Is skate 3 good? I never got to play the first two much. I used to skate, but kind of dropped that hobby awhile ago. Sad to see it getting the Tony Hawk treatment though.
 
I thought the general mechanics/gameplay of the skate series were good, but I dunno, for some reason, I got bored of the game rather quickly.

Corny marketing = good game now?
 
Alright, after staying up until 5:15 playing, I can say that I'm now into and fully addicted to Fallout 3! A bit over 20 hours into it now.

Finished off (pretty sure) everything to do in Point Lookout--was a lot longer than I expected the DLC to be! Will focus on some main area side quests and a story quest or two before doing another of the DLC areas.

[quote name='dallow']Huh?

Yeah. That's what I meant.
Not that I had just played it for four hours straight last night and enjoyed it.[/QUOTE]
Hmm, that came off kind of antagonisic.

What I meant was, I posted the commercial after playing it for 4 hours last night, and edited the commercial in after my post as I had never seen it before. I think the commercial is cute. As is the whole game.
 
[quote name='Kissfuldreamer']Looks like the Batman GOTY keeps getting pushed back a week. It was originally supposed to come out today, now it's pushed back until next week. I guess that gives me some time to decide if I really want it.[/QUOTE]

Really? It's showing up as in stock on both GS and Amazon.

I think PSN had the DLC for it in the store update yesterday.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Unless Nintendo has some big games to announce for the last half of the year, Picross 3D is easily DS game of the year already.[/QUOTE]

There's still Golden Sun DS unless that was moved to the 3DS.

They must have recently updated that then, because they weren't as of yesterday. My copies of Fallout 3 and 3D Dot Heroes are on their way, yee =)

The Golden Sun games were boring as fuck. Great sleep aides, but bad RPGs.
 
3DS sounds interesting. But I just picked up a DSi XL to go with my two DS Lite (for my kids) and a DSi. I plan to sell/trade my DSi for a 3DS.

Not sure about PSP2. Need to see what they do with that one first.

I definitely won't get either since I haven't touched my DS in ages.

Only reason I got it was for 2D games like New SMB, the Metroidvania's etc. and those kind of dried up.

So I definitely don't have any interest personally in 3D handhelds (real 3D or 3D games more generally) as I don't game on the go and would rather just play a console game vs. playing a 3D portable game.

To each their own of course.
 
I really hope there aren't any good DS games until the 3DS comes out. My DSi's L button is broken, and I'd rather not have to downgrade to my DS Lite just to play.
 
Man, I can't believe how terrible Iron Man 2 is. It's WAY worse than the first one. I downloaded Iron Man 1 and 2 demos. Iron Man 1 is pretty buggy/bad, but compared to Iron Man 2 it is GOTY. The graphics are even WAY better... how can that happen?

I get the feeling the guys making Iron Man 2 knew they were losing their jobs long before the game was done.
 
I wonder how much better the Wolverine game would've been if they had been able to work at the pace they had before the movie license was shoehorned in...
 
I thought that the wolverine game was pretty decent. A Bit repetitive but otherwise solid. I Wish the iron man games could even approach it.

I liked it too. I'm just wondering how much better it could've been.

They probably didn't put any effort into it because they knew people would buy it regardless of quality.
 
Yea, but even if they put 0 effort into the Sequel it should still be just as "good" as the first one... Oh well.

Anyways, I'm going to E3! Anyone else? :D

I'm usually at home to watch, but I'll be in Berlin during E3 >_

Your mistake was thinking a movie game could be any good. Wolverine is an exception, but primarily because the movie license was added in much much later.
 
Wow, I forgot how fun Rocket Knight was. Looks great in HD too. I think I'll get it as soon as there's a sale. Some solid old school 2D fun right there.

Rocket knight is already out? I'll have to try it out after I get back from my trip to nyc.

Give me that golden ticket.

Sucks that I gotta sit home and watch it when it is only a short drive away D:

I'd do horrible things to be able to go
 
I have friends who work in the game industry, but with all the major events happening in my life this year it doesn't seem likely for me to go to E3.

EDIT: I bought a new bookcase to hold all my strategy guides, and I must say our game room looks WAAAY better. I love when things are organized :)

No, it's because they were going to be laid off when they were done anyway.

Care to share pics of the gameroom?

Finished Splinter Cell Conviction. The end was kind of annoying when
they force you to either climb the pipe or run into the lit room to escape a couple waves of enemies, including enemy Splinter Cells.
 
^I'll take some later when I get home =)

So Im a little lost with the Dragon Quest series. I was looking to buy the next DQ game coming out, and Gamestop has Dragon Quest IX listed while Amazon has DQ VI, both which are for the DS. I doubt they would release two simultaneosly like that, but I may be wrong.
