The Gaming Lounge: Beyond - Part 3

Wow, how do you manage? You already seem to have played every major title out there lol.

Haha, that wouldn't be a far off assumption. I mean theres a few triple A titles iv passed on, but not many. I purchase at least one game a month.

Altho, after posting what i did, i realized how many games i actually did have stuffed under my bed and figured those are the ones i really wouldn't play again, so i sold em to Amazon. 100 bux for like 12 games.

Let's Play Mari0 With Geoff, Gavin, Michael, & Ryan

EA in the running for "Worst Company in America".

 

[Havok83]

This isnt the early 00s. I really dont think EA is that bad.

 

[The Squirrel]

I do.

Has anyone played The Bigs 2 (baseball)? Is it any good?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

EA definitely shouldn't be up there if Activision isn't.

 

[Wolfwood]

Are reader's votes counted in to this? Cause backlash from Mass Effect 3 could be a factor.

 

[Soapy]

Eh, Activison hasn't been as agressively stupid as they were a year or two ago.

Sega loses 7+ billion yen, downsizes, cancels games

I can't say that I've had any interest in a game made by Sega in years, so I'm not super surprised.

 

[Soapy]

Yakuza is fantastic. You should feel ashamed for not playing it.

 

[Donut]

Sucks for Sega

 

[Havok83]

They had so many great franchises back when they were making consoles. I wish they made a push for bringing back their old IPs with new games and really work on the quality so they dont suck. XBLA/PSN is a perfect platform to test that out kinda like they did with Sonic 4

 

[Electro UK]

Well I just spent a week of my life trying to remember my 8 year old SHH login details on a new laptop.

Turns out my name is Electro UK, not Electro_UK

I just beat Infamous 2 and got the good ending. Sooooo pissed.

Spoiler

I mean, it was a good end to the story, but damnit! I want more Cole. I suspect that flash of lightning at the end might be a sign that he is actually alive. And a death/reboot would be a good way of putting him at square one if they wanted to do a sequel. If they don't though, then I'm perfectly fine with the closure we get in this story.

Yea some people think that bolt of lightning is shaped like a question mark. Who knows....

So one of my facebook "friends" posted this:
"Society has stooped to an all new low when video games called "Bully" are promulgated. Anyone game for public outrage?"

I'm honestly not sure what this mean, but I'm guessing he's Jack Thompson-ing the whole thing and not analyzing the full situation.

He's my boyfriends old roommate, who is also gay, and a republican... he's a backwards bigot, and if his response is as ignorant and moronic as his status, I'm deleting him.

 

[StrainedEyes]

Man, they need to make Bully 2.

 

[Soapy]

I still really want to play the first one.

Also, someone is outraged over Bully? Have I gone back in time to 2005??

 

[Master Chief]

Maybe he's talking about the documentary? Hahah that's the only explanation I can think of.

Anyways, I picked up Ridge Racer Unbounded on Sunday. I thought it was supposed to come out today but I'm not complaining hahah. It's pretty awesome. It's fair but very punishing if you mess up lol, one crash and you're dead last.

 

[Havok83]

Man, they need to make Bully 2.

same here. I was expecting a new gameafter GTA 4 as that game had references in there. I thought that were hints to a new game coming. I especially liked the backstory you got from watching that reality show on tv and in radio spots. I thought that could have been a setting for a new game

 

[ProjectPat2280]

I never did play the first Bully. The kid on the cover always looks stupid to me so i passed. Everyone i talked to that played it tho seemed to like it.

That's what I thought to, and wanted to say it, but held that in.

Rockstar has been talking about possibly starting a Bully 2 after Max Payne 3 is finished.

 

[StrainedEyes]

It is a really fantastic game with a great atmosphere and soundtrack. It's probably dirt cheap right now too, so I suggest you get on it.
