So far I've gotten Borderlands GOTY and Monkey Island 1 and 2.

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

I tried to play Borderlands once, but I tried to kill a level 14 enemy when I was level 10 and by the time it got down to half health I was completely out of ammo and it started regenerating health, so I stopped playing it because of that (even though I went out of my way to try and kill it). I don't think I should be able to just kill every enemy from the start, but come on, an enemy shouldn't be that invincible. Other that that, it was kind of just meh to me.

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

It's like L4Dead, it's a co-op game really.

Playing it solo is easily possible, but your missing much of the fun.

EDIT: Borderlands is also a RPG first and a FPS second, meaning attacking people with significantly higher levels than you will no go well. It doesn't make enemies level with you like Bioware or Bethesda games do.

This is actually a good thing since there is no fast travel, going through low level areas to get where you are going is very painless.

There's a fast travel system starting in the 2nd major area.

Did they patch it in? Because I know there wasn't one originally inside each area.

I played on PS3, but there was a fast travel system at the new you stations once you got to the 2nd map area.

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

I bought Sins of a Solar Empire: Trinity on Steam last night. It's an extremely fun game (though I completely suck at it). I've played it for about an hour and 45 minutes, and in that time managed to capture just one planet. Yeah, it's a really slow-paced game. It helped once I turned off the Pirate setting, as they kept destroying all of my structures once I built them up. Anyway, I recommend it.

My tourney record: 14-32 or 30.43% wins

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

Persona 4...funniest game I have ever player, the combat is a step down from Persona 3, but it is quicker. Can't wait for P4 Arena.

I love birdies and butterflies and rainbows and unicorns and glitter.

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

Just got Costume Quest on Steam, though I recommend the entire bundle if you Tim Schaefer games.

Binary Domain - $10
Sniper Elite V2 - $15
Portal 2 - $5
Worms: Reloaded - $5
Team Fortress 2 mouse pad - ~$11 (including shipping)

$51 so far, with Mirror's Edge and the ARMA 2 bundle to go. *cringe*
Picked up Mirror's Edge for $5, and the first 2 FEAR games for ~$6 total.

This is now $62, still waiting for the ARMA 2: Combined Operations bundle to get a lower discount than 20%. If it doesn't by the end of the sale, I'll pick it up for 20% off.

Somehow I got a tax return check from the government for $41 a few days ago that I was supposed to get in 2010, but they resent me it. I got my first job in 2011 and started paying taxes then so I don't know why I would be getting one in/from 2010. But whatever, lessens the wallet killing.

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD jut came out on the Xbox Live Marketplace yesterday. I'm definitely picking it up for the $15, but I decided to grab the demo first just in case (it's downloading now).

Basically if you've ever played a skateboarding game, Tony Hawk's 4 Pfo Skater games were the best out there. After Pro Skater 4 they started doing other skating games under Tony's name like Project 8, which is still great, but just not as high quality as the Pro Skater series. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD is a downloadable release that is basically a revamp of the original game. I cannot wait to play it since I have owned Pro Skater 4 for so many years.

Like Superheroes and Comics?

Re: What Video Game are you Currently Playing?

Sins of a Solar Empire: Trinity is a tough game. After a few days of playing it, and restarting my game a few times (all on Very Easy), I was finally able to successfully defend one of my planets against a siege today! And I managed to win an uncontrolled planet in a smaller battle, although I wouldn't have won if it weren't for my many reinforcements.

Even though I'm having a hard time with the game, I really love it! Personally, I think it's one of the best RTS games out there.
