mass effect had such a good ending. the unfolding epic story really made up for the craptastic parts of the game.

I am incessantly playing Resident Evil 4 on the wii... I'm on the 3rd run through. It is addictive.

I've been playing Super Scope 6, T2: The Arcade Game, and The Hunt for Red October for SNES. They're the only games in the area I could find that use the Super Scope. I'll continue looking for more though.

Finished it today. Enjoyed the ending immensely.

The big choice you have to make near the end of the game doesn't seem so bad when you can start a new game with all your abilities and items in your inventory again and still have all your party members.

Halo 3 mainly, with a little Rockband 2 thrown in.
I've got Fallout 3, Bioshock and Gears of War that I haven't messed with, because I can't seem to put Halo down.

right now i'm hooked on GTA 4 pretty bad. that game is just so massive and loaded with little details. it really is great. probably the first GTA game i truly like.

resident evil 5 is a complete crock of steaming shit. it's hard for me to believe that a company would go so far in changing everything that made a series great. it went from being a horror game to being a zombie shootout game. so fucking lame.

Play System Shock 2 in the dark.

you can probably find it on torrent and it's old so it'll run on your puter

i haven't played a new sports game in years, and about a week ago i downloaded NBA 2k9 for the xbox. im not gonna say i was totally blown away, but those games really have made a lot of progress visually. if i'd walk in on somebody playing it i could easily think it's a real NBA game.

Galactic Civs II, some Medieval II mods. Got into CIV and Colonization a while back. Might whip up some X-com sometime soon too

COD4 and Company of Heroes online can't be beat to date.

If I had a console I'd consider getting RE5 but I haven't really had the attention for action games since Assassin's Creed

I hate being unemployed

man, it is fucking awesome. make sure you dl all the patches, the released game is always notoriously buggy and crash-laden. with the patches it is totally stable and error-proof; don't buy new version for at least 4-5 months post-release to ensure all patches available. my bro and i played like 8 seasons in spanish league. use maximum size database and ******* as many leagues as you can get away with (go as deep within each league as you can); this ensures max realism and that all significant clubs have reasonable turnover in terms of playing staff.

i had a russian league with Torpedo Moscow and i got them promoted but then got my shit kicked in after that. i dunno, couldn't figure out transfer market, got kind of frustrated since i don't understand tactics and i actually have to watch simmed games so i downloaded out of the park baseball and played that instead

Anyone else feel like Resident evil 5 is really arcadey and a shadow of what 4 was?

Though it does look very polished

i agree, that the franchise took a different turn with 4, but they just couldn't keep rehasing the same stuff over and over. i thought RE5 was pretty decent. me and a friend recently beat it on veteran. that shit was absurdly hard.

but i hear they are remaking the second one.

i personally thought it was better than four. the co-op was really great. it definitely makes a difference if you play with someone rather than the computer. the game was a little lame in parts, but overall i was pretty pleased.
