[ALL] Twigg's gaming chronicles

[dave]

Yes it was. It reminded me of the Madden and NCAA games my buddy from Michigan and I use to play all the time. It seemed most would come down to the wire.

That long TD in the first half thanks to my horrible tackling and the fact that I couldn't even get a FG on those last two possessions are what really cost me. That was a great game though.

We gotta play again soon.
Next game in Philly.

It's a combination of factors. 1) You usually don't get jack squat for trade-ins anyway and, 2) Nowadays it's a lot easier to do your homework and make sure you buy a quality game.

It's not like when I was a kid and you just bought the game based on the cover art.

I had two 2600's that overheated and burnt out before I finally got my Nintendo. Back then I enjoyed every game I played it seems.

Absolutely.

 

[dave]

Absolutely.

I'll try not to cheese you with Jason Avant so much the next time, but no guarantees.

 

[Twigg4075]

I know you're kidding but you didn't cheese at all. I wish everyone online played like you and just played straight up. The online world would be a better place.

I'm off all day tomorrow if you want to get a game in.

I have to reiterate that I am really enjoying The Sly Collection. I think I'm about halfway through Sly 2.

Always has been that way. Leagues and a select few friends are about the only way to play Madden online.

Twigg if you played someone that was good at Madden you would realize that playing defense in that game is a useless task. SO maddening....thats why people dont fucking play that game.

It is fun when 2 people who arent very good at it and dont know most of the money plays.

 

[hackett]

I like to consider it more of a chess match myself. Even money plays aren't always money and if you can't scheme out of at least 2 or 3 formations...... Well, then money ain't shit.

NCAA football still plays better though.

Pun intended?

so what games did you get for xmas? i ended up getting super mario galaxy 2 for the kids. I fired it up last night and it was great. Seemed a little less disorienting compared to the 1st one. graphics looked great (for the wii) and coop is better in this one.

Do the kids enjoy it? I have some little cousins that I'm visiting in a few weeks, and I was looking at Wii games for them.

 

[Maynard]

they love the game...lots of bright colors and cool characters. plus its alot of fun to play solo or coop

 

[jms493]

im playing vanquish as my xmas gift....game is bad ass.....would be a great rental

 

[Maynard]

isnt that a ps3 game? i recall seeing it got very good reviews. can you post some thoughts?

 

[Buzzman]

Im playing Vanquish right now, its multi platform. Very different but same at the same time as a 3rd person shooter. Its very fast and hectic but once you do basic training at the start hes all very simple to control. Has lots of boss fights and your "mentor" looks like an 80 year old Marcus Fenix.

 

[Twigg4075]

I actually didn't get any games because I just buy games that I want throughout the year.

I did start Kane & Lynch 2 last night. I played co-op with my cousin. While JMS sent me a message saying he wouldn't pay. 99 cents for it I really enjoyed it. Its pretty short but crazy intense. I loved the whole cell phone quality video and it had one of the best shooting from a helicopter sequences I've experienced. The level where you run through competely naked was hilarious. I still have a few cheevos I need to clean up.

 

[Buzzman]

I'll pick up K&L 2 next gamefly sale for $8

it is definitely worth a rental. Single player only like 6-8 hours. Controls are very tight and game play is fun. First boss is really hard till u figure out the best strategy. The bosses are HUGE too!

Love 3rd person shooters like this. Think gears of war just much faster.
