My mom was watching our daughter while we were in Japan living it up. I know she had some issues with our TV set up. We only use XBOX and stream from our PC. So somehow she screwed a bunch of settings up (even though all she had to do was turn on the TV and turn on XBOX and go to Netflix) and now my whole Batman Arkham City game is gone. All my progress. I feel like I'm 16 "MOOOOOMMM! JEEZE!" I don't know what set of button mashing she did, but she must have gone nuts one night. I guess it's a good excuse to run through it on Hard but still, I wasn't totally done either. FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS UGH!

Just played the first "tutorial" level of Child of Eden. Wow. Holy freaking EYE & EAR CANDY!!!! This is the game I have been waiting for years!!!!! It's pretty much a sequel to Rez. And I'm playing it OG style too (just the controller, no Move/Kinect configuration). As to be expected by Tetsuya Mizaguchi (Lumines, Rez) it's a pure music/rhythm game, but YOU are interacting with the music and adding layers to the composition. Visually, one of the most eye-orgasmic (yes) and stunning looking games I have played. Colors pulsing, music pounding, and the merge of that with the gameplay is just over-sensory. Plus, the live-action footage used in combination to tell the "story" is just beautiful. I would call this a "future" game. And best way to describe it is if you merge Discovery's "Planet Earth" with the stargate sequence from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Can't wait to clock many, many playthroughs on this one!

i just love uncharted 3 online.

and gitaroo man

Gitaroo Man. Such a great game.

I want another Parappa the Rapper with Tyler the Creator and Childish Gambino as characters.

Yeah I guess Tyler could be the new Parappa

current dividing my time between Skyrim and SWTOR

You beta testing SWTOR? i had the chance to but i've got next to zero time right now moving house and all.
Skyrim is definitely on the top of my list for the holidays, got a full week to kill when everyone else is back at work for that.

Played the new Batman for maybe an hour and then returned it. So many flaws with the game play and glitches galore it wasn't anything like people were making it out to be..i was bummed..but I picked up the new Rayman Origins and I love it! Reminds me of earthworm jim style with the graphics and characters..excellent game!

That Rayman Origins demon blew me away! The colors, the animation, it was like playing a cartoon! REALLY cool game! Definitely on my list to pick up this year...

Just rented Skyrim... I have tomorrow off... what character build should I go for right away to have an enjoyable experience? I'm not familiar with sword and spell combat type games.

evylwyzyrd -- You're actually on my friends list, apparently. I was whooping some ass tonight, climbing those rankings with my denim demon 'Gief. Feel free to play me anytime!

bought arkham city for $30 off amazon over the weekend. fun game so far. i like it more than arkham asylum.

Let me show you where to go for questions & visual aides on that subject: http://www.twitch.tv/directory/The%20El ... :%20Skyrim

Good luck!

Thank you! This website is intense! I immediately started looking at the Halo:Reach vids haha. When is the next Fallout shipping?

Back in town and back at Dark Souls . . . I love to hate it

Just got the Metal Gear HD collection, going to finish up Metal Gear Solid with my friend and then play through 2,3,4 and Peace Walker. Looking forward to revisiting all of these games.

1000G at Dead Island today!
Skyrim and Rage just came in the mail

NG+ now, right?

Still excited after 150 hrs! Rarely have I played a game that I was still into after having pretty much swept every little corner I could find.
And NG+ is even better!!

Been thinking about this, not sure I'll find the time but this collection is very tempting, considering all those games on one blue ray! I'd love a HD version of the PSX MGS.

So MG:S is missing?
I'd consider buying if it were included, but I'm guessing it's PS3 platform titles only eh?

I think MGS4 may be the only game that has ever made me cry, definitely in recent memory at least.

all I've been playing lately is Dark Souls. it actually got way too easy for me later on, so in New Game + I'm thinking I should look for ways to make it harder for myself like I did back in the day with playthroughs of Castlevania SotN. despite this the more little bits I learn about it the more I love it.

I think before I do that though I want to potentially revisit some old RPGs, namely the LUNAR games.

I was fine until the end, and then you just kind of cry manly tears for Snake, especially when Otokon says the line about Snakes Life.
It doesn't include MGS:1 but you can get it from the PS store for 10 bucks, it's not HD, but it stands the test of time better than any other 3D PSX game I've ever played.

Anyone playing Saints Row 3? I'm thinking of picking it up but never played the other 2.
