I finally had some free time last week so I was able to finish ME2. Completed it at level 26 so I need to find some more side tasks to try and get to level 30. I've completed every task I've encountered but I'm not 100% yet on exploring planets. I'm assuming I can reach level 30 without having to pay for DLC.

I did the buy 2 get 1 free last week for my kids games for Christmas and was able to snag a copy of Fallout Vegas for myself. So now I need to jump back into Fallout 3 and play through that before I start on the next version.

This is basically an expansion/mod/combination of all the mario games made.

I've only had a little spare time to play it (and now have to return it for COD B Ops), but NBA 2K11 has been outstanding.

I generally don't like simulation basketball games (because I'm terrible at them), but it was a ton of fun playing as Jordan in the various famous moments of his career, against Magic/Worthy, McHale/Bird, etc.

I tinkered around in the editing mode (planning to make Jared Sullinger to complete a buckeye squad). The volume of animations, styles and skillsets is truly stunning. Most detailed sports game by a lot. I will definitely be picking this up again down the road.

A pretty great set of deals here, especially for mass effect 2.

EAstore.com has Madden NFL 11 for Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 for $29.95 - 30% off code EAPARTNERS2010 = $20.96 with free shipping. Next best price on Google Products from a reputable store is $50 shipped. Thanks zamboni & DangerBoy

The 30% off coupon code EAPARTNERS2010 may be used for other select games as well. Thanks ardentano [Discuss]
Note: If purchasing multiple games, you will need to re-enter the code each time you add a game to cart

A few games to consider (see forum thread for ideas)

Steam was selling it for pc for 6 bucks, not sure if that deal expired.

I still pop it in occasionally because of the variety and balance of the game. The various weapons and tools are very balanced and all have good counter elements.

In cod, the airstrikes are ways too dominant. In cod, the only airstrike is a mortar strike, and it is not that powerful, plus it is only available as a sniper. The tanks are great but can be slain with rockets, uavs, mounted guns, c4, etc. bored with that? Grab a uav, hop on a 4x4, etc.

medal of honor is my favorite shooter, but it does not have enough variety in gameplay or vehicles.

Buy it new, because otherwise your VIP code will already be used and you won't be able to download some content. These guys summed up BC2 vs black ops pretty well
Blops is a Twitch Shooter...BFBC2 is a team based shooter

[Twitch: you run around small little places and hope you are faster on the trigger.]
[Team: You can not win on your own, you stick in packs and use coordination to win.]

If you are the type that never uses a mic and just like to camp or go Commando...then you will HATE BFBC2

Depends on what you like. Activision (call of duty) games feature smaller maps and a more boxed in game style. Battlefield Bad Company 2 features much larger maps and tons of vehicles and choppers to cruise around in. Personally, the battlefield series is my favorite, and the new vietnam expansion that just came out for BC2 is fantastic. I have never played the single player story mode, so i cannot comment on that part of the game.

BO - There's more run and gun, faster pace, overpowered weapons/explosives/killstreak awards, one man teams, and a lot more game type options...which I still like.

BC2 - Takes true aiming skills for long distance shooting while roaming around large environments, real team work to win games, a few vehicles, mostly open field levels, differ classes. You have to work for your 15 kills while BO you can do it blindfolded. The scoreboard points are not determined by mostly kills but objectives and helping your teammates via your classes. I love them both. 2 different beasts though. It's like choosing between your wife and your girlfriend.

warning: if you're new to BFBC, it may take time to get good. it's a little overwelming. BO you can good or decent after a few nights.

Also, I'm not sure if others had this experience, but I downloaded the $15 BC2 Vietnam map pack for free somehow. It just downloaded like a game patch.

Is it just maps that you play with the modern soldiers? Or is it the complete vietnam game/expansion?
