If they released single or packs of games for DLC do you think you would pick them up?
If there was a decent amount of content, sure. I'd love to see some less dated games in there, like Metroid, Kid Icarus, Dr. Mario, Kirby or any of the mario or zelda sequels.


I'd equally love for them to do a Game Boy version on 3DS, but I doubt it'll happen. Nintendo seem less fond of their portable game history than their console game one.

OMG. I am seriously a little choked up right now. Totally speechless. As such I'll have to organize my thoughts later. But the short version, I think Infinite is maybe the best single player FPS game I've ever played. Easily the best story in an FPS. I want to say a lot more, but kind of feel like I need to just think about what to even say for a while. For now, the best thing I can think to say is simply, "bravo."

Planned on writing an elaborate ruse, but instead:

I hate you so much right now.

Don't walk me through the last deck stage (if it even is the last stage) but if you have any stratifies let a guy know.

Yep.

It's... life.

One of the greatest final stretches ever in gaming right there.

if it makes you feel better, I felt that area was by far the hardest part of the game. Strategy-wise, just don't let yourself get overwhelmed. Stay down on the deck and spam murder of crows to keep enough of the soldiers occupied while you're shooting others. Save your big guns for the Washington-bots. And just keep listening to Elizabeth so you can hurry up and get those Zep's down.

In this area the best offense is a good defense, though. The mission ends if they destroy that core. Don't let them destroy that core.

See, I'm always defending the core, and that is all. I let the Raven thingy destroy the Zepps, and ride the coil rail when enemies appear in the distance. I also use the "shoot at one another" magic thingy (I told you I'm off my game) on the heavy ammo'd Wash-Bots.

I usually make it somewhere between ten to fifteen minutes into the level, and it's always the core that explodes.

I don't have any goals for my Games Beaten list, until now. I will beat this sucker before 2014.

Not to make excuses, but if I had this game on the PC I feel like I would have beaten it months ago. But playing FPS on a console makes me feel a bit inept. I'm johnny on the spot when it comes to fps games on a PC, not so much on the 360.

Thanks for the genre clarification.

But I am talking about the sports games on your list.
