other gamers here?

I'm generally more into single player, although the Gears multiplayer is on of the few i actually enjoyed. Seemed to have 'better' people. Other games when i was trying to get into online i'd get targeted as a quick easy kill as i had nowhere the amount of time most others had put into the game. With Gears though a couple times i found people that would try and help me get better which was a refreshing change.

I've been replaying the first two lately as a refresher for when i pick up the third. Despite the cheesiness the dialogue can have at times, i almost forgot how much i enjoyed the franchise.

The first game i played on the original Xbox was Halo Combat Evolved which left a life long impression on me.

Gears of War was the first game i played on the 360 and left a similar impression.

The third is such much better. Dedicated hosts for multiplayer makes it more fair, and not just a super host running around shotgunning everybody.

Okay that's it. **** this game Dark Souls. It's the hardest game every made and completely unplayable. I've spent 3 days trying to get to the next checkpoint. I've been playing the same 10 minutes of gameplay over and over, hundreds of times, over the series of at least 8 hours. I cannot beat the first ****ing checkpoint. I've read every strategy guide and watched every youtube video. Do not buy this game, it is tedious and not fun. This could have been such a great game but it's ultra-high difficulty level makes it unplayable.

I've been gaming for 20 years, I am a hardcore RPG fan, and I can't get past the first level. Who the **** is this game made for?

To the developers: **** you.

Trust me, i will never try it.

Everyone should be playing Gears of War 3. Game of the year!

Ok **** dark souls. It so hard it's not even playable. I sent four hours today just trying to get from one checkpoint to the next. In 4 hours I didn't progress at all. It was all spent trying to get 500 feet in front of where I started. Note this is the first level after the tutorial. I died like 100 times and right as I finally made it ten feet they throw a ****ing boss dragon at me, I have no life of course so it kills me with one swing. Speaking of which, almost every enemy kills you with one or two hits. this is the hardest game ever made and I've been a gamer for 20 ****ing years.

Only buy this game if your a complete masochistic and have mucho time on your hands. I don't have a lot of time to game and I can't spend an entire evening just trying to make it one checkpoint ahead, I mean ****ing Christ it makes no sense, it's just too hard. Great game but not playable due to the difficulty. Imagine if your playing diablo and every checkpoint is like playing the final boss of the game, every character is the boss and you start out with no life. That is what this game is like.

So I bought Dark Souls for 360 yesterday. It's predecessor Demon Soul was a big hit and has a strong following so I figure i'd check it out while I wait for Skyrim.

Pretty much it's a dungeon crawler style RPG, 3rd person etc. A 3d diablo if you will, nothing like Oblivion. Anyways, this game is billed as the hardest xbox game of all time (it's predecessor was one of the hardest as well), and I have to say that I agree with the label. I spent 4 hours last night and 2 of those wre just trying to get past the tutorial. The game is so hardcore that you CANNOT EVEN PAUSE THE GAME, literally, there is no way to pause and all item management is done on the screen while battling etc. It's ****ing insane how hard this game is. It's extra rewarding when you beat the epic dragons etc but jesus christ this game is kicking my ass. It's allegedly only for the real seasoned gamers as they explicitly stated they wouldn't put an easy mode or anything so that casual gamer can enjoy, it's all hard mode all the time.

Anyways, you die like 1,000 times in every level and lose all of your progress every time you do, and the only way to get your health back up is to rest at these checkpoints, but if you do that it RESPAWNS EVERY ENEMY, therefore you have to make the choice of whether it's a good idea to heal and respawn all the enemies or to just push on to the next area.

Anyways, would recommend, but only for the very patient, elite gamers who are really into playing Xbox and dungeon crawlers in particular.Hopefully after today I can get at least halfway through the 1st level :/

Okay, I was on XBLA browsing the indie games and noticed this game called "Total Miner". It is an exact clone of Minecraft but with several improvements. Personally I prefer it over minecraft now, the only thng it's missing is minecarts and redstone, but it has new stuff like ropes and other great features.

Anyways, it's $3 and you can play minecraft on your xbox, totally worth it. I think it's better also because it has lots of dungeons and caves and there are objectives to the game etc (finding crafting recipes, seeing how deep you can get etc). I sunk several hours into it already and I would highly recommend this to anyone who liked minecraft.
