Playing nothing really. Just watched Green Street Hooligans, what a ing awesome movie. If no one has seen it I highly recommend you all go out and rent it. It's like a perfect combination of Fight Club and American History X.
Gonna play Smash Bros probably, since I got nothin else. Might go out to the mall later and buy a cheap Gamecube game to hold me over for the week until I'm back home for break.
Why the hell did you buy AC for the PS3 and 360? I mean I can understand if you bought the CE/LE verison and a regular version but two regular versions? s
[quote name='MarkMan']It was $39.99, picked both up and ended up selling one to a good friend since he wasn't able to make it to Fry's before they sold out...[/quote]
Goddamn MarkMan, you may have out-spent me for the month.

Agreed, great movie. Despite Elijah Wood sounding hilarious when he's not supposed to.
Just finished Uncharted. Great game. I liked the little
survival horror jaunt they had towards the end. Even though i don't like survival horror.
I bought a decent amount in November: eVGA 8800GT KO, 21.6" LG LCD monitor, Gears of War PC, Crysis CE PC, UT3 CE PC, Virtua Fighter 5 360, King of Fighters XI PS2, Fire Pro Returns PS2, and a 320 GB Seagate HDD. Nothing compared to MarkMan or pete though.
Trying to remember everything I bought in November.
Guitar Hero 3 w/guitar
Mass Effect
Rock Band
Uncharted
King of Fighters XI
Assassin's Creed
Kane and Lynch
Blacksite
Cooking Mama 2
Virtua Fighter 5
Ontamarama
Lifesigns
Mass Effect guide w/artbook
Lots of anime DVDs (including the Gunbuster movie set which cost $90 plus shipping >.
Started The Darkness today. Seems okay so far, but I haven't played more than an hour or so.
For those of you playing Fire Emblem... I want to pick up the Gamecube one before playing the Wii version, but I want to know if it would be worth it to start on hard. I am a fairly experienced SRPG gamer, I think I could hold my own... what do you guys think I should do?
Yea Uncharted is really good, but man it was just so short I'm afraid I'll forget about it lolol... Oh well, I guess that's incentive to replay it every now and then...
I actually like that Uncharted's short (I'm up to the 7th level or something). It increases the chances of me replaying it down the line. Great, great game.
played Twilight Princess last night for 2 1/2 hours and then realized that I need to finish this game. I'm 20 hours in and about halfway through and when I do beat it, it will be the second zelda game I've ever beaten. (yes, I know it's sad)
other than that, trying to decide what I'm going to play on my 360.

It was only the 2nd one I ever beat to (OoT being the other).
I'll probably get shit for this, but I'm just not a huge Zelda person#. It's okay and everything, but I can't get into all the games. OoT is the shit and one of my favorites of all time, but other than that I tried pretty much every single one and couldn't stand it long enough to finish (besides TP, which was also fairly good). I can't get into Metroid games either (except Fuzion, that's the only one I ever beat).

I'm the same way. I don't like Zelda or Metroid. I didn't even like OoT. Never understood what was so good about it. I did like Link to the Past, but that's about it. As far as Metroid, didn't like a single one of those.
I really don't like any Nintendo franchises to be honest. Except for Fire Emblem and Advance Wars.
I've played all the zelda games, and I own most of them, but I've never been like super huge on them like a lot of my friends are. Metroid is a fairly different story, I've played, enjoyed and beat most of them, but I've never gotten like all hyped up or bought them on day 1.
So I'm at my aunt's house for dinner and brought along the PSP. Played some SFA3 max, but almost time for UH to make it's bid for a BCS. I didn't go to UH, but hell, they are representing the 808 this year. Go Warriors!

I am like this with mario games, I just don't care for the games and most of them are annoying and too hard for me. The only Nintendo franchise I really follow is Pokemon, Zelda isn't bad, I try to play Zelda games but then I fail miserably and stop playing them, but its better than mario where you can't even play for 5 min without falling off a side only to repeat it over and over and keep falling off in the same place thus wasting time...
The only Metroid game I cared for was Super Metroid.
I really enjoyed the original Zelda and LTTP, but that's about all I bothered to pick up for the "old school" Zelda. Oh, I did get whatever that first GBC Zelda was and Wind Waker for GCN, too. I only kept WW, though.
Currently, I have TP and PH, but I haven't finished those yet and probably won't for a long while.
I think Fusion is the best Metroid followed by Super Metroid. The rest were just eh IMO. Especially the Prime games (except for 3, that one was turning out to be a lot better than the other 2 from what I played).
[quote name='MarkMan']I hate Vista... I use my XP PC as my primary because I just can't stand the weird changes... It looks nice though...[/QUOTE]
I love the interface, but this is the second time I've reverted to XP for one reason or another. Though, the only reason I went back to Vista this time was coz I built my new computer. Still, I should have XP installed tonight, all my games on by tomorrow, and hopefully then I can get some gaming in.... next weekend.
But eh, I'll have pics for ya'll to enjoy tomorrow.
Hmm I like Super Metroid, and all three of the Metroid Prime games. As for Zeldas, I like LTTP, OOT, TP, and WW. I have only beat LTTP, and OOT though. About half way in both WW and TP. In other news I beat AC tonight. I hated how they ing left you with that cliff hanger. I was like "oh you ing bastards!" Seemed to really get a lot better towards the end for me. All -n- all 8.0 from me and it never froze once for me (I have the 360 version.) I hope in AC2 they make it not so damn repetitive and make the combat better. Everything else was pretty top notch such as the: Graphics, Story, Game play,- (Not the combat though the rest of the game play) Sound, Replay value, and the Controls. I did have 2-3 frame rate issues during the 9th Assassination but the rest of the game ran so smooth can't really knock it any points for that. Now debating on which game to go to from here....
[quote name='zewone']You ever play Super Metroid or Wind Waker/Link to the Past?
Oh, and if you liked Twilight Princess, you should check out Okami since TP rips it off so hard.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I played all 3. Link to the Past was cool, I got to the dark world where you're like that animal or whatever. Super Metroid I got 2 hours in but never finished, although I did like that. I can't stand the Prime games though. Wind Waker I loved visually and the story was better than the standard Zelda fare IMO, but I just got bored about 4 dungeons or so in. I think I had to find some gauntlets or something? May have had to do with Fire and Ice. I don't remember, but I do clearly remember getting bored of it.
Now though that I'm up in Hicksville and have nothing to do alot of the time, I should give all 3 games another chance.

Don't you mean Okami rips TP? Yeah, Okami could very well be the better game, but they both dropped around the same time and while both featured canine shenanigans, Zelda kinda did the whole pseudo-action RPG long before Okami.
