Game: What game are you currently playing??

[Penner]

I finished Singularity a day ago and i agree with pretty much everything in the post above.

The whole high-res textures not loading thing was pretty annoying because it happened ALOT.

The TMD is what really "made" the game for me tho, i especially love the "Deadlock" ability, it's just pure fun :P
(Plus is looks like a Rasengan, lol)

Deadlock is one of best skills in game, but i loved bashing enemies with their shields using Gravity.

Some Steam games that I bought while on special:

2K package - contains Bioshock 1&2, Borderlands + other random stuff

StarWars: Knights Of The Old Republic

Left 4 Dead 2

Was also tempted to get Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising and Team Fortress 2, but decided to save up some cash, considering that I have at least a dozen (not exaggerated) PS3 or PC games untouched and/or unfinished. (probably 85% of my PS3 games I haven't played)

[KrayZ33]

operation flashpoint isn't even worth 5 bucks
you shouldn't buy it

[animus]

You should definitely get Team Fortress 2, though. According to Steam I have 380 hours clocked in. Half of that's skewed wrong however, since I used this idle thing that sat in a server and collected class items and weapons when they first came out.

When Steam/Valve got around to finding out about it they removed all the items I collected =[

Indeed TF2 is worth it - get it as soon as you can man. It'll take some time to get used to it - but it is one of best multiplayer games ever created.
L4D2 is also great(l4d is great too) - if you got friends to play with that is - i hate l4d with some random strangers.

[Buffalobiian]

Ah, well I've missed the TF2 specials now.

On the other hand, it's Crysis' turn to be cheap(er).

Is it really worth playing, or was it more about eyecandy and less about a revolutionary game?

[animus]

There's a lot of eye candy, and there's a lot of boring.

[Xelbair]

Crysis? boring as hell, only graphics are good.
warhead is a bit better but is really too easy(i was playing on hardest diff and it felt like easy)

[Psyke]

I'm playing Transformers: War on Cybertron on PS3. Got it after reading good reviews on IGN and gametrailers. However, it only confirms the fact I can't appreciate US made games that well.

[darkshadow]

Everybody bitches on crysis' gameplay because that's the only thing they could bitch on, which initially came from ppl being butthurt they couldn't run it properly. While I would agree that it's not it's strongest point, which are obviously the gfx, it's definitly not a bad game.
In fact both crysis and warhead have been critically acclaimed (and no the full package, not just the gfx).

So just try the demo and see how you like them.

[Xelbair]

I was able to run it at full details on dx9, but it really was boring as hell.
You could use invisibility, aim at head, turn on Armor, fire and then go back to invisibility to play through most of game without dying on hardest diff. Exceptions are tank mission and those Korean supersoldiers.
It it was more like far-cry it would be way better. Far cry was one of best looking games for that time, but i also had really solid gameplay - it was hard too.

[darkshadow]

Just played a bit of Beat Hazard, and it's pretty awesome. It's on sale right now on steam (till 1900 gmt+1), so if you can spare 2 bucks, check it out.

....stuff....

Yes you could do that, but that's your decision, which means you actively made it boring for yourself. I had a blast just running/blasting/punching/throwing the hell out of people.

thats what I wanted to say too... you can decide whether you go stealth, or agressivly with str/agi boosts.
however I got bored too
but I don't like Far Cry and the likes in general.

Just finished Persona SEBEC Quest two days ago (finally!!!) and today I managed to finish the Persona Snow Queen Quest (it was more short than I expected... 12 hours vs the 55 hours of the other quest)... so Im ready to start Persona 3 Portable this weekend

Im also playing Shin Megami Tensei (IV): Strange Journey on my DS and Star Ocean Last Hope International on my PS3.

I should return to Shin Megami Tensei Digital Devil Saga soon though... I left it aside since september... dang.

[Xelbair]

I'm running again through deus ex series.
Damn, i need to borrow ps2 from my friend(he does not use it anymore) to finish persona 3 and 4...

Borderlands is a pretty tight game. I think it shits all over Fallout in terms of pacing, gameplay, graphics, humor, violence, mischief and malice, and overall simplicity of story. So basically it shits all over Fallout in pretty much every category that matters, probably even sound.

I count Borderlands among Assassin's Creed and Uncharted 2 as true next gen experiences. Everything else just pales in comparison, especially if you compare a game in the same genre to it. Dragon Age? Pfffffft. Spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate? Yeah, right. Spiritual successor to Neverwinter Nights, more like. And apparently Game Informer's next magazine cover has the reveal of Dragon Age 2? I hope the Official PlayStation Magazine straight bitch slaps Game Informer and gets the scoop on Borderlands 2. That would be tight.

I'm at 98.7% completion on Red Dead Redemption. I'm doing some outlaw stuff now in order to try to get to 100% because I don't know what else I need to do. Maybe I need to break a few more different types of horses or some small tasks I haven't done. It's a pretty awesome game. Very immersive and fun, though frustrating at times. I can't believe they're still using pretty much the same engine from the early GTA games but it works. I've spent 45 hours on the game.

Alien Swarm

Launch Trailer

[Xelbair]

I'm playing alien swarm too - me and my friend are doing 2man runs(tech + Special weapons/Med+Special Weapons) - it is fun but i think that left 4 dead is more funny :>
Also i'm once again back to CoD MW2 - the game is so awesome that i can't stop playing it.(5th prestige right now)
