How long did it take you to complete Undead Nightmare, and do you think it's as good as RDR? Did you bother with Trophies? are they as straight forward as RDR ones, I got platinum on that?

I have it, but haven't played it much yet as got NFS, GT5 and PES at the same time.

It's not as good as RDR; it doesn't have as much detail and it's more straight forward. It's less challenging than RDR. Undead is more tongue-in-cheek and the I prefer its humour. I suppose you could complete it in a day. Perhaps five to six hours? I'm not sure. I tend to drift off and do other crap in between missions.

Playing Game Dev Story on Android. Freaking addictive. Also available for iPhone.

I'm really looking forward to playing it, sounds immense. I can see it taking up all my time!

Off-topic quickly: I need 4 more players for the Euro thingy on my sig, Fick you interested in joining? Blu-Ray for the winner ... and its free to enter. Apps, know anyone else who'd be up for joining?

I've been thinking of getting Mass Effect 2 for months now but just can't decide?

I've got about 4 games on the go at min and I just don't think I'd have time to play it. Plus I haven't played the first one and it sounds like I should if I want to understand ME2.

I just really don't want to miss it if it's as good as I've heard.

Would you rank it in your all time favourite games?

Just played the Killzone3 Open Beta, looks and plays brilliantly. The melee attacks are pretty impressive too, someone slit my throat as I strolled past him!

I like it how they've added a few variations to the standard assault rifle. For example, the helgast one can come equipped with burst fire and a silencer. I also like how they lie there screaming in pain when they're down.

I take it you managed to get online eventually then?

The weapons are much improved, the shotgun, my weapon of choice, has a scope now making it easier to aim - but had its range decreased, so I got chewed up pretty quickly from distance.

I got online and got my arse handed to me on a plate, 7 kills 15 deaths in 10 minutes. This is my problem with new maps, I like to run around and explore the environment but get killed for it! Not keen on the new voiceover replacing Sean Pertwee. Ray Winstone just doesn't sound right in the role.

That's why I played with bots first, to familiarise myself with the map. It is a rather large map. What's good, is that they section a lot of it off when you play the bodycount only gametype (I forget what it's called).

I have just started playing "Angry Birds" on my PSP and Iphone. it is very addictive.

I think they are calling it Guerilla warfare now but you can still play Bodycount as part of the Warzone.

I hope there are some smaller maps as I prefer them, perfect for ambushing like Radec and Tharsis are on Killzone2.

I have just finished Halo 2 last night and am going to begin Halo 3 later on. These are definately classics and a pleasure to play them now in succession.

With Reach being £25 now I will be adding it to the collection once ODST is over.

 

[Jonno394]

Picked up Fallout: New Vegas seeing as i've just finished Dead Rising 2.

Enjoying it so far, even though i've barely ventured out of Goodsprings.

 

[Sminky]

Erm ... still Killzone2.

I ought to be top 3% this week easily as well, I scored over 1000 points last night in just 3 (long) games.

You'll spend literally hours doing bigger all in that game!

Did you make it into the top 3%?

Are you gonna jump straight into the multiplayer when you get Killzone3? I always do single player before jumping into multiplayer.

Last week knocked out Donkey kong country (absolutly unreal game for anyone that liked the original)

Then moved onto the PS3 and and clocked Mushroom Wars (minis) A great lil game kind of like cannon fodder with a smell of worms/lemmings/C&C. Anyways a cracker.

Last few nights I started playing the career mode in the new NBA2k game which has Jordans Chicago Bulls side plastered all over it. (The side with Pippen and Rodman etc) On the other hand then you have the classic Lakers side with Magic and the gang.

Tis going grand and is a really good game both visually and play wise, only thing pissing me off is the fact the fuckers play 80+ games in 1 season. :huh:

It will take me a while but the after game interviews and highlights reels do make you want to keep playing on, that and the way they have the drafts and custom players options.

I've never bothered with any of the minis. Was tempted to buy that Shift game, since I like the internet version. Don't know whether it will be worth it, since I can play variations of the game for free on the web.

absultley loving this game..

 

[Phatmann]

I've only just got round to starting Assassin's Creed - the first one - and what I lack in stealth abilities, I more than make up for in my awesome swordsmanship, most of the time. I did start the game a long time ago but only got through the first memory block. It took me a while to get used to the environment and the controls - I must've died 20 times trying to jump off the top of a building without dying, completely forgetting about the "leap of faith" business.

I'm into memory block four now and I am enjoying it as I'm more used to the controls and the map, so I look forward to completing it soon and moving onto Assassin's Creed II which I also have but obviously haven't got round to playing yet.

Still pouring the hours into Fallout:New Vegas.

Just clocked up 20 hours and I still have yet to venture into the Vegas strip or even finish the first main mission to track down the guys who shot you! Unless I start taking this seriously i'll be playing this first play through alone for around 60-80 hours!

Just love walking round with Boone and the ede eyebot, discovering new locations, fighting off the wildlife and storming raider camps, all the while being distracted by side quests and free quests.

I've started playing it again recently. On Hardcore. You should venture into the strip, really. You can make a load of money, plus you get a new safehouse where you can "store" your companions. Which is useful in case you want to change them and don't want to get rid of them completely.

Other than that, I'm playing Dead Space 2 and Dead Space Extraction, LBP 2, and a bit of PES here and there. Will jump back into Assassins Creed Brotherhood when the new DLC comes out.

I loved Assassins Creed II and its a huge step up from Assassins Creed. I've not felt as inclined to play AC Brotherhood though, I will invest more time in it but I'm on a bit of a gaming break. I've got Mass Effect 2 sat in my collection and obviously I can't let Killzone2 rest until Killzone3 turns up.
