What games are you currently playing?

Now that the Starcraft 2 Beta is on hiatus I literally have nothing to do after work. I have FF 13 but I have to be in the right mood to play it.

Are there any deep and worthwhile Muliplayer experiences out there? Has anyone here played Red Dead Redemption?

No console FPS games please, people who prefer a controller over a mouse + keyboard are literally the worst kind of people.

Fuck maybe I should start Beatmania again

For some reason, I can actually aim better with analog sticks than with a mouse. Other than that, keyboard controls are usually better unless they put controls on awkward keys like left ctrl.

I don't really know any good multiplayer games since I don't really play multiplayer. Red Dead Redemption got a lot of really good reviews and its multiplayer is pretty highly regarded from what I've heard. You could check out the Mass Effect games too, even though they're not MP. They're still awesome.

Red Dead Redemption is good, I played a bit at a friend's house. Also like I said in your other thread, you should check out Alan Wake.

Also goddammit Stweet Fight.

I watched this review on Alan Wake.

Doesn't sound especially good. I think I'd rather just skip all of the gameplay and watch it as a movie.

Yeah but he hates everything lol. He's funny, but I don't really take him seriously as a reviewer.

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platfor ... lan%20Wake Metacritic gives it 8.3, user score 8.9.

Anyways, did you play Dead Rising? Dead Rising 2 comes out soon, looks pretty nuts. Gamespot recommend Dead Rising as the #2 game to get for 360, so they like it I guess. I kind of wanna get it on the Halo Reach beta... I've never really been a Halo fan, but it looks like they changed up a lot of stuff and the multiplayer is the main focus. Still want Red Dead Redemption as well... maybe if I get a job I can afford more stuff (though I won't have as much time, poo)

Looks like DJ Hero 2 coming out this fall as well.... free DLC right now too for 360/PS3. Maybe I'll check it out depending on the new tracklist.

and the new Metal Gear for psp is out: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/revie ... ear/101072 haven't dusted off the ol' PSP for awhile maybe I'll try it, assuming I can "acquire it"

also i'm a tiny bit stoked for Puzzle Quest 2... first one was super fun http://www.gametrailers.com/video/previ ... est/101084

True, but *usually* he's pretty right on in terms of complaints. He isn't much of a competitive gamer, so I'd skip over reviews for fighters. He also doesn't like JRPGs, so those tend to get slammed as well.

I'm so hyped for this game. I loved the first one to pieces. I downloaded some atrocity called Puzzle Chronicles thinking it would be similar but it wasn't that great. Bad graphics, okay puzzle mechanics, dime a dozen paperback fantasy storyline. Decent enough for 10 bucks but if I would have paid 30 for the DS or PSP version I would have been pissed.

Finished Alpha Protocol but I think I'm going to play through again to get more trophies. This time I'm playing on easy. The AI is so dumb I can just run straight at a guy shooting at me, he'll drop his guard, and I'll pummel him to death before he realizes what to do.

Think I might try for the 5 trophies I have left to get in Assassin's Creed II and then start up another game or finish Dragon Age: Origins. And grind some more on Final Fantasy XIII for money :/

Since my PS3 got the yellow light of death I'm playing Mass Effect. Fixing the PS3 tomorrow.

and the new Metal Gear for psp is out:

It's amazing, i may have only played Twin Snakes and just started MGS:2, but this one is awesome.

[chocobojoe]

Dragon Quest IX

if you love JRPGs and have a DS, this game must be played

[Riot]

Can I "acquire" it on an old R4?

Anyways, mainly just SSF4 and FFXIV beta when it's open.

[DAVE101]

Yeah still playing ITG
