The Video Game Thread

I think MW2 is garbage. If the movie Armageddon was a video game, it'd be MW2.

There, I said it. I feel better now.

That said, don't let me get in the way of your Bro Gaming discussion. Enjoy yourselves.

it is a bit sensationalized, but I do have to say they did a decent job trying to keep a lot somewhat realistic... there's a couple parts in the game that I'm pretty sure came straight out of Generation Kill

Way more realistic than MW2, just saying. Highlights at 1:00-2:00 & 8:05.

A lot of the friendly AI in MW2 is just...abysmally poor. I feel like I have to kill 60 guys by myself. Not very realistic.

theres a new dlc/add-on for Resident Evil 5 and it's only 400 MS points

What's a good game to get (other than MW2)?

PS3?
If you like hockey, NHL 2010. If you like adventure, Uncharted 2. If you like cheap online, Fat Princess.

PS3 yes.

Not really much into hockey. I'll prolly get the next installment of the show. I might check out Uncharted though.

As for MW2, i still suck at it, but i'm getting much better. It get's much easier when you start unlocking better guns and perks. I still get killed all the time, but my kills are slowly but surely going up. And as someone else has said, getting familiar with the maps helps tremendously.

just finished up BioShock2, and boy were there some surprises! took me approx 4 days(i restarted halfway through my 1st run, when i decided to be as complete as possible). wont spoil it... BUT THE END BATTLE WAS FRIGGIN EPIC, imhmfo.

I'm playing Infamous right now and so far it's solid but not spectacular. The combat mechanics are good, but nothing special. The open world platforming is decent, but nowhere near as good as Crackdown. The city is really bland. The story and characters are disposable comic book archetypes.

I'm about 20-25% through and so far I'd give it a 7/10.

Installing Heavy Rain as I type...I've been looking forward to this one for years.

definitely agree with this

that's why I really like the Ghost Recon series

I hope they release another 1 that's closer to MW2's aesthetics
