Playing lots of SWTOR at the moment. I haven't really PVP'd much in MMOs other than space combat in Star Wars Galaxies, but I've been hooked on the PVP in SWTOR. I absolutely hated Huttball at first, but I"ve grown to love it. Something about the combination of Star Wars, football/rugby, and a bunch of fire and acid traps thrown in that made this addicitng.

It's clear you haven't PvP'd much in MMOs - because IMO (which again is only my opinion) the PvP system in SW:TOR fucking sucks. Combat is terrible in comparison to many other less than stellar MMOs and performance issues make it even worse. There is ZERO open world PvP system which makes me scratch my head.

The game is great for non-pvp types. The storylines and quest system as well as other aspects are top notch - but I myself play MMO's to PvP and because of it just cancelled my subscription. Going to find an older game to go back and rehash until GW2 comes out :(

Picked up Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2. I haven't played the series before and with as amazing as ME3 looks, I wanted to catch up. Still only on ME1 and it can be rather infuriating at times. I love the concept and all, but it's a little dated. Graphics are what they are and it lags at times. But my biggest issue is just the lack of direction. I'm having trouble knowing where the fuck to go or what the fuck to do. There isn't really a "mission objective" that guides you to the next point. While I get that that is part of the open world feel, at times it leaves me wondering and wandering. On the other hand, it is cool to explore other planets and jumping off the terrain with that bad ass vehicle. I do wish you could save in combat - would prevent a lot of headaches from going through all the cut scenes and then dying after two minutes realizing you're supremely outmatched.

Yeah it was an amazing (near?) launch title but is a bit dated now.

That is a lot of fun, though the mining gets a bit old. I believe they removed that before the 2nd game.

Raving Rabbids: Alive & Kicking

Bizarre but some of the games are absolutely hysterical to watch someone else attempt, and fun to play yourself. This game really helped energize the kinect for me. Sports & Adventures was fun but more "nice" than a "hoot." This game falls into the latter. Watching someone shake wildly to free themselves from enemies or jump around the living room to avoid lasers and bombs is a great time.

My favorite part was when they show the web cam video feed and then overlay video game elements into your reality. So for a 'whack a mole' variation, there are little rabbids popping up all over your living room floor. Another game has bombs dropping at your feet or a vertical laser slicing around your carpet as you run all around the 3d square of your living room to avoid it (and it follows you).

Prestiged at Level 80 on MW3 and will probably take it back on Friday and trade it in. I have some other ones to trade it with it.

The only mode I enjoy is Ground War. I'll take a good hard look at BF3, but leaning towards Arkham City. Something with a bit more story.

You should trade in at Gamestop. They'll probably give you like 7 cents for that game. 2 bucks for the system.

Yeah - loved it. Great story.
Really wanting something that I can play on Xbox live, preferably in a co-op or vs. mode.

The two clubhouse leaders seem to be Skyrim and/or Dark Souls both of which I've never played. A bit intimidated by the learning curve.
