The Arcade Random Thoughts Thread

CAG doesn't have anything about the gold box sale so I would assume it's not today.

Uh, yeah they do. It's ranked 2nd in the top gaming deals threads. I saw it first posted two days ago on CAG which is why I knew it was the 23rd.

Amazon All Video Games Goldbox Event Feb 23rd

I meant about it being today, because when there's a sale like that usually it's right on the main page.

Hope this VSN Arcade league gets off the ground, sounds fun.

Not surprised at all that the Gold Box is nothing but Wii crap. Boo Amazon. Booooooooooooooooooooooooo.

The last one they had was decent because they included headsets and other peripherals. The games they usually put in these events don't interest me though.

Team LAG: Life's a Glitch. Such a great clan name.

That easter egg is pretty damn funny. I read about it in comments on another board somewhere but this is the first I've seen of it.

Picking up my PS3 next week, was gonna pick up Uncharted 2 with it and Little Big Planet 2 as well. Any PS3 guys have these games? Worth the buy? Figured I'd just rent the first Uncharted, play through it and be good. Also probably rent inFamous at some point. I wanna buy that game Flowers too, as I've heard only great things and I'm pretty stoked to play it completely baked.

Yeas, all of those games mentioned are awesome. Uncharted 2 and LBP2 are definitely worth a buy. You can definitely just rent Uncharted 1 but inFamous is a pretty lengthy game. If you have Gamefly though that wouldn't be an issue.

Yeah I was thinking about buying inFamous. Have you played Flowers at all?

[j.hen]

Also what about other exclusive games like Resistence and Killzone? I've never played any of these. Worth the buy/rent? I'm about to go PS3 crazy in this bitch.

Flower is a POS. I can't believe people actually enjoy it.

I've only played maybe five minutes of Flower and got sidetracked. What I played seemed cool as shit. It's very mellow game which I would imagine would be great for someone like you that just wants to roll one and relax.
The rviews for it have been amazing. I'll get to it one of these days.e

Pretty much every PS3 exclusive is top quality and is worth a purchase IMO. The only one that I can think that wasn't is one that no one remembers anyway and that was Haze, a FPS published by Ubisoft. Also Lair was no where near as good as expected. A lot of that had to do with the motion controls which they latter patched.
You can't go wrong with the Resistance games, Killzones, Uncharteds, Ratchet & Clanks, LBPs, God of Wars, etc. Plus there are a tons of cool PSN games like Flower, Joe Danger, Shatter and Super Stardust,

Far out. I better get all you playstation thrizzle dudes' PSN gamertag thing too.
