    The game Everybody's Gone to the Rapture has certainly gathered my attention.

    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I didn't know that Plants vs. Zombies 2 is out! :shock:
    I've been playing it the last couple of days. It's ok....nothing great.
    I'm almost done with the second "world".

    Picking up saints row 4 in the morning!

    I saw a review for it on IGN and completely lost interest. But I hope I'm wrong.

    I did too and then saw a metric score of 84 and a few 5 star..

    The first part was lame (like in 3) but once you get out into the world it's fun and crazy :)

    Oh, and Sony is considering releasing GT6 on Dec 6, 2013. The year might be subject to interpretation ;)

    I just ordered a video game system this weekend........... Super Nintendo! :lol:

    My mom gave away all my classic consoles when I was a teenager and I have had an itch to get SNES back. Ordered it along with 10 games. Made a list and there are 25 other games I will still want to get :shock:.

    :thumbup:

    i brought my NES out to chicago last month when i was home visiting my parents in jersey. NES with the original controllers (complete and covered in stickers that you used to find inside a few issues of nintendo power) from when i was about six and about 30 games. had to leave the powerpad at my parent's though... didn't want TSA giving me a hard time at the gate :lol:

    one thing i learned very quickly when i hooked it up to my TV... my girlfriend is LETHAL at dr. mario. i can't beat her! i can't win one f'ing game! :lol: :fp:

    I had a girlfriend in college who I'd get into serious Dr. Mario battles with. She probably beat me 60-70% of the time.
    It used to get heated! :lol::lol:
    Damn that game! :lol:

    :lol: glad i am not alone! damn that game is right!

    it has gotten to the point to where she taunts me. "maybe i should put my settings on level 8 and you should put yours on level 1... maybe you need that handicap."

    the only way i beat her is if she runs out of room and reaches the top of the pill jar.

    i am generally decent at most video games i pick up. but this fucking game... i SUCK! :lol:

    I'm really looking forward to Dark Souls 2. I don't think it comes out until early next year, but that one is a day one purchase for me! The last two "Souls" games were phenomenal!
  • RygarRygar Posts: 8,689
    Just beat Hitman Absolution, pretty good! If you liked Blood Money it's an easy purchase.

    Cool. I believe Hitman Abs is free on the PSN (PS+) right now....or it was.
    I'll have to check it out! :thumbup:

    Well it's been 19.99 for a good while too ;)

    I got it free with the new Tomb Raider, which, if I haven't already said so in here, is also excellent!

    just started Mass Effect #1, being at work today is difficult.

    Finished that for the second time yesterday... on my second with Mass Effect 2 right now.
    I played ME1 at least 6 times. Loved it.
    I am on my second playthrough on ME2, on Insanity difficulty, but I am struggling to stay interest. 6 or 7 playthroughs of ME1 led to a case of sequelitis, I think.

    I don't think I could play the first one 6 times. Awesome game, but I think 2 encompasses everything that was great about the franchise. Looking forward to playing it multiple times.

    That's cool. Wasn't $20 I ever intended to spend so....win.

    I do also want to check out the new Tomb Raider. Never been a fan of the past games but this one looked intriguing.

    I guess I just liked when they were a tad more realistic. PArt 2 was my favorite. I may still give this one a shot - Im just glad I didnt buy it assuming it would be like pt 2 or 3. This one looks SO over the top crazy! :lol:

    There's a free demo on Xbox live or psn

    I bought it last year and saw it for $20 online everywhere at Black Friday.

    My advice is wait a bit and its much cheaper.

    Speaking of cheap - I buy most of my games used on eBay 4-6 months after release and always pay between $5-$20.

    Every tour I wait on games and after the tour i catch up on newer games I missed but much cheaper :)

    The new Nintendo 2DS ...

    1

    Plays the 3DS games with no 3D. For $130. And an odd design. :think:

    WiiU will also have a $50 drop in price for the 32 GB model.
