What Game/Games are you playing now?

[Vector]

I completed Gears Of War earlier (and I really hate that goddamn final boss. Honestly, it was a complete pain) and I'm going to start on the sequal sometime soon.

Have you tried fighting RAAM on Insane difficulty?

Have you tried fighting RAAM on Insane difficulty?

No, I don't even want to. It took me long enough to beat him on the lowest difficulty.

[Bertha]

The TITAN bosses did get very similar on how it was executed, same for Bane, but the other bosses (Croc, Ivy, Scarecrow) did have an ice touch on testing batman in the appropriate section where their forte is to tackle batman; great game, it's my game of the year personally (for now!).

I haven't played much, so I havent progressed to the other bosses. I did watch my brother play through a lot though. I have to say...the Croc part was a bit disappointing. There was no real fighting...just...throw Batarang and run. Though the sneaking part did seem like fun. I'll play more today and see for myself.

You basically need to hit him in the face with the sniper rifle AND get a perfect reload every single time. If you miss one shot, you're fucked. It's quite challenging, but I remember having fun with it at the same time. The swarm is a real pain in the ass.

absolutely agree with you, for now it's GOTY 09

(but Uncharted 2 will probably take this place)

[Vector]

If I had to guess what GoTY '09 will be(which is silly because there are MANY games left to come out and we're only in September), Batman would probably be a nominee...but I could see it going to either Modern Warfare 2, Uncharted 2 or Halo 3: ODST(because everyone knows Halo games are always high-rated no matter how 'meh' they really are).

[Carnivol]

Modern Warfare 2's in the generic terribly overrated "meh" crowd too (Going by Modern Warfare 1, I'd say it's an insult to Halo to not mention how poor its design really is)
And the moment someone says "But the multipla..." know that Halo's got a pretty solid multiplayer component too, with a wide variety of customization and different game modes... and *gasp* co-op campaign (w/split screen support <3)

By the way, any words on whether or not Firefight is the only co-op mode in ODST?

Also, random note; Not a Halo fan.

(Some of the greatest fun I've had this year has been in Red Faction, Bionic Commando, Resident Evil 5 and a good few XBLA releases... but I'd say your GOTY predictions are probably spot on. GOTY PS3 = Uncharted 2, GOTY 360 = ODST, GOTY MULTI = MW2)

I'm sure ODST will soon change that.. and Carn, you can do the campaign in co-op, and the Halo 3 online multiplayer also comes with it if you don't already own Halo 3.

Nah, the campaign is as well.

ODST only appeared on my radar today, very much looking forward to having seen so much video of it today.

Wait until you hit the random encounters. Nothing like opening a door and suddenly being attacked by a woman with a broken neck.

Ouch, thanks for the warning Canas. Now I have to track down Project Zero 2 and 3. Also got Clock Tower 3 last week, having a bit of fun with that although I think I still prefer Haunting Ground to CT3.

And have also been playing through Final Fantasy: Dissidia, still got a bit to go on that one and I've also been playing through RE1 and Final Fantasy VIII for stuff to go onto YouTube. (I went through Dissidia as Squall at first, and now I've just been doing Quick Battles as randoms, like Ultimecia - who is amazing in it and the references in her script does really put an end to some of those old, old theories about her).

And ODST looks alright - I've already played a bit of the campaign and multiplayer - the Halo fans said it's alright, just bit more of a challenge with it's limitations and a bit different with the plot/time-line jumping.

I wouldn't really know, not a Halo fan or player (personally, I wouldn't have gone to it as I find them rather "meh" and/or boring) but that's just what I saw at the Halo event here.

[Sephiroth]

[nemesiswontdie]

Killzone 2 online.Im trying to get all the badges and what not.

[REmaster]

I bought Alone in the Dark: the new nightmare for 10 bucks and it's still pretty cool, I haven't played it since it first came out. The only thing I don't like is how creatures randomly appear out of the blue, usually behind you, and it takes a thousand years to turn around. However, I like the creepy atmosphere/backgrounds and the opening movie is still pretty awesome.

[Enetirnel]

Hey Sephiroth, which Play Mode have you been on?

I started on Hardcore. Anyway, I've been playing Dissidia too. Need to capture scenes from it eventually, I had an amazing fight as the VIII characters. Absolutely amazing Quick Battle last night.

That's easily my favorite part of Gears 2. That whole level was epic.

[BadWolfX]

At the end of the third act. The whole thing has been pretty damn creepy. The AI and the Sires...;-;

Seems completely different from the rest of the series though. It sort of strays into the Horror genre. I got Resident Evil vibes from it.
