I'd like to let Ziggy know of a certain game which is titled Omikron: The Nomad Soul. That is all.

I've got it on the Dreamcast.
It's a rather PKDesque in places, there are some early versions of a few tunes Ziggy will recognise.

just beat AC2 on PS3 with 98% completion. I got tired of looking for all those damn feathers and missed just a few monetary treasures. The game rocked!! Is AC brotherhood worth buying? Im not interested in the multiplayer stuff. Is the single player campaign fun and have a good continuing story about Ezio?
Hell yes it is worth buying, it is a BLAST to, but you better get it soon and beat it, AC: Revelations is coming and it is bringing closure to the Altair and Ezio stories.
Absolutlely! It's maybe not quite as good (maybe "groundbreaking" is a better word) as 2, but it's right up there. And I actually found it to be the best story of the 3, so far.
When it first came out, it sounded like it was an MP game... then it sounded like an MP game with a little SP game- allow me to tell you that it is a full featured SP game. ~40 hours, maybe a few +/- to AC2.
I can't recommend it highly enough. Especially if you're all over AC2.
(Though I can't decide if a one should jump directly into ACB after finishing AC2... or a one should take a little break so that the comparisons aren't so direct and that the AC fatigue isn't already higher than it should be.)
IT'S MY TRILOGY, AND I WANT IT NOW!

I'd take a break. I got overloaded rather quickly going straight from 2 to B.

Ziggy is aware of it.
Ziggy needs to buy a Dreamcast.

There was also a Windohs version.

Would be good if he got both the Dreamcast and Windows versions.
Bought BioShock 2 for PC the other day from Best Buy for $5.38. Unfortunately unlike the previous game it doesn't support XBOX 360 for PC controllers so I made an XPadder profile for it. BioShock Infinite looks quite enthralling and the 15 minute demo video of it is remarkably outstanding.
Because of this I have re-installed both System Shock 1 & 2. 2 has texture and mesh packs around but for 1, best to use DOSBox.

The latest version of SS1 Portable has some nice features. It is essentially it's own DOSBox kind of thing.
I created what I thought was a killer XPadder profile for SS1... but the "mouse spring" feature wasn't working correctly at that resolution... and I had this odd problem where I was using one of the triggers as a "function key/set changer" to modify the behaviour of some of the other buttons- and sometimes it would get stuck "on" (set 2) and pulling the trigger switched it back to "off" (set 1) instead of the versa.
I do recall hearing that BS2 was kind of a frustrating PC experience. Hope you still enjoy it.

Loving Dead Island right now. Lots of problems, but I am modding them out one at a time. Just increased the field of view which makes driving the vehicles much less annoying.
I heard the PC and PS3 versions are horrible and buggy as hell, but so far I've clocked quite a few hours into the Xbox version and really have very few complaints. After the unplayable buggy experience of Fallout: New Vegas, I really can't find much to complain about with Dead Island. Co-op is fantastic. Being at a different level than the friends you're co-oping with gets annoying, but that seems to be a standard ailment with co-op RPGs.

There’s no split-screen mode.
WHAT????
No, there's no split-screen mode. Online only.
What is with all the hate this game has been getting? The last games I bought on release were Halo: Reach, Fallout: New Vegas, Portal 2, and now Dead Island.
Out of all of those, Dead Island is the only one I feel was good value for the money I spent. I really did enjoy Portal 2, but is was a bit short for a full priced game, and as someone who bought it on day one, the temporary twenty dollar price drop in the second week of its release felt like a big fat middle finger obnoxiously waving itself in my face. :-(
So far my experience of Dead Island (which has been a couple of hours solo and several hours co-op) has been an extremely fun one. After several hours of playing, my game has frozen solid on me twice, in comparison to FO:NV which would freeze about once every hour, this really isn't that big of a deal to me. The only other glitches I have found are an occasional vanishing zombie, weird and annoying, but not anything close to a game breaker.
The game feels a lot like Borderlands with depth, Fallout 3 with co-op, and Left 4 Dead with freedom. A very pleasant mix, and one of the best and most enjoyable games I have played in a long time. I really like having run-ins with the occasional human enemy as well. To me that adds a whole lot to the game.
That sounds awesome. I'm not sure I'll get it, but it seems like a rental, definitely.CP3S said:

Well, I think I know what game you'll be encouraging me to spend my 20 hour credit on next summer will be!

The rocket boots are at once the best and worst additions to a Crackdown game I can imagine.
Pros:
Duh- they're rocket boots.
Cons:
They break certain aspects of the game.
No longer do you need to anticipate each new level-up of your agility skill so that you can go back to earlier parts of the game and go places you couldn't before... you just sort of rocket up there.
You don't have to be that careful as you climb or walk on high ledges- if you fall you can just rocket back up.
Driving at even 100 miles an hour doesn't really compare to having rocklets on your feet... so I hardly ever find myself driving- one of the greatest pleasures of Crackdown 1.
Until you level up your character- the rocket boots take up your grenade/utility slot. So no grenades. I mean, you can choose grenades... but how then would you use your rocket boots??!?
Combined with the wingsuit, it really is a very satisfying way to get around. Actually you have to throw the helicopter in there too. Compared to the first game- where verticality was an element, but you were always pulled back down to the ground-it's really great to be able to take to the skies in so many ways...
But I wish I hadn't had the boots since the beginning. They're part of a DLC pack I bought before I played the game (when it was on sale). I could just choose not to use them... shyeah riight.

Darn. Apparently gamefly had Castlevania LoS for $13 last night and I missed it.

I just want to say everybody here sucks for not liking and playing the games I like and play and leaving nobody for me to talk to about them.
That is all.
P.S. The next game I will be purchasing is Rage. In the interest of not sucking, buy it.

Can I buy it in 2 years? Will I not suck then?

That works. But you'll suck for the next two years until you get it.

Your recommendation of Shadow Of The Colossus and Ico were big hits and Chateau Bingowings.

I'd tell you it is almost a year old, and such a bomb it has bin easy to find on clearance racks for $15 or less for quite a while now.

You can't say "that is all" and then "P.S." without sounding like a big sucky suck who sucks and probably will have wiener kids one day.

My joke was aimed at my normal split-screening companions and recent multiplayer games that have been coming out. So you don't suck Bingo.
Glad it was a successful recommendation. I am actually really excited about the HD version of Shadow of the Colossus and Ico coming later this year to the PS3. Be fun to play them again in HD and without wires. Also, I haven't read details on it, but I assume the version of Ico they use will be the European version. The North American version, sadly, was rushed and missed some features that were not ready at the time it was published, but made it into the European release.
