Metal Reviews

Oh man does that really suck. I just played through it again ont he hardest difficulty, it is quite a challenge. I can't wait to play this game in full and see if there are any RPG elements to it. Because that would be the cats ass.

It's available for PS3 as well (still talking about the demo)

Bionic Commando: Nice

Fallout 2: Even nicer.. of course

Lost Oddessey: Nice at first, then cry babies are introduced... also, you can't walk for more than 5 min in town before cutscenes and locked away memories start wasting 20 min of you time. Also, the characters seem rather one dimensional, the main character only think about one thing, and all his memories only point to one thing - it sucks to be immortal... immortal this, immortal that.. bla bla bla... but i really like Jansen, and the way he talks... rather entertaining. Also, like so many other rpg games, you feel like you are just running in the world to waste time, there's no clear goals or what so ever... And i'm fucking tired of wasting time on kids who have run away on their own, just so that the player can waste time saving them... it has been countless of times in other mediocre rpg's. typical japanese rpg games. Always childish, always preaching stupid shit. Final Fantasy and dragon quest are the only japanse rpg worth playing, despite the declining quality of the final fantasy games.
Can't wait till Fallout 3 and Fable 2 arrives - now, that's what I'm talking about!!!! No cute little manga babies crying or running around in stupid clothings, no preaching - just pure story, fun, and killing.. yiiihaar!

Yeah the 2K serires was better at some points than EA's NHL in the past years but not 2008.

NHL 2008 > NHL 2K8

even critics agree : http://www.metacritic.com

I'm trying to play The Temple of Elemental Evil but I just can't find the time to dedicate and play it.

And it's poorly optimized and full of bugs.

That's why I said IMO about 08 vs. 2K8. I liked 08, I just like 2K8 better. And I don't really care about what the critics have to say.

Mercenaries 2 comes out tomorrow (i think), but I don't think I will be able to get it until Tuesday. I pre-oreder it.

I got Mario Sluggers for my Wii. It's pretty much what you would expect a Mario sports game to be. Pretty fun, but definitely needs online.

I haven't had the chance to play it for more than a few hours and I haven't encountered any bugs yet. I think I read though that most of them were fixed by the following 3 patches which I have installed already. It feels quite hard though... I'm not playing very carefully or seriously but I think I'm dying way too often...

Mercs 2 for the 360.

pretty fun, even better when online with somebody. Very easy achievments.

Anybody played Castle Crashers on X-Box Live arcade? That game is awesome.

Plus I pre-ordered Fable 2 and got Fable 2 Pub Games. I probably wont be playing it very much, as I want to earn my gold in the actual game. FABLE 2 CO-OP!!!!!!

Downloaded NHL 09 demo, will play in a little while.

I beat FF IX. Awesome.

Now I'm gonna finish X. I got about halfway through it awhile ago.

I got FFTA2 for the DS a few days ago, it's bloody addictive. As is MaBoShi from the Wiiware.

Been playing NHL 09's be a pro mode. It's really addictive, i'll most likely try it online as well.

I'm buying that game real soon, the demo was cool. We'll have to play through it on XBL together, have you done that yet?

I bought Bionic Commando: Rearmed last night. Awesome game, one of the best yet on XBLA.

BTW, is anybody else looking forward to Mega Man 9, the Banjo-Kazooie remake, Duke Nukem 3D, and Street Fighter II HD?

I've been on a Final Fantasy binge lol. We've had all the games for the longest time, but I never really got around to playing them until now.

I've been playing FF VI for the GBA and I got V not too long ago. I'll probably get IV, now that it came out for the DS.

I bought Prey yesterday for 5€, as well as Stronghold 1 (old copy was damaged) for 7€. Excellent bargains.

duke nukem 3d? it's actually coming out?!

Yeah. In the next 20 years or so.

Come a long way in Crysis now. What a simply superb game. It completely surprised me. I expected a nicer looking (as in drop-down gorgeous) Far Cry. But oh no, Crysis is soooo much more. Not going to spoil anything though, but there are some interesting moments further in.

Hope to finish it before Crysis: Warhead lands this week.
