Then it's really not a complete remake. :o Multiplayer was what GoldenEye was all about for my two cousins, brother, and I.

Finally ordered Sin & Punishment: Star Successor. Saw it for $30—a price I was satisfied with. (Lately can't justify paying $40+ for a game unless it's something I'm REALLY anxious to play—like Shadows of the Damned.)

Also bought and beat Limbo last week. Really fun, but so short.

Love that game. Was thinking of picking it up for ps3, since I traded it in with the rest of my 360 collection a while back.

I'm playing Bayonetta which is kind of cool but also kind of annoying.

I don't think the difficulty is a problem since the game's got a great learning curve (that's not to say I'm not dying a billion times). The cutscenes are what's bugging me, they are retarded as f*ck and way too drawn out.

I'm about an hour into Sucker Punch's Infamous right now

Seems like a pretty by the numbers super hero game so far, but I'm hoping it becomes something special.

EDIT: I take that back. The problem I have with the game so far is that it doesn't really feel like a "super-hero" game, as I expected it would, so far at least. It has more of a gta'ish "urban" feel to it then I was expecting. The power's are great, hovering and zipping across the city is a blast, but I'm hoping to run into some more comic book themed guys with cape's and such (ya know, all that cheesy good stuff)

I finally finished Splinter Cell Double Agent on Saturday and started up Resident Evil 3:Nemesis right after passing Splinter Cell DA and finished it on Sunday.

I'm still working on GTA IV but I;m treating as a side game due to just doing side stuff in that game. It could get a little boring. So later today if I have time I'm going to start Mario Galaxy 2. HELL YEAH!!! I've been playing Smackdown vs Raw 2011 too and I'm a little mad. It feels like if it was rushed out and not finished.

I'm playing GoW: Ghost of Sparta. Since I hadn't used the PSP in ages I had almost forgotten how awkward it is to play games on this piece of sh*t. The game is cool but not exactly surprising in any way.

I've been playing Infamous on and off for that past few months... I find it extremely repetitive at times and not in a fun way. Sure citizen, I'd love to rid your apartment building of Reapers and explosives... I've only done it five times today. But I guess that's the life of a hero, or to be expected in games such as this. No offense Infamous die-hards... I DO like the game. There's just a couple of things I don't like.

I know what you mean about it feeling repetitive, although anytime they threw something at us from the sky, be it a blimp or a plane, it was a welcome change of pace. The city feels organic, the platforming is a blast, and the comic style is great. But, the enemies have become a real bore to fight. I have grown tired of zapping guys all over, with an electric pea-shooter.

If Infamous 2 can throw us some more interesting enemy types and keep the whole "evolution of a super hero" idea going, then I think I may fall in love with it.

Don't you guy's hate those "Which game should I get" threads and posts?

Yea, me too. I'm seriously torn here though, so while I am not asking you to tell me which game I should buy, I am wondering which of these two, if any, you will be picking up. Also, any pro's or con's you can think of when it comes to a purchase. I've played both series and love em pretty much equally.

Assassins Creed: BROTHERHOOD

or

Cod: Black ops

Black Ops. Though I'm a fan of MW2, I think Black ops has substantially more replay value than AC2. And didn't you say you had AC2 for 360 previously?

Also, AC2 is insanely cheap, as most Ubisoft games get. You know what? it's gonna drop more.

If you're already debating or considering Black Ops, you're probably the type of person who would get a lot out of it. So, I'd say that's money well spent.
