Game Time..................!!

_as fall closes in and cold weather creates a hermit out of me, video games return to my life. I've noticed that i get way more casual with my gaming during the summer months. Just playing NBA 2k and clapping a few people in Halo. The winter gaming season is like the equivalent to the summer movie season. Big things happen around this time. So i just wanted to share some titles that are on my radar.


NBA 2k9

_My girl bought me 2k8 a min ago and i haven't really started playing heavy it until recently. i want to upgrade to 2k9 but i really don't feel like paying 60 bucks for it since i don't play online and can care less about the new rosters.
Gears of War 2
_nothing more to really say about this one. Except about the Horde mode in multiplayer that is a co-op based game. You win by getting the most points. They put you on a team of five and you have to take on "hordes" of enemies. The enemies spawn in waves which gives everyone a chance to re up on ammo and get they minds right.It gets progressively harder as you play. Reminds me of the old arcade style side scrollers like X-men and Turtles. I'm excited to play it because i never was a fan of the deathmatch on this game because i was trash at it.
Left for Dead
_this game is from Valve, the creators of the Half Life series. The whole game is based on co-op gaming. Its a four player Zombie FPS that forces you to actually depend on the people you are playing with, unlike most online shooters that are out right now. It has a cool multiplayer mode where 4 people are zombies, and the other team is survivors. The Zombie team gets control of dummy zombies to throw at the survivors before they get to them. They move more like Bosses and the other team has to take them out.
Pure
_This game is basically SSX on ATV four wheelers. I have been playing this for the last week and just took it back to Blockbuster today and traded up for Force Unleashed. This game was mad fun to play. I'm a big fan of over the top games when they are done right. If you played SSX this and dug it, you should definitely give it a shot. The world tour mode is not deep at all but you do get the option to build your own ATVs. Its surprisingly deep for an arcade style game.
Dead Space
_Survival horror in space using mining tools to fuck up the undead in zero gravity....dope!
Skate 2
_Anyone that knows me knows i love skateboarding. But i am too old and lazy to step foot on a skateboard. This game lets me live my dream as a pro skater because it feels just like skating. The original came out about a year ago and I'm still playing this game on a regular basis. Best game to play while having a phone convo. Skate 2 has a couple features that are looking nice. The ability to get off your board is very welcome. They also added the ability to move things in the world, like benches and rails. Things you move around the city are permanent, so when you make a crazy gap it doesn't erase when you restart.
