Woo, girlfriend brought me home COD World at War the other day coz it was cheap.

Oh sorry, is the year 2012 right now?

At least that game has zombies. That alone makes it infinitely better than MW2 and 3.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

I feel bad for the Australians they have to put up with bullshit censorship on their games.

 

[Kaspr]

It has zombies?! I didn't even know. What a pleasant surprise

Yeah the censorship is a load of shit!

 

[D.Ingram]

Australian censorship is bloody hilarious. Even showing blood comes under scrutiny... it's retarded

 

[Kaspr]

Because it may influence/convince children that violence is a good thing, therefore they grow up to be serial killers just because they moved their thumbs around when they were children.

 

[D.Ingram]

So basically, Australia is still living in 1991.

 

[Kaspr]

Essentially, yes.

 

[D.Ingram]

Wow, tough break man...

 

[Kaspr]

Yeah, well video game violence wise anyway

 

[D.Ingram]

I'll bet even games like Spyro are cesnrored, right? "Setting things on fire?! NO WAY WE'LL RAISE A NATION OF ARSONISTS!!"

I started playing the original Metal Gear last night. I have no clue where to go, and it seems like all the doors are locked.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

I beat that game when it first came out lol.

I'll bet even games like Spyro are cesnrored, right? "Setting things on fire?! NO WAY WE'LL RAISE A NATION OF ARSONISTS!!"

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case!

Or Tony Hawk Pro Skater, we might raise a generation of hooligan skaters

Hey man if you need help smuggling some games in let me know.

 

[D.Ingram]

Well I've progressed relatively far through Kingdom Hearts 2 on Proud mode and shit's difficult. But I re(re-re-re)started Symphony of the Night today to try my hand at luck mode - extra enemy drops FTW! Also I cheated that asshole Death to keep all of my starting equipment, but the downside? Reduced stats. Drastically reduced stats - normal starting HP is 70. In lucky mode? Fucking 20.

Got into playing DC Universe Online again. 16 Marks of Triumph in two and a half hours? YES.

Speaking of DC, I started Batman : Arkham Asylum earlier. Game's pretty awesome. Didn't get to play it for too long though.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

Batman Arkham Asylum is an awesome game! I still aim to get the sequel as well! I just wish they would let Batman kill some enemies instead of just knock them out.

Arkham Asylum is a great game. Love the intro with Killer Croc. Playing that game really late at night with the lights off really set a mood of suspense.
