Video Games?

I really enjoy CoD Black Ops and MW3 is due out in November, but don't you wish the campaign mode would last longer? Online is fun but the campaigns could be brought online also if you used head sets, to use for team missions etc

The short single-player content is the main reason I won't pick up games like Black Ops. I prefer to play the game by myself to be honest. If I am going to pay over $50 for a game, I want to get my money's worth. Four hours of single player content is definitely not getting me my money's worth.

I watched a The Old Republic trailer and I got to say the game looks like its straight out of the KOTOR era. The graphics look pretty average and the gameplay looks like its the same from the other games.

Has anybody kept up with the news about the game? I really am hoping I'm wrong and would like to know about the changes to gameplay etc.

I've been playing Torchlight for over a week now. It is a very addictive game! It was made by a lot of the same people that worked on the Diablo games, and you can see the resemblance. If anyone likes that sort of game, I highly recommend getting it!

I'm in my retro phase, playing emulators. The Streets of Rage trilogy and Star Trek TNG for Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) are currently on my list. Unfortunately, the Star Trek game sucks ass.

I got Mortal Kombat on Saturday and have fell in love with it. I hate fighting games, but this game kicks so much ass with all of the content it provides. While Marvel vs Capcom lasted like 2 hours, you could probably put in dozens of hours into this game without needing to go online.

Old school Sonic and the modern Super Meat Boy. 'Nuff said.

The weird thing about this is that the Baldur's Gate series for the PC is nothing like the games from the PS2. The PC games are full-blown RPGs while the PS2 games are, as you said, like Torchlight(as well as Titan Quest and Diablo, two other great games!).

I played Dark Alliance a few times at a friend's house a while back. While they are two totally different animals, both the PC and PS2 games were entertaining. The Dark Alliance games had great graphics to boot!

Misha, what do you think of it? It's not a hard game to get into, and trying to find some good loot is addicting!

There are some great Mods out there, but they are unfortunately exclusive to the PC.

Make sure it's patched up to 1.15!

I loved Oblivion(I played for months and I didn't even advance the main storyline beyond my character escaping from the prison at the start of the game! It's huge!

One thing that I didn't like about Oblivion is that if you became a vampire, and then got the cure, your character looked like a half-vampire, half-melted hybrid. There was some glitch that caused that, as your character is supposed to revert back to what they looked like before the physical changes occurred. Poor Daphne. She just didn't look the same after that. At least I had a save before the changes, so I just got myself healed before the affliction became permanent(so no physical changes).

Have you played Fallout 3 at all? It is a huge game, like Oblivion, and it uses the same engine(Gamebryo) as Oblivion as well.

You know how I like to cap off my visits to Constantinople? By setting the fleet at the harbor on fire and running, climbing, and ziplining my way to my own ship. Good times. Good times.

I've been waiting for over a year for the release of Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

Much to my dismay, Nintendo is (sorta) confirming reports that a new platform is due to be released soon enough..

I just got my Wii, too.

Bullocks.

That game cannot come out soon enough. Well, yes it can. If by soon enough means I don;t have the money to purchase it. I'm glad there will be another "interactive painting" out there--Okami is the other one.
