Not for the PC though...not yet at least.

Developer buddy from work picked it up and says he's gonna lock himself in the house all weekend and 'nerd out'.

I'll get it for pc when it's released.

Yeah, soon as it is out on PC I will get it and do much the same.

I have mixed feelings towards these massive games with huge environments. Part of me likes the simple walk along here, no, you can't go down there, shoot the fuck out of everything stuff...

what bothers me about the huge ultra-involved games is the shear amount of time involved............


it takes a LOT of time to get good at it, to the point where its fun to play

it takes a LOT of time to complete


it just takes a LOT of time in general, big investment of time

Exactly.. too much for me. I just want to blast a few things for an hour or two.

I put about 200+ hours in to Fallout 3. I am most definitely playing New Vegas. But first, I will be playing Vanquish.

That's what i hate about Metroid Prime 3 Corruption for Wii....

Amazing game, great story, fun to play but if you stop playing for a few weeks and then continue to play on a higher level, the controls are complicated and you have so many skills, you don't remember it.


Right now i am playing Just Cause 2 on the PS3, fun game.

Try Just Cause 2.

That's exactly this. If you have more time, play a mission or two, but besides that it's just a huuuuuge island where you can (and have to) destroy basically everything in sight.

True.

HD games on a big flat screen, with a good sound system. And the games themselves, possibilities  seem endless.

Next game i will buy is Assassin's Creed 2.

There's lot's of shit to find out in this game, i love to try stuff with the grappling hook, or just fly around the big cities in an attack helicopter blowing up gasoline stands, lol.

Enslaved looks fun!

Has anyone here played Batman: Arkham Asylum?

That is also on my list.

Chiming in about Arkham Asylum. Easily one of, if not the best games that came out that year.

Red Dead Redemption.  Of course I have owned it since release and beat it in the first week.  In single player there is still much to do and challenges to be met once you have beaten and even gotten 100 percent completion.  The multiplayer is endless and incredibly enjoyable as well.


I will also buy Fable III.  Hopefully Molyneux is less of a bullshit artist this go around.
