how are you liking kirby?

I'm enjoying it, I've played through it all with my girlfriend so she's having a good time too. It's a nice time burner if anything, not really challenging or nothing but the art never grows old.

Is it better than Canvas Curse?

[-GD-X★ 7,920]

canvas curse offered more of a challenge. though both play extremely well. i'd give the edge to canvas curse.

yeah i dug all the cool play mechanics.

Better in what way? Even though they're Kirby games the only real comparison is the main character. The gameplay elements are bawlin' and different in both.

I'm thinking of benching DQ9 in favor of FF4 on the ds (haven't played ff4 in years)

Waiting for FO:NV to leak so passing the time with trying Blur and Split Second at last.

Finished Red Dead Redemption. I'll probably write a longer opinion about it once I get bored of running around finishing up the challenges and other side stuff' date=' but man, what an ending to an absolutely fantastic game.[/quote']GOTY.

It's the best game I've played this year, easily.

Most badass ending this gen

Spoiler

Agreed, but the ending was amazing for more than just the badassery. The character development through most of the game, and especially the missions with John and his family, developed an attachment to John and I actually wanted to kill Agent Ross in the game because of what he did. You spend most of the game chasing Bill and when you finally kill him I just didn't care, I put a bullet in his head and moved on to the next mission. When I found Agent Ross at the river I didn't even bother trying to disarm him like I had done at least once in every duel in the game, I put six bullets in his face without thinking twice.

The emotional response I had from the ending was what cemented Red Dead Redemption as my favorite game of the year, John just happened to go out like a badass.

Really? You thought the character development was good?

Not really, it's more the characterization of John that made him likable. Character development was a poor choice of words since he really doesn't change much from beginning to end.

I hate Europe, I could be playing FO:NV by now, but no, we have to release games on Fridays for some stupid fucking reason.

Vanquish Game owns

i want to play it!

[soup 105]

Yeah, it's a fun ass game. I beat the first Act before going to bed. Decided to go to New Vegas' midnight release and shit on a few numbskulls and pick up Vanquish. You'd be surprised how many people were like "Bethesda didn't do this one? :|"

[-GD-X★ 7,920]

LOL

[soup 105]

Yeah, the Demo level is like 15-20 minutes into the game so it's been nothing but freshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[-GD-X★ 7,920]

[soup 105]

[-GD-X★ 7,920]
