DOOM is flawless.

And when I say flawed, I'm talking issues that directly impact my enjoyment of the game in a large way, not silly little graphical bugs. (Although in Saints Row's case, graphical bugs add to the enjoyability.)

Graphics. Story.

Got into the Tribes: Ascend beta. I never thought skiiing of all things would be what arcadey shooters needed, but it works brilliantly.

Finished Skyward Sword. It's a definite 10/10 and it

sets the stage for the entire series.

Now I have the urge to replay Twilight Princess so I'll be grinding away at that for a while. It's been about 4 years so it should feel fresh.

NNNYYEARRGH I have to get this and play it possibly even before Christmas! ;_;

(As for that spoiler... I'm pretty sure that's not a spoiler, it's something that's practically in the press releases. At the very least, it was in a multi-page preview thingie I read in a Game Informer.)

Played Left4Dead, to test the "inferior" nVidia Geforce 6200 card I bought, and well, to my surprise, it worked pretty well even with my specs a bit lower than low.

So damn good. :) Gonna try a few more games to see how far I could push this rig. Not bad for much of the parts made a few years before the game debuted.

I'm always cautious about spoilers, just because I'm always courteous of peoples' virgin game experiences, but I was talking about some specific events. Did the articles go into specifics on

who the Zeldas really are and why Ganon is reborn so often?

Unfortunately, Zap, I can't reply to that, because when I first replied to you I hit the quote button forgetting that I'd be able to see what was inside the spoiler tag, and I'm not going to take the same risk twice!

Yeah, see?! Spoilers just ruin everything, man. You just go play the game and we'll talk later.

I don´t know if you guys know Tribes: Ascend, but it´s a really fun game and somehow I got into the closed beta through a friend´s key.
And apparently, if you apply for the CB at their website, you´re almost guaranteed to get a key.

If not, I can PM you one.

The game itself is pretty interesting FPS, as you are able to ski on the ground and use jetpacks to gain momentum to fly across the big outdoor stages.
Weapon-wise it´s your usual sci-fi stuff like grenade/rocket launchers and that stuff.
Highly recommended if you like Quake-ish games.

Reminded me more of Halo than Quake, but I see the comparison.

I really like the game. The skiing mechanic really changes how the game plays compared to other FPSs.

I'm still playing Skyrim. I haven't play it in nearly two weeks because I've been really busy with work and school. I'm almost done killing the Silver Hand since I'm doing the Companions quest missions.

I already finish the Dark Brotherhood two weeks ago and too bad that

Everyone pretty much dies in the Dark Brotherhood

Just answer this: does eternal love have anything to do with it?

It's because all the good players left for MW3 (or are still playing Black Ops.)... I believe this because I recently played CoD: World at War and... well, I was in the top three for most of the rounds I played. I use to get my butt whooped in that game so bad that it was pathetic.

I'm already loving the hell out of Skyward Sword. I've only had a few hours to play it thus far, but the Link/Zelda scenes are my favorite cut scenes in recent memory. Playing out like an enjoyable youth romance. I have a soft spot for youth romance. I hope the dynamic continues once I find Zelda again.

Have you done the Goddess ritual yet? I hope you keep posting your thoughts as you play. It's fun to hear what people think as they progress.

Bomby von Bombsville · Postby **Bomby von Bombsville** » Fri Dec 09, 2011 12:21 am

I did do the Goddess ritual. It took me a while to get used to the Loftwing, but once I got it finishing the ritual wasn't that hard.

SPOILER: Show

I was actually worried for a while that Groose was going to win, until I realized that it was designed that I would eventually win no matter what.

Well, not sure if that's really a spoiler or not, but you never know.

Thinking about trying out APB
I know it isn't that good but its free and DAT Customization
Even if I don't play it I'll create a cool character and be happy enough. I'll get around to it later tomorrow, maybe. I'm too distracted by Batman: Arkham Asylum.
