yeah pumped for this, really liked 1. 

It's funny some think Rage is overexposed, while carmack posts "Sometimes I want to put window tint on the artists and designer’s monitors to get them to build brighter levels" on his twitter. 

So who wants to coop with me? :p 

For another 3 hours, then I have marching orders for another hour (dog), then some procrastinating for another hour, but after that im game :D Murderer. 

arkham asylum.

How about this then! Took me a while to get to it, but dammmmn I'm having a blast with it so far!

I didn't even know it was a free roaming game, and was very pleasantly surprised when I finished the intensive treatment "tutorial level" and it threw me onto Arkham Island.

I picked it up on a steam midweek madness sale for �3.75, but its definitely worth the full price entry fee if you missed that sale!

Coming from Darksiders (also excellent!) to this, I guess I have a thing for modern platformers that I never knew about :) Any other games in the vein as these two that I should check out? 

But I picked up GTA4 + the expansions in the sale last week.

Been playing The Lost and Damned stuff. I have to say that so far it is a lot more entertaining than the GTA4 plot. There just seems to be much more racing around shooting stuff, and the characters and plot are a lot darker. And there have been no stupid nonsense missions yet either. Even the first couple of missions have a lot of action in them. 

Daz AA rocks. AC should be plenty amazing - it's supposed to be 5x as big or thereabouts and you start off with the gadgets you got from AA. It's on my radar. 

Looks like it uses the Alice1 engine >:( 

Is murderer your steam account name or something else? 

GLADOS is taunting the player. I just got over excited is all, it wasn't aimed at you. 

 

Have you played Portal 1? I could imagine P2's story and maybe a few of the initial puzzle to be a bit confusing for those who don't know the background. 

And I went to bed this morning at aroun 3 or 4am, and it was the beginning of chapter 8, so no major problems here. I have to say that the game is exqusite. 

I played P1 but I never quite finished it..... I had it on the Orange Box on the 360, and I got so far into it then I got stuck. Then I stopped playing it and never finished it.

Im finding the sequel is more fun due to less confusion and also having a couple of 'freinds' to talk to...... 

Hmmmm...I was expecting more from that to be honest. With the exception of the Doom 3 tentacle guy (lol wut) - id have only really shown combat against piss-weak melee attackers that run suicidally at the player in a straight line, and usually die before getting within 20m of him.

It would be the equivalent of pimping Elder Scrolls V by only releasing videos of the player beating off slightly over-grown rats in sewers, and nothing else. 

Sounds messy. 

 

Sounds like something you'd do in daikatana 

Perfect 10? 

I still haven't finished it yet, classes have ben getting in the way. It's a lot longer than portal, even with just the single player campaign. Cave Johnson is my hero. 

I think so. I also haven't finished it yet tho.....

I'm suprised there's no portal 2 thread yet...
