Predator: Concrete Jungle (PS2): You fu-ked up on Earth 100 years ago, allowing the humans to get ahold of Predator technology. Now they're using your own weapons against you. It's time to clean up this mess and redeem your honor. Mostly by skinning things and hanging them upside down. I went into this game having seen only a couple gameplay clips on youtube, which led me to believe I'd be killing pimps the whole time. Everything from the control, to the graphics, to the story, turned out much better than those videos let on. It's a good thing too, because my last few game purchases have been kind of disappointing. I needed this!! Ofcourse, I'm only two levels in. If it does start to suck, I also bought Bloodrayne 2 & War Hammer 40k: Fire Warrior. So I'm set, unless they all suck... So, what are YOU playing!?

Haven't played anything much in a long while. But I did just rock some Boggle on the DS when I was crapping about 15 minutes ago. ;D

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Totally addicted to the live play. Haven't felt this way about a game since I was a kid, and wish there was a way for me to quit my job and play anytime I want for as long as I want with no distractions. Damn it...

No spoilers! ;D I don't know if I get what you're saying. Is it because Modern Warfare is like the most fast paced, fun online game you guys have played, you have no desire to try anything else? Honestly, to me, Modern Warfare is a dirty word. Whenever someone says it's their favorite game all I hear is, "Games are for fucking nerds, loser, but Modern Warfare is fuckin sick bro!" ...anyway, I started BloodRayne 2 and it's real cool.

I'm a gamer. Have been since my introduction to Mario Bros and Duckhunt. But when you're addicted to something like MW2's live gameplay, other games feel......less potent.

That's what started my disdain for Modern Warfare. When I first got my PS3 I made a bunch of online friends on Warhawk & Resistance and we all got COD4 when it came out. I enjoyed it for a couple months, then I wanted to move onto other games, but none of my friends stopped playing Modern Warfare. We pretty much never played anything together again. It was like drugs destroying high school friendships. It took a while but I finally met some cool new people on games that are considered horrible, like Turok, Punisher: No Mercy, & CellFactor: Psychokinetic Wars. I just prefer old school arena shooter style games and it's kind of cool having smaller communities where everyone's friendly. So, I'm sorry for hating on Modern Warfare, but whenever it's brought up I'm reminded of the friends that it took from me. Plus, it blows my mind that people don't want to experience the huge variety of games that are out there. I just love trying new games. Just like with movies, it's awesome finding those hidden gems that weren't well received but you end up having a blast with.

I understand. Never once judged you for disliking COD, broski. It's a slippery slope.

Switching between Dragon Age and the GTA Downloads. Ctyler, I really don't understand what that post about Scott Pilgrim/MW2 means. Elaborate, if you could.

AvP has poor controls, and no one ever plays online.
I was enjoying Red Dead Redemption until someone stole it.
And I loved playing Saints Row 2 until my brother traded it in.
I dont game much. They bore me so. Except for MW2.

I got Saints Row 2 when it came out. Played for a couple weeks, didn't do too much, got bored, then just plopped in cheat codes and blew the fuck out of everything. Then forgot about it. I really should play that again some time.

The campaigns are pretty damn fun though, I thought the Predator's was great. Also, I don't get when people say no one ever plays online about most games, they might not do COD numbers, but there are always plenty of people on just about every game, even Turok. You Modern Warfare players boggle my mind!!! ;D

I thought MW2 was dead dog dick. The campaign was fun, the online was for shit. No telling how many times I respawned and was dead before I could even flick the controller stick.

I don't know why you guys have such bad luck. I could count the times that's happened to me on one hand and I've been playing the game for the better part of the past year.

I started a new game of The Thing (PS2) and I'm appreciating how well done it is more than ever before. Hoping to finally see if MacReady shows up.

I had that and enjoyed what little I played. Sold it soon after getting it because there was something else I wanted more and figured I'd rather get a good resale value on it and use the cash on the new game.

Not playing anything right now. I'm thinking about maybe getting Mafia II on Tuesday, but then again...I might not.

I had the first Mafia. Lost interest eventually, it was just too loose and flaky. Saw the demo was available. Have you tried it yet? I think I might go grab it just to see.

Alan wake, takes place in my neck of the woods... it really gives you the feeling of running around a Washington state park with a flashlight and shooting mysterious shadow people in the face after blinding them, and I should know because that's like every other weekend for me (is it possible that I'm the bad guy? no no no I'm quite sure they all deserved it).
War for cybertron, if you are Transformers fan, this is all kinds of awesome, if you're not, well have fun playing with your small penis!
Modern warfare 2: I think I'm done with this game, it used to be fun, but I've seen unprecedented cheating in the last month, everything from Army of one, to invincibility, all the way to auto aiming (I'm sorry, you shouldn't be able to snap onto my position when faced away from me, and I've already drilled two into your back). I'm really hoping the next one stays glitch free.
R.I.P MW2, it was really fun at the beginning.

No, I haven't played the demo yet, but I've heard good things about it. Being the cheap bastard I am, coupled with the fact that Dead Rising 2 comes out next week (and I have a feeling I'll be playing the ever-loving shit out of that game) might lead me to wait for a price drop on Mafia II before I get it though.
