Nabbed it for $20 at Future Shop this afternoon. I've been meaning to get it for a while now actually, and I got paid this friday so it seemed like a good time to pick it up.

Who knows when I'll actually start playing it though. Still trying to push towards level 20 in City of Heroes.

I think that game was severely underrated, especially where the visuals were concerned, it looks stunning. Also, the ending is INSANE in so many ways.

Yeah, the demo didn't really show off the graphics too well (took place in the night) but I've been meaning to play a satisfying 3rd-person combat-platformer. The last one I played was Darksiders, which I thought was pretty good except for the puzzles towards the end. They made me rage so hard.

I wasn't going to, but since Peanut spoke so highly of it, I popped in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow last night for about an hour. The game so far is awesome. The art design is great and the combat is so crazy. I chose to play on the hard difficulty and I'm loving how truly "hard" it is. I probably died close to ten times on the second combat sequence, and the Swamp Boss beat my ass down so many times because I suck hard at the quicktime events. Great so far, MUCH better than Darksiders.

The Legend Of Zelda Minish Cap. Never played it before, loving it.

My favorite thing about that game is definitely the art style. The musical score compliments it very well, too. The gameplay ain't too shabby either, but there were some platforming and puzzle solving mechanics later in the game, that really felt ridiculous to me. Great game though.

Since Dark Souls came out, I picked up Demon's Souls, so I'm playing that at the moment. The game isn't that difficult so far, but it's rather confusing in terms of what you need to do and where you need to go. I'll need a guide of some kind.

Peanut · 10-17-2011, 02:00 PM

The difficulty of those games isn't in playing them, it's in unraveling the complete mystery that is each and every facet of the gameplay. That and having the patience to keep getting killed by random sh*t without warning and not feel like you're wasting your time.

愛 · 10-17-2011, 03:06 PM

I think by the time I get fed up with the game, I'm going to say, "I'm going to kill you, game...and then I'm going to kill myself for even bothering with you."

**Shredder** · 10-23-2011, 12:43 AM

I'm playing Professor Layton and the Last Specter and am loving it since I'm a huge fan of this series. It's the first in a prequel trilogy that takes place before Curious Village. This one also has an extensive RPG sub-game called "London Life," which is available from the beginning, but I'm going to save it until after I've finished the main game.

I also want to get the new Batman game soon. I've heard really good things about it.

BAXTER STOCKMAN 19 · 10-23-2011, 06:14 AM

I am playing Sonic and the Secret rings now.

Volvagia · 10-25-2011, 06:58 AM

I gave in and pre-ordered Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, I can't wait to play this. Pretty sure it's going to be my game of the year.

Be prepared. Castlevania also has some annoying puzzles near the end. Not to mention some shoddy platforming mechanics. But when its all action and beautiful visuals, the game rocks. It's got an epic soundtrack as well. I for one, loved the visuals in the demo.

deadpoolRKO · 10-26-2011, 10:55 PM

Lol. Well it's really fun actually. A lot more depth to the characters than i expected. I thought 1 - 3 sinple moves per person but theres like 8-10 and you choose move paths similar to borderlands system of move choices.

Invader zim's voice actor is KAOS and personally that adds to my enjoyment

Peanut · 10-27-2011, 01:51 PM

I heard it was pretty neat, but the prices on some of that stuff is pretty outrageous. A couple of the displays I've seen around here have been absolutely ravaged, though. I guess someone did something right.

deadpoolRKO · 10-27-2011, 03:44 PM

Yeah they are i work at toys r us and kids have been going crazy buying like every figure ever since it came out. Another genius move is you have to have one character of every element to beat the game. So its at least $100 any way you look at it

**Barkworm** · 10-28-2011, 12:14 AM

I bought Gears 2, Arkham City and Deus Ex (Did it bomb? It was ridiculously cheap.). Now to find the time to actually play any of these games...
