While I may not follow the sport I have been enjoying EA's MMA for iPhone today.

Did go back and finish Daggerdale.
The waepon i was missing was an elven short sword. I know i had owned one previously but it must have been during one of the points were we died on a quest and reverted back to previous save.

Aliens Infestation (DS)

It's surprisingly good. People who like Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night should try it.

Right now i completed 85% of the game.

Playing lots of Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. The critics were waaaaay too harsh on this, it's actually quite an enjoyable shooter.

[raffa1985]

Just beat Aliens: Infestation (DS).

Good game, but the final battle and the ending sucked.

Burnout Revenge. I really enjoyed this one on PS2 and Xbox.
I had it confsed with Takedown though. Which i enjoyed even more :-D

[raffa1985]

Started today Uncharted: Golden Abyss.

[hXd]

Finished my second playthrough of Journey. I swear man that ending activates my waterworks like no other media has been able to in years.

Perhaps some Gears tonight? We'll see...

[blcklblskt]

Finished most of my homework, so maybe I'll jump back into FFXIII.

BURNOUT REVENGE
I HAVE MISSED THIS SERIES SO MUCH!

I also remember it was a huge pain in the ass for things like getting golds on all the burning laps later on.
The copy i have is a loaner from s1lence(i think is his tag here still) i might offer to buy it so i can hold onto it and finish it. Then i'll have to hunt down Burnout Paradise

It was a pretty short game and I really wish you didn't have to kill off your marines to recruit more. The thing that surprised me most was how similar it was to my own game.

Yeah, his login here is still s1lence. Paradise is quite different from Revenge, FYI. More Burning Lap-style, less Crash style.

NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Burning Laps were my least favorite part of the series.
No wonder why there are only 2 burnouts on the 360 and a dozen NFS. That was the direction they took the series in :-/

They turned it into a race-centric Single Player experience, where you initiate the different types of races from the intersections. They also added drop-in multiplayer, where you can challenge others to the races. The part you would be more interested in would be the objectives and stunts.

They added Stunt Challenges based on the number of players in your session that are a lot of fun, and you can wreck players online like you do with the Burnout Revenge online. The fun part with that is that you can hook up a Vision camera and it'll take a photo and send it to the person you wrecked, though it gets old with people taking pictures of their ass or other unsavory things.

They've also got objectives you need to smash all over the island. Fun at times, annoying at others. You want a map for that.

Lastly, they turned the Crash events into something you can trigger anywhere for any street. You essentially just blow up right where you're at, and try to tumble your car causing the most damage possible before your momentum stops. I've had very little fun with it, but YMMV.
