Halloween. I'm almost through my sporadically annual replay of REmake.

Played the first hour of Dead Space 2 and couldn't get into it at all. Turning it into a popcorn shooter wasn't a good move.

My new dick thing to do in Diablo III is to break off from the party and race to the exits using my fast Demon Hunter with its dash move that allows it to dart past monster hoards. The other thing I do is trigger large monster hoards and lure them back to the party and then dash away. I don't know why I find being a subtle douchebag funny.

No it drops much more frequently (it's been widely said among the press), and I question what your friend said becasue I picked up around 30 legendies during my first playthrough. Yes I did prioritize "increase magic drop" when picking equipment, but still.

After talking trash about Diablo III, I got sucked into to. My first playthrough using the Wizard was way too easy on the normal difficulty setting and it really hurt the experience. On my second playthrough I notched up the difficulty, played as the Amazon + Assassin (I forget what they're calling him/her--Demon Hunter?), and it suddenly became fun. It's still monotonous, it's too long, and I still think the environments should've been much more diverse and unique, but to me Diablo's always been the evolution of Smash TV, and I like that arcadey formula. I also gotta say I think it play

I just beat Diable 3 for the first time (I played the 360 version), and I know I'm a year late but man was it disappointing. The level themes are all vanilla (forest, desert, blahblahblah), there weren't any memorable monsters like the pygmy witch doctors from Diablo 2, and they shouldn't have dumbed down character customization because it makes an already simple game feel too simple. It felt like a textbook example of a soulless, corporate sequel. I like playing it with the controller though.

I just bought Diablo 3 for the 360 on my way home. I haven't played Diablo 3 for the PC (always-on DRM needs to die) but I was a big fan of Diablo 2 so I'm kinda looking forward to it.

Did you play DmC? If so, what did you think of it?

The story does get better. Other than that, the game doesn't evolve much in terms of gameplay, you'll get a ship that allow you to travel to different time as you wish and you'll learn new double/triple techs, get more party members. Eh I'll keep playing. While a charming game, the gameplay feels so blah. The techs are cool, but I'm not that big on the combat. I can only play the game in like 30 minute chunks. I played it for the first time early this year and that was my take on it too. I lasted about 6 hours before quitting.

I like Dream Team quite a bit more than BIS because I think has a much better overworld (I thought BIS' overworld was often boring) along with better graphics (to me the 3D graphics and 3D effect brings the world to life a lot more), more happens inbetween the start and finish of the story, and it has a great soundtrack. The first few hours aren't as strong as BIS, Fawful's a better bad guy, and its a bit bloated though. Unless you have really different opinions on each of the Mario & Luigi games--like you think BIS is great but PIT sucks--I don't think you can go wrong with DT if you've

BIS doesn't have much dialogue or story inbetween its beginning and ending scenes.

39 hours with rescuing most of the Pillow guys along the way.

I just finished M&L Dream Team, and I really liked it but man it was long for a Mario RPG. Too long. And some of the boss fights were also too long. And the main plot never took off. But it's really good about introducing new mechanics the whole way through, it's a lot more ambitious than Bowser's Inside Story, its really playable, and the dialogue is better and more frequent than BIS too. Now long was it?

SMT IV is around 60 hours long? There's no way I'm going to finish this. I agree with Dili that it's very paint-by-the-numbers so far and it's a lot less visually appealing than Nocturne. The combat system is so stale I feel like an assembly line robot playing it.

looks interesting. how much is it? $8 and it's around 3 hours long. If money's an issue at all, I wouldn't do it.
