Just wasn't my year

Me and Kat would play Mario kart Wii during urtv


Then she voted meowhollykingman back in

actually

bumped spore up to played. I never got to the last 2 stages but i still put in enough time for it to count as played

its just that the rest of the game looked really fucking terrible

GTA IV - I really did enjoy it for what it was and going from what we were use to with GTA to the HD was pretty cool to experience. Story was very depressing though and I absolutely hated the ending, by far the least satisfied I ever felt playing a Rockstar game. The DLC's were great.

Fallout 3 - Great! This was my first experience with Fallout and I got addicted quick. This is the only Fallout game I've played that I've yet to finish simply because, as typical with Bethesda games, I get distracted by the vast amount of stuff you can do and get lost as far as where I'm at with the story. I stopped playing this at a very pivotal point in the story and unfortuanately never picked it back up as I had this on my 360. I really need to finish it someday!

Saints Row 2 - I've mentioned several times that this is one of my favorite games of all time. The amount of stuff you can DO! and the customization was great from your character to your crib. Such a fun game to play.

Spore - Ehh. I didn't really get into the huge amount of hype on this game which probably made it sucking a bit more neutral to me. I just knew EA was making some weird evolution game and I ARRR'd it to see what it was all about. I thought it was boring and stopped playing.

Mario Kart Wii - Never owned it, but played it a few times at other people's houses.

Gears of War 2 - I had it on PC, I'm pretty sure I Arrr'd it and I have... no idea why. This is literally the only GoW game I've played and I think I stopped playing pretty early in.

Honorable:

Burnout Paradise - The first game I ever got in a humble bundle. Ran like shit on my old Acer computer and I never played it again since I only paid a nickel for it.

Civilization Revolution - Not very good. I was very addicted to the Civ games around the time I got this for 360 and was left very disappointed with this. Played like a mobile game and unsurprisingly, the sequel is a mobile game.

Actually, I got Mirror's Edge in that very same Humble Bundle that I got Burnout in. Never played it though. And I've long lost the codes to them.

Did we never play Left4Dead on steam? Just the second?

Did we never play Left4Dead on steam? Just the second?

Actually yeah probably just the second because the entire first game is like, within the second one. Same stages and characters

Grand Theft Auto IV - Didn't finish, didn't like it as much as the others

Fallout 3 - GOTY?

Left 4 Dead - Fun times with friends when we weren't playing DOTA or FM09, which is probably my most played game that came out that year by far.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Decent, think the second one was better IIRC

Saints Row 2 - Not 100% sure I played it or just 3 and 4

Spore - Last stage was mehh

Mario Kart Wii - Played it witth others

Super Smash Bros: Brawl - muh melee



Mirror's Edge - Own, installed, never played though I want(ed) to

RANKED:

Left4Dead - Great. Always gonna be a fun coop experience, its aged really well. I want a third one. FUCK Valve!

Mari Kart Wii/Super Smash Brawl - Tie??? I can't choose, maybe an edge to Brawl

Dead Space - Another great one. Another one I don't remember a ton about. Fun though

Gears of War 2 - I don't remember anything about this one but I played it


and uhhhh that's it


I own Fallout 3 and played for about 2 minutes and then never again. I also played the Just Cause 2 free demo a bunch but that's it. I dicked around in one of the Saints Rows. Might've been the second one

I very specifically remember talking about SR2 with you because you really liked the septic truck side mission

You cover the city with poo!!

Super Smash Bros. Brawl - played the shit out of this. Multiplayer was great as usual but I actually enjoyed the Subspace Emissary campaign quite a bit too

Braid - didn't fall in love quite as much as some, but a vry solid/inventive puzzle game

Spore - huge disappointment, even wasted my money on the collector's edition on opening day cuz I was so hyped for it (: The only stage I actually sorta enjoyed was the free roam creature stage. The rest was extremely bland
