What Game/Games are you playing now?

[Alexia_Ashford]

Just curious...which 2011 360-exclusives are you interested in then?

I don't just play the 360. I'm interested in the 3DS and a lot of titles which are coming out for that, Gears of War 3 and Mass Effect 3. All current/upcoming PS3 exclusive titles don't interest me and that's why the two PS3s in my house are mainly to play blu-rays.

I don't just play the 360.

I never said you did. No need to get defensive. I was simply asking because, I don't care what anyone's tastes are, PS3 has a much stronger lineup than 360 in 2011, especially considering the only 360-exclusive you could mention was Gears 3 since Mass Effect 3 is no longer exclusive. Most of Xbox's 2011 is gonna focus on bullshit Kinect hand-waving crap. I own all 3 consoles but it's easy to see that the PS3 is the best option for gamers this year.

I'm not defensive. You asked what 360 titles I'm gonna play this year, I said I don't just play 360, and my main interest was the 3DS and its line-up. Don't see the relevance considering I just said the PS3 titles don't interest me, and they don't. The 3DS is the main console for me this year, handheld or not. It's not just bringing new games out which I can't wait to play, but it's renovating one of my favourite games (Zelda: OoT). I've been a Nintendo fan for every generation except this one and (perhaps) the last one (The PS2 was obviously the best console last generation). ME3 may not be exclusive but it's the only console where you can make a Shepard from start to finish and not have to resort to a short narrative where you only make key decisions and that's it. I wasn't out to make it a competition of how many 360-exclusives I could mention, you asked me what I was interested in and I told you. The 3DS is the best option for gamers this year in my opinion. Bear in mind a main interest for me in consoles at the moment is the indie games, which the PS3 doesn't offer at all. Even one of my favourite arcade games (Super Meat Boy) isn't on PSN. I've not seen much of the 360's line-up this year but I imagine most of my time spent on it will be indie games, the summer of arcade and GOW3/ME3. Other than that, my year is going to be on the 3DS. <3

Did Microsoft forget to throw money at publishers this year?

Most of those games are either being made by Sony devs or the IPs owned by Sony, all the money in the world will not get those.

Also: No More Heroes: Heroes’ Paradise is just a port of the Wii game (which blows, btw).

[Zombie Fred]

This year is all about PC, oh yes. Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Dragon Age 2, Mass Effect 3, Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, and many more, has got me stoked. My new PC rig will be ready to play these in max detail with Direct X 11 so I can't wait to soak into the art and visuals the artists will come up with.

For now I am looking forward to the PS3's lineup more, home console platform wise, due to some of the big titles (Kill Zone 3, Resistance 3, and Uncharted 3) I have enjoyed on the platform so far. And the upcoming homebrew updates is going to be great to adding a nice few tweaks and features that will better fit me. But I am curious to see what Microsoft will show at GDC/E3 for some of their core title reveals, they always seem to keep a few good surpises.

But hell everything this year is going to great for all consoles, it's going to be one of the best damn years in gaming (1997, 2004, 2007 anyone?) and we've still got plenty of juice left out of all the systems.

LOL @ another platform battle.

Playing Metro 2033. A good shooter. Thats all I can say for now.

[Alexia_Ashford]

It's not another platform battle. I'm just saying none of the PS3 exclusive line-up interest me and 2011 is going to be a year for Nintendo for me. I don't defend Microsoft just for the sake of it, I just prefer the console and prefer the games on it. I preferred Sony last gen and preferred Nintendo every gen before that. I'm fickle. I prefer whichever one pleases me best that generation. It's not for a lack of trying them, I've tried Killzone 2, LBP, Uncharted 1 and 2. Just not that into them.

The 3DS on the other hand, I'm very looking forward to. I love the Nintendo DS, I've had a blast on it and it's my favourite handheld ever and I enjoy it only slightly less than console gaming. The 3DS has a fantastic line-up and the 3DS has much more power than the DS, and a lot of my childhood loves (I was a huge N64 fan) are coming to it. And on the virtual console, I'm going to be able to play my portable Zeldas like Link's Awakening etc.

Sniping in BC2V is awesome. In a around I had 20 sniper kills and an 8 kill streak.

[Mr. Spencer]

Well that's it, ladies and gentlemen. Under mounting political pressure and economic sanctions placed upon me, I have buckled and caved in. I have bought World of Warcraft. The terrorists win.

[nemesiswontdie]

I sold my soul to Satan.

Thats pretty much what I read.

Any expansions or just vanilla? Omfg noob my lvl 80 purple gear owns urs lolo

Nah, just the vanilla game. I don't care about levels and shit.

[Vector]

So there are now three video games that have made me cry in my life. I feel silliest now though, considering I'm a grown man, but I don't care. MGS3 and MGS4 made me cry as a teenager, and now the secret ending to Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep has me wiping snot and tears up and down my sleeve. Best fucking ending in the entire series, hands down.

It leads directly into Kingdom Hearts 3(I hope), however far away that is. It kills me. It sucks. Square pulled the KH team to help on Final Fantasy Versus XIII, and even that game is far away. I wouldn't expect KH3 for at least another 2-4 years. This upsets me greatly.


Also started playing White Knight Chronicles tonight. Seems decent so far.

My lvl 85 Death Knight > your 80 purple gear.

One of the main things of the game is the leveling aspect I am pretty certain that you will get the expansions eventually. My advice to you is to not get lost like Dot50Cal.

Personally I played all the content of Cataclysm right before Christmas and then logged off, I still have not logged in again.

I found Dot50Cal. Been speaking to him all evening on WoW, been helping me level up one of my characters. He wants you all to know that he's doing fine and that he's counting on all of you.

My other character is a level 10 Lumen Sage.

[Zombie Fred]

At the moment I am soaking my time into Metal Gear Solid: Peacewalker. It's going quite decent so far but the biggest thing I am hating so much is the god aweful controls due to the psp analogue setup. I'm tempted to just download an application to allow me to plug in a PS3 controller to just play the game (hate having to not be able to look around while moving. Also the sensitivity from slow to fast is shit).

Lol, is he ever considering on checking the forums being that of his position?

I played on the first day Cata launched and didn't enjoy it because it was so ridiculously busy in the new areas that I couldn't even finish quests. I also don't like how you have to find heroics in Cata before you can use Dungeon Finder.

Knowing your sense of humour, not sure if this is serious or not (don't think it is). What server you on? And what is your character really?

Mine are on Terenas and I have a lvl 80 human paladin, a lvl 40 human warrior, a lvl 10 worgen warrior, a lvl 64 human death knight and a lvl 67 blood elf paladin.

John (dot50) was on here earlyier and was on 360 the other day. spencer must of been joking on the subject of wow since of the issue on playing with John on wow since of the server restrictions with EU and the USA,which John and Spencer situation is, since they are In different areas and how blizzard likes to be a bitch on preventing the two to have the option since of the filtering and security features the game knows by tracking the ip and location of the person, haha.

[Trent]

In any case keep the jokes coming!
