^ Ok, Apple/Mac is not exactly a good choice if you want to play state of the art computer games ...

You poor thing. *Pats Mike on the head*

Anyway, I happened to get a copy of Resident Evil 5 when it came out last Friday and I've been playing that a fair amount. I was slightly disappointed that I managed to beat it in only 3 days, but it has so much replay value and there's so many things I have to unlock that I can't complain too much. I do think Resident Evil 4 was a bit better for now (but it's hard to make a game even as good as that one), but time will tell. I like the fact that the weapon selection is much more varied and the addition of at least twice as many different guns as Resident Evil 4, as well as the new ranking system that grades you after you finish a section of a chapter. Your grade earns you so many points which you can use to purchase unlockable material.

And as for the racism issue, I don't really think that's really a big deal. I mean, you are in Africa, so it makes sense that a lot of the enemies would be of darker skin.

Also, my current signature has a quote from the game that made me laugh hysterically and was worth purchasing the game alone.

Playing through RE5 co-op.


For anyone else playing through it:

I don't suppose any plays battlefield 1942 online? Or even the forgotten hope mod? I would love to play with a fellow progger.

I can't stop playing GTA Chinatown Wars.What a great game!

I'm replaying an old favourite: Beyond Good and Evil on the ps2. What a sweet game.

sounds like you need to do some grinding
then more grinding
then more grinding
(grinding= killing things for more experience, if you didn't know [not to sound condescending or anything])
usually unless you're severely under levelled the item drops from the enemies combined with items you should have left over should hold you over for at least a few levels worth

Mass Effect is a phenomenal game. It has one of the most involving and engaging stories in any game I've ever played. I've played it at least 5 times start to finish and I'm still amazed at the depth of the dialogue possibilities. You should play that as soon as you get your 360 back.

No more gaming consoles?
