This one MIGHT be better

depluto · Post by **depluto** » Mon Nov 15, 2010 11:52 pm

I played Goldeneye (used the classic controller) and Bloodstone ... they're both OK but still way behind games like COD on 360.

My favorite game I've played the last couple of months is New Vegas, but that's not everybody's cup of tea. I sure as hell love it though. Fable 3 is pretty good, too, but Fable 2 might have been a hair better.

Also playing the Sly Cooper collection on PS3. It holds up very well and you get 3.5 games for $40. Nice!

Can't wait for GT5.

I found Fable 2 had too many bugs and issues. Tethered co-op was sodding annoying too. Both great fun nonetheless.

I tried out Battlefield: Bad Company 2 last night, nice graphics, very intriging storyline to start out but was a bit jumpy and stuttered at bit. Hopefully it will pan out soon. Right now it is running neck and neck with Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days as far as the next used game to add to my collection. I have not finished either of the games first run but know that I enjoy them both enough (characters, story) to want to play them. They are both down in the $32/$34 range now (and I get 10% off) and I can either get them now, have a good time or wait until they are in the $26 range.

Picked up Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days today on the cheap and did a trade for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 !!! Happy about that...

Also happy about the fact that I purchased the 'Family Pack' for Xbox Live accounts and added another year to the accounts of myself, my son, my daughter and was able to give that other year to my son's friend who just moved to Florida and now they will be able to hang out on Xbox Live and talk via the Xbox camera !! Kinda like not leaving the state !!!

I've been playing Fishdom and Tower Bloxx. Yeah, I know, but they are great time wasters and perfect for relieving some stress in between school assignments.

tHAT OFFER IS GREAT.

The entire package with the four accounts was $99.95... and it lets me control the movie content/game content allowable on my kids 360s. And I can limit the number of hours their 360 can be played a day, or limit the online play or even deny them access to their 360.

Reached the "defend Natalya" stage on Goldeneye. Ugh, now I remember the part I loathed about the original game. She takes forever to disarm the satellite, while you're busy trying to pick off an endless stream of soldiers that come from two different directions (and they have grenades too...yay!). This part is going to take awhile....

Wow, some good deals there. I may have to pick up Red Steel 2 for 9.99.

wow i sell games at those prices thats super cheep i might have to lower mine in the near future

Just got the Castlevania Lord of Shadows plat tonight. That frees me up to start the Force Unleashed II. At some point after that I'll probably pick up the new AC Brotherhood, depending on how long it takes to plat SW TFUII.

I can't believe they offer free shipping too. Couldn't pass up RS 2 at that price. I'll probably pick up a couple more titles later.

Knightt · Post by **Knightt** » Wed Nov 24, 2010 4:48 pm

I will check out Gamefly here soon... and too late, I already picked up Kane & Lynch 2 as well as Bad Company 2 BUUUUT I got K&L for $14 and did a trade for BC 2 but still that is a great deal with Gamefly... I may look into getting

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction $12.99
Final Fantasy XIII $14.99
Blur $19.99

Well probably not Final Fantasy but the other two are great games, Blur is a heck of a lot of fun. Kinda like Mario Kart on coke !!!

It showed free shipping during the checkout process when I ordered Red Steel 2 a couple of days ago. I can't remember whether or not it was priority shipping though.
