^Honestly, those games are awesome, the ones that don't coddle you and make you rage .. a lot of games nowadays just basically draw shit in crayon for you and give you everything you want with little effort.

Just started playing Driver: San Francisco. So far it is alright, only on level 2. The missions need to be longer.

It is awesome! The first two levels are real easy, but the missions get more difficult. I haven't played Driver since PS1 and really like this one. One thing that helps a lot IMO is to use controller setting 3 as it it too easy to boost without meaning to do so in the other two settings.

I just finished up my second play through of ME2. What a great game! I cannot wait for the third one.

Now time to find another game to finish up. I still have yet to beat all the DLC for Fallout 3 and I haven't even beat the main quest in FO: NV. Oh, and I'm wanting to buy a new video card for Battlefield 3.

I'm thinking about getting an EVGA GTX 570 Superclocked. Anyone want a slightly used GTX 280 for $80?

I finished Resistance 3, it was better than R2 IMHO. The last 2 stages in NYC were pretty tough, tons of Chimera.

Undecided what to get next, I'm thinking Dead Island (I don't like sandbox/open world games though), Deus Ex or Driver. October will be huge, Batman, Battlefield 3, Silent Hill all dropping within a few weeks.

I love it! It's kinda hard to compare it to anything but if I had to, I would say the cover system is like Rainbow Six Vegas, and if you play it all guns a blazing then it would be like any other FPS but with an actual story that is compelling and awesome, but if you play it all stealthy, then I would say it compares to Metal Gear Solid (all of them).

But the best part is that you can play it how you want and then go back and replay it over and over again using different ways. For each action in the game, there is at least 2 other ways to go about it, whether it is moving from point A to point B, or taking on enemies.

Werd that's how I interpreted it from Game Informer. Like you can bum rush the guards Rambo style or keep it on the down low like a cholo and head around through the unguarded exit door. It's not sandbox style though right? I'm too impatient to be wandering around like a yahoo LOL.

no its not sandbox, but there are some areas that are so huge, you'd think you were in a sandbox lol.

the level designs are pretty much like MGS, and the outdoor/in the big cities area aren't too huge to get lost wandering around like in GTA or Crackdown.

I remember on one level, I accidentally got to the final waypoint without even dealing with a single enemy because I found an airvent and followed it all the way to the end because I was curious lol. I got out of there, turned around and saw all these enemies behind me haha.

1) It costs less in the real world (I'll grab a used copy).
2) I can't sell/trade a download (once it's platinumed, it's gone for the next game).

Well, just picked it up a little while ago. Hope to check it out after dinner, but I'm kind of beat (long day). If not tonight, then Monday. Excited, either way .

I bought Driver SF... I shoulda have tried it out first... its not doing much for me Its OK, but its not as fun as I thought it would be. its OK.

This looks promising, downloadable demo, at least you can try it out. d'ling now. its by Namco / Bandai which is fairly good sign.

PS3 Ace Combat

GoW Origins is a little disappointing. Yes, it's fun and fills in some back story, but it's too short and too easy. I platinumed the first of the two games in just under two days (a little over ten hours of gameplay).

hmm no sign of the Burj Dubai in the demo. that was in one of the trailer videos, I guess that's for the full game.

I had some fun with the demo, graphics are pretty good and it was fun to kinda f*ck around flying around. climb to around 50k feet (even though thats not in the mission).. there is also a helicopter mission. But, it's an arcadey feel. Tough to do a simulator on a PS3 controller.

I never beat Crysis 2, so I just started a new game. Now however, I have the high res and DX11 patch on. Man, this game looks incredible. It's a lot of fun too!

Well, except for the Pingers. Fuck Pingers.

Playing Battlefield 3 and Arkham Asylum. I love the atmosphere of AA but I suck at the game. Gotta get my Logitech Rumblepad 2 working correctly, the mouse-key board set up is awkward for this game.
