kinda amazed arkham asylum finished #1. sure the demo was fun but far from legendary... anyway, great job obviously forks!

sonderangerbot, Thursday, 11 February 2010 15:51 (fourteen years ago) link

If even 60% of the demo's fun quotient carries over through the rest of the game, it will unambiguously be my #1 game of 2009 (even tho I didn't even touch the demo until 2010).

i have the feeling a bunch of people warmed up to borderlands just after they voted in the poll, obv craigG upthread and i think mordy as well?

xpost oh dan you are in for a treat, the rest of the game is way more fun than the demo, it goes in lots of directions that you def will not see coming, plus - SO MANY GADGETS

i am working thru borderlands hells slow because i am doing it coop with a friend and we can't get on as much as we we would like. anyhow, we only recently got past the first area and the game has finally kicked in now. before i was thinking that it was a super average game that i was only playing cos of the coop but now i am loving it and thinking of starting over 1p to quell the frustration of our glacial coop progress.

in all fairness Worms 2 isn't the same game as the worms armageddon from a decade ago

The only major difference is online play, right?

a bunch of new weapons/tech too, and new single-player campaign (also you could play the original worms armageddon online)

chris nibbs (cozen), Thursday, 11 February 2010 21:12 (fourteen years ago) link

intersting

Nhex, Friday, 12 February 2010 09:01 (fourteen years ago) link

So I guess I'll give batman a second chance. I hated that demo so much though, I was REALLY BORED within five minutes. Clearly I missed something. Going to grab it again today and give it another go.

Forks, u hero. I'd like to buy you a pint! Paypal? :-)

JimD, Friday, 12 February 2010 11:07 (fourteen years ago) link

still haven't bought batman ;_;

might go grab it today actually

chris nibbs (cozen), Friday, 12 February 2010 11:10 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh, and my votes were:

Plants vs Zombies - 5pts
Fallout 3: Point Lookout - 5pts
Beatles Rock Band - 5pts
Retro Game Challenge - 5pts
Tekken 6 - 10pts
Bayonetta - 10pts
1 vs 100 - 10pts
Battlefield 1943 - 10pts
Shadow Complex - 10pts
Rittai Picross - 30pts

Should've finessed my scoring a bit really, kinda nuts that I gave tekken 6 the same score as bayonetta.

JimD, Friday, 12 February 2010 11:11 (fourteen years ago) link

(In other news, I fiddled around in some of the deeper menus of Rittai Picross last night, trying to get the text to turn english...and managed to delete my savegame and my 235 completed puzzles, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO). Will wait for the euro one before I restart, I think.

JimD, Friday, 12 February 2010 11:25 (fourteen years ago) link

cozen how did you log 600 hours on SFIV and not then vote for it

MPx4A, Friday, 12 February 2010 11:40 (fourteen years ago) link

Nhex, Friday, 12 February 2010 12:43 (fourteen years ago) link

i played an assload of NHL 10 and didn't vote for it. some games you play because they're a sickness.
