Neur0T0xin here. :D Gotta love Quake! Best multiplayer FPS of all time. Arguments against are null and void.

Unreal Tournament...

Pfft! Quake has always surpassed Unreal, imo. Not saying that UT isn't one hell of a lot of fun, though. Betrayal in UT3 is the tits.

I've never entertained the idea of playing Kingdom Hearts. My dad owns the first two, and I could easily borrow them, but.. my mind vehemently rejects the idea of Goofy and Sephiroth being in the same game.

For a moment I thought you were talking about Team Fortress 2. Luckily, I realized what you meant and put the pitchfork down.

Quake was a massive amount of fun and I have many fond memories of playing LAN co-op with my best friend growing up, but I have to be honest, I've always preferred Quake II, at least in terms of single player. Quake had a fantastically dark storyline and setting, massively gothic which hasn't really been equalled since...but there was just something about Quake II that really appealed to me. I really think it's one of the most underrated games out there.

if you look past the inherent wrongness of the game concept they are very good games

Haha, I know it seems odd, but the games are brilliant. KH2 is 1000x better than the first one in terms of gameplay though...

Assassin's Creed 2 kicks serious amounts of tits, just saying.

Never played the first one, went to look at buying AC2 and was disappointed to find that the PC version doesn't come out until next February :( So I bought the first one instead, guess I may as well give that one a play before the 2nd one.

Well don't let your opinion of AC1 cloud your judgement of what you think AC2 will be like, they are seriously two different games.
AC2 wipes the floor with AC1.

I wouldn't mind knowing either. Almost bought it, but thought I had enough on my plate (and too little in my bank) with MW2 and Left 4 Dead 2.

I didn't like Assassin's Creed.so not going to bother with this one tbh

Chronicles Of Riddick is immense though on PS3
