Good luck! I've never been able to even make it to the titular temple in this game. D:
Finished Fear 3 last night. Not impressed. The original game is still the best followed by 2, then 3. I think the series needs a reboot. 2/5 for me.
Started Apache Air Assault last night. My son was the gunner while I was piloting. Pretty cool concept. We hit a slight roadblock on mission 2. I hate having to protect something for X amount of time in any game. Those are just the worst. Anyway, we'll get back at it today and give it another shot.
The Book of Unwritten Tales (PC)
Decent adventure game, but was missing something. Good graphics/environment, humor, and puzzles. I think even with the art direction, it lacked some environment/immersion and the story was only mildly engaging. This probably prevented it from being a classic like TLJ or Grim Fandango.
Next: Splitting time between Deus Ex: HR (PC) and Catherine (PS3)

Just beat (well... about 2 weeks ago): Gears 3
Felt like a lot of the same from the 2nd game (which IMO was a vast improvement over Gears 1). I think the biggest, and probably what will keep me playing, improvement to 3 was the multiplayer. Hopping online and playing Horde with random strangers is usually incredibly fun. And Beast mode is a definite welcome. When you are having a boring night and there is nothing else to do Horde can easily kill a ton of time and of course I'm a level-up whore and won't stop until I've topped out my rank! I couldn't really keep up with the story in this one as it felt too convoluted and spread out... the whole Cole visiting his hometown part was a huge snoozer to me. And most of the game felt the same... move here, kill that... move here, kill that... oh boy here come some stalks I'd better shoot the pods... *yawn*... but it was pepped up by the different takedowns and finishing moves. The retro lancer is a ton of fun :D! I'm sure I'll still be on this game on Live! from time to time to get my Horde on. And my offer still stands for anyone wanting to coop INSANE!
Up next: I'm in the middle of Skyrim and absolutely love the atmosphere and story of the game. So far I'm a level 18 Redguard specializing in Two-Hand and Heavy Armor and I take down dragons and pretty much everything else LIKE A BOSS. BRING IT, ALDUIN!!!
Also: My brother just gifted me Battlefield 3 for Christmas and I'm interested to see how the multiplayer is compared to MW3. I bought him MW3 for Christmas and gave it to him a week early and we sat down to play it together and I felt like the gameplay was WAY too fast compared to BLOPS. I could hardly keep up! :sadpanda:
Finished Super Meat Boy light side and about half of the dark worlds and fell in love with it. Must play if you miss old platformers and haven't yet.
Also went through Orcs Must Die. It's a more arcade style action/tower-defense game than Dungeon Defenders. Worth a play if you get it cheap but you can tear through the normal difficulty in a few hours.
Beat Batman: Arkham City! Game was awesome; I loved it.
Next: Probably more Arkham City! Or I will go try to beat Dark Souls finally!
I'm finding myself despising Arkham City. I loved the original. This one just forces you into dumb situations.

you messed up the spoiler tag! It's spoil, not spoiler.

Just beat Portal 2. Great game but I thought the whole "space" bit was silly.
Now need someone to play co-op.
Didn't start back on Apache; instead went with Skylanders. My son wasn't playing it on his xbox so I borrowed it and played all the way through. It's pretty fun and in some cases not as easy as you'd think. Switching characters is pretty cool and you can get by with what comes with the game; but we have several and I tried them all. Pretty fun indeed. There's some PVP battles you can do as well as play through the campaign with a friend by adding a second skylander to the portal. Really enjoyed the game.....4/5!
Don't know what I'm moving onto now. Need to get back to Sacred and/or Apache, but Mafia II is calling me.... :(
I really like Mafia 2, I think a lot of people wanted it to be a GTA like sandbox and it isn't. That said I enjoyed it a lot and almost bought it a second time recently just to play through it again.
I love Mafia 2 its like being able to have shoot-em ups inside of a movie.
Mega Mall Story just came out for Android a day or two ago, so I've been rushing to finish up my second playthrough of predecessor Epic Space Story (Kairosoft games are really made to play through at least twice). Epic Space Story may be my favorite of all the games they've made thus far, though I say that about every new game they release (except the property management/layout games like Hot Springs Story and World Cruise Story, neither of which I bothered to finish).
