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.

Ah...I totally meant Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood

Good stuff though, thank's for the reply. I think I'm just going to buy them both. I'm usually able to pick one over the other, but I'm split even on this one. I think they'd make for a lot of variety if I can pace myself and switch between them daily.

Got a bunch of stuff for my birthday, most importantly a Kinect and Dance Central.

So. Much. Fun.

*XERO* · 11-09-2010, 10:33 PM

How is the Kinect thus far?

Peanut · 11-09-2010, 10:41 PM

I'm honestly blown away by how much I like it. Adventures is kinda lame, but it's a motion controlled pack-in, so I didn't expect much, but the tech is there and it works.

Dance Central just blows my mind, though. As I sit here in bed, I wish I was still playing it.

*JameO* · 11-09-2010, 11:36 PM

Black Ops. I enjoyed the story and think the online is a lot better than MW2. The whole purchase system and contracts are really neat and the killstreaks are a lot better in my opinion.

It's crazy, isn't it? I really thought I was going to hate this thing, but it's pretty mind blowing. The tech works, and even Kinect Adventures is mildly amusing (at least more than Wii Sports was new). Dance Central is just mind blowing. If that isn't a system seller, I don't know what is.

Now I can't wait for the Michael Jackson game.

CoD:BO. Gotta say I'm EXTREMELY happy I rented this and not buy. The campaign is awesome but the Multi-player is a huge let down when compared to MW2. Plus the explosion from greandes make them look so weak. And the killstreaks, and perks, just suck. Bring back commando!

*Turo602* · 11-13-2010, 07:36 PM

I played and passed Kane and Lynch 2 Dog Days over the weekend. I will get back to it so that I can pass it on Extreme. It felt and looked better then the first one but wasn't as great. It was also too short. I miss grenades!!! The ending was empty but I guess it gives them a reason to make a 3rd part. Kane and Lynch have a real messed up and tragic life but for a 15 dollar game it was good.

*Turo602* · 11-13-2010, 07:37 PM

I ordered Dead Rising 2 and should expect it to arrive some time next week.

*Dr. Doom* · 11-14-2010, 08:49 AM

Playing Fable III. It's fun and all, but is missing something in its spirit that made such a deep emotional connection to the world and it's inhabitants in Fable II, which as a result, was like a religious experience for me. So it's disappointing in that way, as well as in the way that so many things, specifically the gun play, were simplified. Looks a hell of a lot better, though.

JAWS UNLEASHED

Watched the original a few days ago, and got in the mood for this one.

**Barkworm** · 11-14-2010, 11:47 AM

I played through both GoW: Ghost of Sparta and Bayonetta. GoW was an underwhelming experience. Sure, it looks amazing for a PSP game but the overall gameplay was not that inspired.

Bayonetta was pretty awesome. If you're not into over-the-top Japanese humour, stay the hell away from it though.

*Cure* · 11-14-2010, 02:53 PM

Bayonetta is indeed pretty awesome. What was your favorite weapon to use?

**Barkworm** · 11-14-2010, 10:23 PM

See, I didn't really use any weapons, haha. I just blasted right through it. A few days later when I was watching a couple of youtube videos about it I was like "Wait, why does she have a sword?!" lol

RiddleOfRevenge · 11-15-2010, 10:18 AM

I'm currently playing "Okami" on the Wii. This is the only version of the game that I've played. I've never played the Playstation 2 version. I believe it's exactly the same game anyway, only the Playstation 2 version uses the normal controller and the Wii version uses the motion controls. Apart from the controls pissing me off now and again, it's a brilliant game so far. I'm inside the castle on Oni Island at the second save point.

The artwork is fantastic and I highly recommend it to anyone who is into adventure games.

Ha, I get you. I liked switching it up between combos and whatnot. Made me feel hardcore.

*Turo602* · 11-15-2010, 06:00 PM

I started Army of Two the 40th Day with my brother yesterday. It is totally a step up from the first one. Overall it's a great game and the action is awesome!

Thunder Chunky · 11-17-2010, 10:18 AM

I'm currently waiting on a new xbox but atm i'm playing Silent Hill Shattered Memories and Resident Evil The Darkside Chronicles on wii also playing some old ps2 games like the Punisher and completed crash bandicoot wrath of cortex last night lol

*Dr. Doom* · 11-17-2010, 11:46 AM

I've pretty much had to give up on Fable III because it becomes so frustrating towards the end. All the stuff about it not feeling the same and being simplified was bad enough but it just stopped being fun for me. What a revoltin' development.
