Re: The Video Game Thread
Got through 30 levels of horde tonight with some random people. I had the least kills but man, I wish "assists" were a statistic. If I had a dime every time I got a down and someone robbed it..

Re: The Video Game Thread
I tried playing Killzone 2 again, but it's just not doing it for me. The gameplay is bland, the characters are annoying and the environments are technically impressive, but boring. I don't really understand the high ratings this game has received. Perhaps I'm just brunt out on FPS shooters.

I ended up having fun with it. It wasn't anything unique, but I don't have to have that type of thing at this point. It was a well made generic FPS and I'm cool with that.

Once you're powerful enough to explode some heads with a single shot, VATS gets even more fun.
Fallout 3 was everything Oblivion was supposed to be except even better. Quite good.

Achievements baby! That game was a blast to shoot for a high score with. I'll rent it out down the road and nail all the achievements you can get with the DLC.Jocephus wrote:well well well...tamman has 1000 GS for fable 2...and im the GS freak?!?!

Re: The Video Game Thread
Has anyone played Halo Wars or Command and Conquer 3 on xbox 360? I'm contemplating getting one of them, but i'm not sure how an RTS would play out on a console.

I haven't played either, but I read If you play a lot of RTS's on a PC you won't like them. Of the two, Halo Wars is considered the best because it was built with a console in mind.
