No one gets sarcasm.... did you catch that I have a sand castle, I also have a strip mine, a garden and am making a roller coaster.

I confess, I was a bit confused... Sarcasm needs its own font. I just do things aimlessly, restart worlds frequently, etc. I enjoy messing with TNT and eggs at the moment.

That too. I think that it's sad a sarcastic comment teeeennnnnds to be draaaawn out like thiiiiis to emphasize. The internet really does need standard contextual fonts. Times New Roman for a troll maybe? Comic Sans for sarcasm? Wingdings for eight year olds?

Need for Speed : Hot Pursuit - 8/10
 
I'm not good at driving games so I'm not going to progress any further.

Dead Space 2 [single] - 9.2/10. 7 hours and 30 mins in at chapter 10. This sequel is better than its predecessor in almost every way imaginable. I don't find the game scary at all due to having played Amnesia before. Boss fights are some of the crown jewels of this game.

SuperTuxKart on Ubuntu Perfect Ten (10.10). It is the newest version, obtained by adding a PPA. The version in Central is a slightly older version with different interfaces.
Never played a game that actually includes some form of physics (except, well, Angry Birds). Keep in mind that the best game I've ever played is Red Alert. Two. The best FPS (probably the only) I've played is Serious Sam: Second Encounter. This one ran on a 945GM and combines random bloodiness with plain what-the-bleep fun (you have a headless guy screaming).
8/10 for "game", 9/10 for what it is.
Understanding that this is a clone of the Mario Kart, I am evaluating this on a stadard that is somewhat established on Mario Kart (Wii).
Lacks: Different vehicle profiles. All karts in Tux are (AFAIK) the same. In Mario Kart there are different handling and speeds. Loses 1 point.
Lacks: More power-ups (or power-downs). Personal thing (would be nice to have some homing stuff, but the cake is already somewhat homing, so). Loses 0.5 points.
Lacks: Slightly better graphics. Maybe a bit more details and please draw some bloom. But already better than the one in Central. Loses 0.5 points.
The whole "for what it is" is the potential factor, because I've seen vDrift (that draws bloom, filters anisotropy hence cannot run on my low-power computer).
But the game is free and open-source. So I should probably shut up.

Halo CE: On my Xbox 360 and PC. 7/10 but a 10/10 when it first came out.
Halo 3: On my Xbox 360 (duh) 9.5/10... The online experience has dwindled lately... Still kicks the pants off of Reach.
 
 
 
I agree.

Still playing GT5 here.. have been since thanksgiving... I'd rate it a solid 9.6 for longevity...
 
I still have LBP (the first one) in its shrinkwrap for when i finish GT5, and NBA Jam and Uncharted 2, so i should be set for a while...

Dead Space 2 - Enjoyable at first due to scares, but then the game just locks you large rooms and sends waves of enemies at you. It gets repetitive.
