The Arcade Random Thoughts Thread

Its the cell-shaded one. I've always wanted to pick ti up but for some reason didn't Sitting at $7 I couldnn't resist. Ironically the game I am most excited to play is Assassins Creed 2. I have no clue how I haven't played it yet; especially since I actually loved the first despite its many flaws.

What do you mean by "Have you played all of the games you got at one point Buzzman?"

That sentence did not sound right when I wrote it either. I simply meant, had you played any of the games that you purchased prior to purchasing them (other than Gears 2, obvious).

Assassins Creed 2 is fucking awesome in general, but particularly compared to the first.

I have been trying to play Frozen Synapse but I am unbelievably awful at it.

Then nah, I didn't play any of them except Gears 2. Whats funny is I am all excited to play these old ass games I just bought yet I have Saints Row 3, Battlefield 3, and Shadow of the Damned I just recently bought and feel a bit undetermined to play them. I have this annoying habit of only enjoying a game once I get 3-4 hours into the game. Until I get past that introduction, the game is usually a chore to play.

Just beat Uncharted 3 for the second time on Crushing. I can't fathom how good this game was at times..

I got into the Holiday Spirit like Buzzman and plunked down some change on used games.

Motorstorm
Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
Just Cause 2

All for less than $25 due to the 'Buy 2, Get 1 Free' deal they had going on.

I nearly forgotten about Load Times after today but at least with Motorstorm, it's worth it seeing how fucking great it looks/plays.

I've been thinking about picking Just Cause 2 up again. That game was so fun.

Same here, just finished Uncharted '2' and look in my list of games, There are a few old ones in there. I'm actually surprised I finished 2 games in 2 weeks. I haven't finished a game in years.

Crushing? You are a better man than me sir.

JC2 is such a great game and I have absolutely no legitimate reason why I stopped playing it. I need to get back into that shit. I loved how on the PS3 version you can just upload video clips to YOUTube.

Trying to decide between starting up Darksiders, Metro 2033 or Dead Space over Christmas (still can't believe I've never finished any of those games).

I've only played Dead Space from those three, and I loved it. So, I'll recommend starting that one.

Yeah it was a bitch alright, Don't even get me started about the fight you have in the ballroom on the ship... that and when you have to fight the flaming head fuckers when your drugged from the water and the picture is sorta distorted.

But all in all it actually wasn't all that bad. The first encounter with the flaming head guys when they come out of that 'elevator' thing when your chasing Talbot I killed them my first try on crushing. I got about 60 of the treasures so I'm gonna go through a play-through on very easy and get the rest of the trophies and plat the game.

Thinking about adding the Assassins Creed series to my gaming backlog. Is it worth it? I have the first one but never beat it.
