Hurry up and get it ya dick! Singstar's getting boring, we need a new gimmick.

Totally. I've never played a game which (a) is this beautiful and (b) makes you feel like such a goddamn hero.

If you have a chance to get this game I'd advise you to do it right away. I mean, come on, look at the controller.



Sweet diggity!

Also, a word of advice for anyone who can play guitar who thinks this game will be a walkover: Don't try 'Cowboys from Hell' by Pantera on hard on your first go. You will look like a dick.

If you haven't played it yet, I can only say that this is the expression you have plastered across your gob the entire time you're playing it;

Re: What are you playing right now? (merged)

I'm playing a LOT of Morrowind these days, preparation for Oblivion. Today I must have spent an hour browsing through books in a bookstore, reading up on the lore of the games. It's pretty immersive when you give it a chance. I've played through it a couple of times already though, so I'm trying to find sub-plots I havent seen yet.

Re: What are you playing right now? (merged)

Not really....there's a bemani game (ooh, found a link to it - GuitarFreaks - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bemani#..._.26_DrumMania )played with guitars that you can find in American and Japanese arcades, there's also the recently released Guitar Hero (which uses that guitar above as a control scheme)

The bemani version, iirc, has 3 buttons, tremolo bar, "pick", whereas the Guitar Hero version has 5 fret buttons, tremolo bar, "pick", and senses when you point the neck straight up in a power-move. (And I'm eagerly awaiting UPS next week since we just ordered two controllers and the game)

Don't even get me started. Having one-and-a-half jobs means more money and less free time, which means more crap bought and less time to play/listen/watch it. Right now sitting collecting dust in my house:

Neuro-Hunter
Ultimate Spiderman
Stolen
Mercenaries
Total Overdose
and a host of others that I'm even LESS likely to play...

What I am ACTUALLY playing right now is Starfury, its kinda retro and geeky but its awesome fun.

Cheers!
