What Game Should I Get?

[Lythium]

Borderlands is excellent. It's great for single player and even better for co-op. Mix quest style gameplay with Diablo loot. I've probably put in more hours in this game recently than any other.

 

[Kantō]

Bayonetta is the ****. Just finished it and was very pleased with the entire game. Check it out if ya got 60 bux.

 

[Lythium]

Agreed. I'm playing it right now. It's the shizz.

 

[A17]

Dirt 2 for 60$, SSFIV for 40$ (given that I already own SFIV), Burnout Paradise + SSFII HDR for 35$?

I have 30$ store credit at futureshop btw.

 

[Lythium]

So, let me get this straight. You can buy a racing game for $60, a fighting game for $40 that is nearly identical to one you already own, or BOTH for $35?

I think your selection would be obvious!

I really enjoyed Muramasa. It's also very pretty.

I have to agree, Muramasa was a pretty awesome game.

Now, I've got a kind of predicament. My friend has preordered Global Agenda on the premise that me and our other two friends would also get it. I played the Beta at his house and really enjoyed it, thinking I was going to get it. This, however, changed when I heard that there is a level cap of 30 if you don't pay for a subscription (since the p2p is optional) and that is really turning me off from it.

My question is this: Should I spend the $50 on GA or save up for a bit, buy myself a PS3 and get FF XIII, FF Versus XIII, and FF XVI?

Yeah, I'm looking for an MMO, but inb4 WoW cause I already quit.

The selection is obvious if I used variables you suggest. Witness.

Let x represent racing games.
Let y represent fighting games.

x for $60
y for $40
x + y for $35

The problem is however, Dirt 2 =/= Burnout Paradise, in value or gameplay; Super Street Fighter IV =/= Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix.

I am still unsure how I should spend this $30 to be honest. Maybe I should steal some ps3 games, and then sell 'em all to future shop and then purchase a pair of Bose Around-Ear Headphones which I longed to own so long. Everyone at school's got a pair so I'm not too afraid that someone will steal it.[/joke]

Maybe i'll buy Mirror's Edge, and a $20 PSN card and purchase the DLC for ME, and alternate costumes for SF4 and a few avatars

@ above post. dont buy it if something really make you not like it.

Alright guys, here's one for you.

Mass Effect 2
Bioshock 2
Borderlands

All look amazing, but I only really wanna buy one. I loved the first Bioshock, to say the least. I know there's a Multiplayer involved now too, but it may be bad. I've heard good things about ME2 also. I thought it might be something to look into. And Borderlands, I've seen a bunch of stuff about it having great Co-Op, and Multiplayer and whatnot..

Now, which one to choose? >_<

 

[Adm. Melonhead]

I am getting a PS3 soon and i am differed on what should be my first game.

1. Soul Calibur 4
2. Little Big Planet

Other facts:

1. My friend REALLY REALLY REALLY wants me to get soul calibur so I can give sc2 to her >_>
2. Little Big Planet was the first reason I really wanted a PS3, and I youtube everything LBP to death.
3. I could just screw it and get the PSN remake of atari's "combat"

 

[Frown]

It sounds like if you want LBP more. Go with that one.

Mass Effect 2 looks freakin' amazing, I'd get that one if I were you

 

[smash brawl player 99021]

I checked out ME2, but I'm not much into 3rd Person Shooters :/

I'm getting Bioshock 2. Bioshock 1 made me a MAN.

You've made the right choice.

I'm thinking about getting a PS3, should I just get the new slim or should I waste extra money for the backwards compatibility on ebay?

 

[Frown]

Depends. Are there any PS2 games you really want? If so, you could probably get a used PS2 for fifty bucks.

I have a PS2 but it's kinda crappy and I also kinda want linex and kinda don't.

 

[ranmaru]

If you have a PS2, get Star Ocean. Very good rpg thats better than Xenosaga, I believe. Man, I got more than 80 hours from that and from xenosaga I only got 40!

Star Ocean is almost like Valkarie Profile 2, but not as advanced.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Is it worth getting New Super Mario Bros. Wii? I enjoyed New Super Mario Bros. a fair amount.

I would like some opinions on it from the community. ^.^

[StealthyGunnar]

Borderlands or ME2 or.......



LEGO BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[day-day]

I heart ME2 is legit and one of the best games out so far but I haven't played any of them so can't judge which is better. I guess if you're going to play with friends go with borderlands, you want a story and a rpg get ME2, and uh..if you like batman get lego batman lol

 

[Sephiroths Masamune]

border lands doesn't seem appealing to me but get it if you want ME2 is a good choice and Lego batman isn't that expensive you can probably get that and one of the others.

 

[Nihongo-ookami]

PROBLEM.

I have $60.
What game to buy?

FFXIII
or
God Of War III?

I just want a fun game that I can play for a long time and not get bored.

FFXIII so much better, it will also last longer
in god of war i get the feeling you just:
1)go somewere
2)see some big thing
3)tap some buttons
4)kill the big think
5)repeat steps 1-4

but then again if you dont like waiting ages at a time to see some amazing CG and you just want to play i'd go with GoWIII

I'm a traditional FF fan. The less it is like the older ones, the less chances of me liking it.

God of War is just epic.

So if FFXIII isn't too different, I'll get that. If it is, well, I'll be killing Zeus. Either way, I'm getting a good game.

I'd like to hear some other opinions, though.

 

[Anonymous Brawler]

Anyone here play patapon 2? And dont start saying its a stupid game

Spoiler

or else you will die!

I never played the wii version before, but if it is like the ds one, then it sucks. Its hell easy to beat the game. It took me one hour to get to bowser. Go play super mario world.

 

[A17]

it's like the DS one but with an ice suit and that helicopter suit and some stuff you need to do with tilting your remote. other wise it is pretty much the same.

anyway I got Burnout Paradise for $20 and I got the complete edition DLC for another $20.

the complete edition is taking all existing DLC packs and then bunching them together for $20. Normally all these packs would cost $67, so I saved $47, what a steal! just the money saved is enough to buy the game along with a $20 Network Card. Anyone want to play?!?!?!

 

[Meta_Sonic64]

All this talk of games and I'm surprised no one mentioned BFBC2

 

[Igcoris]

star ocean 3? that was good, and so was VP2. I didn't like Xenosaga that much =\

^what's BFBC2?

Get it. If you enjoyed NSMB, you'll definitely enjoy NSMBW. It's a lot better and is more like world/SMB3 then it is like the original NSMB. Its far more challenging and the stages are a lot more creative.

 

[The Real Gamer]

what's BFBC2?

Battlefield Bad Company 2

 

[Anonymous Brawler]

Yeah! Finally a challenging mario game!

 

[Darkslash]

Well Bad Company 2....its pure bliss, and the only trouble you should have with it is decideing between it and Heavy Rain.

Defining online Warfare is right.

FFXIII looks amazing, the in game graphics are supposed to look like the pre-rendered cut scenes that look similar to advent children graphics. I hear the battle system is a mix of the old RPG style and the more western style.

 

[tko112]

rite now, da game 2 get iz mega man 10, its looks epic 2 me

 

[Shinku]

i just got final fantasy 13, freaking sweet

 

[Adm. Melonhead]

Final Fantasy XIII

or

Batman Arkham Asylum

 

[finalark]

Those to games are very different, what are you into?

 

[SyOn]

if you like JRPG's you should definitely get Final Fantasy XIII

 

[Lythium]

Final Fantasy XIII

or

Batman Arkham Asylum

Both are excellent, so you really can't go wrong.

 

[Adm. Melonhead]

I'd say my vidya gaem interest are pretty well rounded.

Well I've seen gameplay for batman, and I know it has tons of awards, plus my dad wants to play it >.>

And I have the original final fantasy for the NES, and I liked it. My favorite RPG of all time was paper mario 64, so if it's as good as that then I'm in.

 

[A17]

If you hate turn-based combat, no FF.
