Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler What video games are you playing tonight?

how did you get in on the little big planet beta?

I think he has the right job.

I've been sith-ing it up in The Force Unleashed. It hasn't gotten the best scores, but there's something special about slamming storm troopers in all directions that brings a smile to my face

Ahh, that's right, I did download that Demo on the PS3... it looks like a lot of found. And 7.1 surround from a video game isn't bad either!

USATODAY.COM had about 15000 keys last week. I was able to snag one.

PS3. I don't expect that I'll ever really make levels myself, but I will definitely play ones that others make. There's been a bunch of VERY impressive ones, even ones by artists that don't play video games.

I was especially impressed by the guy who made a simple calculator using the "parts" from the LBP environment. I was stumped on how he did it until I realized he used some type of old school ladder logic. Very analog and VERY VERY cool.

Playing Fable II right now. I rented it after the let down of Fable I.. but this game is really cool so far (only about 45 minutes in so far).

I pre-ordered gears of war 2 and call of duty 5 on xbox 360 today, as well as littleBIGplanet for PS3.

I think Iwant fallout 3 also, but I can't decide if I want it on PS3 or 360... hmmmm.

I'm caught between 360 and PC for Fallout 3. I'm sure the PC version will look nicer and will allow mods, but then I lose the fun of playing it on my home theater.

But I canceled all of my game preorders. I was going to get Fable II, Gears of War 2, LittleBigPlanet, and Fallout 3, but then the EP800 was announced, and I had to start cutting away at my other spending. So see, even if you don't get your EP800 right away, at least you get to enjoy all of these games I want while I gnash my teeth and wail through my layaway nightmare.

It will be SO worth it Charles. Stand strong!

Yeah, I can buy "inexpensive" items, just no big ticket purchases. I dont think I have any type of limit on the amount of "inexpensive" items though...

Hmmmm.. I wonder how many small discrete charges axiom could bill the ep800 to me for. I guess it there is no way to hide it when it would arrive so I guess that plan wouldn't work...
