PS. Despare, Shadowgate is the shit :D

You pick up a book
You read the book
You are dead.

Is Dark Spire as hard as Shadowgate? Shadowgate was ROUGH when I was a kid.

This game is pretty shit. I had hoped for a moderately challenging, Resident Evil type on the Wii but the controls are crap and there is alot of aimless wandering without a map to find your way. Also, whenever you're about to battle a spirit they have a cut scene lead into it so there are no shocks or surprises.

Getting too old for this new controller shit...

Mount & Blade
$5.00 was a steal for this one, it's like Pirates! in Medieval times.

cheebacheeba 10-09-2009 07:55 AM

Played through "shadow complex".
Those with a 360 - this one's worth the download cost - it's like oldskool revamped. Simple. Very fun. Few good boss fights. Hope they make a sequel.

I've been playing a fair bit of "Rocky Legends" which I have to say is one of the most fun Multiplayer VS games I've ever played - you have such beefy fights in it...right now just playing mindlessly in single player to try unlock everyone, there's like 40 boxers up in there!

Super Mario World for SNES.

One of my roommates just brought his SNES up from home. I think we all know who just became my favourite roommate.

Disgaea (DS)

Funny, deep (traveling into weapons to level them is amazing), and a blast to play. What other game has an angel saying, "Nice to meet you, I'm an assassin."?

Freak 10-24-2009 08:15 PM

Great to hear. Ordered it friday. :)

Just blew through Dead Space and loved it! Thinking about picking up Resident Evil 5, but the mixed reviews have me a little leery.
Also considering playing through The Suffering and sequel again.

All-time best game is Worms: Armageddon and I've been playing that for years now.

Fallout 3
- Broken Steel
- The Pitt
- Point Lookout
- Mothership Zeta


The auto-axe from The Pitt is an absolute kick-ass weapon!! :D

Reminds me of the plasma cutter in Dead Space.

Well my x-box 360 is being fixed by Microsoft right now so I have dusted off my PS2.

Mine just took a sh*t, so I said "Screw it! I'm buying a PS3." Need to find the $$$ first though. :rolleyes:

Be warned. Apparently the new model is not backwards compatible which is why I wont be buying one. I dont have space for a PS2 and PS3. My 360 is from when they first came out so for mine to last as long as it did is quite impressive.

I'm starting over fresh (sold all my old games already) so it doesn't matter much. Plus I didn't have a PS2 so the backwards-compatibility doesn't mean dookie to me...

Ballad of Gay Tony, Cool new weapons but the Death Match's feel different someway.

Took me a few good ol' "college tries" myself... lol! The octopus-monster that hucked sh*t at you, pissed me off way more.

"Borderlands" PS3

Very Fallout2, but more fast paced and more addictive.

I'M HOOKED!!!

Kinda want this one, but it looks like more FPS with very little story... Is that true? Or does it have some story?

...

Playing Final Fantasy: Crysal Chronicals on the Gamecube. Adorable. Really enjoying this one.

I'll be honest... story is only "meh", and its heavily weighted to FPS combat and missions. Not alot of thinkings; tons of shoostings!!! :D

With your aforementioned preferences in mind, I wouldn't see you enjoying it....

Forgettable story with some humor tossed in to make it a little more interesting. Very "loot" oriented, almost like an FPS bred with Diablo in the Fallout universe but decided to keep the RPG elements super light in lieu of shooting the crap out of stuff. It's a blast in co-op though.

I can only agree.

most fun i've ever had playing a game

Posher778 11-17-2009 06:27 AM

Continuing to obsess over Requiem. Best mmorpg i've ever played. (Beats WOW by a long shot, and is just a step above 2 Moons). Finally pushing into high levels and becoming an all out bad ass.

Good to know. Thanks, Guys. It's not that I have anything against FSP's... I'm just really REALLY bad at them, so I need an interesting story or setting to get me through (or something like VATs in Fallout 3)... Bioshock, for example, I LOVED, but completely sucked on the shooter end of things.

And, well, Des has witnessed me play Left 4 Dead.

I'll save my money on "Borderland." The boyfriend might decide to pick it up, though, so at least I'll be able to try it out without paying for it. :D

...

Tried Sacred II today. Considering that this is a game for the 360/PS3 consoles, I find it a bit disapointing. Doesn't really do a lot for the grenre that hasn't been done by Diablo II YEARS ago... The UI is overly-complicated and confusing and I find it lame that you can't trade with people unless you're playing with them live, and that all loot is pre-allocated when you're playing with other players... Diablo II and Balder's Gate did it better.

Still enjoying Crystal Chonicles, though. Simple. Cute. Looking forward to Bioshock II and Dragonage for my more "complicated" games... Will probably get the boyfriend Left 4 Dead II for his Birthday in January.

"Assasins Creed 2" PS3

That's one of the longest and most boring intros i've ever played.

Slowly starting to get fun tho.

cheebacheeba 11-22-2009 09:43 PM

Well, myself and the chick recently acquired a couple of Nintendo DS's, and got these cool little devices called DSTTs for 'em, so I've had a fair few games to look at.
First of all, I don't think FPS games work on this system...at all...then there's the pissy versions of the games that come out on 360/wii/PS3, those are not really much good either, though the exclusives to DS are really quite good.
Using the stylus thingy is a bit annoying in some cases (prince of persia...click-to-go-here system) but not nearly as annoying as I thought it would be, and quite clever/intuitive in some other games, eg cooking mama.

I'm looking forward to playing the continuation of one of my favourite series, the title being "mario vs donkey kong 2" which is the third game starting with the gameboy/gameboy colour version of Donkey Kong, which if I haven't mentioned it is one of my favourite puzzle themed games ever.
Though, I'm leaving that one be for a while.

I saw a trailer of the game I've been getting into a while back, and I'm having a fair bit of fun playing it. Called "Lost in Blue", and is apparently a spiritual sequel to a series of games "stranded kids" featuring on earlier systems...though nothing to do with them really aside from theme, that being "Lost on a pretty much deserted island".
You have to forage for food, keep yourself warm, fed etc, while exploring the island, hunting for food (spear fishing with the stylus is difficult but fun), managing resources, building things, and basically staying alive.
It's not an easy game though..."learn by dying", I'm just about to start the game from the beginning for the third time. Though, it's a fun game and keeps you wanting more.
It's a bit like...Ico meets zelda.

Try Moon, once you get the controls they're easy but it's not a lot of shooting, VERY atmospheric and a wonderful Adventure/FPS.

cheebacheeba 11-22-2009 11:22 PM

I have Moon and Dementium.
Not played either yet...but yeah the version of COD4 they had on there didn't look so great, and yeah you had to control it by using one hand on the left/right of the DS and one with the stylus...I honestly doubt my "ability" in a combat situation if this is the only control scheme available.

What other DS titles have you got into?

Straker 11-23-2009 05:27 AM

Left 4 Dead 2.

Just like a polished version of the first one. Haven't played through all the campaigns yet, but the few I have played are quality. The new special infected are cool too.

:cool:

VERY slowly.. :mad:

cheebacheeba 11-25-2009 08:59 PM

Here I am with 100+ ds games, and I'm still just stuck on "Lost in Blue".
It's even a bit BORING haha, survival crap...but, something's hooked me to want to finish it.

Though I had a quick look at "wireway", nice looking bouncy puzzler.

Also the sonic games on the ds are IMO the first time since the 16-bit era that a sonic game has felt remotely familiar, like, what if they advanced the game in ways OTHER than 3d...

psycho 11-28-2009 04:00 PM

Ha ha wimps!
 
I'm playing


Alone in the dark (ALL)
Doom 3 (nightmare difficulty)
resident evil 1-5 and code veronica X and 0 remake (ALL IN HARD DIFFICULTY)
condemned 2 (OH YA!!!)
:D :D :D :D :cool:

I just found a reason for Chrono to buy this.

The newly released "The island of Dr. Ned" expansion pack.

Welcome to zombie horror land.

OH YEA!! :D
