Yeah, that one. It's pretty good so far, and it looks great on my PC (Not many games do).

$8 at a swap-meet (flea market) almost half my life ago!

Haha, nice. I bet it brings back some great memories.

That's why I don't particularly like using my PC as my primary gaming device. If you don't keep up with the latest tech, you won't be able to even play the latest games (let alone play them in the best graphics possible) - it's not exactly cheap either, especially graphics cards and such.

Anyway, are we expecting a review?

A review? Maybe, but you should expect a bit more before that.

What do you mean, a bit more?

As in a few things between now and that review.

Well, that depends when that review will be. If it was tomorrow, than I won't expect you to churn out anything before that.

But if it's weeks away, then yea I expect something more.

Yeah, it'll probably be a little ways away, with some other stuff posted between now and then.

That'll quell the rioters.

Sorry, haven't been on these boards in a while. I currently have Metal Gear Solid 4, LittleBigPlanet, Killzone 2, and Uncharted. I got the latter 3 games with the system. It was on sale and my brother paid for half of it, so lucky me ^_^

Keeping on topic with the thread, while I got MGS4 I also preordered the ultra-sexy Metroid Prime Trilogy.

You have quite the cold. Unfortunately, I am pretty much horrible at any fighter that isn't Smash Bros, although I have been interested in trying MVC2.

No wonder you're not on here much with so many games to plow through. If I was you, I'd be spoilt for choice in what I wanted to play.

Anyway, to stay on-topic, I bought Advanced Warfighter 2 (for extremely cheap) yesterday. I heard from a friend that it was a good game, and there's also co-op which is good.

I haven't even touched Killzone and I've barely played Uncharted, so I definitely have a lot to play through. With Wii Sports Resort and MGS4 out of the way, I should be able to at least complete one of those games before the best compilation in gaming (next to Orange Box and Mario All-stars) hits.

I remember playing the original Killzone, it wasn't great. It was fun to mess around in multiplayer, but single-player could've been better.

Speaking of WSR, I'm still waiting for my other M+.

Original Killzone... *shudders*

Second one seems nifty enough though. I enjoyed the (PAINFULLY SHORT) demo

I think I'll be ordering the second Mana Khemia PS2 game (with preorder goodies) tomorrow

Anyone played the Batman Arkham Asylum demo? I thought it was pretty good, although I'm not totally sold on it yet.

I thought it was pretty good. Stealth elements were pretty awesome, but I'm not really a fan of the combat. I like it, but I guess I have to play the full game to understand why it's getting such high scores.

I thought the combat was pretty good, although in the demo you can literally WALK AROUND your enemies. It was funny as hell.

I just borrowed BioShock and GTA IV from a friend, and bought Shadow Complex and Fat Princess, so I've got a lot of gaming/reviewing to do (I still need a PS3 mic :\).

Sounds like you've got plenty of games to burn through. I haven't bought an actual game for a while due to being busy and lack of money, but hopefully I'm going to pick up something soon.

Speaking of GTA IV, anyone seen the trailer for The Ballad of Gay Tony? Seems like Rock* are putting the crazy OTT action back into the game. Oh and a parachute!

Yeah, can't wait for that to come out. I've been busy playing Pokemon Platinum for the past week. It's not a huge upgrade from D/P so far but there's a lot of small changes that make the game a bit better. It's probably the best of the "3rd" versions.

I probably should've got it later though. I stopped playing Metroid Prime 2 just to play a slightly enhanced version of a game I played 2 years ago.

I had considered buying Pokemon Platinum but never did because it still costs quite a bit and I have Diamond already.
