I can't make new topics. I get an Error. Anways I'll just post what I was gonna put in here.
Games I've been playing.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Battlefield Bad Company 2 Beta(PS3 only =D), Torchlight, Dungeon Fighter Online, and Dragon Age.
MW2- Epic Single player campaign. Story and feel of it is just awesome all the way through. Kinda short though. Spec-Ops missions with a friend are a blast and some are very challenging on the harder difficulties. Online Competitive multiplayer is fun. Lots of guns, perks, killstreaks, and deathstreaks make for frantic fun gameplay. No dedicated servers and no mod tools very bad. 18 player caps and Peer-to-Peer play can be very laggy at times. Online petition to Infinity Ward by upset PC gamers to add Dedicated Server and Mod Tool support up to 222,817.
BFBC2- The beta is freaking fun as hell. This is one of the first Battlefield games I've played where the infantry combat doesn't feel like a side gimmick at best. Everything seems to meld together so well. Most of the terrain and surrounding buildings and structures are completely destructible. Shell a building enough and it collapses to the ground into a pile of rubble(Killing any inside or destroying Objectives). The damage to the surroundings stays and doesn't despawn after a few seconds. So downed vehicles and such will remain and could now be used as part of the game as cover. Highlight of the day- During a match I was shooting at another guy and he got me but some of my bullets landed on a palm tree next to him severing the tree near the bottom. During the kill cam I was delighted to watch as the palm tree fell on top of him crushing him and rewarding assist kill xp. =P
Torchlight- Fun Diablo style dungeon crawler with some unique features. Best one off the bat is sending your pet to town to sell unwanted loot and then returning with the gold. Saves you using TP scrolls constantly. 3 classes Destroyer(warrior), Vanquisher(rogue/archer), and Alchemist(Mage/Steampunk Tech) All three play differently, but can also be customized to be Ranged, Melee, or Magic user. They have unique Active skills from each other, but also possess many of the same passive skills like Melee weapons expertise(Decreases the Stat/Level Requirements on items) or Treasure hunter(Gold/Magic find Increase). You can play on harder modes and/or add Hardcore(only 1 death) at character creation. It has an in game stat tracker to track your progress. Your pet can also be feed fish you catch to turn him into more powerful monsters to help in tight spots. Only costs $20 bucks and can be a good filler for those waiting for Diablo 3.
Dungeon Fighter Online- Another Korean MMO, but with a nice twist. Did you ever play the old school side scroller fighters like Streets of Rage or Final fight? You know the games that had you punch, kick, or gun your way through enemies as you made your way to a boss. Anyways this game is just like them. You choose your class, Slayer, Fighter, Gunner, Mage, or Priest. They all play very different from each other. The Slayer is a sword wielding berserker type, while the Gunner is the opposite and uses a wide array of guns to kill his foes. You learn skills that you can use to form combos that you can chain to great effect and look cool too. Standard RPG elements with gear from enemies to boost your stats, gaining XP to get levels and new skills, quests from NPCs and parties up to 4 players for taking on the harder levels. Its 2d not 3d so you don't need a killer rig. When you do areas/dungeons you get ratings on your style, technique and how many times you get hit. The better you do the higher your rank gets(SSS,SS,S,A,B,C,D,Etc) and that gives you better rewards at the end and nice XP bonuses. Its pretty enjoyable and at least its not another average Korean Grind fest like almost all the rest. I rate this up there in fun and uniqueness with Air Rivals/Space Cowboy.
Dragon Age- Its fucking Awesome! You know that already though so no need for info.
