Bad Company 2: Meh... I suppose so. Shitty movement kinda ruined it for me.

Assassin's Creed 2: Pretty much yes

Modern Warfare 2: I would be a hypocrite to say no. I have spent more hours in that game than any other game.

Then again, I never have the money to buy games. Bad Company 2 was the last one I ought, and that was about 10 months ago.

Halo:Reach - loving it. if only i was good at matchmaking :(
Youtube videos my friend. Look up gameplay tactics, preferably on Machinima Respawn.

Pace your DMR shots (wait for reticle bloom to go away). 4 in the body, one shields go away one in the head.

Play like a douche. Whore the power weapons. Makes life so much better.

Halo Reach - i liked this story line definatly i got the book with it too and i read through it and the story is quite deep on how they made the spartains that got me interested (i know it has nothing to do with the game anyways on to the gameplay), i liked it and forge world blew me away that was brilliant and fun to play with friends with same with campiagn and matchmaking.

Fallout: New Vegas - much better than fallout 3 this much more cheery than fallout3, fallout 3 was just had a depressing feel, in new vegas it has abit of humour in it, gameplay like fallout 3 so ya abit simple to remember i liked hardcore mode that was interesting it reminded me abit like sims with all the eating and drinking and sleeping but it was a fun aspect on what it would really be like out there, the storyline and quests were fun to

Fable 3 - amazing they have improved so much from fable 2, fable 2 was horrible, this im impressed with combining 2 spells at once thats fun vortex and ice storm ftw and i liked some of the moves you can do on there now there jsut brilliant and how the hero weapon changes is good too ^^

so ya all in all i dont regret buying any off them (sorry for the little review) xP

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory: It's extremely freaking hard: Why do I love it so much!?

If I'm not mistaken, they were:

Game Dev Story (iPhone). It's cute. It's casual. It might as well be crack cocaine cut with heroine. I played this game for an entire day when I had plenty of other things to do (or play for that matter). All because I kept saying "Just one more turn" (in this case, a turn was the production of a single game). I hate the five dollars I spent on this game because I cannot ever open the app without devoting hours of my life to it. That's either a ringing endorsement or the nicest condemnation ever created.

Fallout New Vegas (PC). I spent 60 hours in the game and did the bulk of what there was to do. I had fewer problems with bugs than others (or, rather, I was more diligent in my search for solutions to bugs than others) and I found that the game was an improvement in general over Fallout 3. The world was better realized, the characters and places were more interesting and I, as a player, felt like I had more options when solving any particular problem. It was worth my 50 bucks.

Darkstar One (360). It isn't the best space game I've played (by a long shot), but it is the best space game I've played on the 360. It was worth my 40 bucks but I wouldn't recommend it unless you're really itching to play a game that's kind of like freespace, and even then just because that itch isn't going to be easily satisfied with anything new(ish).

Red Faction: Guerilla. Paid £3.75, got a whole lot of sledgehammery fun out of it. Definitely worth it.
Minecraft: Gotten so much time out of this already. Well worth the £9 I paid for it. I'm making an underwater biodome!
Men of War ( +Xpack): Not bad. Only played about four hours so far, but it's a fun and fucking hard game. Just been busy playing other things.

Castlevania - Lords of Shadow: No, total waste of money. Didn't even bother finishing it before returning it for store credit which I used to buy...

Vanquish - Whoohoo! Abso-defini-total-lutely worth it.

Deadly Premonition - Don't know. Bought it this afternoon and haven't had time to play it yet.

oldest to newest:
VVVVVV-really addictive. the most fun platformer ive played in years
bejeweled 2- wanted to see what the fuss was about, was for free. NOW I CAN'T STOP. adictiveness aside, i don't actually like it at all
New Vegas- for my 50US, i have gotten a staggering 0 hours of play time, because it doesn't work. instead iv'e been trying to actually finish my copy of fallout three, but for some reason when i play it my xbox will randomly crash sometimes. i don't know about the game but obsidian and bethesda can collectively fuck off.

God of War 3 - Definitely.
God of War Collection - Considering I got it along with GoW3 for $40, yeah.
Dead Rising 2 - Fun enough to justify the price, despite its faults.

Force Unleashed II - An awesome game, with extremely fluid combat. Anyone remember yahtzee's God of War review? Remember the "fuck you" button. Force Unleashed II has one. And it is epic.
ZEN Pinball w/ add on tables - My virtual crack. And it was free. (Hey, I don't have minecraft yet, and I like pinball)
Burn Zombie Burn - decent, but a poor analog controller. I got it free though, so I ain't complaining
If that doesn't count:
Syphon Filter 3 - Really fun. Especially the Split Screen MP, corpse versus bag lady/ninja/robot. Hilarious.

Halo reach, So I don't agree with the weapon bloom, big whoop Awesome game no matter who's fanboy flag you fly.
Stalker bundle ( shadows and call of Pripyat) 10 bucks and I haven't been able to put it down. I haven't even gotten to play the new one yet since Ive been so engrossed in the first one.
Dead rising two. Not Horrible per se just felt so samey. I wrecked the first game, 1000 gs, going into the second I didn't feel as challenged. It felt like the pacing was out of wack. The first one felt frantic to try and save people and complete the missions. This one gave you so much time that it seemed like there was no reason to just leave people out there.

Question: do you eventually get the ability to roll? I remember that being a huge sore spot for me when I was playing the demo.

Like a cartwheel? No. You retain the sprint though, along with force repulse.
But the aforementioned button makes up for many flaws.
Oh hello stormtrooper. *bleep. oh, you've been electrocuted, stabbed, and are flying off the cliff twenty feet away? To bad.
