Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

I stopped playing WoW as of last year, but I plan to happily reattach myself to my lvl 80 Undead Mage to boost myself another 5 levels with the new World of Warcraft Cataclysm expansion. It is really addicting, but some people I knew dropped out by level 20, saying that quests took way too long and didn't peak their interest since it was too much of a hassle. I think it's just the starting point of WoW that makes it harder, but now it's super easy to catch up with the expansions and reach level 60, so things are more easygoing.

Damnit, now I want to play it. lol

you just described the first steps of playing every fps ever

Quoted for Truth. You jump into an FPS late, you're gonna start at the bottom of the barrel like everyone else but they had their practice. Just play and get better. Nuff said.

Team Fortress 2, please.

For whatever reason though when I try to map sprint as enter, it doesn't let me. It's like it doesn't register it as a key :/

I think the game already has an action set to Enter, which means it won't let you map two actions at once. Find the conflicting action that is mapped to Enter and repurpose it. Most games do this.

Wait- what?! TF2 doesn't even have mod tools out. The only things you can mod without going to 3rd party applications like GCFscape are maps. I don't get how you can corrupt a game like that.

So I played some of the beta and so far, it's not as close to my expectations and not as fun as Bad Company 2. Knowing that DICE (Bad Company 2) developed the multiplayer portion of the game, it's already a given that it should be fun. However, the game is sort of an acquired taste. If you want to do well, you pace yourself slower, or else you take a few unexpected bullets and just drop. Oh, that's just bullets. You basically literally have to get hit in the face by a rocket to die. For some reason they are severely underpowered.

Character models are bland, but graphically looks great. What really grinds my gears though is that since DICE didn't have as much time to craft the multiplayer and polish it as much as Battlefield, they just took all of the assets for vehicles from Bad Company and shoved it into Medal of Honor's code. As dirty as that sounds, it's just the same vehicular combat as BC2. It's just too much of the same.

Overall, it's good, not great, but good. It's not as addictive as Battlefield, but it plays like a slower version of that. My advice is to just stick to Bad Company 2, cause it's basically what you've already been playing for months, except in Afghanistan. Yeah.

Although I don't LOVE Halo, I find myself loving the trailers for Halo, the live action ones in particular. We Are ODST was one of the recent ones and that's pretty epic.

Super Smash Bros. Wait a second...

But seriously as of recent it's been 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand. It's just ridiculous arcade-y fun. piew piew piew

Sony sent me. They told me to wave around my free copies of Killzone 2 and Flower (well, Flower I can wave around VIRTUALLY IN THE BLOWING WIND) in front of your face. Free stuff isn't as impressive anymore.

I love how you associate Bioware with graphics, as opposed to drawn out writing or RPG elements.
