The Video Games Thread II - The Resurrection

[Stan Hullis]

Definitely difficult to pick up on everything! Definitely difficult but enjoying what I'm seeing so far

New Black Ops map pack comes out on May 3rd.

Toon - will you be indulging?

In other gaming news - I shall be gaining my latest 1000G score later tonight. Lego Harry Potter is almost complete. Exciting times.

Probably, though I have gone off the game somewhat. Also LA Noire is out around then so that will doubtless take over my life...

 

[Langers]

I am not on as often as I was. Other games are starting to take over!

Got this for my PSP a couple of weeks ago, not tried it yet. Any good?

It's a Lego game. And it's Harry Potter. In Lego. It's ace.

I've been having a fucking brutal time at work of late - getting home and enjoying a fun button-basher has helped my sanity.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Nice. I've got Lego Star Wars which is all kinds of awesome. There's only that, Football Manager and Everybody's Golf at the moment that have me on the 'just another ten minutes' threshold.

It was Cube Logic on Facebook for a bit, but now I've beaten my mate's score and I'm top of the leaderboard amongst people I know, it's lost its appeal.

 

[Langers]

Got my 1000! And here's a funny achievement picture to celebrate:

 

[Stan Hullis]

Thought I would give ME2 a go for an hour.

3 and a half hours later I force myself to turn it off. Addictive game!

Come on confess, we've all been there, you kept playing because you liked looking at Miranda's ass...

Damn...You got me!

Especially if you're a female Sheppard....

Oops...pass the Kleenex.

For me, this will be the highlight of the year. (Note to self...must finish RDR, Fallout NV, Divinity II, GTA IV and The Saboteur before November - do not buy LA Noir unless you are off work ill for 3 weeks....)

Last night I had 'one of those days' on the xbox.

Went on Black Ops - was put on the same team as utter fucktards, and played some nerds who clearly have skin the colour of Tipp-ex having never seen daylight. My reactions were Scott Carson-esque.

Then went on FIFA, and tried and tried to find a game that WASN'T against Madrid/Barca/Chelsea/Man Utd etc. Impossible. Played 2 lost 2 goals for 0 goals against 4. Boring.

So thought I'd finish on Lego Indiana Jones 2. Got to the end of a level and the bloody console froze.

So I went to bed annoyed.

I'd just like to say I'm also a Lego fan. I've got 1000G on Harry Potter and Batman. I haven't bought the new Star Wars as I'm a bit Lego'd out, but will definitely be getting Pirates Of The Carribean in a couple of weeks.

Good man. I have 1000'd Potter, Batman, Indiana Jones and came close to getting the 1000 on Lego Star Wars 2. Pirates of the Caribbean will have to be bought at some point. Apparently, they're working on Lego Lord of the Rings. Cannot WAIT for that.

I saw you come on last night and would have invited you to chat, but I was just giving up and going to bed, tired and grumpy! I think given what occurred I'm glad I went to bed, otherwise my grumpiness would have been compounded! I hadn't seen you on Xbox Live for ages either. If you're on later I'll have a chat...

Lego Harry Potter is excellent. Mrs DW took the computer to work last Friday so I spent all day playing it. It's not made for kids! Some of it is really challenging.

I'm on now mate - just let me know if you fancy some Yank slaying or something.

It's great - incidentally, I have the iPhone version which is absolutely brilliant - different to the console versions too. You cast spells by moving your finger over the screen in patterns. A really good adaptation.
