Red Dead Redemption is so awesome. Probably my GOTY (haven't played Super Mario Galaxy 2 yet though) and the best open world/sandbox game I've ever played.

Have you signed up for Rockstar's Social Club? If you do you get a nifty little 100% checklist along with some new challenges and things.

I'm 51.8% through and I've clocked about 14 hours. I've done 35/57 story missions, but I still have a lot of bountys, strangers, challenges and outfits to complete.

Yeah the Social Club is pretty neat. The 100% checklist is nice. I'm about 27% finished, as I was on vacation all last week.

Just beat Red Dead Redemption. Incredible game.

I finished Super Mario Galaxy 2 last night. It's probably just me being immature, but I laughed so hard at the ending. Except for that oddly funny bit, the ending was fairly pradictable, even for a Mario game.

anybody ever play shadowrun for snes or sega genesis? i loved those games!

I really want red dead redemption.

[dusktodawn]

I just got Red Dead Redemption today! I'm maybe two missions into the game, but so far I think it's really good!

Started WET today and finished WET today. Didn't think it'd be THAT short. I loved the character of Rubi and the whole Grindhouse presentation, but the gameplay wasn't that great. It was fun though, and I'd label at as a guilty pleasure. Worth the $15 I paid.

Wet 2 would be cool just to see where else they could go with it. There's a lot of potential. Plus, cliffhangers are annoying.

I'm glad you liked it. I'd also label it as one of my guilty pleasure games.

I've been replaying Metroid Prime 3: Corruption over the last few days. I'd been itching to play one of the Prime games for a while, but I'm not sure why I choose Corruption. It's easily the weakest of the trilogy.

don't worry, you just bought a great game instead of another great game but man Red Dead Redemption has some really funny moments in it like the Norman Bates type moment.

[Tea - Total]

^^ Thanks *KARMA*. You just made me happy.

I'm playing Metroid II at the moment. I have seven metroids left and I just got the screw attack.




This pleases me.

Oh, I love that game! That's one of the very few I've ever played.

But I think my favorite game (besides anything Lara Croft and Lara Croft-esque) would be Primal. If you all haven't played it you should check it out: mega-awesome!

A few days ago. I could say Metroid II was one of the few games in the franchise I haven't finished. Can I say that now? Nope. I finished it earlier today. My time was pitiful, but the ending was cuuuute.

Also, am I the only one who is just realizing how close we are to E3? It really snuck up on me, I guess.

[dusktodawn]

I finished Red Dead Redemption the other day!

Definitely a really good game, but I wish there were more missions then there were - and that Bonnie didn't give out boring ones.

Alan wake review.
Graphics's. Really amazing graphics especially the environments and the distant lands. The light in the game has the best lighten in any game.The graphic suit the atmosphere feeling and the realistic term. 9.8/10 The syncing voice is a abit silly and the animation is OK. But the environment is superb, best looking game in ages.
sound. Great realistic current sounds, the voice acting is brilliant especially wakes,dark and malicious.10/10
Game-play, i thought i would get really bored, but i surprise my self. You get arrange of weapon to fight the darkness and its very appealing and very satisfied, also the big bad in this game are hard and bloody scary and their are thousands of them.Very realistic survival horror game.
9/10

9.5/10

Finished Red Dead Redemption last night (Got 100% in the single player, all of the single player trophies). Easily one of the best games I've played, and DEFINITELY the new king in open world games (at least until GTA V arrives).

Games of 2010: Reviews
1. Red Dead Redemption - 10/10
2. God of War III - 9.5/10
3. Final Fantasy XIII - 8.5/10
4. BioShock 2 - 8.5/10

In lieu of the recent movie buzz, a trailer for the upcoming Mortal Kombat 9 has been released!

click here

Mortal Kombat is really the only fighting series I've gotten into. I played the first two all the time on the SNES back when I was a kid, and then I played Deception quite a bit in the last generation. I haven't played Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe though, but may check it out if it is cheap.

I'm excited about this. If it has a fun story like the past games, great fighting mechanics, etc., I'll definitely check it out. From the video it seems to be drawing a lot from MKI, MKII and MK3 in terms of stages and characters, which is grrrrrrrreat.
