    Guitar Hero III

    Slash owned me for a few tries. Finally beat him, currently on The Metal (expert). Decided to call it quits then, only to have a friend want to play co-op with me. Sure enough, I beat The Metal on Expert during co-op. Watch me not be able to beat it solo.:mad:

    Team Fortress 2 / Portal

    I've played some full 24-player games and there was no lag whatsoever. I think the highest ping of all the players was like 80ish or something. On a side note, I need to stop buying games for a long time. Still have two PS2 RPGs to beat (Persona3/WildArms5), Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Orange...

    Guitar Hero III

    The new wireless Les Paul is made of sex. One of the advantages of being a GameStop employee is bringing home games that have been streetdated a few days early. I "borrowed" it from work on Wednesday after my shift, then I went and bought a 360 when I brought it back yesterday. <.<

    HL2 the orange box

    The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. ... I've sunk about five hours into TF2, and I'm loving every minute of it. I've got a decent PC, and I'm guessing I run at about 35-40fps (anybody know how to turn framerate counter on without...

    Wild ARMs 5

    It's just not Wild ARMs without an animated intro. It's as much a staple to the series as Chocobos are to Final Fantasy. I've logged about two hours so far, haven't played it yet today seeing how I just got home from work. I'm enjoying it so far. The Wild West theme is back once again, and...

    Blue Dragon

    It's Ian Gillan of Deep Purple fame who sings that obnoxious boss theme. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Dragon#Designers It's getting some very mixed reviews. Game Informer gave it a 9 I think, but GameSpot and Gametrailers.com gave it lower ratings. I wasn't too impressed with the demo...

    Wild ARMs 5

    Picked it up today. So far my MAJOR annoyance is that there was no animated intro like the last four (five if you include AC:F) had. Also, the music doesn't sound like Naruke's style. I know she only did some work on WA4, but for this one it sounds like she had no part in it.

    Persona 3

    You're a little behind me. I think I'm on July 2nd right now. I just got Justice to lvl6, and Magician to lvl6 (I think). I saw Mitsuru in the hallway in front of the library, and when I spoke to her I saw the option to walk home with her. I got shot down and I laughed. As far as the...

    Wild ARMs 5

    I really liked AC:F. They changed enough to make it feel like a different game. I just didn't like how they changed Belzek's name to Berserk. I finished it a long time ago, and I've been going around questing and killing the hidden bosses in an attempt to finally take on Ragu O Ragula. I...

    Persona 3

    Since I didn't see this thread before... My major goal is capping the Justice Arcana. I just have a thing for a girl in glasses, aka Chihiro. That S.Link is lvl6 right now. Some of the stories that occur in the social links are pretty damn funny. Magician (Kenji) is quite amusing. I think...

    Wild ARMs 5

    Big fan of the series, hence my toon's name. Too bad WA2 was garbage. Almost done with WA3 (Nightmare Castle I think?), but getting distracted by work, and now Persona has drawn me away from finishing it. I haven't read much into WA5, and that's fine. I like surprises. All I did know is...

    How old is your PS2?

    I had a second-gen (PT) series PS2 until the HDD came out, then I picked up the third/final gen online kit (PX). Had it for about four years, still works great. If/when it dies I'm gonna pick up a Slim.

    RDM Merits?

    That's not the point I was trying to make. I honestly could care less about being at half my HP for a good part, but there are those situations where you do and will get hit in a merit party. Happens to me all the time, but I blame melees that don't voke and get hit too much that cause me to...
