Well, I wasn't really commenting on that aspect. I'm just kind of flabergasted that shooters are still such a big deal to most people. Granted, I play several and I enjoy them, but I'm not excited by many of them anymore. I mean, they've been a driving, over-saturated force in gaming for so long that such excitement for yet another is like... yeah.

Don't get me wrong; I may end up getting Modern Warfare 2 at some point in the future. I'll quite likely enjoy it too, if I do. I just don't understand why it's such a big deal. I had a similar problem with the Halo franchise; though I suppose I understand the excitement for this one a lot more than I did for that.

Well, the thing is, Its not really "just another shooter", when it comes to gameplay, MW has some of the best their is in my opinion. With that said, the main reason it can break so many records is because ALOT of kids play it. When I went to pickup my preorder, their was at least seven 12-16 year old kids picking up preorders with there mums, some were even getting the prestige edition. Oh, the other reason It's popular is because of casual gamers like college frat boys and stuff.

FFXIII has lost the game.

I'm a little surprised at who is singing the main theme but the song is really very pretty, and sounds like something I would have heard for Final Fantasy 10, so I'm all good with it a_thumbs.gif
So I don't really see how they 'lost the game.'

Or is this a case of it's a Japanese game, so only 'Japanese' singers can sing for this series rolleyes.gif

The japanese version is worse.

All the new-era SE FF's had the worse theme songs ever. They lost the game because A) I think this fake. B) I don't think the song as in the beat has nothing to do with the game's mechanics.

What I like about this :

IT'S LEONA LEWIS. WATISTHISIDON'TEVEN.

FFX had Overworld. Best theme evahz.

I personally like the Japanese theme song, I don't mind this English one either though. Both of these songs suit the game well in my opinion.

I have never played a FF, but from what i can tell, they are fairly sad stories, or at least, they have alot of sad parts, in which case... that overworld song is a terrible choice.

Just watched someone play through the last parts of AC2...

The ending was WTF. Honest to god, WTF. I'm not gonna spoil it, but it's just... odd.

I'm still gonna play the crap out of it though. But it looks like Ubisoft will be making Assassin's Creed III.

Yeah, but now the ending definitely confirms it. I expect a reveal about it either end of next year or at E3 2011. It's definitely coming, along with MW3.

It was always meant to be a trilogy. That was confirmed a long while ago. And why would you ruin the end of a highly anticipated game like that, instead of just playing through it on your own?

DERP HERP. I'm still gonna enjoy it lots, Shauna.

Since I didn't see the entire storyline, I'm still gonna play it through. biggrin.gif

Plus I'm at my dorm room most of the year, and get to see my PS3 maybe once or twice a month. Not enough time for me to beat the game, so spoilering it wouldn't be too bad. I only avoid spoilers if I actually have a week of sitdown to play.

But now, not playing my PS3 for so long, is just meh. XD

Thanks. tongue.gif

One of the conditions on my parents paying for my PS3 was that it stayed at home. I agreed to it. So it stays at home, and honestly. I don't trust my roommates, and I certainly don't trust myself. You give me a game, and my grades will drop.

Good games are indeed addictive like other drugs (Not that I'm saying I actually do other drugs, because I really don't). biggrin.gif

Every time I get a good game I'm always up past 2 or 3 in the morning playing and sometimes even seeing daylight come (I feels way bad and tired after seeing the sun come up).

I may put ACII on the back burner and wait a while, I usually buy games in bulk with a better deal including super saving shipping at amazon and right now I've been thinking about getting (Halo 3 ODST, Uncharted 2, and Call of Duty MW 2) after some good deals show up of course. happy.gif

Did anyone see the New Super Mario Brothers for Wii commercial? happy.gif

First time I've seen somebody 'buy in bulk' for games. Iunno, man. Next week is Black Friday. As good as my Canadian stores get, the American gaming stores always has better prices.

I just don't know if gamestop can offer good enough deals on new released games like amazon can. I know they offer those ridiculous deals were you trade your old game for hardly nothing or trade so many for 5-10% off of a new game but that's about all I heard of game stop offering.
