Lego Rock Band.

Its so drawn out. Just doing the Rock marathon to see if the Veteran Performer Trophy is glitched.

Despite owning it and it's expansion on Xbox 360, I just purchased the $90 Dragon Age: Origins Digital Deluxe Edition + Awakening for only $55 on steam for my new gaming quality PC.

Nothing to be ashamed of. I've repurchased several console games on PC just to run them at stupid resolutions. Its always worth it.

One of the best remakes I've ever seen.

I kinda knew for a while that this was gonna happen. Seeing all my friends on the PC version made it clear that this is a PC game above all else and that's how it must be played to enjoy it completely and not have dog **** textures and an extremely limited UI.

I passed Crash of the Titans, It was a good game overall and made me miss the original ones. I also completed all the Left 4 Dead campaigns. Doesn't mean I'm done with these games. Crash, I still need to repass it on my 360 so I could get my achievements, and Left 4 Dead still has some juice to squeeze out.

*Cure* · 07-08-2010, 11:05 PM

Playing Crackdown 2. It's pretty cool with the right friends.

I am an old school gamer. Finished the NES Ninja Gaiden series last week. Awesome games!

GameStop's online site told me that Red Dead Redemption was only $24, so I went to the store, and they told me I was wrong. I was mad, so I picked up Deathsmiles. Love my shooting games.

Of course you wouldn't have gotten it for that price in-store. It was their Power Hour sale. Available online, for one hour.

Then again, you likely wouldn't have gotten it even if you ordered it online.

I started up Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow. So far better then the first. The only thing that bothers me is that Lambert doesn't have the same voice actor.

Update: I finally finished Tomb Raider Anniversary.

Red Dead is worth the price though. One of the best games I've played all year.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 07-09-2010, 09:31 PM

i got Family Feud off the Playstation Store the other day. i like it

*Storm Eagle* · 07-10-2010, 08:13 PM

Kicking it old school here, guys. I got Duck Tales on the NES from someone on eBay.

The chances of it being available on the Virtual Console seem to be slim, so I figured I should just go find the actual cartridge. As you can see, it even comes with the box, jacket, and instruction manual.

*Ninjinister* · 07-10-2010, 09:33 PM

Just played a few rounds of "Press Your Luck 2010" on Wii with my mum. I'm not one for game show games (although I did enjoy watching Press Your Luck as a wee lad), but bless her heart, she has a blast. Even though she prefers to get the Whammies rather than amassing funds... but you know, I'm glad to go over and play something with her every so often.

Great purchase, Storm Eagle. This is without a doubt my favorite NES game.

Thanks for the props. I've played it before, and even finished the game (once with the best ending), but for some reason I got the urge to be able to play this game again.

The only problem was that it didn't seem to work when I tried it the first times. Then I cleaned the connectors and then it started to work properly. I even played through the whole game, so everything should be okay now.

An NES game not working right away? Unheard of.
