Visit my $3.50 rental thread! I'm on spring break until March 15, no access to many games!
Army of Two: 7.5
SSBB: 8.0
Hot Shots Golf Out of Bounds: 8.5
I've only put about 5-10 hours into each game so far, but I think the only score that has a chance of changing is Army of Two as I haven't played with anyone yet. I read that your teammate's AI is a total moron, but he's been pretty serviceable so far.

I rented Army of Two and played it for a little bit, and the teammate AI hasn't been too bad.
Condemned: Criminal Origins - 8/10 - Fun, atmospheric shooter that I've totally ignored for two years. I like it. The investigations are neat too.
Sins of a Solar Empire - 9/10 - Amazing real-time 4X game. I'm just scratching the surface, but it's a blast, and much easier to manage than I would have thought.
COD2 - Pretty good but maybe I shouldn't be playing on Vet. on my first playthrough, I figured I'd double up on ptz....I'd have to redo parts that take less than a minute over and over for 15 tries etc.
The Club - Pretty fun game but kind of hard, you have to focus onshooting in the head an ddoing extra showboat stuff to get big scores...if you can beat the game on insane you are good

Revelations: The Demon Slayer (Game Boy) - 6/10 - I've been grinding for hours now, which is the point of the game I guess. Meh story, meh everything honestly. I guess i'm around 25% through.

Yeah, it was a nice surprise. I had fun with the game, but I just ended up shipping it off for DMC4. I think my brother will be getting Army of Two over the summer, and I'll just get it then and play online with him.
Zak & Wiki: 9/10 In some ways, this is the best Wii game I have ever played. Overall, it's definitely in the top 5. A must for Wii owners - I think this is what Nintendo had in mind when they designed the Wii (and it's a 3rd party game!).
Harvey Birdman (Wii): 6/10. It has a lot of the wit and charm of the show, but at a price: solving cases is more about entertainment and some laughs as opposed to logic and problem-solving. For example:
Two of the options you have to prove that a lighter is not Peter Potomas' are "those aren't his initials on the lighter" or "he can't operate the lighter without any thumbs." If you choose the latter, Peter defiantly starts the lighter by...farting; choosing the other option has Harvey show the jury that if you look at the initials at the correct angle under the right amount of sunlight, the "P.P" on the lighter is actually a "gg".

I guess I'm into more traditional circuit racing. I didn't really enjoy the whole off road racing/car degrading thing. Plus the music was annoying. The only reason I bought it was because it was a pack-in game so I thought it would be good.
Anyways I took it back and traded it towards a new CoD4.
Mass Effect - 9.5/10 - Finally finished it (got sidetracked while moving), but it's a fantastic game. I didn't do many of the side missions because I didn't want to get bored before finishing, but the main story was good enough on it's own. I loved everything about the game, plus Ashley Williams didn't stand a chance against my rogue-ish charms and boyish good looks (oh yeah). The only things that bothered me to any degree were the slowdown when a lot of stuff was happening, and the horrible texture pop-in. But yeah, the sequel is eagerly anticipated.

Spider-Man: Friend or Foe - 7.5/10 - Beat this tonight and while it's probably the easiest game I've played outside of kids games in a long time, I still had a blast. It's basically an easier version of God of War perhaps with a touch of Marvel Ultimate Alliance, except with Spider-Man (and note, GoW was easy already) and 14 'friends' you get partnered up with. You could go through the entire game with 1 move if you choose, but luckily it's short enough that right at the point where you stop caring about achievements and want it to end, it does. Not spectacular graphics by any means, but solid enough and the art style works well with Spider-Man. But probably the best thing about this game: the computer voice acting. Easily the funniest bot/computer next to the one in Portal. Worth a rental if you like comic books or simple beat em ups.
I played whatever mode it set it on. I'd never set a game higher than that unless I'm really wanting to trade it away asap. And there's not anyway GoW could be any harder, maybe the enemies could cheese the crap out of you more, but otherwise it's just a hack and slash, no hard puzzles or the like to confuse you.
GoW on God Mode is a fun experience, you have to parry more, and you basically die after 3 regular zombie soldier hits, i beat it a while back on God Mode. Speaking of which im hoping to wrap up the rest of Halo on Legenday today
I've always hated games that you do crap and then if you die, it's like you never did that original crap so I'll never bother trying it, but I believe you. Still, that doesn't make it "harder" per se, just cheesier.
Your attacks do the same amount of damage really, your just more vulnerable and have to play smart, like Halo really, Normal was a fudgein cakewalk, and after playing Legendary i cant see myself ever playing it over again on anything less than Hard
But i do remember that you said on some thread your not exactly the best game player when it comes to difficulty so i understand

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
That's just wrong.
I challenge you to a duel in CoD4.
And it's not that I'm bad at God of War, I ran through the first easily, I just don't like having to do things over again, no matter how hard or easy they are. If I have to do crap twice or go through caves/dungeons/etc twice, I simply don't play them. To me, that's lazy developing and frustrating as fudge.
haha, then whats for asking on what games are not too easy but not too hard so you can play them??? Thats where i got that from, im not saying you suck at GoW either just said it was wayyy to easy on the normal and easy modes, nowadays Hard is the new Normal
And i would take you up on that COD4 duel, if only i had a 360...it sucks being broke...
Well, games are easier then they used to be, but that's mainly because unlike the yesteryears, they now don't simply give you 3 lives to beat a game with. If God of War was made how they used to make NES games, you'd get hit three times and lose, it's just an evolution in gaming. And I don't suck per se, I'm just have more knowledge and love for video games than I do skill. Average I guess would be the correct term for it. If only I could somehow enhance my reflexes
