Going to put a good chunk of time into inFamous 2 this afternoon.


Funny how SR3 co-op made me hate games that don't have that option.

Thoughts on Van Helsing?

I am not in the group. I'll look it up. I'm friends with a few people from here, though.

Well I like it...it has a ton of stuff to upgrade and it is a loot party. The music and sound are fantastic. Your sidekick is very helpful as well and very customizable. I love the Action RPG type of game so be careful on my opinion. I dont know how long it is though. I plan to play Magika after this.

Quicklook:

Need a good game off steam to play on a not so great laptop while I'm watching sports... Is that specific enough

VVVVVV
The Binding of Isaac
Cave Story+

These don't require much processing power and are $10 or less.

Nice...I also just noticed that they posted the QL today, I'll have to watch it once I get home.

Magicka seems really cool but also insane. It also didn't run terrifically on my old PC, so I didn't play too far as once stuff got pretty bananas the framerate dropped like a rock.

Is any of the Assassins Creed thats on sale worth getting?

Which ones are on sale?

AS2 and ACB are both in my top 15 favorite games of the current gen. ACR is not nearly as bad as it's made out to be. It's not near as good as the other two Ezio games though. It is a very nice conclusion to Ezio's story, and some interesting flashbacks to Altair. AC3's story is boring as fuck. Connor is boring as fuck. Hatham is a pretty cool character though. The setting is fairly interesting and the gameplay is a ton better than previous games. AC1, most people hate it, if you were to play the entire series I would recommend it, but if not, then just watch a video or something on it to get the story.

Whoops I meant to says DLC. Ive played and enjoyed them all exception 3 which I havent played. I know the AC2 DLC doesnt come with achievements. Thats all I know of any of the DLC.

Oooooooh. I thought you had played them, so I thought it was weird you were asking lol. I've been real interested in the AC3 King Washington DLC, but I still have yet to make the purchase. I haven't played any of the others.

[Buzzman]

Even with a sale the DLC seems way too pricey. $6.70 for DLC when I can find the full game for $10 seems like a bad deal to me.

[SethMode]

None of them are any more than time waster. Nothing really memorable about them. I personally wouldn't recommend them, unless you're just dying for a little bit more narrative (and nothing that spectacular).

That still pisses me off. Paid DLC with no extra cheevos/trophies. Bullshit.

Remember this when we all have to eventually pay for all of trophies/Cheevos/meaningless bullshit that makes us bitter about wasting our lives on digital media all the time.

You pay for the experience, not the right to shove it in everyone's face before you forget about your purchase and eventually delete it from your hard drive space.
