What are you playing right now?

Multi - Console Video Game discussions. From the ancient days of Atari to the current generation of PS5 and XBOX Series X. And of course PC and Mobile. What are you playing right now?

Nice, but I did not like the Retro Lancer in the game. The recoil alone kept making me swap it out.

My unemployed friends beat me to the 50 Wave Horde achievement. (But, they are willing to help me a along. ;) ) We usually make up a team of Carmine, Cole Train, the British Lady and Ice-T. Yes, we know their character names, but to us, Griffin is Ice-T dammit!

And leave Dom's tomatoes alone! >:(

Thanks! I agree on the Retro Lancer in
the game. Very unsteady too, thoug-
h I did like the bayonet charge. I
guess since those friends are
in the predicament that th-
ey are in, they can affor-
d to spend countless h-
ours in horde mode,
so they have an u-
nfair advantage
in a way (laug-
hs). But thin-
k of it this
way; you
have t-
he a-
dv-
antag-
e of bein-
g able to inv-
est in more gam-
es than they (laugh-
s). Ice-T is Griffin in G-
ears 3. He voice acts the c-
haracter... so I guess they are
one and the same. Have you seen
his unboxing of Gears 3 video? I'll po-
st it below. I would like to help you with
the Horde achievement, but I can barely g-
et online these days without interruption unle-
ss I'm playing 1 or 2 am (EST) and on Sunday sin-
ce my work week is pretty much booked. Oh, and d-
on't worry, I stepped OVER Dom's tomato field, but tha-
t Lambent human showed complete disregard. Soloist ducks!

Excellent! Thanks for posting the video. I did miss it when it was originally posted.

I am surprised at the size of the replica Lancer. Also, nice to see celebrities have difficulties like the rest of us with packaging. :lol:

Grabbed the new Portal 2 DLC, looking for someone wanting to play.

I have both the 360 and Steam version, so I can play with anyone. (For anyone with the PC version, I'm also looking for anyone wanting to run some Co-Op custom maps.) Steam name is same as XBL GT.

Not a problem, Masa! I'm glad you
finally got a chance to watch it
(laughs). Seeing celebrities
go through things that w-
e do makes them see-
m almost human, r-
ight (laughs)? Th-
e replica Lance-
r is kind of la-
rge in size a-
nd with a d-
ecent wei-
ght to it.
Actua-
lly it
is:

36 x 5 x 10 inches (in size) ; 14 pounds (in weight)

:nod:

C-
ongr-
atulatio-
ns on acqui-
ring the new D-
LC for Portal 2, P-
elord! You know I'd r-
eally like to... but sched-
uling the right time (uninte-
rrupted) is always the case wit-
h me. I'll try for Castlevania again
this coming Sunday if all goes well. I
will let you know as the week progresses.

That's great, TStodden! Con-
gratulations! I'd like to o-
wn those other Drago-
n Warrior (Quest)
games as well
since I'm a
fan of t-
he fr-
an-
chise,
but time
and limited
resources don't
allow this (laughs).
For now, I hope to ge-
t into this one very soon.

I should have gotten the Collector's for AC, but I let my disappointment with the AA's blind me. I can always pick it up later though. :)

By the way, at the AC launch, some guys were wondering where to put Batman. I told them on the Skyrim dragon battling Marcus Fenix.

Finished Gears 3 earlier in the week and started up on Arkham City. As was Asylum, it's another well done Batman game so far! Love that they really got the characterizations done right. Gotta get in what time I can as once Skyrim comes out, nothing else exists :lol: Except possibly the occasional match with the upcoming WWE '12, but otherwise... :gamer:

Laughs! Yeah, that would have been the ideal
location for the Batman figurine, but it wo-
uld been even better while battling the B-
ig Daddy figure from the first Bioshock
collector's edition. I too wasn't please-
d with AA's bonus content and wasn't
going for this sequel's either, but a
Gamestop employ informed me of
what was included and I was the-
n sold (plus it wasn't too late fo-
r me to pre-purchase it). Cong-
ratulations on getting Arkham
City, Masa! I do hope that yo-
u are able to get the collect-
or's edition later on. I kno-
w some stores get extra,
after sales drop a bit, s-
o there's still hope. Co-
ngratulations on com-
pleting Gears 3, Roe-
mello! AC is definit-
ely the right mood,
atmosphere and s-
tyle for Batman a-
s a character an-
d the quality v-
oices help con-
siderably (no-
t to mentio-
n the paci-
ng, dialo-
g, comb-
at syst-
em, e-
tc.) I
kno-
w whe-
n Skyrim
appears, I a-
m going to hav-
e to set up my ne-
w gaming area... an-
d soon! If not, I'll inter-
rupted at every possible m-
oment (laughs). Fare thee we-
ll free time, siblings, friends, etc.

I've set up a location where I can play
my 360, so chances are that whe-
never possible, I'll be playing
Skyrim. Just letting that
be known now (laugh-
s). While I won't b-
e able to spend
as much tim-
e with it a-
s I'd like,
at leas-
t I ca-
n pl-
a-
y mo-
re than I
have been a-
s of recent tim-
es (laughs). I've co-
mpleted Gears of War 3
and was going to go back f-
or achievements, but that will
have to wait. Skyrim will be next!

:nod:

Not playing Skyrim (or for that matter, MW3) :P

I did pick up Sonic Generations for the 360 last week (already got 1000GS, but still playing some time trials and such), and someone gave me Terraria on Steam.

Congratulations on acquiring Skyrim,
Roemello and congrats to you Pe-
lord for investing in Sonic Ge-
nerations! I'm holding Bat-
man off for the holida-
ys, but was able to
get Skyrim whic-
h will be play-
ed NOW (l-
aughs)!
Poor
B-
atm-
an may
expired du-
e to neglect t-
hanks to Skyrim
in Roemello's house-
hold (laughs). How is S-
onic Generations, Pelord?
I've been hearing mixed rev-
iews of it so far due to the inco-
nsistent level design with some be-
ing stellar while other seemingly unin-
spired. But it's difficult to trust corporate
backed gaming sites which is why I value the
opinion of the gamers here. Here's my SE Skyrim:

Finished Arkham City over the weekend, so finally got into Skyrim today! And I can already tell this one is gonna take a looooooooong time :lol: But I'm prepared for whenever I do finish with a fresh lineup of titles... Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Super Mario Land 3D (though that'll I'll get into mobile) and the Halo anniversary HD reboot :gamer:
