I guess I overlooked that as a real release date, haha.
Even though I didn't play the first one, Mercenaries 2 might be worth checking out.

So..... I finally got around to playing Portal. It blew my mind away.

And Lt. Brookman, how in the Hell did you manage to beat the level with in Pripyat on Hardened, much less Veteran? I simply couldn't do it back when I first played through the game.

Xenos, by being a clever cunty coward. I dumped MacMillan at the cars, planted my claymores, dumped MacMillan at his hillock, planted his claymores, dispersed all my C4 and after moar than thirty tries, got through it. Just need to use MacMillan and the tree as cover, when the choppers come in I decided to hoof it and hide behind the bumper car attraction until the evac chopper came. Then I slithered over to MacMillan, ran like ******** and sighed a big sigh of relief. Oh and getting an MP5 did miracles for me besides the Dragunov.

Right now I'm down to "Shock and Awe", "One Shot, One Kill" "No Fighting in the War Room" and "Mile High Club", with those gone I'll have played and finished the entire game on veteran on a console.

Just try to finish the "Mile High Club" level on hardened or veteran though, you get one minute to romp it through to the hostage! gonk

In other news, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is okay. Moar of the same, but at least you can create and customize your own character to quite some extent. Boony hat toting flat chested gun chick FTW!

VIKING!

ok been playing it all week. The only thing which saddens me is the length. Im at teh last section now then I jump over to hard. The games acheivement are terribly easy to come by as well. Though some do require a bit of skill.

I... CRAVES... WARHAMMER ONLINE SPECIAL EDITION! D8 <3
-wants both the game and the model-

We has Warhammer On-line thread here, merely preventing parallel threads with the same subject ninja

Finished up on R6V2 and almost done on Realistic, it is pretty fun though, especially now that the squad AI has been improved allowing you to send them up ahead and do the dirty work for you.

@Brookman- Interesting... I've beaten them all on Hardened barring that one, and some of them on Veteran. However, I only played it through the first time, and when I tried playing through on Veteran, I got stuck on the level in the TV station as the Marines. Any tips to get through that one?


And in semi-unrelated news, anyone wanna see pictures and videos of my shootin' trip today? =D  

[Hoxtalicious]

Ah, you mean the main office section with the balconies overhead, ait? Use your cover, toss frags and flashbangs whenever you really need to and don't forget to pump rounds through the walls they are hiding behind.

So my friend bought me Squad Command yesterday. First thing we did was try the Download Play. 8 on 8 Chaos marines. Holy s**t why bother even shooting when you can just hide behind cover and then just jump out and chainsword them for instant death.

Unfortunately for my buddy, he's not as attentive, so he missed the whole "switch weapons" thing.

Also Chainswords are broken as hell, because if there are as many as 4 enemy units close to each other, you can send in one guy with a chainsword and just destroy them all.

I just bought CoD4 yesterday, and I'm done with a few missions. I plan on 100%-ing this game too. Oh, and I get the new maps for free because I somehow ended up with the Game of the Year edition.  

[Hoxtalicious]

Played R6V2 with fellow guild member Sgt. O'Brien yesterday, great fun. Coop is really the way to go with this game, nothing like romping through several acts while discussing the finer art of immigration while chasing and killing an illegal Mexican on the run with a shotgun plus various guild and hobby related items.

Fallout 3 has gone up to 500 endings and a major character is making its return: Dogmeat will be in the game!

I wonder when we'll hear about Mass Effect 2...

I bet that'll give you some wet dreams wink

Wow, impatient? It's been out for less than three months now and still busy being ported to the pc and already you're wondering about a possible sequel in the trilogy?

I'm just wondering. And I think December, January, February, March, and half of April doesn't fit "under three months". Besides, it's been known to happen, because DoW: Soulstorm was released a little over a month ago, and they've already announced DoW II for early next year.
