I am ABSOLUTELY loving Alan Wake, btw!

On Chapter 5, just woke up in jail after learning the "Truth."

I'm looking forward to the ending and the two piecesof DLC! THANKS AGAIN, SO VERY MUCH, for the recommendation!!!!!

I think you probably bought the game before I did, but yeah I just didn't want you to return it before playing it.  Very happy you are enjoying it.

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu

I played both Max Paynes on Xbox, they are the TPS versions of CoD but with less variety and even more mindless shooting.

I could have sworn you played them on PS2. Oh well. I think they were overrated games but still pretty cool for the time.

So, I've been paying a bit of this and a bit of that this weekend. Me:

Don't understand the flak this game gets! I like it (so far)!

In the case of this game, PLAYING is believing! If you have a store near you that rents it, TRY it!

F'IN AWWWESOME ! ! !

What have you gentlemen been playing?

Finished this badass game this weekend. I can't recommend it enough. Accesible enough for genre newcomers and with enough challenge packed in there to make even the most accomplished strategist break a sweat.

And started this one. Time has not been gentle with Deus Ex, but I am already impressed by what I have seen regarding gameplay. Even from the get-go it certainly shows this game should not be tackled as a pedestrian shooter.

And got back to U2, thanks to the fine gentlemen at the VGPress. It was certainly fun to hop back in for some rounds. So much fun, that i actually played by myself for a bit this afternoon.

Wait a second... how is Half Minute Hero going to XBLA and not to PSN? How does that possibly make sense?



XSEED published it, so I guess they can go wherever they want.

I finished Disaster Report.

Been playing Sonic and Sega All-Star Racing, RE5 and Dragon Quest 6.  I'm going to focus more on RE5 now and less on Sonic since I acheived the goal I wanted.  Still have to open up all the courses and music.

With some Earth Defense Force and Uncharted 2 multiplayer thrown in.

Not much gaming for me this weekend but I downloaded Crazy Taxi and have been enjoying that. Messed up soundtrack or not, a good game is a good game, and this is still one of my all-time favorites.
