Except for all the random thunderstorms we have had lately


So much for summer... but I tell you walking home with dark skys and lots of rain while it feels warm is something different to experience.. Like a hot shower with all your clothes on in the middle of the street ? :P


Anyways.. the topic.. yeah I have the same answer as SOTGs first post above..

GTA4 is fun.. but you're better off getting Saints Row 3, to be fairly honest.

This year hasn't been too great IMO. I'm guessing Crysis 2, since that's pretty decent.

A load of 3DS ones so that I have more than four 3DS games (excluding Ambassador games, and other free stuff). And Saints Row 3.

Well I'm getting a PS3 for Christmas. So therefore I'm getting all the Uncharted series. They are insane.


I would like HL3 as well, but you can't have everything :P

Portal 2 was kinda repetitive, but was still pretty good.
BF3 had Origin tied to it so I'm avoiding it like the plague.

Last I checked Saints Row wasn't an RPG.
Title: Re: What games are you getting for Christmas?
Post by: Chaosmancer on December 21, 2011, 08:32:51 AM
Saints Row 3 is like GTA with less seriousness. Especially when you consider the fact that one of the weapons is called the Penetrator. And I think that may be cutting it a little fine for off topic, but yeah.
Title: Re: What games are you getting for Christmas?
Post by: Jonzu95 on December 21, 2011, 08:37:02 AM
Okay, I watched video about Saints Row 3 first time. And it looks amazing. I just thought It's a RPG game ^^'
Title: Re: What games are you getting for Christmas?

Well technically, nearly all video games are RPGs, as you do play a different role in them. I'm just sayin'.

Can't argue with that.
I don't think I'm really getting a game for Christmas though. On second thought.. Christmas sales on Steam are busy =D

I dont really know, Ill propably stalk the Steam sales if something intresting pops up.

On the note of Steam sales a comic by Nerf NOW! describes Steam sales in their entirety.

This can't work for me because:
1.I'm getting a PSP.
2.I perfer it over the 3DS.
3.I'm getting Gran Turismo PSP.
4.I would not get it anyway.
5.What a stereotype!

If you know what you're getting for Christmas, you're doing it wrong.
 
I put LoZ Skyward Sword and Cave Story 3D on my list but not sure if I'm getting either.  Since what I REALLY want is money toward a DSLR camera + 100mm macro lens.

Funny you say that, ever since I was 13 (and my sibs were even younger), my family gave up on the whole "element of surprise" presents thing, and would instead just give us the money and let us buy whatever we wanted from Amazon (they used to have Zoids).  They'd get us a few small trinkets on top of it that, but we'd usually end up keeping the the money.


I asked my brother if he wanted any games but he couldn't think of any; he wouldn't even try Phoenix Wright, so I guess there really is no accounting for taste.


I bought myself The Orange Box and Portal 2 as a little holiday treat; they were on sale, and m passed all my classes this semester, I figured I'd earned them.

TESV: Skyrim (PC)
Mariokart 7 (3DS)
'Charted 3 (PS3)

An awesome horde considering I only asked for Skyrim, he's already bought me an expensive compy and all of these came from my Dad; most of my Mum's side of the family disowned me 2 years ago. All the better for it IMO.

I didn't know about the other 2 at all. :D

@Doom: Already have Splinter Cell. Cool at first, but little replay value and the 3D does nothing to improve the gameplay.
