Aussie Readers discussion

Last year I had a goal of finishing my games I purchased...I started off quite well but life got in the way and I slowed down that whatever I finished was quickly snubbed by the fact I bought more..lol

So again this is my challenge to myself and with a self imposed ban on various games this goal "should" be easier to get (hmm..wait and see).

I reccently got a kinect as well..Awesome fun :D

Ha, wondered if you would continue with this goal Laura! Wasn't sure whether to put the old thread into the archives or not! Good luck with it, it's an awesome goal!!!

I deleted the old one..Didn't need it as a reminder..lolol XD So I fresh new year..fresh new start!! :D

And thankyou :)

:D

Im excited for you your list always gives me more games to check out good luck

Good luck Laura :)

Thank you Jess and Mel :)

@Melanie- Haha..that's not so good for your pocket then seeing all these different games XD

This year I'm going to number my games off so this way I get to see what I finish a little bit easier.

1) Saints Row: The Third (excellent fun)


Currently playing
1) Tron
2) Puss in Boots (Kinect)
3) Gears of War 3 (the new DLC just came out so going to be playing the storyline for it..Main storyline of this game was completed last year)
4) Tenticals (no idea how far I'll get)
5) Fable 3 Golf (got stuck so i've sorta stopped for now)
6) Let's Golf (this gets harder as you go along)
7) Fruit Ninja (Kinect)

Little update:

-Finished-
1) Saints Row: The Third (excellent fun)
2) Puss in Boots (Kinect)

Well done Laura!!

You finished saints row the third already! wow, impressive

wait wait wait ..you can get fruit ninja for kinect!
how did I miss this dear god I must buy

Brenda, thanks :)

Lost, yeaa the storyline for SR3 is much shorter than the other two :( But new DLC is coming out soon :D!

Melanie, yessss you can :D Makes your arms sore though..lol I got mine free with Gunstringer. So, if you're interested in Gunstringer you instantly get Fruit Ninja (it seems). I also have it on my Windows Phone but finished it last year.


Another game to add to my list of started games is-

7) Bug Village (however this will take ages to finish unless I want to pay for acrons/gold coins)

-Finished-
1) Saints Row: The Third (excellent fun)
2) Puss in Boots (Kinect)
3) Gears of War 3 - RAAM's Shadow DLC storyline (finished it yesterday)

-Finished-
1) Saints Row: The Third (excellent fun)

3) Gears of War 3 - RAAM's Shadow DLC storyline (finished it yesterday)
4) TRON

Wow... I just gave up completely ever finishing games. I just buy them, play them for a bit then shelve them :)

The big question is; did you get all the achievements?

@Brent - I used to be like that..Start many but never finish anything but main thing if fun was being have then that's all that matters :D

@Lost - Naw and don't intend to either unless I really want too.

What is your score at the moment? (I'm too lazy to look it up)

58974

60000 by the end of the month :P

Hopefully or very close to it! I'm just a little over 59k now since my last post.

5) Fruit Ninja (Kinect)

*Added Haunted in replacement of GoW3

Oooo..Today I actually 1ked Saints Row: The Third! That was amazzzzziiingggllllllyyyy fun game even doing everything to get the achievements!

And yesterday I started Implode on the WP.

Good on you Laura:D

Have you played FIFA 11?, because I've been playing it for the last three hours at this sleepover, and have beaten all the boys who play it regularly :)

this thread is making me feel lazy! hahah
damn and I told my self i wasnt allowed to get uncharted 3 until i finish my other games (sobs uncontrollably)

sigh well seeing as i'm now literally stuck at home with no where to go i best get on it

Fark..I was playing Dead Space 2 last night..That game is a moody son-of-poop! lol It's awesome and scary at the same time.

Anyways, I just shut the 360 off for the night and I turned a lamp on in the room when suddenly my TV turned itself back on! I felt a little spooked because I was already feeling abit on edge after DS2..lolol

@Jess- No..I don't really enjoy sports games as such. Plus I'd never touch FIFA 11 on the 360. People are using that to hack peoples accounts. Very bad :(

@Melanie- Lol Get gamin'!! What are you currently playing?

Well I have finished almost all the quests in skyrim :D and Jess, I play Fifa 12, get with the times ;)

Skyrim is still consuming all my xbox time

how far in are you? finish the dark brotherhood first if you haven't already, you get some very useful stuff

I keep getting distracted by the world, I haven't done many of the quests yet. Currently I'm only lvl 18

I'm level 81 :D yes I play way way to much ;) All I do now is fight elder dragons and giants, so much fun..

That must be awesome, did you focus on any skills?

well I'm 100 for all skills now but I started with 2 handed. when you get the dark brotherhood horse attack him as much as you can, he is almost unkillable unless the patch fixed it :D

at the mo my brother picked me up the tomb raider trilogy in anticipation for the new one coming out
i have never played the middle one (anniversary) so im up to the dino part in that one
and another that i have totally blanked on the name at the moment
and im re working through the halos as I have not yet played reach im on the third now

don't bother about combat evolved :/ If you hadn't heard, it's only just better than the first so there was no point fr the remake

I'm focusing on archery

I played the first one awhile ago I was under the impression that the release was the same game just updated for the newer console so i had no desire to buy the game over... is it actually different?

the campaign is the same with a couple of new levels and theres like 2 new maps.

and anoth..."
Oh yea, that dino part I remember it well..That got me rather irritated.
