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

you could always try gran turismo 5: prologue... It will give you a feel for things but it has little to no upgrade ability on vehicles, only a select number of tracks, cars ect. You can probably find it pretty cheap, or give it a rent.

Playing NHL 10. If you are a hockey fan this is a must play, fantastic game!

Playing The Uncharted 2: Among Thieves multiplayer beta/demo on PS3. So far it seems really cool. I'd suggest starting out with one of the CO-OP options to get the feel for things. It has a huge amount of unlockables (similar to perks on call of duty). I think I'll call this one a purchase for sure.

Beatles Rockband on PS3. Wow, does it ever sound awesome on the Axioms! It's the Rockband we all know, but kind of smoother and 'trippier'

I just wanted to say I like the new version of Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook better than the old version. It's possible to get way higher scores now thanks to a few changes. First, you don't have to wait for your move to complete before you start another one. It was aggravating how slow the old version could be. Plus, now if you keep your pace up for a while, it will let a small series of your moves be explosions, which helps get the multiplier up. And finally, now the gems you create aren't completely wasted if you don't use them in the time limit. It explodes them at the end to give you a little bit more. Of course, now this means there will be that much more distance between the REALLY good players and myself. I always figured that the only reason I placed so highly on the Xbox Live leaderboards for Bejeweled 2 Deluxe was because of the controller. It's so much clunkier than using a mouse and handicaps the players who think faster than the controller allows.

Bought my now 6yr old, Wii Sports Resort for his birthday yesterday, it has some fun pick up and play style games, both my boys like the 'sword' fight game. The bowling is fun with a full game using the 100 pin set.

100 pins? You must use an earthball.

I will be playing Uncharted 2 on the PS3 As long as possible tonight... It came out today.

I beat Batman: Arkham Asylum last night. If your a Batman fan, you need to check it out.

It's the best Batman game of all time, and one of the best games of the year.

I played the batman demo and was pretty impressed. will have to give the game a try sometime. However, I am hooked on uncharted 2, and my friend just loaned me ninja gaiden sigma on PS3 so I need to play that as well. In a couple of weeks I will be grabbing forza motorsport 3 on the 360, and then COD modern warfare 2 on 360 in November.

Too many games and not enough time!
