MW2, L4D2, and AC2 ftw.

I believe he meant AC^2, as is: Anubis's Cock Squared. 

It's pretty good.

MW2 is awesome. Did you know chuck norris is a character in the game? He comes down with his fist and causes an explosion, death to all, and an instant win.       (aka: Tactical Nuke)

Waiting for x-mas to get AssAssin's Creed II, but heard its coolio yo. I love how Leonardo Da Vinci is your best bud, since I wrote a research paper on him last year, hope he lives up to expectations.  

btw: love dual G18s

Doesn't look half as good ad AC^2, I bet you that. haha

Just got Assassin's Creed 2, but I don't want to play it yet until I at least beat Dragon Age once. (Almost near the end though)

lol I love you Zero

and also epic rofl at 25 Killstreak: Chuck Norris! That's the best joke I've heard in a while actually... good stuff.

Anyway, I haven't dug into AC2 or AC^2, but I'm totally psyched to get around to that. I've been raping small children with my M93 Rafficas and TAR-21's in MW2, and I just got to play a full game of Versus on L4D2, and lemme tell you. It is the shit. I particularly love Coach when he says "MOVE YO ASS AND GET SOME GAS!" when you're filling up your escape vehicle. It's more awesome zombie killing fun like the first game, but there's so much new stuff - not just weapons and characters, but the flow of the game is different; the crescendo events require you to move, not camp - that it feels like a totally new experience. Back to MW2, the story is awesome. Yeah, I know it's short, but at least it's not tediously long. Some people found it confusing or something, but they're idiots. And others said it was too action-packed and should be more battlefield-oriented, but does anyone really want to play this game:

So all 3 games will prolly, nay, DEFINITELY last me this whole year, and probably the year after that.

Haha, you can't honestly say that you've not dug into AC^2.  You know you have.  I know you have.  We know you have.

Today, I just did. AC^2 IS THE SHIT! Still have yet to get into AC2.

I've been playing Assassin's Creed 2 since Tues night and it is AWESOME. Fantastic story, music, and the gameplay is even better than the first. And courtisans are the shiznaz

Wow, way to make your argument credible ahha you pathetic chode ahahaha.

I detect a challenge to a duel.

Hm, I'm about to go out and get a PS3.  Too bad all these games are expensive as fuck.

AC2 isn't supposed to be an RPG, it's an Adventure Platformer CHILD KILLING SIMULATOR (no) that rewards the player for doing missions and exploring. By the almost end of the game, you have fuck-tons of cash, but whatever; at least it's at the end of the game when you can buy all the weapons and armor and then you have time and incentive to use them. I didn't mind the addition of currency to be annoying or a problem - and in fact it's just fun to pick everyone's pockets and then hire Courtisans. The assassination is still fun and every gameplay aspect fits conveniently with the time; money, flying machines, arm pistols, etc. And jumping on people's gondolas and making them jump off is always fun. lol So if you don't like AC2, you can go SUCK A DICK. :D

aight, but I liked Ezio. Altaiir was a Bamf to be sure, but I actually got into Ezio a bit more. He had more characterization; he went from a carefree playboy whose parents are killed to someone who's determined to destroy a conspiracy to a true Assassin fighting against the Templars. So he was even more a believable and dynamic character than Altaiir, which means you're strange. :PPPP

As for the repetitiveness, a lot of people get so angry by doing the same 10+ missions and being able to climb and run around on anything. I just don't really get that. People are spoiled by the awesome parkour gameplay which I loved throughout the game, and the more missions than AC1 were more than enough new content to keep me entertained. I'm pretty sure that since I'm used to repetitiveness from old gen games that it doesn't bother me as much. Alas, today's standards are both too high and too low.

While this may seem offtopic, I'd like to make it known:  This post was just a pleasure to read. haha  Weird.

Wow. Fail at reading JJJ. I HAVE played Assassin's Creed 1, you goddamn moron, so I know what I'm talking about. Oh and sorry that not every game is an RPG. lol I just love that it's actually a reason why you think it's bad.

and as for the Parkourness and whatnot, I am not spoiled by "pretty graphics" - I have MW2 to spoil me for that lol, which also has good gameplay - I'd rather play a GBA game that I loved than Crysis or whathaveyou. Frankly it's a difference of personality whether one can sit down, shut up, and enjoy a gameplay mechanic. People exaggerate the "repetitiveness" of this new gameplay element even though it's just one game old. So, yes, it's just a fact that I can play and enjoy a game's new gaemplay element for a game and its sequel and perhaps more sequels, and I don't have to whine for new innovations just because some other game was able to invent a genre. That's chronologically unfair. Adding to a trusted formula or genre is not repetition or bad design. It's just funny how you hate the parkour element's "repetitiveness" even though jumping and climbing builings and whatnot is what adventure platformers are about. Hence. If you have such a stigma against platform games and non-RPG's, I just can't take your argument of AC2 and just about any other game being a bad game seriously because you're biased against the whole damn genre.

Aight, I'll shove it up my ass. Fits nicely :D

Omg, I'm such a Riot Shield whore. Me, my riot shield, and my throwing knife are unstoppable. Haha, I got MVP with just a Riot Shield I'm so epic.

Lol I hate people who are GOOD with the riot shield, if they're bad, then its hilarious. I like when you get into a 1v1 fight with a riot shield and it last forever,  just running in circles around a truck, maybe getting a punch or a bullet every once and a while.

Right now though, I'm trying for the almighty nuke, and I've gotten 23 kills...grrrrrrrr.....

I've been using a Vector with RDS, akimbo'd Rangers, and Marathon, Lightweight, and Commando. Good stuff. And turns out Demolition is a lot of fun. I get so many kills, bomb plants/defusals, and overall points, as well as challenges, that its an orgasmic blast.

I'm thinking about getting MW2, but I don't feel like spending $60 on a game... So, I'm conflicted! :O

Maybe when it goes down, I'll pick it up, but there's no point in me getting a game for that much which I'm not even going to have time to play. haha

I made finally made a PSN name, by the way:  Capt_lil_johnson.  Yeah.  That's how secure I am.

Uh, the fact that CoD4 was still at $60 until MW2 was released, and now is at $40 (lowest what I've seen), so don't expect to be able to cut corners. It's worth $60, man. Go get it already.

Yes - get it!  Positutly worth  $60

Also, Anubis isn't lying, last spring, cod4 was $50 USED and cod 5 was also $50. So, yeah, they're that good.

(Spoof on microsoft add)

I'm JJJ and mw2 was my idea.

Well I made Half-Life, bitches.

Speaking of Half-Life, I'm looking forward to the upcoming Black Mesa Source (halflife source mod, free, redone and with Co-op) and also Counterstrike: Tactical Intervention, which is being designed by one of the original CS modders, Minh Le. He's implied that in TI the rounds are going to be quicker, there will be innocent bystanders to shoot and (hopefully) nerfed sniper rifles.

But this year's been mostly sequels so i'm buying games from a few years back. Halfway through Psychonauts now.

FREE!!!!?!?!?!? GOD I LOVE VALVe!!!!

And CS:TI sounds cool. I love how Valve is so involved with their community. GAH JIZZZZ!

Black Mesa Source is an independent mod, lol. Theyve comitted to releasing this year

www.blackmesasource.com

Well yeah, that's what I mean. Valve allows their community to pwn. I never played HL-1, so Black Man Mesa Source will be coolio.

Hell yeah! With the meh-ness of Unreal Tournament 3, Valve is now the most mod-friendly game developer. Suck it, Epic.
