soxsoxsoxsox Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Bastion is brilliant. Great graphics \ art \ soundtrack \ narration. Best game I've played thru in a long time. Great overall feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenksismyhero Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Gears 3 is ok, at least the horde mode. Really that's about the only part of the game I'll play. The story sucks so hard in those games, and despite all of the reviews, I feel like the graphics are really starting to get dated on the 360. The options to add various defenses and upgrade them is a good twist though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand how anyone can prefer a 3rd person shooter game.. 3rd person is terrible for that type of game, its why I hate GOW multiplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Just bought a couple PS Move games. Some "TV Superstars" game that was like $13 on Amazon, and also "EA Active 2", a workout game that I could actually use, and a game my mother might actually enjoy playing when I am home over the summer. It was $19. So I am happy w/ my Amazon purchases. Now I just need to get a 2nd Move controller, and probably those "nunchuck" controllers too.

I have a borderline addiction to Madden Ultimate Team. If I ever find myself spending real money on it I may have to seek professional help.

flippedoutpunk Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 QUOTE (MattZakrowski @ Sep 23, 2011 -> 04:09 PM) Pre-ordered FIFA 12 on Amazon. I'm really damn excited to play it. I've been playing it non stop with that Ea Sports Season Ticket. Career mode is a lot of fun so far.. the scouting is completely different. You no longer have to spend your budget on upgrading offensive, defensive coaches, stadium upgrades etc. Player progression seems good. I bought Neymar from Santos as an 84 overall and by the end of the season he was a 89 overall due to his fantastic season (32 total goals). The soundtrack is freaking amazing as well, even better than last years which i didn't think was possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 EA Active 2 arrived at the apartment today. I let my roommate give it a shot first. She really liked it and I think we are both going to try the 9 week program. The only problem is, there are not multiple profiles on one game. How is that possible? Did they seriously make this game so only 1 person can work out? I ended up finding a workaround by creating another user on my PS3, and then logging in with that user, then starting the game up. This seems to work, but how dumb of them not to build in the ability to have multiple users and programs. Also, is there any way to just play the games, or do you have to do the workouts and hope you get some fun ones like basketball shooting and mountain climbing?

Wonder if it's worth the upgrade from FIFA 11 though The guided missile pressure button has been removed, and I guess you have to play real defense now. Also youth squads/scouting is in Manager Mode, so that's huge for me. Can't wait to play it tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a more authentic game of soccer, which is good for those who really enjoy it, but bad for those who just want to have fun by scoring a s*** ton of goals. I think I might give it a try when I have the time. I personally liked PES 11 with player mods better than FIFA 11.
