What are the differences between them all? There are 10 different versions or whatever of FPS Freek and then once for specific sports. Do they actually work better for that sport or are they just for looks and work the exact same as the rest?

Thanks for the opinions on Skylanders. I ended up getting Giants today at TRU with another figure for the 25$ gift card. Been playing it today and I like it, pretty fun game. Seems to be a lot to do in it outside the main story, will have to see if it holds my interest.

If Metro is $10 on Live, get it there. AW has been as low as $7 before. It's a great game but I would hope you could find it for less than $20.

I was thinking of getting it on Live but I'm still stuck on getting a physical copy of full retail games....The Walking Dead was the exception since I already had Episode 1&2 digital versions.

Alright, the last finals of my life are over with and college graduation is done. It is time to make a MASSIVE dent in my backlog over the next week. Going to finish Far Cry 3 this weekend and then get back into Hitman: Absolution. After Hitman, it'll be onto Bioshock and then probably bust into the Tomb Raider Trilogy.

Just beat Mafia II. Holy crap what an underrated game, the ending was a shocker.

 

I wonder what the fuck happened to Joe?! I felt so left out to dry once it ended that way.

From the wikia:

 

It is merely up to the player's imagination as to whether Joe died or not, as many cases support his death, as well as him possibly catching on and surviving the ordeal. Cut dialogue for Leo Galante found in the game's files reveals that the hitmen were taking Joe to meet Mr. Chu, head of The Tongs, were he would have to get himself off the hook for what he did in Chinatown (as the deal only pardoned Vito), however, this still leaves his fate ambiguous. Leo says "That's what I wanted to talk to you about. Our deal only covered you. Joe has a meeting with Mr. Chu. That was the price of peace. I'm sorry, kid." All in all, judging by The Tong's brutality (as seen through Henry Tomasino's death) Joe would likely pay with his life, or at least some form of mutilation as a punishment.

The DLC where you play as Joe only covers the time when Vito was in prison so...

It is a very underrated and awesome game, but the open world was pointless. It looked amazing but there were no side missions to do and basically no reason to explore it which was a shame.

Yeah, I liked the open world, I found myself robbing cars and shops for shits and giggles. I know you could do side missions for Bruski and what not. It was a very solid game. I'm hoping for a third one?
