nope, it seems to get to the point where all the creatures just need to look at you and you're dead. I've got five paths to go through and I've hit a brick wall with all of them, but I haven't really put any points into my def yet which is going to take some grinding.

Hell, I'd let you play mine if Blizzard weren't known for unceremoniously locking down the accounts of account-sharers

two of my favorite games of 2011

I just got access to the Diablo 3 beta.

I think I'm in love. I played 4/5 classes and loved all of them.

Fun games(s) but I can't help wishing that all of them pushed the aesthetics as far into the abstract as Void does. The world needs more visually unique video games.

Finally got through Binding of Isaac with the last unlockable character

It's an indie action game which is a little bit like Zelda with a heavy gore/dark religious theme. It was made by the makers of Meat Boy and is available through Steam.

It's one of my favourites from 2011 with addictive gameplay and lots of unlockables. No playthrough is the same and I'm still getting new items and stuff every time I play, even though I've spent 36 hours in there so far.

Everyone should check it out

If you get 20,000 souls you can unlock the sealed door in the Darkroot Gardens which makes it incredibly easy to level. Inside the sealed door are a bunch of really powerful human enemies, but with a little glitch you can get them all to jump off a cliff. You can get 7,000 souls in about 2 minutes, so it's definitely worth saving up for.

Anyone have any tips on how to beat the hydra? So far it's killed me with projectiles every time but once that I tried to get close to it. It's a pain in the ass to put it simply.

I've picked off all but one of them with my halberd, I can out maneuver the last one but he always manages to one shot me

I'll have to have a look at that

I can't make it down the ladder to be honest.....

It's been about a year since I last played it, although I'm playing it on PC and not PS2.

Since I can't afford a decent computer, I thought I'd give this a try. It's fun tunneling through and exploring, anyone else play terraria? It seems like a lot of fun to create a world and have all sorts of stupid adventures.
