Damn it now I will never look at a hotel room remote the same way again, thanks.

Before you leave each hotel room you should cum on the remote then leave.

....What the fuck man

Hey so I'm pretty far into Dead Space 2. Game is really solid but doesn't impress as much as the original game did. Its really just more of the same so the wow factor isn't as strong here, despite the solid gameplay, slightly improved visuals, and different environments. Graphically, while it does look better than DS1, its not as big of a jump as say Mass Effect 2 was over ME1. Mainly it just has some better lighting effects. Granted, the game was one of the best looking games out there for a long time so I guess you can't complain too much.

Gameplay-wise, its largely the same as before---you still creep through unsettling environments while trying to conserve ammo and upgrade your weapons and suit while trying to not get ambushed by nasties. Every once in awhile, you'll get a radio message from one of the survivors or find a video/text log that moves the story along, which is a bit odd compared to the story of DS1, but it does the job. Of course this time you're on a space station instead of a giant ship, a place where people are supposed to live and go about their lives. So in some ways, the atmosphere of this game can at times resemble a really morbid version of Bioshock as you go through children's elementary schools and apartment areas, though only sporadically. But it does help to make the game feel different from its predecessor.

I'm 8 hours in and on disc 2 (yes its on 2 discs on the 360) but I have no idea how close I am to being done.

You know it to be true.

Nice impressions thanks. I think my next few games will be RDR, Sin and Punishment 2 and OOT.

So here is a bit of juicy gossip about Wii 2. Remember when the rumours said that Nintendo had solved every storage problem developers could think of? A few years back Nintendo was working with holgraphic storage patents and hiring some employees from Microvision.

I will never buy Kinect. Never. If MS forces consumers to buy it with their next console, then I won't buy their next console.

Move is interesting in that it's a complete ripoff of the Wii Remote. Yeah sure, it's "better" in some ways, but a rip is still a rip . . .  with a pink glowing ball on top. Yeah, no thanks.

I'd like Nintendo to make more MotionPlus games. Zelda and Wii Play Motion are NOT enough! Wii Play Motion will likely suck too.

Flingsmash doesn't count?

Red Steel 2 as well.

I guess wasn't clear in my post, I meant new MotionPlus games coming out this year or next.

They should make a sequel to Flingsmash called Flingpoo staring monkeys in a Zoo. That I would buy!

I'm supposed to be somewhere right now, but can't stop watching CNN...
