And yeah, Borderlands 2 in single player is a bit more interesting than the original.
I love Clap Trap

Also, have any of you newer converts played Tiny Tina's DLC yet? It is the best Borderlands thing ever.
Fixed that for you.

Not yet. I've moved to Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty. I've got all of the major DLCs(Scarlett, Torgue, Hammerlock, and Tiny Tina) along with Digistruct Peak, and I may grab a couple of the headhunter missions for the heads and XP.

All the headhunters are good, grab em when they're on sale (happens often). They're all story packs, so.

I really enjoyed all of them a great deal. I think TK Bahas is the weakest, though.

Took me 3 years to play through the first 7.5 chapters of The Longest Journey (my second playthrough mind you) to get a refresher of the story before Dreamfall Chapters. A released date for that gets announced, and I beat the rest of the game (chapters 9-13) in one evening......done like a true gamer 8)


Now off to Dreamfall, which was much shorter (and much worse :( )

Actually they are on sale right now! I went ahead and picked them all up last night.

Seven years ago I played a PS1 pool game called Back Street Billiards. (It had a really cool RPG-ish story mode where you try to reclaim your late father's stolen legendary property.) The final boss was this jerk named Dean. Playing pool against Dean is like playing pool against a super computer. Dean kicked my ass hard back then and I gave up after two nights of it. Well you guys know it's always cool to go back years later and beat a game you couldn't finish before. So fast forward seven years, and last night I decided it was time for revenge! So I fired up Back Street Billiards and worked my way through the ranks back to Dean. Getting to him was no big deal. But it took hours after that to finally beat him. I finally took him to town with three out of five games of 9-ball. Suck it Dean! Got my dad's infamous cue back and strolled off into the night like a true hustler.

The depth of the PS1 library never ceases to amaze me. This game sounds awesome, and I am additing it to my "want" list.

If you're into pool at all, it is awesome. The story mode is a hybrid of visual novel, RPG, and billiards. There are different paths to take through the story with dialogue choices, you can level up your stats, find hidden items that give you bonuses, and there are secret characters to play against as well. The graphics are nice and the OST is really, really good. The controls are simple and the physics model is the best I've seen in a billiard simulation. It's my most favorite pool game ever. Here's some more screenshots I took:

But yeah man, the PS1 is a treasure trove that just keeps on giving even after all these years.

This sounds so awesome! I am pretty terrible at pool, but I just cannot resist a mash-up like this.
