What Are You Playing? November 10th, 2012

Posted on Saturday, November 10 @ 10:30:00 Eastern by

I'll continue my trials in the TV World in Persona 4: Golden all weekend, but today is GameRevolution's community playdate in what's surely the Xbox 360's biggest release this year.

If you've got Halo 4, an Xbox 360, an Xbox Live Gold subscription, all the video and power cables you need to hook the console, an ethernet cable to connect your 360 to the router, a TV, and a controller, then you don't have an excuse! Click here and drop your username in the comments. The playdate starts at Noon PST and we're set up for the biggest community event yet!

    Borderlands 2 (finally)!!! I wish more games had the quality of humor, voice acting, characters, music, and art style that this game has. Definitely shooter of the year for me.

    Well, the game apparently requires a motion+ controller which I evidently don't have cuz it just sits on the screen telling me to connect it. I wasn't too happy with that.

    I'm still wondering the frontier with Connor, with occasional breaks to stomp people in my giant robot. I've got Black Ops 2 paid for for next week. My work schedule won't allow me to go to a midnight release, so there will probably be a bunch of people already with one or two Prestiges before I even get a chance to play it.

    Modern Warfare 3, Assassin's Creed III, Assassin's Creed III Liberation, Dishonored, and of course Resident Evil 6.

    Gonna have to get some time to get through the whole God of War Saga as well, and finish Metal Gear Solid so I can start the HD collection.

    We never stopped having LAN parties hehe. Vanquish is great, I think the slow-mo trigger in Bayonetta was a bit better. Right when I'm about to kick ass the ARS suit kicks in because I took too much damage.

    God of Blades on iOS, and Resident Evil: Revelations on 3DS XL, i like RE:R, it masks really well the limitations of the console, and manages to utilize the 3DS resources very efficiently, and because of that it has great graphics and sound, and it's kind of scary too.

    Also waiting for Black Ops 2 to be released and for it to reach my country, i'm guessing by the end of this month I will be able to purchase it.
