Dragon age II ps3 brill game you get you moneys worth with this game.
i completed dragon age 1 which was harder and menu's overly complex.
Dragon age II is a massive improvent over the original with much better graphics,gameplay,and a lot easier menu system.
Theres gays in it also so you have been warned.

Is it really better? I played the first until I was completely and utterly bored with it, at about 75% I guess. From what I saw, DA2 is again the same 'choose the good, witty or bad dialog option' kind of RPG with nice graphics. Yawn!

Its not everybodys cup of tea,but i like games which last longer than 20 hours which is the case for most ps3 games.
One of my favourite games of all time is oblivion IV elder scrolls ps3 which is the same type of game and took me 500 hours to fully complete but obviously dragon age can't compete with oblivion.

Well its waiting for Skyrim now. From what I've seen so far, it is going to be a big step up in the franchise in terms of gameplay. But yeah, dragons again.

Road Blaster (arcade version)... this has got to be my favourite 'racer', I like it better than Dragons Lair or any other game of this type I've played.

Going to record a longplay but I still need some more practice

Hur? A comparison between a racer and Dragons Lair?

Ishar MUD: http://www.ishar.com/

Stumbled upon it while looking for Ishar adf files (you know, the RPG). This isn't that, but it's a lot of fun. If you play, I go by the name of Vasha.

Nice P&C but very unforgiving, one wrong decision and game over.

If you call Terraria a ripoff then most of everything in existence today is a ripoff. Even Minecraft is inspired by at least three pre-existing games.

In fact, some ideas of Terraria are going to make their way into Minecraft in one way or another Yay for the indie scene; there is no competition, only a drive to create fun games.

DoDonPachi on Sega Saturn. The only shooter I've played where your craft's rate, spread and impact of fire makes it feel like a virtual blowtorch. Very finely tuned gameplay.

Deffinatly my favourite out of the series. Seem to remember the last level (the bank raid) been a bit of a beasty though.

For me I am just about finished on Portal 2, just deciding what to attack next Fable 3 or Le Noir

I'm not stating that other things in life aren't. Yes, Minecraft's idea was taken by Notch from infiniminer, but its immense popularity paved the way for a whole new genre, for which Minecraft take most of the credits.

Terraria got me back to playing Minecraft as well. There's so much fun to be had with both games with others at the office after work's done

That is certainly true. It paved the way for the simple=better games which I am very thankful for. Now let it breech into other genres as well; bring back the simple but addictive racing games like Supercars 2 and Ironman's Offroad!
