|  #1 Posted on 27.8.10 1542.12 | Instant Rating: 10.00 | (ongoing sticky post? something I should've just put on my blog? let's find out)
Tried the demo of Joe Danger yesterday. Or at least three levels, until I just couldn't figure out how to do multiple backflips or turn around in mid air and gave up. It seemed like a decent time waster but it didn't grab me as particularly fun or interesting.
Also played the one hour trial of Red Faction. I'm sure I'll end up playing most of these, just to see how many trophies I can pick up before the clock runs out. This one did seem interesting - playing space terrorist against a hostile government by detonating buildings probably should get me placed on a watchlist but it's a neat idea - but I didn't grasp all of the mechanics of the game and it seemed like they threw you into doing repetitive missions very early on. If I was renting games, I'd put this in my queue to give it a large play. (Also: Trophy Count: 1 bronze, 1 silver!)
So, what are you playing?

| #7 Posted on 27.8.10 2341.23 | Instant Rating: 3.94 | Red Dead Redemption. I echo the statement of "best game ever". I beat the game about two months ago, yet I can't stop playing. The multi-player experience is ridiculously fun...and unlike other multi-player modes, I can beat some 14 year olds when playing! Highly recommend.
I'm going to have put the game away in a month and a half though. There is no way that I will be able to divide my attention between Fallout 3, Fable 3 & Red Dead Redemption. | hansen9j

| #11 Posted on 30.8.10 0732.23 | It's Red Dead for me. I can spend so many hours on that game it's ridiculous.
However with everything else coming out in the next little while, it may get a rest. My EB pre orders list is long
Fable 3
Rock Band 3
Kinect
Dance Central
Your Shape
Fallout: New Vegas
and I think Assassins Creed 3 is in there as well.

I'm in my eleventh season of NCAA Football 09-- it starts in the '08 season, and I'm now in '18. Starting in 2015, my Kent State team has been a member of the Big Ten Conference; we won BCS bowls in '13 and '14 leading up to that invitation. As a member of the Big Ten, we've won three consecutive national championships. I've been playing the living heck out of Mass Effect 2; I recently completed my first playthrough with an almost-fully Paragon soldier; he ditched his romance, Liara, from ME1 in favor of Tali. Everyone survived the suicide mission. I also just beat it with my mostly-Paragon but a little more Renegade female biotic; she was with Kaidan in ME1 but Garrus in ME2. I couldn't retain Jack's loyalty; she died in the suicide mission. I'm now going through the game again with a full Renegade male biotic character; just retrieved the Reaper IFF. Looks like someone's gonna die in the suicide mission, also, since I didn't do one of the loyalty quests in time. Let's see... prior to my recent massive Mass Effect 2 playing, I've been playing through Zelda games I have on my GameCube. Beat Ocarina of Time again; Majora's Mask is still in progress; near the endgame of Twilight Princess. Also I've got a sudoku book which I pick up and play on the go or in the restroom.

| #15 Posted on 5.9.10 1233.41 | Instant Rating: 2.77 | Well, my full Renegade biotic character in Mass Effect 2 (John Shepard, who retains the default appearance) had everyone survive the suicide mission after all; I didn't complete Legion's loyalty quest beforehand but I didn't use him until it came time to hold the line. I brought Tali and Jack with me for the final battle and had Mordin escort the crew back, as usual. John was also the first ME2 character I've had who stayed true to his ME1 romance, which in this case was Liara.

You italicized that like you were bragging, but your game's been out for two years, and mine's been out for two months.
I just broke down and picked up Madden 11, and I am doing a franchise using the "fantasy draft" option. Anybody like playing it better that way? I only did it because the rosters will be updated next week with all of the cuts and roster shuffling, and I'd never done it before now and I'm kind of digging it.

In the last five weeks I have bought Madden 11, Metroid: Other M, and as of tomorrow I will own Halo: Reach (and a Halo: Reach Firefight night is coming up this weekend with friends).
I still have Fallout: New Vegas coming up next month.
