Right now, I'm playing Blitz The League 2. It's awesome. Graphics aren't good, and the whole thing is as fake and unrealistic as Jordan's titties but it's just such good fun you can kinda over look it. And rupturing someones ballsack is creepily entertaining.

The two Blitz the League games are the only football games I like. The rest are boring, and the controls are screwy.

Yeah, probably is if your into American football like you are, but for me I like it cos of the British misconception it's about causing pain. It's probably a lot more technical, but in a video game if I can throw the ball to a wide receiver and hit someone over the head with their own helmet, I'm happy to keep that as my only intake of American football.

I finally got around to playing Braid and I was impressed. I don't know if it is as fantastic as it was labeled by professional gaming critics but it is a great game. There is something so simple and yet complex about it. The story is full of hidden meanings and had one of my favorite twist endings I have seen in a game (watch the final level backwards to see what I mean). It was a little short for a $15 game, but still worth every penny (or MS point in my case).

When I actually watched the level in reverse it was one of the best moments I have had in a game.

That was the way both Mass Effect games were for me. I got more and more into them as they went on. It isn't that they started too slow or it was boring. I just needed to have some time to really let the world sink in and get to the point where I felt invested in it. Then I was playing in all of my free time until I finished.

I really didn't like the storylines to those games. I felt like they were jumbled around and too hard to follow. I get it that part of the game is the idea that the story shouldn't be completely linear and comprehensible at first but that was at ridiculous levels. I found the gameplay to be fun, although a bit repetitive if I played for more than an hour at a time.

That game was indeed awesome! I loved it from beginning to end. Same with the first and I can't wait for the third one either.

Makes perfect sense to me. Should help cut down on pre-owned games, or at least make them slightly cheaper. Sorry but if the price difference between a new and a 2nd hand game is £5 I'll probably get the new one. At least that way a bit of your money is going to the people who made the damn thing.

People have this thing about needing to own every last piece of content, hence people buying multiple copies of games to get all the preorder stuff, then complaining because they can't take helmets off armour and stuff (ME2 - fair complaint really), and because they "had" to buy all these multiple versions. I got the Digital Deluxe of ME2, I was happy with my bonuses, I wore the Collector armour throughout the first playthrough, but am I pissed I missed out on some other set of armour, some other pre-order weapon? No, not at all.

I guess this whole DLC thing still hasn't matured so people don't have that mindset that it's additional content on top of, and not vital to, their enjoyment of the game. I still remember Oblivion's horse armour DLC which was some ridiculous price for something entirely superfluous. So we've gotten past that part at least.
