That looks reminiscent of Bauldars gate
for the ps2

Its on the xbox360 so I'll check it out.

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.

Torchlight ? Pretty entertaining.

Jodie, don't the XBox 360's have internet access available to them now, or is that just on the PS3? If so, you should be able to get access to a patch on XBox Live wouldn't you? I will admit that I don't know much about the consoles, but it should be available.

Regardless, if you picked up Torchlight recently, it should be the most recent version available(I believe 1.15 came about in February at the latest).

Jodie, I have heard that there are issues with the GOTY(Game Of The Year) version for Fallout 3, but I cannot recall if it was for XBox 360 or Playstation 3. There is some bug that causes the game to freeze. Before you look into it, try to see which one it is. If it is on the console you own, just pick up vanilla Fallout 3. There are still a TON of things to do in it.

And if you get stuck anywhere or need some tips, I would be happy to help you out.

You could access a patch but only insofar as Bethesda has uploaded it for Xbox users. But you'll never get user made patches which fix tons more problems that the official patches did not address (there are fan made patches that fix thousands of problems in Fallout 3 and Oblivion. There is also a streamline program for Oblivion that will make it run much better--I don't stutter even in Sheogorath's throne room! that place is the biggest drag on framerate.)

All Bethesda open world games are best enjoyed on PC. Nothing beats the keyboard for those games although Skyrim might just change that--and I've no option but to buy Skyrim for 360 since my laptop could never handle it.

Awesome! I'm looking forward to hearing about your adventures.

Also, be sure to let me know what you think about the moment after you leave the Vault at the beginning of the game.

Oh yes. That moment. Indeed.

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.
