Topher:The Maw,Shikigami no Shiro II, theF.E.A.R. 2demo, and uh … was that it? Shit, I guess that was it.
DMV:Haunting Groundhas gotten somewhat tedious, but now that I’ve completed the first chapter, I’m sure it’ll pick up from here — I hope. Other than that, been playingSkate 2for review, and I must admit, it’s rather buttery. I’d like to finish a large stack of the games sitting here, but that’s not happening yet…
Colette:I’ve played absolutely nothing this week except for a few rounds of theGalactrixPC demo. I can’t wait to plow sixty hours or more of my life into that game! CRACK ADDICTION GET!
Dale: Still rockingTrackMania DS, and still screaming at my DS because of it. I’m also enjoying late-night games ofMahjongTales: Ancient Wisdom, and believe it or not,Iron Chef Americafor the Wii. BOAR! SWEET POTATO!
Jonathan H:I finally got four stars on the ski jump and the slalom games inWii Fit, but I still can’t hula hoop for shit. My right hula is god damn near perfect, while my left hula is complete garbage. I have no idea why, but what matters is just trying figure this riddle out helped me lose a few pounds over the past two weeks.
Also played a few matches of SSF2TRemix with McVenegence on the PS3. It was good times. Besides that, it wasBonk 3,Tatsunoko Vs Capcom,Smash Bros Brawl, and the usualAnimal Crossingroutine.
Chad:Sadly, I have not played much at all this week except for the polarizingBanjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Boltsand the incredible hidden gemM.U.S.H.A.for the Genesis. At times I loveNuts & Boltsand at times I want to throw the disc into the mouth of a hungry alligator. Anyone that has got to the stunt bike challenge in Banjo Land knows what I am talking about. WORST VEHICLE CONTROLS EVER!
Jonathan H:Crap! That’s right, I forgot aboutM.U.S.H.A.!
Buying it now.
Grim:Chad, the secret is to jump out of the vehicle and press B to edit it. Essentially, you can get rid of everything except for the seat, jet, gyroscope, and fuel which will allow you to pretty much just fly through the checkpoints easily; the key toNuts & Boltsis to watch other people’s replays. I managed to find all of the Jiggies earlier this week, but I have also been playing some moreLeft 4 Deadfor FNF and started upThe Mawthe other day.
Hamza:Puzzle Quest: Galactrix.
Jim:Most of my gaming has been for review purposes, and that means XNA chicanery.Groov,Galax-e-mailandWeapon of Choicehave been my main source of gaming, with a little of the PSN’sMagic Ballon the side. As far as retail games go, I’m still fighting thoughUncharted: Drake’s Fortune. Some of its combat areas are just horrible, but I’m still finding it fun enough. Also dabbled inLittleBigPlanetagain, although I don’t find I can sit and play for a long time. I can’t believe my shitty LBP level actually has four stars though.
Oh, andLeft 4 Dead. Mountains of it.
Conrad:I finally got around to finishingGrand Theft Auto IV, as I wanted to get Niko’s story wrapped up before the DLC hits. I really have to give credit to the guys at Rockstar for creating characters that resonated with me. Towards the end of the game, I found myself asking what certain people in Liberty City would think of the choices I was making, only to have Niko automatically call them as a scripted story event moments later. They got to me but good. Now, if only they had made the game more fun.
Also played a lot ofNinja Gaidenand I pulled out the Commodore 64 and spent some quality time that old friend. Oh, andThe Maw, which isawesome.
Jonathan R:Once again, a bunch ofL4DandTF2. Threw someAquariainto the mix, and got in a bit ofPeggle Nightstoo. I also spent a big chunk of time with thePuzzle Questdemo – I am so excited for that game to come out.
Fronz:I’m still playingDotacasually and loving it.
Samit:I’ve been making my way through my first playoffs inNHL 09— last night, I eliminated the Atlanta Thrashers in the semifinals, four games to one, and now I’ll be taking on the Philadelphia Flyers in the Eastern Conference Finals. Bring it on, Gagne! I’ve been kicking ass, too — Samit Sarkar leads all players with 24 points in the playoffs so far (21 goals, 3 assists)!
Dyson:I have my hands onTatsunoko vs Capcomand I intend to play it! Other than that all I played all week was someStreet Fighter IIon the only SF arcade unit within ten miles. It’s a piece of shit, but it’s the only game in town. I played against Seth K., and he used the right stick which doesn’t function if you press –> so half the time he can’t block. Mutherfucker still kicks my ass.
Jonathan H:Damn, for the first time ever, I’m annoyed thatTvCdoesn’t have online play.
