Can't wait for the third this year!!

On the subject of new games I played Dead Space 2 with some mates the other night... oh my

Dead Space was epic.
So are you telling me that Dead space 2 is not?

Haven't got any of the expansions since World Adventures though, maybe I should fix that...

I Love Resident Evil 4!!!!

I had three Rugrats games, the original on the Playstation used to scare me for some reason

I miss my Playstation...

It's not that scary for a horror game but it's amazing! Other than the regenerator parts

Ordered Dragon Age: Origins today. Even though I have tons of school work to catch up on. Woop woop!

My brothers played the first one ad nauseum. I know they'll be getting this one today.

If you ever get the time, try Demon's Souls. That one is an arse kicker. It's really morally defeating because it's just about impossible to defeat.

Completely off topic, but I must compliment you on the refreshing use of "arse" on the board rather than the Americanism. The board needs more British arses on it

Why, thank you. I am quite the arse.

Anyway, my English grandparents taught me well. My boyfriend is from England as well, so they're trying to get all the Americanism out of me, I think.

You mean they'll be getting Dragon Age II today? Playing the first one ad nauseum seems good, the combat looks a bit so and so but other than that it looks great so hopefully I'll like it.

Yes, they're getting part II. I'm wrong about the date, though. It comes out the 8th.

I'm getting something much more interesting: LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4.

I approve! I have it for DS and it's so much fun, though I have almost completed the game and have yet to unlock Severus Snape to play as him

He's my favourite character so it's not exactly fair lol.

That game is endlessly fun, it's amazing how much fun an adult can have with LEGO

You'll have to fight me for him.

When the Harry Potter movies first came out, I bought just about everything, including the $200 Hogwarts castle. Anyway, they made Snape's face green. WTF?

Definitely my favourite of the Final Fantasies! I've been obsessed with the Thief series for a while now and highly recommend the fanmade Thief 2X to anyone who enjoyed the originals. Right now I'm playing Dissidia and Assassin's Creed on PSP.

It took me years to appreciate and grow to love FFVIII, for years I loathed it with a passion. Then, I played it again last year and fell in love. Two words. Triple. Triad.

FFVII, IX and X are all tied for my favourite at the moment, apart from FFVII being #1, this list changes constantly

RickRobert · #45 03-30-2011, 05:09 PM

Well Dragon Age: Origins and II were amazing

But they ended the latter on a freaking cliffhanger!! So roll on Mass Effect 3...
