Resident Evil 5:  Playing this one off and on, keeping it co-op with my roomate since 1 player alone is a pain in the ass.  So far it's pretty damn good.  I can't compare it to any earlier RE games though since I've never played any of them.  Unfortunately games like Tomb Raider and Fear Effect (ugh) turned me off to the 3rd person shooter genre back in the PSX days.  Not without its faults, but it's pretty fun in the co-op mode.

Fou, duuuuuuuude, RE4 is a must-play. Either Gamecube or PS2 versions were brilliant Game of the Year-class games. Totally reinvented the series and made it a lot more assessable (the older sloppy camera angles, while they added atmosphere, also added too much sloppiness to the controls) too...

Dead Space controls are so much better! I am a serious RE fanboy but I didn't like 5. They kept the same control system the stop and aim thing... While in Dead Space is an way improved RE4 control system. I don't consider RE5 a bad game.... But the gameplay could been done better.  In DeadSpace you can walk and shoot at same time.

I played RE5 it was fun, but I'm pretty much refusing to play them anymore until I can move and shoot.

Now that my NES is finally working, I'm going back and forth between Duck Hunt and Hogan's Alley. Basically, I need to shoot stuff right now, so...

I tried playing a game where you blow shit up with Asafigow yesterday, and the only game  I really have that lets you do that is Star Wars Battlefront II....
I couldn't find it when he was there, but it seems my brother broke it!
Wonderful.
I fucking hate that jackass.

That is a part of their charm.

If they are going to add another player ruining the whole survival horror aspect they might as well not make me move like I'm a tank. You don't need to save your ammo and such because enemies drop extra ammo. You can buy as much first aid spray as you want. Now it's just a bad arcadey zombie game. Also if Chris can punch someone and knock them a mile it's not too much of a stretch that he can move and shoot. Or at least move and knife. Also versus mode is hilarious watching people run up to each other stop and take turns shooting each other. The fact that they needed to add a.i. opponents show that they pretty much admit defeat.

Just got Dynasty Warriors Gundam yesterday. *dodges bricks*

Just about everything they could improve, they have improved immensely, and a much more comprehensive Official Mode featuring more key characters. There are only four characters for Official, but they can't all be winners. The real meat is in the Mission Mode (which pretty much replaces Original Mode from the last game).

It feels nice pwning Big Zam or Devil Gundam with Puru, and that's all I will say.

If I don't come back here for a while, this is why. :P

Versus mode is supposed to be you vs another player. Not killing a.i. until you happen to cross another player to fight.

In a lot of games yes, but not in all. In fact back in the ol' days you never even fought each other you just took turns and the compared your scores.

More games need to have a score...

Nonononono, I mean the little number in the corner that goes up the better you do. Not just headshots, kneeshots, frags, accomplished goals. It shouldn't be limited to Arcade games or shooters either, ever game could implement it.
