off in that trailer.
"How about....goodbye?"

The combat, on the other hand, looks awesome. Seems much less rigid than the original.

No, it's a spoiler. Just because I might not run into that branch changes nothing.
 
Plot developments are spoilers. Not just endings.

I'd play ME1 right now but the friend I let borrow it went to Europe for the next month. :(
 
Got my new 4890 in and god is it good compared to my old 4850x2. I can never recommend that pos card after dealing with 3 rmas and still having a bad card.
 
Asus top. I wanted the sapphire toxic but it's out of stock until the 20th (and will probably sellout fast) and my old one got so bad it kept crashing within mins of booting.
 
[quote name='DarkNessBear']Oh, not this again. It's known publicly! It was on TV damn... [/QUOTE]

who watches TV?

and I know it's been stated before, but ME is definitly what I consider GotY for 2007... Bioshock can suck it for all I care... though Hotel Dusk still has a strong place in my heart.
 
Been playing Prey....why don't people love this game?

And FFVIi, after
grinding for an hour or two not knowing where to go for sure, I wandered into Cosmic Canyon and just finished the Red XIII backstory part. [/spoiler[
 
Does anyone use a gun-shell accessory for Wii shooting games?
Really I'm only considering the Zapper and Perfect Shot.

There was some HotD gun that looked really nice though.
 
I had the perfect shot, but it really doesn't add much to your game besides it feeling like an arcade. I'm more accurate just holding the wiimote.
 
Yeah, that's the only thing I was hoping for. That it would make it more accurate, I guess not though.

Playing through Umbrella Chronicles right now.

Not me, Occasionally I'll watch The History Channel or Cold Case Files but thats about me.

Hotel Dusk was an awesome game... I've been meaning to play it again.
 
[quote name='tiredfornow']Maybe its my set up and I don't have enough room, but it wasn't as easy as looking down the sight and shooting like I had hoped. :p[/QUOTE]
I'll just 'rent' one and see how it works out. :)
 
[quote name='dallow']Ugh, what's the problem with it?

f'ing ps3[/QUOTE]

It's seems to cut out randomly, sometimes you can hear some(all) members in your party, other times you can't hear anyone or they can't hear you even when in a private party.

I don't know if that is an issue on the 360 version or not.
 
There was a Terminal Reality dev at my GS today and they were treating him like a king.

He acts just like Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory.
Best part was his not so subtle admission about pirating import Japanese PSP games.
 
Is there really no good Terminator games out there? I played a light-gun shooter in the arcades way back but haven't seen a good one since.
 
[quote name='dallow']So if I haven't started Mass Effect, did DKBear just ruin it?[/QUOTE]
This is at least the 2nd time he's posted it. Here's a hint: if you have to write "that's not a spoiler because..." after it, then you're wrong.
 
Sacred 2 or "hold analog stick + A ftw"

love this game :cool: I didn't like the PC demo at all, but they freaking nailed the console controls. All Blizzard needs to do is lift the controls and throw them on Diablo III and call it a day.
