What Games Are You Playing?

Does Bad Company 2 drive any of you crazy? I love it, especially the graphics engine, but too often I die being shot in the back! It bothers me... Any other way doesn't matter but dying this way drives me nuts. I think it happens more often in this game because of the spawn system/squad system, where you can spawn on top of a squad member.

I'm a hardcore FPS fan, been playing them all for years, since Quake 1, but something about this game has me doing poorly, K/D of about 1.0, as low as .80 at times, only above 1 about 1/3 of the time. Is it just me? Does it get easier once leveled up? I'm only lvl 10 or so, don't have many upgrades, and most of the time it's a lvl 50 killing me.

The question isn't what games am I playing, the question is, how do I browse and launch my games.

The answer ....

That's a Media Center plugin called MediaBrowser with a plugin of it's own installed called GameTime!

Awesome Right!?!

As a person who mainly plays first person shooters its taken me sometime to get used to Dragon Age's style gameplay as discussed here... Lost with Dragon Age: Origins - Rage3D Discussion Area. Now that I have a clue I rather enjoy the game. And there was a time where I did enjoy a good fantasy book so the story is right up my ally.

I figure I'm about a third through the game thus far but really am enjoying both game and story. In fact you could say I'm obsessed with the game

Anyways back to DA:O :)

Well today I finally finished the game. Took my time and earned the "Easily Distracted" award for my efforts

For those that don't know, this achievement is for those completing most (i did 75% of them) of the side quests.

After getting slapped around by the enemies I felt I needed all the help I could get; the side quests provided some nice perks, and experience.

Took some time getting use to the play style, but I finished it. Good game and great story. Now I'm trying to decide if I should get awakening, or just take some time off and await Fallout Vegas.

Anyways I’m currently playing nothing right now

Peace

Im waiting for FO Vegas as well :)

As for Awakening .. its pretty decent.

Its also much shorter, with approximately 15-18Hrs of playtime.

No romance subplots to pursue either.

Overall, Origins was far superior IMHO, but Awakening is still good and worth playing through I think.

Thanks Wishmaster,

I think I'll order it at a later date; probably after Fallout Vegas' release.

I'm trying to decide If I want to replay Bioshock 2 or not. I wasn't impressed the first time around.

Same here

Although I did enjoy it.

Just not nearly as much as the 1st one though.

Bioshock 2 was pretty enjoyable, better than first I believe. Now, Bioshock Infinite looks incredible! Also, cannot wait until Fallout Vegas...

You must be the only one on the planet who thinks 2 was beter than one. The overall majority, me included, thought Bioshock 1 was WAY better than 2.

My 2 cents :)

Borderlands 4th DLC is scheduled to be released Tuesday (28 Sept 2010) for $10.00 - Claptrap’s New Robot Revolution.

Can't wait :). Looks like I found something to tide me over for a minute while I await Fallout Vegas. I rather enjoy Borderlands, though I only play it in single player mode.

And I really love the graphics.

Peace

I'm still re-doing ME1 and ME2 as always. Doing it with female characters now. It's pretty cool doing it as female after male as there are quite a lot of noticeable differences while playing. Mafia 2 has had another DLC announced, so I'm waiting for that, and FO: New Vegas.

Also bought a 360, so I'm playing Halo 3 on that, as I'm wanting to play Reach. I started with Halo on PC, then Halo 2 PC, and after 3 years have been forced to continue the story with a 360, lol. And I'm hopeless at FPS on console. It just doesn't feel right at all without a mouse and keyboard.
