Just beat Witcher 2 on 360 with 100% achievements.
Pros:
The story and political intrigue was exceptional.
I especially liked how the story and locations changed so drastically based on your decisions.
The combat on Dark difficulty had a lot of depth. I had to play it similar to Dark Souls.
The Polish voice acting was very good and atmospheric.
Mission types were pretty diverse
Cons:
Navigation was horrendous.
The sword fighting training tree seemed much more useful than the alchemy and magic tree (This is probably due to personal playstyle but I couldn't find a use for the magic and alchemy).
The english voice acting was poor and changed the whole atmosphere of the game in a bad way.
Rating:
3 out of 5 - A must play for fans of western rpgs

Just beat Dragon Age: Origins. I played it when it first came out, but got to the last battle and never finished it. Glad I decided to play it again, forgot how much fun it is. I went with Alistair (Sword and Board), Morrigan (DPS / Debuff), Wynne (Healing), and Elven Mage as my player (DPS). It was a walk in the park on normal with three mages.

I'm still debating starting it up on PS3. The resale value is so low and I bought the Ultimate bundle not knowing the PC version and consoles supposedly play like two completely different games.

Well, Steam is having a sale on it now, if you feel like spending $7.49 for it. I can't really comment on the console version, since I never played it. It seems like it would be hard to use a controller with a class that has a ton of abilities (mages).

What you gonna do?!?
Yes, the PC version is better. It is however not that big of a difference. I've seen both versions in action personally.

Got it for the cheap price. I'll probably start it up after I finish Final Fantasy 4 on the PSP/Vita.

Played through Grotesque Tactics 2. It's just as buggy as the first. Actually, it is probably a bit shorter in total length vs. the first one.
I'm not sure I would recommend either game, but I don't regret playing either of them.

What you gonna do?!?
I just beat Borderlands 2
I did not enjoy it at all, from the long waves of enemies to the fact that they are bullet sponges just irritated the hell out of me. The writing, while better than the original's was still not as good as the General Knoxx expansion pack. Also, Claptrap and Jack were very irritating. Claptrap, just because he bothers me, and Jack because he is a blatant ripoff of Sterling Archer. I would give it a 6/10.

yep... i bought both diablo3 and borderlands2 on day1 and regretted both... im just not a fan of the mindless and endless, MMORPG style loot-grab gameplay. it reminds me too much of crappy freemium and iOS/Android games like tiny tower and farmville...
i think thats why i also didnt enjoy Xenoblade very much... the story and characters were nothing special and gameplay was boring and tedious (some people love this though)

I've been absolutely loving Borderlands 2. Kinda boring single player, but it's a ton of fun to co-op. I was actually able to get my 3 best friends to buy it. 4-player co-op goodness.

Seems fun so far. I remember people talking about it back when it came out on XBox.

Game is great! Marred by some absolutely horrible netcode.

Just finished up Mark of the Ninja. It takes too long to get auto stealth kills (makes the game a LOT more fluid) and I hate using an analog stick when I need precision in a game that basically has digital control. The decision to use the same button for both pick up body and hide was dumb. Other than that a pretty solid game. Now to finish up Max Payne 3.
