What Game Are You Playing At The Moment?

madeyeshawn · 09-23-2009, 01:05 AM

Im going to be starting the ODST campaign tomorrow after work and will be doing tons of fireifight over the weekend.

Drop me a line if you wanna join me.

Just started Batman, I agree it is awesome. Reminds me of What I loved about Splinter Cell, Bioshock, Metroid Prime, and Prince of Persia all wraped up in a nice Batman design package with the joker as the ribbon. Not sure how much time I will spend on it, I will at least beat the main story and probably return it to my friend as soon as DLC is released on Xbox 360.

I think im about to start a spell of loads of Online gaming with ODST, NHL10, and COD MW2. Possibly even borderlands. Then maybe return to Batman AA next summer when gaming dies down a bit.

ODST is $52 at costco.
ive only played the 1st mission (still playing aion) but i think i just paid full price for an expansion pack.

I second that! But it's still fun and firefight is a great addition. Too bad there's no matchmaking though

I started playing Team Fortress 2 again last week after a year or more of not playing it because my computer wasn't up to it, and damn I'm addicted! Forcing myself to do some homework now before I go play for the rest of the afternoon!

Im very impressed with ODST. Started the campaign on Heroic (solo) and its intense and challenging in a fun way.

Firefight will be the death of me and my free time. Played a solo match on easy AWESOME!! played a 4 player co-op on Normal and even more awesome.

IMO, worth 60 bucks.

I've been playing ODST and NHL10 I'm enjoying both. However did anyone pre order ODST and not get the code to unlock Johnson for firefight? They told me when I picked mine up that they didn't have anymore. I picked it up yesterday, I know that it's two days after the release date, but I wouldn't have pre ordered it if I didn't think I was getting the code.

Recently played the single player of COD4 because I'd only seen it played by someone else before. When I say 'played' I mean 'finished' because it's about five minutes long.

I liked it fine but it's really just a very old fashioned FPS with new/current technology sprinkled on top. I think the most annoying thing about it was realising that I wasn't trying to defeat my enemies but trying to get past the checkpoints that stop them from infinitely spawning out of a tiny shed.

Having said that, it did have some nice surprises and I liked how pretty much every mission is about them screwing up.

When i played it, i was floored by it. It wasnt the technology, or the innovative gameplay. What puts COD4 on a level different than the others is the dramatic power of some sequences. I think i've never felt torn apart like after that damn nuke scene.

Yeah, those are the surprises I'm talking about - they're shocking and well executed (if barely interactive) but the game around them is pretty straight forward.

Absolutely. The single player is something you run through once, and that's it.

PS: AAAAAAAH ! BANE!
