Hmm. What game to start next. Thinking about Medal of Honor: Airborne. Maybe another playthrough of Arkham Asylum. Kingdoms of Amalur? I dunno.

I just started up Amalur again to bang out some of the DLC/maybe 100% it. It's a really fun game, but for the love of God don't get sucked into the sidequests. You'll be playing it for 120 hours and 80% of them are bordering on MMO stupid.

Maybe another playthrough of Max Payne 3.

Yeah I've already decided to not do many (if any) sidequests. One of my favorite streamers on Twitch is playing through it right now and it's getting ridiculous without many sidequests lol.

I want to play through 1 and 2 again on my OG Xbox before I do 3 again.

I still need to play MP3 for the first time. I can't believe I don't have a copy, particularly after the Ebay binge I went on a few months back.

If you are interested in my opinion Swarley, having put WAY too much time into the game (maxed level, like, 125 hours), do some sidequests here and there to boost levels as you need to if it gets too hard (it can have its moments -- not many, but they're there), and definitely do all of the faction stuff. The faction quests, and the actual story, honestly, are all pretty good.

UC3, dragging Med in kicking and screaming, so we can get this co-op in, duder.

That's not what I was looking for in that question. I don't count co-op and MP as "games I'm playing." I'm looking at games to start for single player campaign. Not that I wouldn't be up for UC3 co-op and/or MP.

Ducking.

For SP game, pick something you normally wouldn't just play when you're up for gaming.

Anything in your collection that's there so you can say, "I have it," but you never play it at all.

Hell, look at your digital collection as well.

I'm rusty as all hell but I'll unleash my UC2/UC3 greatness on a legion of faces as needed.

I still remember when I Lone Wolf'd a server as Lazarevic and made an entire team rage-quit via Shotgun Cheese.

Is there an official 'EA can lick my scrotum' thread??

[BigBucs]

See all new madden 25 threads or any new madden release thread from past years.

Man, by now I was so set on starting Kingdoms of Amalur. I throw it in, and the fucking disc wont read. I was about to freak out b/c I thought the PS3 was busted and being only 1 week from The Last of Us, I was going to lose my shit. Then I popped in Uncharted 3 and Sleeping Dogs, and they read just fine. So, fuck. I guess it could be worse though. No idea what to play now, though. Either Arkham Asylum or finally finishing my second playthrough of Assassin's Creed 2.

I almost had to buy a new PS3 controller this morning.. Hit 93 million points on the World War Hulk table for Marvel Pinball and lost my last ball on some bullshit....

[Buzzman]

I popped in Resident Evil 1 and was going to play throguh that franchise. I dont know if I can anymore. The controls are so fucked beyind playable, it feels like a chore just to walk, let alone avoid zombies and kill them.
