What are you playing at the moment? - Page 49

After reading your posts about this, the achievement whore in me is telling me to steer well clear of this. Looks like far too much work for the points. How have you enjoyed it generally though?

That sounds long winded!
I'm selling my copy, just not got the time or inclination for it.

I completed Dead Space last night. Very good game, however once you get a few weapons it becomes a cake walk. Good story and has some excellent monster placement (ie not immediately obvious). It is setup so that you can't get everything on the first play through. While its good, I don't think I will play through it all again.

Currently I'm blasting through Painkiller and loving every moment of it. Currently on a mission where you are fighting undead zombies and can only use the stake gun. Oh the hardship

Especially when you pin a couple of them to the wall, never gets old.

Just started PoP, enjoying it so far. I think this is going to be the last game I play buy in a long time. Just lately I've found when I buy a game I haven't really got the desire to pop the seal.

I think I've got bored of it all a bit, even when I'm starting a game I'm thinking I'm wasting rockband time

It happens to us all Danny. Some days I sit there and just can't be bothered and that's usually the case when I get more games at the same time, I end up not playing any.

Abooie, that sounds a little nasty to be honest. Are you able to unlock that mission though, and do you need to unlock that one mission to get 100% game completion?

Painkiller is one game I wanted to play at launch but never did.

I've redone both the missions I needed so I'm back to where I was anyway.

If you complete every side quest you get a final mission worth 200 points and then access to a final final boss worth another 200. If you don't you haven't access to them. As I've already sunk 80 odd hours into it and have completed every side quest up to the points I'm at I decided not to take the risk, so I redid them. The problem is I won't know if I've unlocked this mission until after all the bases, then the base strong hold then after another area. So fngers crossed. If I don't get it though I'm not going to lose any sleep I'll settle for 600/1000

Davey: For the most part I've really enjoyed the game. I like the turn based tactical combat and for the most part boss fights can be saved at just before so it's not a pain to re do them. It's certainly not one for points whoring though.

On another note my mate was back so we did some more Gears of War 2 and we're now up to Act 5 Ch. 3, Great stuff

Huddy, its stood the test of time well. Even now if you crank the settings up it doesn't look that bad. Its something like Quake (original) meets Serious Sam.

Yep that's a laugh. Now on Chapter 4, had serious trouble just killing them all in Chapter 3..... fire rate wasn't high enough

Flibster · 07-01-2009, 01:06

Currently playing...

Nothing.

Have absolutely no games installed and the Wii is away for repair - I dropped it from about 4ft and the drive no longer accepts disks. Arse.
