Not much has come out recently, so I decided that I try out some games that I might have overlooked. I decided to rent Far Cry 2 and here is a quick rundown of what I think about it:

+Graphically Impressive
+A hefty single player experience
+Fire!
+RPG/FPS system
+Immersive effects (malaria, guns jamming)
-Lackluster story
-50 square km of African landscape grows tiresome
-Travelling becomes tedious
-Repetitive missions
-Annoying guard post stations

Overall: 7.0

Like most Ubisoft titles as of late, it seems so promising, but never reaches it's full potential.

Anywyas, what are you playing?

ahah short but clear review there, i gave the game a higher score though. Anyway, i do play Halo a lot but not as much as i am right now, i had a long break from it, to give it a rest and now its basically the only thing i play, along with some horde, the new maps are extremely fun to play in. In Sep 22 i wont need gears2 horde mode though... So yeah thats basically it, Halo mp for me atm, which is always great.

i agree. it looks beautiful, plays nicely but its so bland and boring. im putting off finishing my playthrough. the only reason im going to is because i want to finish getting the second half of the achievements from the single player. as for me, im playing through undertow, getting the achievements. i only got it because it WAS free, no longer free. i wouldnt recommend buying it. its ok for free but not super. after this (which ill have the last ach. tonight), im going to go back to either resident evil 5, bioshock, or maybe far cry 2.

I am currently playing NCAA 10 (Dynasty). It is pretty sweet (to me, i'm a big football fan) and I am also playing Prototype (just started it) It is pretty good too. Still playing FO3 too, just downloaded Point Lookout ( i love it)

Right now, I'm in a fighter/shooter mode. I'm playing:

Soul Calibur 4

Call Of Duty 4

Street Fighter 4

Virtua Fighter....5 xD

Gears Of War 2

But, since I'm nostalgic, I'm also playing:

Soul Blade (PSX)

Tekken 3 (PSX)

Rival Schools (PSX)

I am enjoying all of them, quite happily. :)

Dead Space on the 360, which so far has been amazing. Best horror game I've played, & I have played a few. Controls are awesome & remind me of of RE4, setting is probably the best of any horror game I've played in terms of what creeps me out (Many people probably prefer other settings) & the sound & way its used (timing for example) is probably the best of any game, period.

Anno 1404 for the PC. Better in every way over Anno 1707. Great game to kill time. I spent something like 7 hours on it the first time I played it. Its even more impressive as it looks so good, even though I can only run it on medium settings.

This whole Summer has been one of the best for gaming in awhile considering what's coming out(then again, I not just thinking about the 360 alone). I've still been playing NHL 09 so I can prep my defensive game in the EA Sports Hockey League in next season's game with NHL 10. Other then that I've been enjoying the Summer Live Arcade games. :D

I've been playing America's Army. Awesome game. Great community.

As for 360, been going through Battlefield: Bad Company's campaign(Itll take me a while, since I've got America's Army, Team Fortress 2, and I'll be getting Battlefield 1942 soon(maybe)

Im playing Battelfield Bad Company. Which is probably the most overlooked game on the 360... Its my favorite game on the 360 right now, and IMO the best...

And whats with Battlefield 1943 being so hyped up, but not Bad Company. Not complaining, thousands play Bad Company, just seems like, come on.

I'm probably the last person on earth to do so, but I got The Orange Box a few days ago and have been slowly making my way through campaign and Portal. Early signs are very positive. The gameplay definitely feels a little old-school, with a health meter (wwwhaa?) and no cover aspect in single-player, but I'm really getting into the story and the environments are lovingly crafted. Graphics are also a little bit dated, however.

Portal is amazing, I'm beginning to understand all the hype about it. I've finished 17 of 19 stages, though, so I'm going to save the last for later. I don't want my Portal experience to end!

Tentatively it's a 9.5 out of 10. Considering it's a full game of 12 hours, two 4-6 hour mini-sequels, a great puzzle mini-game, AND a unique multiplayer component, it's probably the best game you can buy for $20.

At the moment I am concentrating on two games. Sacred 2 : Fallen Angel. The game is amazing. Perhaps the largest world in a game I've ever seen. Definetly a game for people who liked Diabo and Baulder's Gate. Viking: Battle for Asard: Quite brilliant. Much better than I expected. Nice an gorey battles and good visuals.

Freelancer (PC) - I'm playing it for the first time and it's been a great experience so far, I highly recommend it if you are interested in space sims. 9/10 Dead Rising (360) - I bought this ame last year but never finished it, I'm trying to finish it this time but the save system is really terrible for me because I have little time for gaming and if you die in this game you have to replay huge part, controls are not very good either, (8.5/10)

GEars of War 2, Arkham Asylum Demo (LoL), Call of Duty 4, and Sacred 2 Fallen Angel. All of these games in my opinion are extremely entertaining. Sacred 2 has a vast world to explore with hundreds of quests to complete, character customization, and Unique sets and mounts. Call of Duty 4 has awesome graphics and Appealing online play (Rank System FTW?), and Gears of War 2 also has awesome graphics, Story's fun to play through and the online is entertaining for the most part (Lagg Switchers..). Those are all the games I'm playing as of now. Hopefully I'll be playing Arkham aSylum and Wolfenstein soon too.

Right now I'm playing a game called: Spectral Force 3. It's a really fun game (SRPG) that has gone unnoticed by everyone. The game has PS2-like graphics, and has horrible voice acting and poor story, BUT the gameplay is just so damn addictive. Seven out of ten

Currently: Fallout 3. It was GOTY, imo. Also, Ninja Blade is a fun over the top action game that's worth 20-30 bucks.

Lost Oddyssey, im on disc 4 , its actually one of the better JRPGs ive played on xbox. The story is amazingly detailed, its great looking as well. The only problem im having is with the tedious training im doing for my characters to level up. But thats self-inflicted

For 360 have been playing mostly fighting games recently, BlazBlue and Street Fighter IV. It's been fun even though I got my ass kicked many times. I'm probably pretty much done with each of them for now. Also have been playing Monkey Island; it is the first point and click adventure I've played in a very long time, and it's brought back things that I both like and dislike about the genre, but so far I like it pretty well On PS3 I have been playing Shatter, which is a cool little downloadable game off PSN but also doesn't last very long, and Folklore, which is interesting so far.

Recently doing CoD3 but now 1 v 100, disappointing to see not that many people on when it's such a good game. The huge maps and first CoD game with sprint makes it awesome.

I am currently Playing, Dynasty Warriors 6 Empires Samurai Warriors 2 Empires Bladestorm Soulcalibur IV Halo 1,2,3 Cod 3 Cod 4 Guitar Hero 3 Guitar Hero World Tour RE 5 L4D Biocshock (1) All of these games have great gameplay, good graphics, a good story, nice sharp gameplay, and a rockin single play. Except for Soul Calibur IV, it isnt that good, graphics are good, but it is too easy to beat and the multi-play is just like the singleplay

Well, nothing has come out recently that really interests me... but Wolfenstein comes out in a few weeks :D. I have been playing, and I have completed for the first time, Resident Evil 2 on my legacy system (not sure if the name is allowed here...). I am currently playing (and got addicted to again) WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2009 to tide me over until I get Resident Evil: Survivor through the post in a few days... WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW 2009: There is really no reason to get this one if you got sick of the last few unless you love the games a lot and want to keep playing online... Since SvR 2006 there has been very little change in these games, but there is something about them that just makes me keep wanting to buy... :P. The online is very addictive and since I finished Resident Evil 2 a few days ago, my Xbox 360 hasn't had as much playing for a few weeks as it has tonight... :).

playing Bigs2...its super sick but i am stuck at the last cooperstown legends deal where i cant let a run score. i beat the rest on hard and did most cooperstown on med/hard but i refuse to go to easy...its so diffficult. my main gripe about the game is the online, its so laggy that i cant pitch, my record is 2-2 online but thats only because the lag sucks for everyone!
