Oh my God, it might be because I've been playing Battlefield a lot, but the multiplayer on MW3 is just awful. I generally dislike everything I've experienced so far. It's just an orgy of stupid Killstreaks and high level players that have all these amazing weapons.

I know I sound like a fanboy but I've always liked the online on Cod games, I really enjoyed MW2's, this is just retarded. It really just feels like a bunch of idiots running around and shooting each other. You die, you're alive straight away, you die again, there seems to be no point in it whatsoever.

Anyway, enough of a rant before I start a flame war, I just feel quite strongly about this, and I'm not saying this is how it is it's just my opinion, I understand why people might like it but I'd much rather stick with Battlefield.

Anyway, I should probably get back to the campaign.

But you unlock one of the best guns at level 6.

Some fuckin' freezing rain cancelled my mail so I still don't have Alpha Protocol or Dead Space. Ordered those a week ago... I guess I'll be playing Gears 3 then.

+20G for getting to 12 waves on each Fenix Rising map in Beast.

Finished the MW3 Campaign and by God I loved it. They never disappoint me, it was all quite sad though.

Anyway, now I'm starting my Veteran playthrough, though I doubt I'll get too far, just doing a couple of them until I need to go to work. I don't like saying that, it makes me feel like I can be lazy less :(

Slowly getting some GS through Street Fighter 4 and is damn hard. I seriously need a fight stick or fight pad cause im getting sick of playing Street Fighter on a normal Xbox controller.

I couldn't stop laughing when Soap died, it all felt a bit forced, even more so than Dom in Gears 3, which I found to be considerably sadder since Dom wasn't 2-Dimensional like all modern FPS characters.

Playing Mad World during it was fucking lame though.

When Soap died it wasn't exactly sad, I mean, he was just some guy with a dodgy haircut. Dom's was a little more surprising, but not really that sad. I prefer the sudden deaths, like the one armed woman from Reach, who's name I can't remember.

If anyone has RAGE and wants to give it a go sometime - HIT ME UP YO.

I actually have it, so yeah that could work. Also, are we obliged to type the name of a game, film or musical artist the way they spell it or should we just spell it as intended? Example, RAGE is Rage, another being KoRn is Korn. I get unduly irritated by this shit.

Hey man, I'm not having a go at you, I'm irritated at The Man. Look, come over her with little Greg.

I named him Greg :3

I haven't played Gears 3 in over a month.

More cleaning up random achievements on Halo Anniversary but I'm starting to get bored of it. Least I'll be getting all my other retail games back tomorrow.

I haven't played Gears 3 in 12 hours and I'm about to play it now.

Last night I beat the campaign in co-op on Hardcore. +100G

People seem to get unending joy out of the fact that my gamertag is JuicyRumpSteak to the point of which I get friend requests for it.

WET's final level is a QTE. Seriously.

It's like they ran out of development time about 1/10 too early.

Oops, accidently stayed up until 3.30am completing MW3 on Veteran. I know it's not that late but I need to sort out my sleeping pattern and this wont help.

I think I'll go through and get the intel now, I've only gotten about 8 from two full playthroughs. And I'll clear up any misc ones I've got left and that should get me another 115G I think, which should leave me on around 700G from this.

Finished Rage and boy what a shitty ending, honestly, that was quicker and more disappointing than the... (arbitrary sex joke). In all honesty, I get kinda pissed when I get these crappy endings, maybe not just the ending but the mission or fight or whatever before it. The ending of the first Bioshock nearly tainted my memory of an otherwise sublime game. Do developers just not care or something?

I also get really pissed off with crappy endings. Like the worst I have every experienced in Homefront. Seriously, the shittiest campaign I've ever spent 3 and a half hours finishing, and then for the ending to be my squad getting blown up on a bridge and I don't even find out if those idiots are dead or alive. I hope they all died because God knows they must want to be dead after starring in such a pile of wank.

Although, now you mention Bioshock I kind of want to play it again. I played it once and didn't find much enjoyment out of it, but I reckon I could give it another go, and probably finish the story this time around.

In gamerscore news, I'm just over halfway done with the Intel on Modern Warfare 3 and I've gotten all the achievements I can either possibly get or be bothered to get on my own. Just Spec Ops Missions and Survival now. I would go for the 1 Star on each Spec Ops Mission thing but that'd take fucking ages. Probably only 2 acheivements left that I'll get and I'll send it back with around 780G. Not bad for 2 and a half days work.

You think your behind, i haven't even played the second yet.

I was just sayin' because Oliver ruined yet another game for everyone in this thread that hasn't played it.

though he loves himself for doing that

But yeah, all the Intel is cleared up and I have no more achievements I can be bothered to get on my own because the time they'll take isn't really worth it.

Guess I'll send this back and get something else by Wednesday, updated my Lovefilm rental list so idc what it is.

Oliver will never admit it, but he knew exactly what he was doing.

One day Oliver, you will pay for your misdeeds. It will be sudden and unexpected.

Why what did I do?

C'mon guys, Dom was the most obvious death of the decade. If you didn't see that coming then you clearly aren't a fan and really shouldn't give a fuck in the first place. Soap really was more unexpected, even if it was more forced.

Did a lot in Saints Row 3 this week. Nice little game, had plenty of fun with it and I didn't think it was "too" wacky. Though Prof. Genki was weird. I might do the Saints Book, but I don't think I'll get around to the challenges there are a lot.

Tried to get some achievements on Battlefield but for some reason I'm getting some retarded lag issues, but I imagine they'll be sorted by tomorrow. Not sure what to do now though.

Just because you know it's coming doesn't mean it's any less moving.

So I haven't been playing Borderlands and AC: Revelations like I said I was going to, but I've been messing about on BF3 instead, got some achievements for unlocking all co-op weapons and beating the co-op campaign on Hard and stuff. I will eventually pull myself away from Gears 3 and Rock Band 3 to play the first 2 games I mentioned though D:

I really liked the world of Rage and I want another one, but there are so many things wrong with it. I think Rage was an overall shit game, but I did enjoy some of it a lot.

Tomorrow I have to wake up at 6am to go into school for a 2 hour exam. Then I get the rest of the week off. Should be getting Dead Space and Alpha Protocol tomorrow too.
