Still Can't Decide... A Brief Post

I still can't decide what new game I want, or even if I want a game. I think the last set of Gurren Lagann came out, and I might buy that instead. Also, I think I should spend some more time with games that I already own... I'm still no where near close to beating Tales of Vesperia after giving it 20 hours. Also deserving of more time are BioShock and Battlefield: Bad Company. I'm a bit frustrated with both The Orange Box and Devil May Cry 4 right now, and I will never play Sega Superstars Tennis again. What a turd that game is...

I won't even get into my list of retro, Wii, and DS titles. That would be ridiculous.

A new dilemma

I have a new problem that needs solving. I want a new game, but there are too many good ones right now, and I can't afford them all. I guess that is a good kind of problem to have. Anyway, I'll make a list of games I want for each platform I own and hope for some advice. I doubt I'll get any advice here on blogger, but since this will auto upload to facebook I should get something. Anyway, here is each system and the games I want for it.

Wow

It has been over a month since I posted last... That is quite a while, and I have quite a bit to say, though I doubt anyone actually reads this. Well, I have some things to say, and that's all that matters to me.

I have a bunch of XBox 360 games now, and I have actually played all of them. Here are my impressions about all my games except Tales of Vesperia, since I already did that one.

The Orange Box: I like this disc. It has a lot to offer, but I probably would have been willing to pay $20 just for Half Life 2. The rest of the games are just gravy. Portal is very interesting but I find myself frustrated more than amused by it. I haven't tried Team Fortress 2 yet. I wish I knew some other people who had it.

Devil May Cry 4: This is good, though not as good as the original. I feel like it is a bit too difficult. I am stuck at the ice toad thing. Even my buddy can't beat it, and he has beaten all 3 other games on pretty much every mode. I don't know why this one seems so hard.

Battlefield Bad Company: A very entertaining FPS, but it feels a little basic. Don't get me wrong, it's very well done, but the only thing super special about it is the humor. Great for $20.

Bioshock: This is like the 360's Metroid Prime, but with a much darker story and scary little girls. It's incredibly well done. I don't know what else to say, it's definitely something special.


Let's see, what else is going on...

I got Onslaught for WiiWare. It's an OK game. The real attraction for me is the fact that I can finally play another FPS with my brother, who only owns a Wii and a DS. We have only had Metroid Prime Hunters until now.

There are too many games that I want... I won't list them all because there are too many. I am having trouble justifying $60 for the new Star Ocean. The same goes for MadWorld and Deadly Creatures on the Wii. And while I want House of the Dead: Overkill, I refuse to pay $50 for a rail shooter.

That's all for now.
