Look at the balls on that guy..

Ill stop before you get defensive and say you aren't.

Iron Sky Invasion.

Gameplay and graphics remind me alot of Star Wars X-Wing sim and Crimson Skies style type of missions.. Finished it yes I know it's short but still, the gameplay is decent.

I just finished Duke Nukem Forever's The Doctor Who Cloned Me DLC, and it was pretty awesome, so much more like DN3D. The dialogue was hilarious.

In the mean time, I've ordered Dishonored Special Edition, and I have WWE '13 sitting on a shelf waiting to be played as a prize once I finish my essays for this semester.

How long is the DLC? Worth reinstalling DNF for?

Picked up Deus Ex Human Revolution for $10 on black friday.. It's alright so far..

It has a pretty good story on my opinion . Worthy of even being considered canon. And really, that's what made me keep playing because everything else about this game isn't great.

The combat system is weird and could have used more defensive elements to it. Most of the time you pick your best offensive ability over and over with not a lot of strategy to it other than go for the archers first. The only battles that were tough were with Valarr.

Sound isn't great. The two main character's VO's are decent and Varys and Cersi are ok. Everything else is bad. Not even great music. They don't even have the full intro of the song playing in the beginning.

It doesn't look good either. Looks like it could be on the PS2 or maybe the vita.

But overall, a pretty bad game and the only reason I kept going was to see was because the writing is what saved it.
-------------------------------------------
*EDIT*

And you know what, fuck it I'm done with Soul Calibur V too. Couldn't get into like I did with IV. I tried a couple of times but just couldn't do it.

Working on: Blops 2, Need For Speed: Most Wanted, The Walking Dead, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Deus Ex, Spelunky, Dead Space 1&2, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Assassin's Creed: Revalations, Dear Esther, Trine 2, Super Meat Boy, Metal Gear Solid Collection, maybe Portal 2 co-op

And then I'm done beating stuff for the year. I'll chill out online with Blops and NFS most likely. I may try to start The Walking Dead around Christmas but we'll see.

Black Ops 2 (PC, Online)
Legend Of The Dragoon (PSX)
Alone In The Dark 4 : The New Nightmare (PC)

Actually, I think I'm done with Soul Calibur V. I couldn't get into it at all.

It may be my first victime to be sent out on either 99gamers or VGFive since Goozex is dead.

I took it slow and it took me around 5-6 hours, give or take. For me the humor was the selling point, especially one scene where Duke get's shrunk down and has to escape in a talking barbie car, it went a bit Toy Story but then went right back to tits and one-liners. If you can get the DLC cheap I'd say it's a good Sunday afternoon type game.

I bought Forza Horizon on Black Friday for like $15, still kind of raced out from Forza 3 but I figured it was a pretty good deal for that price. I can't tale it seriously though. Tha main character looks like a dark haired Paul Walker and I keep expecting the next Fast & Furious movie to break out at any time.

<font color="#ccffcc"> Games I have played this year

GTA IV - 91 - Upon replay, Instead of powering through the story I took time to sort of "live" in Liberty City. Really added to the game.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - 97 - Still my only complaint is so little variety of monsters that pose a threat.

Crackdown - 80 - Fun to dick around in

Bioshock - 95 - Love this game so much, going to replay it soon and then start Bioshock 2.

Dark Souls - NA - Haven't played enough to rate, don't hate myself enough to play atm.

Red Dead Redemption - 96 - Replaying due to a fan theory I have, will post upon completion.

Mass Effect - NA - Haven't played in forever

Currently Working On

Mario Party 9
Metal Slug 7

Played Mario Party 9 mostly for a nephew who loves Mario but is too young to actually play games yet. He enjoyed it and all the changes done pretty much make it a lot faster to go through each board,

SNK got pretty lazy with Metal Slug 7 since its as short as other games in the series but has no multiplayer nor takes advantage of the extra screen like Contra 4 did.

Finished beating this classic game remake Karateka. Used to play it on Apple computer looong ago.. Now the remake looks like Mulan Disney style anime. Yeah yeah, most of you think this is shit because of the graphics update but the gameplay is good. Kinda like Tyson's punch out rhythm type of fighting. Listen to the music so that you can attack at the right time.. That's about it..

Another one that was very easy to beat. Well, the single player was. Multi player had some legs to it but got very repetitive quickly and I found myself bored most of the time. Mostly because you had to unlock a lot to remain competitive with the field and if someone has already unlocked certain mods they'll be difficult to beat or take down. Some shameless rubberbanding in this game too. The map is a bitch to look at and needed to be zoomed out to work efficiently. Went to my custom soundtrack after about 40 mins too. I was looking forward to this but overall, it was disappointing.

Multiplayer is better than GoW 2 but the story is still meh worthy mostly because it still tries too hard at times to be serious while being all over the place or silly at other times. Besides Dom, everyone else is too goofy or "bro"-type to pull off a serious moment.


Currently playing:

Portal 2

Baring a random new purchase those 2 should be the final games left to beat for the year or at least Kirby will be.

I picked up Kingdoms of Amalur.. Pretty good so far..

Largely still Borderlands 2 thanks to the DLC. Also Dishonored, DOA 5, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, WWE ’13 and Hitman: Absolution. Gonna wait a while on B.O. II and probably pass on Halo 4. Never been a big Halo fan.

Roxer, you should give Street Fighter X Tekken another chance. The online play is way better now. No more lag or annoying sound issues.

Akuma still sucks, I guess, but there are lots of other great characters.

Best Buy sent me a $10 off my order christmas coupon that I had to use before christmas. So I went and picked up Kid Icarus for the 3DS.

Looks pretty cool, came with a nifty stand too. Might start that up pretty soon.

the original is still one of my favorite NES games of all time

Think I’m like right at or very near the end of Dishonored. Playing through the mission A Light At The End...

Far Cry.

I just downloaded it and I have no idea what all the fuss was about. It's not because the graphics are outdated now, because I kinda stopped playing games when games looked worse. It's just a dumb FPP, nothing special.

Still playing Borderlands 2. Have a 50 Siren and my Zerker will be 50 by the end of the night!

WWE 13 is additive as hell too. I am going to pick up Skyrim again here soon for the Dragonborn DLC. It is out, just not at the top of the priority list right now. Dragon mounts will be EPIC! Those are the main 3 I rotate.

Dead Space sucked. Wasn't even very scary. Felt like the space janitor or space maintenance guy or space errand boy. Go here, go there, go here, go there. Fucking annoying.

I really liked the downloadable Motorstorm game because I thought it was the best looking 3D game available. This one looks pretty good too but it is boring as shit. There was also this 800 mb thing to download which took FOREVER. I only did the first like 7 races which I don't even think is a chapter before I stopped playing. Beat sgand's times though.

It was really short but also really good and maybe the best thing Telltale Games has done in years. Also learned being too honest makes everyone think Lee is a creep because of the kid and old white guys pretty much hate black guys.

I wish arcade games should've been like this back in the day.. Forget Virtua Fighter or Street Fighter.. This is the real deal. Real actors fighting in real time backgrounds. Minus the Mortal Kombat fatalities. :p Love it.
