I miss playing my PS3 so much. Madden but especially Twisted Metal. Spring break is coming up so afterwards I'm definitely bringing my system onto the campus.

age of empires 2 might be coming to Steam

would be the greatest news ever if true

confirmed today (and will be in HD)

That makes me happy, as I am a huge RTS fan. I would say it is my fav type of game after sports to play. StarCraft, Command and Conquer series, and Age of Empires were games I loved. I wish World in Conflict got a bigger following because it was a cool RTS as well.

Between the GoW demo, the new Tomb Raider, End Game DLC for Bf3, a sprinkling of SH: Downpour and GoW releasing next week I'm going to be set for a while.

I got a used copy of Bionic Commando on Amazon for 1.58 with shipping. After playing through it almost twice, I'd put myself in the camp of those that really really liked it, in spite of its flaws. Lot of great parts to that game that I would love to see expanded upon, but I doubt that ever happens now.

I also bought El Shaddai on XBL for 2.99, and after about 45 minutes I still have no clue what the fuck that weirdo game is about. That and if the combat doesn't improve or expand, it's going to be boring as shit.

...game probably will never see another iteration unless they do another reboot.

As for Shaddai, it's based off a "lost set of texts" from the Testament (I think Old but Google would know for sure).

They basically jazzed it up like DMC with the emphasis on swapping between weapon types and whether or not you'd use light or dark weapons against enemies with specific weaknesses to each.

That and one guy talks to his wife on his cell all the time between scenes.

Anyone have Forza Horizon? I want to get it but would rather have someone to race with if I did.

There's a handful of us that have it.

[Rylo]

Which one should I get 4 or Horizon? I might just get both honestly. I'm in the mood to race.

Just depends on if you're in the mood for sim or arcade style racing.

Yeah, Horizon is more arcadey. It's nowhere near as much as a game like NFS but it is more than the standard Forza games. I loved Horizon. I did about everything there is to do in that game.
