I got a NES, a SNES and a 360 but growing up as a PC gamer my favourite game of all time is still Monkey Island 2. Yeah.

Speaking of PC games, anyone here a Quake fan (and I mean the original, not the gradually worse sequels) I so want to write and direct a Quake movie adaptation, would be epic.

I'm still not a part of the 7th generation of gaming. Which is bad, cause we're edging on next gen, here soon.
Retro gamer, both NES and PC, I own some stuff for the PS2. Favorite games include Mega Man 2, God Hand, MGS3, and others. It's odd, I consider myself a gamer, but I barely play anymore.

I thought Oblivion was alright aside from the level up system and the enemies leveling up along with you. Those two things took me right out of the game (more so with the stupid leveling system than the enemies).

I have 360, PS3, Wii, and most predecessors. My favorite games include Quest for Glory, Legends of Kyrandia, Wet, Jet Set Radio Future, Pokemon, and any Zelda. I like everything from old school to new, and I'll try any game once. I can usually find something good to say about any game. So far, the only game I've hated wholy is Siren for the PS2.
Right now, I've been bouncing around between Demon's Souls, Borderlands, Fallout Vegas, Katamari Forever, Little Big Planet, and Soul Silver.

I'm getting Mass Effect 2 for the PS3 tomorrow finally. I fell like I'm the last person to play it since I don't have a 360 and my PC is crap. I did buy Soul Reaver off PSN today and it's fun.

Anyone play through Deadly Premonition? If ever a game deserved a Snob review, this is the one.

Wow, weird, I was about to mention I have just completed this game, 3 times, done everything you possibly can, its a great game, if you can get past all the crap controls and so on.
Also, didn't Spoony start a review and just never complete it?

Indeed he did. Spoony stopped because another reviewer at the time just finished his lets play of it, and Spoony didn't want to steal the thunder. In the Magfest Q&A Spoony's fans have expressed a lot of interest in him restarting it. So at this point it is sitting around in limbo if he will finish it or not.

The other reviewer wouldn't happen to be 'Giant Bomb' at all?

Could be worse. You could be like me, who hasn't even played the first Mass Effect yet. And I do have a 360.

Highly recommend watching Giant Bomb's let's play of the game, as well as their let's play of Persona 4. Well, actually I'd just recommend Giant Bomb.

I'm thinking we could make a list of games that kind of work as exploitation. Duke Nukem could be one, Manhunt definitely, I'm sure we could find a fair amount.

I've been a Fallout kid lately. Just demolished Fallout 3 yesterday with a perfect character and started New Vegas today. Also playing Fallout 1 on the side.
