Mainly the AUG. My kd with that gun is around 3.25. Not sure it is available at 13. Famas should be available around 13. Otherwise just use an lmg until you get the aug, shooting in bursts of course.

Also depends on your style of play. M16 is good too. If you like running around then MP5K is for you.

Finally, you need to know the maps. That goes without saying, but it helps because the spawns are very predictable.

OK cool thanks for the help, I still think Reach is much better, I just got burnt out on it.

Funny, for whatever reason I own MW2, k/d 2.25. BO I'm around 1.5, COD4 1.4

Dragon Age II - Legends is out. It somehow manages to beat Origins. More realistic and visceral fight sequences. The strategic component remains strong.

I'm not far enough into the story yet, but it's got me hooked to find out what's next. I won't tear myself away from this one for months. I'm going through as a warrior now but fully intend on going through as a mage at least 2 times.

Spells are fun.

I think my mw2 kd should be around that, but my brother used my account for a long time before he had one.

I blame him for mw2 and cod4 hahaa

It was fun for one play through and that's about it. No real multiplayer so I traded it back in for $40 a couple weeks ago. The main reason I had gotten it was for the gears 3 beta but now that I get that just for having gears ordered I didn't need bulletstorm haha.

As far as shooters go, has anyone watched either of the 2 battlefield 3 gameplay trailers? Holy shit!!

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

Also sold Homefront. Shit game.

I'm picking up Crysis 2 and Portal 2, but I haven't enjoyed a mortal kombat game in years.

The MK is going back to the 90's style so I'll definitely check it out.

I reserved the Limited Edition of Tiger 2012. I am excited about being able to transfer your XP, the Caddy feature, and the fact that they have the Masters. I have the feeling that this one will be the one to own for the next few years.

Crysis 2 looks really good
