I don't wanna sound like a quitter, but I'm rapidly becoming frustrated by Syphon Filter online. The high-levels have all sorts of nasty stradegies to ensure that no one else EVER gets past the third rank without throwing up their arms in frustration. Mining spawn points, stacking teams (putting all the good people in one team), using no weapons but shotguns, you name it. And I'm sick of it. Why should I try in vain to beat a top-level guy dual-wielding shotguns when I can be playing a fair match-up in Socom? Of course, I'll still play it's online sometimes, and it's single-player is 10X better than Socom's, so it was still a good purchase.
I've had purchasing Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind on the back burner for a while now, but I can now if I want to. Unlimited replay, countless things to do...what else do you need? A few weeks ago I was at Gamestop and on the fence about buying it, but this lady came in and I talked to her, and she said that you spent the entire time just walking from one quest to the other and it got really old, so I got Panzer Dragoon Orta instead. Well, I still want Morrowind. The only thing that's holding me back is that I don't wanna spend more money than I already have.
As for what I'm playing right now, I'm liking Gun a lot. You don't spend that much time doing the main missions, you mostly go around doing side quests like being a farm hand, and being a bounty hunter. Normally I don't like side quests, because you take an hour to do one, and then an NPC walkes up to you and says, "Congratulations! Now I will give you a mystical emerald ring that will increase your magical defense +1!". I hated that. But in Gun, it feels like your really accomplishing something because you get paid and can go buy new stuff to improve your guns fire rate, power, accuracy, load times, ect., and you get stat boosts. For example, for taking a bounty your gun handling stats go up, for helping a farmer on a ranch your horse-riding skill goes up. Awesome game, I just hope the story mode is longer than they say it is.
