Gamers unite -HQ

Probably won't get it based on the feedback. Any other year I would have but got a lot of games to purchase this year with a rather dire financial situation.

 

[Lee]

I've got writers block.

Any 'cracked style articles' you'd like to see on nintendolee.com?

 

[Muffin Top Merkley]

Have you done "The Future of Gaming" yet?

that thread started as a remember Tony Hawk Pro Skater thread, and now it's a Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD (which comes out next month) thread. Bask in the Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD awesomeness there (and here).

Pro Skater HD, Bioshock Infinite & Assassin's Creed 3

PUMPED for these three.

 

[Lee]

I decided to review (in the style of the great Doug Funnie is Crazy) The Adventure of Super Mario Bros 3 episode 1. I'm pretty proud of this one:

I too am pumped for Assassin's Creed 3.

What games will you all be purchasing this year?

 

[Lee]

AC3, WiiU, Mario Power Tennis, Luigi's Mansion 2

AC3, WiiU, Mario Power Tennis, Luigi's Mansion 2

There's going to be a Luigi's Mansion 2?

The first one and Mario Kart are the only Mario/Luigi games I've ever played.

 

[Lee]

Yes it was announced last year at E3.

What games will you all be purchasing this year?

Off the top of my head: Pro-Skater HD and Bioshock Infinite are locks. There is other stuff that I hope to get to, but I'm not sure if its a full purchase on day one. I've very behind on my gaming.

Am I right in saying that Bioshock Infinite is Bioshock 3?

I plan on playing the first two soon.

It's the third Bioshock game but it takes place before the first Bioshock and with a different setting from the first two games. The biggest thing that plagued Bioshock 2 is that it feels exactly like the first game. There was no sense of mystery and the eerie feeling you get walking through Rapture in the first game is replaced with a "been here, done that" mentality.

Would you say that Bioshock 2 is worth playing after the first one?

 

[Muffin Top Merkley]

If you find it cheap & can put in the time. It's a fairly short game, but Bioshock 1 is the one you need to play.

 

[Stormtrooper]

or you could play no Bioshock game, that works too.

I could not get into the first game at all. Granted the genre of the game does not appeal to me, but still I couldn't get into it. Never played the second. Won't be playing the third.

 

[Stormtrooper]

bump.

I just got 3D Dot Game Heroes based on your liking of the game, Lee. It better be worth the $10 dollars I spent for it.

 

[Lee]

It flipping better be.

 

[Stormtrooper]

It flipping better be.

From what I have seen (just the intro video, as I just finished downloading the update), it's awesome. And for $10 bucks, it would be hard to suck, especially since it is retro awesomeness.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Pretty as shit.

Oh right - videogames! I should probably start playing those again. I think I might finally complete BULLETSTORM. Yeah. BULLETSTORM.

 

[Captain Morgan Freeman]

I fucking hated bulletstorm.

On my list of games to get through

Spoiler

Shadows of the damned
Bayonetta

[Muffin Top Merkley]

Portal 2
Bayonetta

What system do you play?

 

[Captain Morgan Freeman]

I have vanquish played it back in February and really liked it, Burns character is unintentionally hilarious. Ive got an Xbox 360 and my brothers got a ps3 so we usually swap consoles every few weeks.
