Goddamnit I need my XBox back. I'm dying to get my hands on Prototype and Arkham Asylum. I need to get back into Bioshock, too.

I want to play Prototype so bad! It looks fucking awesome. It IS fucking awesome.It's fun sometimes to just roam around and not pay attention to the missions at all. Yeah, I love shit like that! I always end up just screwing around in Sandbox games. Like, I'll always just steal a motorbike and explore the country or something when I play GTA, haha. I've been stuck on Shadow Link for OVER a year now. Seriously, every time I try I get fucked up, and none of my friends who have beat the game can do it. I've never beat the game because of that damn mini boss. For real? Shadow Link is one of my favorite parts of the whole game, that scene where you walk into the room is so intense. I always just use my sword, but it might be easier for me because I usually have the Big Goron's sword by then so I don't have to hit him as much. But yeah, the hammer would probably work the best since DL doesn't have it so he can't defend against it.

Shadow Link intimidated the shit out of me initially. I cheated and went to GameFAQs and then he was a breeze.
That cow is hilarious.

Din's Fire works best on Shadow Link. Just be sure you got lots of magic potions filled up in your bottles.

I don't really understand the new sports games every year. What changes? NHL 09 was amazing. NHL 10 is introducing board play (Trapping the puck against the boards and actually being able to fight for it, jab at it, kick it to another player.) as well as first-person fighting, and a number of new goalie animations so that glitch shots happen less frequently.

I picked up Arkham Asylum for the PC on friday at Best Buy. They had it out on the shelf regardless of the release date.
Awesome game on the PC, already traded my PS3 copy.
Protip: Guitar Hero 5 fucking sucks. I don't know what asshole thought that making the bass-drum notes the same color as the timing bars in the drum charts was a good idea. I finally got a RB2 drum kit to play with, and even though I can FC 5 or 6 of the songs, I have an extremely hard time telling which notes are the bass drum, and I'm mostly just going off of songs I know IRL.
The Beatles: Rock Band is fucking sick, though.

I just beat Super Mario 64 for the second time, all that fucking work and Princess Peach bakes you a cake. FUCK. Playing Paper Mario right now, I love that game to pieces. My BF wants his hands on my Gamecube so he can play SMSunshine.

Paper Mario is so much fun.
Ima have to use my GC tons more soon because we have to send the Wii in for repairs. Apparently there's some kind of issue with Brawl since it's a dual layered disc and it causes the Wii to freeze. Weird thing is, it did it with Mario Party 8 too. o.O

The only video game I play is Excite Truck. Its probably a really bad game as far as games go, but to me it is awesome. I get to pretend to drive a super cool truck in funny colors. It plays awesome music. You gett points for smashing other trucks. THERE IS A COURSE THAT LOOKS LIKE IT IS MADE OUT OF DIAMONDS AND IT IS PURPLE. Best. Game. Ever.

NHL 10 is fun as hell. Of course, all sports games are simply a rehash of last year, but I like alot of the improvements that have been made.

Yeah, I knew there was going to be no point in getting Madden '10. I have '09, and I'm sure the graphics didn't get a noticable enough upgrade, so no deal. I ain't paying $60 for a roster update.

I've just realised that I may be able to use my wired Xbox controller with the PS2 emulator on my pc. If I can... sweet. Configuring that thing is a pain in the ass, because the instructions I'm using seem to pre-suppose any kind of internal pc/PS2 knowledge.

I love TF2. I really wish I had a good desktop to play it on, my laptop just doesn't cut it after a while =/
I finally did Mile High Club on COD4! Took me so goddamn long.

I think I just used my sword and Dins Fire to beat him. Ocarina of Time remains my favourite game ever. I play it start to finish every few years and the bottom of the well and shadow temple still scares the hell out of me. Also, Sheik/Zelda is my favourite female game character.

I just installed it, had it for ages as part of the Orange Box but never actually played it. Here goes nothing! I think I joined the DF Steam Group too. My s/n is AtrocityExhibit.
Also, there is something so satisfying about being the Batman and smashing peoples faces into tiled walls and watching shit fly everywhere. PhysX is awesome.

Ocarina is such a fun game. I love it so much. I wish I could hook it up with some Wind Waker again, but...no. We have some bad history there.

TF2 is beast. I can't get enough of it right now. Still waiting for Starcraft II and Diablo III. But those won't be out for quite a while.
What do you guys think will be the next update weapons for TF2? (Engineer, Demonman, and Soldier)

Soldier, I think. Dunno why, just got a hunch.
Not gonna lie, I was a bit disappointed with the Sniper update. Who the fuck wants a bow?! I want a semi-auto rifle!
Also can't wait for Meet the Pyro - I reckon he's a she.

Also can't wait for Meet the Pyro - I reckon he's a she. Sorry. I meant what the new weapons were going to be for the updates. And I wonder if they are going to do 1 or all 3 at the same time. The bow is a pretty solid weapon though. Lets you get up close. If you throw Jarate on them and hit them with an arrow, its almost always a one hit kill.

Ocarina of Time is one of my favorite games ever. I was never ever able to beat it without reading a walkthrough, though. And I'm pretty sure the last time I played through I had to mute the TV for the bottom of the well and the Shadow Temple, too.
I tear up every single time I hear the Zelda theme, though. I can't explain it.
Other than that, I think Pokemon is the best thing ever.

It's a side-scroller game, but you spawn items/creatures to advance through the level and collect something. For example, if you need to get some place really high, you can spawn a ladder and climb to it. I haven't played it, but apparently you can spawn practically anything. You just write it on the touch screen and it spawns. Cthulu, beavers, Rick Astley, etc.
