Mosdt of the games I bought were the $5 specials..... just the Squire Enix package nailed me.
But I'm done now hey. Unless there's truly something astounding I won't be buying anything else.....

/holds fingers that there won't be anything truly astounding :rolleyes:

The whole trick to Demons souls is timing, if your timing is off, you dead, you start from the start. The enemies are brutal, 2 shots and you are dead, and sometimes what seems to be an easy kill turns out to be deadly. You have to plan your attacks. I started with a Temple knight, found his attack to slow, on Moody's recommendation I am now using a Royalty, a caster. Still tough.

I got Batman on Xbox, have it on PC as well but never got round to playing it, selling that now.

So does RDR getting boring after while? I think there was a lot of hype over this game but that died it seems.

I still need to finish Darksiders, its dragging out a little.

Also got myself Little Big Planet GOTY, awesome game :D

Yep all about timing.

RDR is a wonderful sandbox game, i just got pissed of with the missions. Got boring, go there, kill that, bring back this. Im more of a "There is your sandbox go do what ever the fuck you want in it." but giving me a sandbox with hardly any long term appeal toys just got old. Same a GTA IV, although i still have GTA IV. RDR just rubbed me up the wrong way from day 1.

Yep, had the same problem with Infamous, although i did like the twist at the end. GTA IV was the last sandbox i played and enjoyed, i passed up a few other titles coz i know i get bored of the box. With RDR i got caught up in the hype. There are people who will love it but id rather play something with a better structure, Halo, GOW, Gears, Witcher and so on. WOW is the only game that really succeeds as a Sandbox, simply coz its packed with so many awesome toys to keep you occupied for 2 or even 3 different play through.

Sandbox games in general are not my favorite. I get bored to quickly. Busy downloading The Witcher, keen to give it a go.

I finally got my 100% completion achievement for RDR last week. The game gave me 42 hours of gameplay, but I'm wondering whether I want to go for the last couple of of achievements (7).

It's a curse but there's something about achievements that just makes me want to finish them. :)

But finishing the single player missions itself is just one part of getting the 100% completion achievement. Took me another 15 hours AFTER finishing the single player missions just to get it. But it was fun. Having to kill a bear with only your knife for a hunting challenge makes things interesting. :D
