Also Legacy of Kain: Defiance.

Just bought Frontlines: Fuel of War on Steam. I'll let you know if it's any good.

It's a decent game, gets old fast though. It plays a lot like battle field.

gets old fast though

I was hoping the MP would prevent that :\

That's just my opinion though, you might think different. I didn't even play much of the single player, and I was going by MP experience mainly.
It's really neat and defiantly a cool game, I just thought it got really old after awhile. It felt like a giant game of territories over and over and it took forever.

I didn't like the fact that while there is vehicles, they're not always available and hardly available at that, so you're stuck running from end to end on these massive levels just to get to one checkpoint thing and if you do get a vehicle, someone can easily be anti-vehicle with homing missiles and destroy you before you know what hit you. Plus you die extremely easy. So you could spend 3 minutes jsut running somewhere and get shot and get respawned on the other side. :/

Again, It's a neat game, I don't think you'll regret it, and you might or might not even agree with some on my points when you play, it's just not my type of game.

I guess I just prefer Halo, COD or something rather than GRAW and Battlefield type games.

As far as graphics go, they are very nice, but a lot of things didn't feel all that next gen to me.

Hope you like it though man, let me know how you feel after playing some!
I'm kind of hard to please sometimes and am used to playing bioshock, gears, halo, cod, and stuff so maybe I'm just used to games that really blow my mind.

I like pretty much all shooters in general, so this will probably appeal to me more than it did you Thanks for the input!

[Libra]

Defiantly man, it's a good game! I heard it was the developers first try at this kind of game and they passed with flying colors in my opinion.

As today was the release date I went and bought myself Megaman ZX Advent. Played a couple of levels. I'm really surprised that the English voice acting was removed! There are no voices at all now except in cutscenes. Not that it matters at all because the acting was terrible in the American version.

Tales of Destiny: Director's Cut, the Premium Box version.

...my Leon fanboyism pales in comparison. ;__; I'd buy it, but I already bought the original release of ToDR, and as much as I like Inomata's designs, I just can't justify it to myself.

In saying that, I almost bought another copy of Tales of Destiny 2 when in Japan. That counts, right? That little bone mask hides nothing. ^^;

Anyway, I so nearly bought a new PC's worth of components yesterday. It had 2GB of RAM and all sorts of other deliciousness. I even got an abrasively pink case. ;__; Unfortunately my conscience kicked in at the last minute, I felt bad about spending so much on something I didn't really need, and I hastily cancelled the order. Damn you, Jiminy Cricket.

Instead I comforted myself by buying this:

Buying a new PC is ludicrous, but naturally buying a boxset consisting of two games that you've already finished one and a half of the PC versions of is totally sensible.

I was planning to play Lost Odyssey which I preordered a while ago, but it turns out they managed to sell out their entire stock before they could ship mine... and they said I might had to wait quite a while for it.

So I decided that, hey, 299NOK for Persona 3 with an artbook and soundtrack is alright, and besides, I've heard real good stuff about it. So I ordered it to compensate for my lack of Lost Odyssey... but:

"Leveringstid: Beställningsvara7-10 Arbeidsdager"

Sweden is such an assholish country.

I actually can't find a single online store that has it in stock.

EDIT: Persona 3, that is.

Wow, glad I pre-ordered mine on best buy. Actually playing it right now.

There's a shitload of boss battles. 0_o
