Whatcha Been Playin': PAX Edition

OT, but how do you like that Samsung monitor? Is that the version with the TV tuner built in or no? I've been thinking about purchasing one

Yeah. It's the T240HD. It pretty much exceeded my expectations which are usually high when it comes to electronics. Digital tv plus PS2 and 360 use for me. There are tons of settings and the likes. PQ is very good and I haven't come across any major issues like lag.

My badge of shame. Still haven't beat the game - sitting at 75 stars. Not going to force myself to get them all - doing that ruined Mario64 for me.

Got about 20-25 hours out of my rental before I sent it back. Will probably buy it when it hit $35 or less, or if they release some more levels via DLC.

Still loving this game. Picked up a nice used DS copy for $16.
 
Correct me if I'm imagining things, but didn't these threads used to trend more towards listing games alongside quick impressions, rather than just being a massive wall of images with little to no other substance? Let's do that.

Playing now:

Galaga Legions- Gaplus + Ikaruga = GOTY. It's a shame so many people are apparently saying this isn't Galaga and just writing it off; While it may indeed be rather far-removed, it's a fantastic game in its own right. As a high-score game it's stunningly crafted, one of the best I've ever played.

Castle Crashers- I haven't been able to join a single game over Live yet, and playing beat-em-ups in single player kinda blows. I appreciate the game in theory, but without the vital component of multiplayer, I'm just on the outside looking in for now. :(

FFTA2: GotR- I was on a vacation last week and this sucked me in pretty bad, great time-waster. Just about 100 missions in, and I'm playing 'em all, none of that dispatch milarkey (where it's not required). It is kind of annoying that I still haven't even encountered a Seeq or [whatever those dragon ladies are called] that will join my party this far in, and I still have a good handful of jobs to unlock for the races I do have. I really don't like that you have to do specific missions before you can use a lot of classes, that would have been cool for maybe a small handful of the higher-powered ones, not a dozen or so.

I always do an image coupled with a sentence or two, but noone ever seems to read them, so maybe I should stop doing even that :P.

Threads like this are typically not read by anyone, just posted in by everyone.
 
I played Rock Band 2 at an industry event last night and I'm LOVING the new drums/songs! Anyone want to set up a distraction so I can snag a copy from the stage today?! :lol

This weekend I'll spend whatever non football dedicated time I have playing Warhawk, Bad Company and the R2 Beta.
 
Tomb Raider - Legend

Roller coaster ride of a game so far and aiming with a gamepad is the best I ever pld with.
