----------------------------------- Josh Wed Jan 10, 2007 8:46 pm Your latest gaming endevours. ----------------------------------- Borrowed Miami Vice off of a friend on Saturday and by the Monday I had completed it and unlocked everything. Not a bad game by all means, but it 'borrows' the game engine from Resident Evil 4. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Wed Jan 10, 2007 9:49 pm ----------------------------------- I finally got 100% completion on the game version of Kamen Rider Kabuto. Now I need to work on getting 100% on Ultraman Fighting Evolution Rebirth. ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Jan 10, 2007 10:23 pm ----------------------------------- How many of these games are there? ----------------------------------- Archive Wed Jan 10, 2007 10:25 pm ----------------------------------- Re-played "Castlevania:Symphony of the night."

Can't wait to finally play the legendary game. Everyone I know RAVES about it and it's impossible to find. ----------------------------------- Archive Wed Jan 10, 2007 10:47 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah i read about that. It will have achievements which is pretty cool! ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Thu Jan 11, 2007 12:02 am ----------------------------------- How many of these games are there?

Those are the series based games, and then there's another game called, Kamen Rider: Seigi no Keifu (Geneology of Justice), unlike the series based games which are fighting games, Seigi no Keifu is a Survival Horror game. ----------------------------------- nogga_nootch Thu Jan 11, 2007 9:20 am ----------------------------------- i'm currently rocking out with guitar hero 2 for ps2, its cool ----------------------------------- SengYew_83 Thu Jan 11, 2007 2:29 pm ----------------------------------- Waiting to complete Okami on my PS2, and playing through Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops on my PSP for a second round... Just ordered a bunch of Sega Megadrive games off eBay Japan, waiting for them to arrive so i can dig out my good ol megadrive to play~! :lol: All these while rushing my assignment to be handed up tomorrow. :twisted: ----------------------------------- nick-a-tron Thu Jan 11, 2007 4:15 pm ----------------------------------- i still cant stop playing resident evil 4. unlocked the infinate rocket launcher and chicago typewriter and just keep doing speed runs through the game blasting away anything that moves. infact i need a new game. anyone know a game like resi' evil 4?

(and if anyone says resident evil 1, 2 or 3 i will sonic boom them!). Cold Fear (PS2) uses a similar game mechanic and is a survival horror set aboard a cargo ship. Not as good as Resi 4 but still pretty damned fun. ----------------------------------- Array Fri Jan 12, 2007 1:11 am ----------------------------------- Played Gears of War. Repeated 10 times. Played Dead Rising. Killed stuff for hours. GoW: CHAINSAW=PAINSAW!! OMFG, such an awesome game. DR: Kickass, hilarious game. Both for 360. EDIT OMG, tried little siggie (ripped from Nika's) and wanted just the gun, and got the whole 9 yards instead. I'll crop to just the gun. :D ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Fri Jan 12, 2007 2:20 am ----------------------------------- You might want to resize your sig, Array.

An old PS1 game. Good stuff. One of the best games I've ever played. I'm agree with you. I'm a huge fan of the castlevania serie and this one is the very best. Wonderfull graphix and the music...Rhaaaaa :D Excelent replay value, I play the japanese version. It inspired all the following castlevania tittles. The gameboy advance games are awesome. Super castlevania was also very nice. Special gift for you Archive, the uncensored succubus picture. (I love Kojima artwork) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v65/Depeche/dxsuccubustw6.jpg Visit http://castlevania.classicgaming.gamespy.com/dungeon.html I finished a second time 'shadow of the colossus' and now I have my retro gaming period. I dig out my good old C64 games, king quest saga, finished Maniac mansion deluxe and Zak mac kraken 256. I will go on with day of the tentacle, indiana jones and monkey island series. No wonder my hottoys ED209 conversion doesn't move a bit. Well I only have two arms unlike the real Cain. If it's a special gift, pm it.

Pretty good game. And today I started playing Black. Awesome FPS, pretty difficult, and the missions are long. I haven't finished the game and I can't wait for Black 2 to come out on PS3. ----------------------------------- CAIN MKII Thu Feb 08, 2007 12:49 am ----------------------------------- Yeah! Black is one of the greatest FPS I've played. Based on real weapons, it's god damn good. Kill zone is the absolute grunt game. Try these games, you won't be disapointed. For now I play FF XII. My first PS2 based FF and it's awesome, true to the original fantasy spirit we lost after FF IX. I didn't play much to the following FF X. I didn't tag with the overall fashion victim design. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Mon Feb 12, 2007 4:32 am ----------------------------------- Man...I've been playing way too many games on my PS2. I'm playing Scarface, Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, I'm still playing Black, and NOW I'm playing Ghost Rider. Don't ask how I got it early.

Or to you non-Europeans, Bully. Not a bad game, its pretty fun with quite a bit to do. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Tue Feb 13, 2007 4:52 pm ----------------------------------- Last night I finished Ghost Rider. It was a fun game. If you liked the gameplay style of Devil May Cry, and God of War then you might like the game. The Hellcycle levels were cool. My complaint for the game is like with every movie based game is that it could have been longer, and unlike Devil May Cry you can't sorta explore the levels and go into rooms, and they could have added in some puzzles. Pretty much the game plays out like this you walk into a room, a red field appears over the exit, a bunch of enemies, you kill them and collect their souls, and you walk into the next room, and repeat. And pretty much, just about inbetween each on-foot level is a Hellcycle level. ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Feb 14, 2007 12:29 am ----------------------------------- Rocky Balboa on PSP. Some of the most satisfying game mechanics in a game with great graphics and good sound. Recomended! ----------------------------------- Darthadios Tue Feb 20, 2007 8:33 pm ----------------------------------- Re-played "Castlevania:Symphony of the night." An old PS1 game. Yep ! I love that Castlevania Symphony of the night, wonderful game, one of the best games for PSone :D Absolutely brilliant game ! But last game what I finished is Hitman Blood money, it`s Ok but Hitman Contracts is is better :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Archive Tue Feb 20, 2007 8:37 pm ----------------------------------- "Sid Meier's Pirates!" on the PSP has got me hooked.

The Two Thrones was great but the lack of blood annoyed me. The blood in Warrior Within looked great... ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Sat Apr 21, 2007 1:40 am ----------------------------------- Started playing TIE Fighter again :D I'm trying to complete it on hard, doing all the bonus missions etc. LOVE that game.

"Henshin a go-go baby!" ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Sun Apr 22, 2007 3:08 am ----------------------------------- Viewtiful Joe... "Henshin a go-go baby!" Great games. There's actually quite a few Kamen Rider, and other Japanese Tokusatsu influences to Joe. They really need to make a 3rd game to close off the trilogy. I just hate how the 2nd one leaves you hanging. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Sun Apr 22, 2007 3:19 am ----------------------------------- beat guantlet seven sorrows. that game has such promise :? ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Apr 22, 2007 10:00 pm ----------------------------------- And now im onto Tekken: Dark Resurrection on the PSP...

I try with my brother (or better said vs my brother )the idiotic Conter Strike ..oki I was dead for 5 mins :mrgreen: well if he played with me the Tekken he would been dead immediatelly !! ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Apr 26, 2007 8:59 pm ----------------------------------- Sonic The Hedgehog on PS3, im borrowing it off of a mate. Not amazingly good and enjoyable in some places, but there are some really bad glaring technical faults... ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Thu Apr 26, 2007 9:07 pm ----------------------------------- I heard that Sonic PS3, and 360 were bad games, but Sonic and the Secret Rings for the Wii is more of a step in the right direction. ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Apr 26, 2007 9:37 pm ----------------------------------- Even Sonic and the Secret Rings has its flaws, mainly the control system, too sensitive in some areas, and not sensitive enough in others. Still, if you look at the track record for 3D Sonic games, a lot of the flaws have been present throughout; A bad camera, dodgy controls and below par graphics, and the newest one is no different. I am however prepared to give the benefit of the doubt. As time progresses, developers will get used to the software and will be able to improve on all of these problems... ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Wed May 02, 2007 7:30 am ----------------------------------- Doom 3 yesterday in night !! absolutelly cool !! damn the hell boys killed me in the first area !! but I will be better :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Parkan2005 Wed May 02, 2007 4:02 pm ----------------------------------- ge ge.... I start again some my old games such as:heroes 3.5 WOG,Diablo 2:Den of Evil,Parkan 2.And some old,rare games:Uprising,Imperialism 2.And sometimes i play Stalker via my network with folks from network ----------------------------------- Kevlar Antelope Sat May 05, 2007 2:14 am ----------------------------------- Finally went back to playing FFX I'm nearly done with it...that and I need to go back and start playing RE remake for the GC. I'm about halfway done with that as well.... ----------------------------------- artuditu Sat May 05, 2007 2:53 am ----------------------------------- I recently played and finished Jade Empire and Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, I also played half part of Neverwinter Nights 2. NWN2 is very boring and disappointing, the other two are very highly rated, but I found them just ok, not very original stories and character and very little items and skills... In my opinion they are very far from the best RPG's like Baldur's Gate 2 and Knights of the Old Republic. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Sat May 05, 2007 3:48 am ----------------------------------- NWN2 is very boring and disappointing, the other two are very highly rated, but I found them just ok, not very original stories and character and very little items and skills... In my opinion they are very far from the best RPG's like Baldur's Gate 2 and Knights of the Old Republic. In my opinion the reason why NWN is so highly rated is because of the online multiplayer. Not only could you play the game's storyline, but you could create your own original story, maps, and items. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat May 05, 2007 9:59 am ----------------------------------- I would be playing Spiderman 3 if it was out on the 4th like the other versions... So im practicing on Spiderman 2 for now... ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Sat May 05, 2007 4:57 pm ----------------------------------- I would be playing Spiderman 3 if it was out on the 4th like the other versions... So im practicing on Spiderman 2 for now... From what I heard, rent it before you piss yourself off. They fudged a lot of stuff. It plays like Spider-Man 2 + Ultimate Spider-Man. As in.. no more swinging line to line, one in each hand, and having to hit jump to let go. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat May 05, 2007 10:53 pm ----------------------------------- I played the PS2 version and its like Ultimate Spiderman but with nice graphics. I hated Ultimate Spiderman so this annoyed me... Still, Viscarious Visions are doing all other versions so the Treyarch version could, and I hope will be better... ----------------------------------- Josh Sat May 05, 2007 10:54 pm ----------------------------------- I played the PS2 version and its like Ultimate Spiderman but with nice graphics.

It's.. pretty. That's about all that can be said. I'm still giving it a chance but it feels rushed. Rather than fixing everything and lacking content like with the second game, they seemed to have swapped the procedure so it has bunches of stuff but doesn't play as well as it should. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun May 06, 2007 8:44 am ----------------------------------- I just hope the swinging mechanism is more akin to Spiderman 2 on the PS3 version, cause I liked the idea of jumping for miles only to whip out a web at the last moment, and with Ultimate Spiderman it felt a bit 'slowed down'... ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Sun May 06, 2007 10:32 pm ----------------------------------- I just started playing Transformers today. Not the movie game, the other PS2 game, it was originally titled Transformers Armada: Prelude to Energon. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Sun May 06, 2007 11:32 pm ----------------------------------- I just hope the swinging mechanism is more akin to Spiderman 2 on the PS3 version, cause I liked the idea of jumping for miles only to whip out a web at the last moment, and with Ultimate Spiderman it felt a bit 'slowed down'... Spider-Man 3 doesn't feel slow like Ultimate Spider-Man and has speed upgrades like Spider-Man 2, but the mechanic is more like Ultimate. You don't carry your momentum from swing to swing, it's more jerky, and not nearly as blissful as Spider-Man 2. Sorry if I'm breakin' your spirits here, just letting ya know what my experience thus far with Spidey 3 is. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon May 07, 2007 1:10 am ----------------------------------- All I can say is thanks for the heads up. Spiderman 2 was one of the most fun games out there in terms of 'transport' and it kills me to see a winning formula tampered with. Still, playing as New Goblin may be fun... ----------------------------------- ibuybug Mon May 07, 2007 4:47 pm ----------------------------------- Starcraft Too bad I got bored rather easily. Maybe I should try Fallout 2 next since Fallout 3 is soon here (in a month or so if I remember correctly) ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Mon May 07, 2007 6:20 pm ----------------------------------- Test Drive unlimited on PC. Great game but full of bugs :rage: ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Mon May 07, 2007 7:01 pm ----------------------------------- I just tried out the PS2 version of Spider-Man 3, and I don't see why everyone is complaining about the swinging, I actually think it's better than 2. Although it takes awhile to get use to the fact that swinging is done with 2 buttons instead of 3. You can go just as fast, and jump just as far, also I think it's better as I find myself not hitting buildings as often. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Mon May 07, 2007 7:07 pm ----------------------------------- I just tried out the PS2 version of Spider-Man 3, and I don't see why everyone is complaining about the swinging, I actually think it's better than 2.

You can go just as fast, and jump just as far, also I think it's better as I find myself not hitting buildings as often. I dunno about the PS2 version, but on 360 your momentum between swings doesn't get carried over, which bugs me. That's what I HATED about Ultimate was that it didn't matter how crazy fast you were going, swinging just speed bumped 'ya down. Sure, you can swing fast, but everytime you let go and shoot a new line, it's like putting a cap on your top speed. As for New Goblin.. you can't get off the glider, and if you wanna try meticulously maneuvering him into place to swipe at baddies.. yea, he could be fun. I think that playing as the Goblin in the first is probably a bit better though. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Tue May 08, 2007 1:42 am ----------------------------------- Ok...one thing I will complain about the PS2 version of Spider-Man 3... MAN IS IT SHORT!

You have 15 seconds to comply." ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Fri May 18, 2007 9:05 pm ----------------------------------- I took off yesterday and played the Halo 3 beta not bad, but not impressive either.. its a very polished looking Halo2 game, and I guess thats all you can ask for. ----------------------------------- Josh Fri May 18, 2007 11:10 pm ----------------------------------- Spider-man 3... Im havin' fun! ----------------------------------- Mephisto Mon Jun 04, 2007 2:35 am ----------------------------------- I consider myself a CastleVania Enthusiast.... but i had never played through and beaten CastleVania 3: Dracula's Curse on NES. Well today i did, and i beat the game...and it was one of the hardest goddamn games I've ever played. Shit...the enemies on that fucker were beyond cheap. Dracula of course though...was pussy shit. :? Why am i not surprised? :roll: I believe his shittiest form would have to be from the end of Symphony of the Night. That thing was unbelievably weak. Hardest Drac I've ever remember beating was the one from the 1st CastleVania...and the one from the SNES port of Dracula X. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Mon Jun 04, 2007 2:45 am ----------------------------------- I've been playing WWE SmackDown vs RAW 2007 on PS2. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jun 04, 2007 9:33 pm ----------------------------------- Urban Chaos: Riot Response. Not bad. Not the best looking game ever but that adds to the 'gritty' effect. The shooting is very satisfying due to the impact the weapons have and the sound effects. Add in a slow motion camera and regdoll physics and you're in for a laugh. I recomend it as its probably cheap, I got my copy for Ł8... ----------------------------------- RoboDave Mon Jun 11, 2007 3:15 am ----------------------------------- http://img47.imageshack.us/img47/2664/tragamecovermv3.jpg I just got this on wednesday. its basically the first tomb raider game from 1996 (it even takes place in '96 :mrgreen: ) and is given a graphic and sound overhaul with bigger levels, more enemies etc. think the remake of the first Resident Evil for Gamecube, visually stunning, had some new changes, but was still familiar to those who played the PS1 version back in 1995. TR:Anniversary is just like that, if your a fan of Lara Croft, then get this game. I like that it was cheap for a new game, I paid 29 bucks for it instead of the almost 50 I paid for TR:Legend last year :shock: . ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jun 11, 2007 9:15 pm ----------------------------------- Very cool... Resistance: Fall Of Man... Not bad at all, a little annoying in places though... ----------------------------------- Parkan2005 Tue Jun 12, 2007 7:09 am ----------------------------------- 5 days ago i just startet again to PLAY WORLD of warcraft on my network server.Now server is not simple...it is now work like Burninc Crusade(or BC).For this 5 days i grow only to 21 level,because server has some troubles with expirence for quests.But now it is work normal. ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Wed Jun 13, 2007 9:36 pm ----------------------------------- Started playing A.C.E. 2 - Another Century's Episode 2. It's a Japan only PS2 game, that has no chance of ever being released anywhere outside of Japan. It's a game that features mechs from: Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz Mobile Fighter G Gundam Aura Battler Dunbine Blue Comet SPT Layzner Brain Powered Metal Armor Dragonar Heavy Metal L-Gaim Super Dimension Fortress Macross (aka Robotech: The Macross Saga) Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Movie - Do You Remember Love? Martian Successor Nadesico Martian Successor Nadesico: The Prince of Darkness Wings of Rean. It features a total of 107 playable mechs. And most mechs doesn't play the same, they each handle differently, the ones that do play the same as others are ones that are basically the same mech, but with a different pilot, and paint scheme. The game is pretty much an action game version of Super Robot Wars, both games are published by Banpresto, but A.C.E. 2 was developed by From Software (the makers of the Armored Core games) The game is freaking awesome, and the controls and gameplay are like the Zone of the Enders series. It sucks that this game will never be released in the US, due to licensing rights. I recommend checking the game out. Here are some videos of the game I found on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Another+Century%27s+Episode+2 ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Jun 13, 2007 9:59 pm ----------------------------------- I continued with MotorStorm and have now fully completed it with gold medals on every race. I have also been online and cleaned up there aswell... ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Sat Jun 16, 2007 7:51 pm ----------------------------------- So far I have about 40 out of 107 mechs unlocked for Another Century's Episode 2. Gundam Wing Zero Custom's Buster Rifle attacks are freaking devastating. Gundam Heavyarms Custom is fun to pilot too, I mean who wouldn't want to play a mech whose armed to the teeth in firepower, for those who never seen any of Gundam Wing, Heavyarms uses a gatling gun arm, and in Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz, Heavyarms Custom has FOUR gatling guns, two on each arm. I hope to unlock the Macross mechs soon, I just have to keep playing through the story mode. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jun 17, 2007 1:00 am ----------------------------------- Tenchu: Time Of The Assasins on PSP. Not bad and pretty fun and satisfying in places, but the draw distance and some camera isses let it down a little... ----------------------------------- Sean_001 Sun Jun 17, 2007 1:18 am ----------------------------------- Actually haven't had any games loaded on my computer because of hard-drive room issues. External hard-drive you say? Broke. My animation projects take up all the room on my computer. I constantly have to keep erasing pictures to keep my computer running fast. But when I'm done with RoboCop vs terminator 2, it'll be nothing but Quake 4. Then if I can save any money, I'll play that game Fear. I hear it's fun. But that's me. Broke and don't have enough to buy an XBox or anything cool. Just me and my Super NES. ----Sean ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jun 17, 2007 1:21 am ----------------------------------- Nothing wrong with the SNES.

TR:Anniversary is just like that, if your a fan of Lara Croft, then get this game. I like that it was cheap for a new game, I paid 29 bucks for it instead of the almost 50 I paid for TR:Legend last year :shock: . I too am playing TR:Anniversary. I played the original game back in 95. This is just as much fun as it was then. ----------------------------------- Damonzero Mon Jun 25, 2007 2:18 am ----------------------------------- anyone play warcraft 3: dota? :mrgreen: in my netowork and in the whole city most of players of warcraft plays dota.But some my frinds who ad a big experince in the simple warcraft game on the battlenet says only one thing:"Dota for looser players and nothing more" Yea, ladder players hate custom maps especially dota becoz is getting famous and bigger, dota WCG already happening since 3-4 years ago, and the asia region champion prize could go up to $50k :shock: ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Thu Jun 28, 2007 10:44 am ----------------------------------- S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Chernobyl :D ooooh that was an awesome game.

Yeah I was expecting more, but I still enjoyed it :) ----------------------------------- Bambi Thu Jun 28, 2007 12:44 pm ----------------------------------- Just installed The Curse Of Monkey Island. Haven't played it in a while. It's a classic. ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Jun 28, 2007 9:41 pm ----------------------------------- The original Crash Bandicoot and WipeOut games... Oh the memories... ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Fri Jun 29, 2007 10:56 pm ----------------------------------- I just started playing Transformers The Game. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Jun 30, 2007 2:20 pm ----------------------------------- Any good? ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Sat Jun 30, 2007 2:47 pm ----------------------------------- What I've played so far, it's alright. The steering sucks, it's real tight, they should have went more with GTA type physics, I can handle Optimus, and Ironhide steering tight, since they're a semi, and a large pickup, but not Bumblebee, and Jazz. Also, the game isn't 100% true free-roam, after a mission you can roam around the area, but you cannot travel to other areas, for example, You can't get on the freeway in the Suburbs area and go to the city. The only thing to do when roaming, is either find bonus content pickups, and challenge markers. There aren't any side missions, it's basically go from one story mission to another. I guess a good thing about roaming is you will run into random drones to fight, they'll be in their vehicle mode, and when they see you they'll all of a sudden transform. The game has a sorta GoW-ish camera bobbing effect when you're running around in Robot mode. I recommend a rent to decide whether you want to buy the game or not. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Jun 30, 2007 11:16 pm ----------------------------------- What version do you have? PS2? I'm now messing on the demo of Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Its not too bad actually and may warrant a buy. That is after I get The Darkness... ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Sun Jul 01, 2007 2:33 am ----------------------------------- What version do you have? PS2? Yeah, I have the PS2 version, but the console versions are all identical, except the 360 and PS3 versions have more G1 skins you can unlock, and the better graphics. The controls, and the gameplay, and everything else are identical. The only games that are different are the PSP, and DS versions. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jul 01, 2007 9:11 am ----------------------------------- Thanks for the info Kamen. I may rent this then decide based on that... ----------------------------------- Robocop_Unit_1983 Tue Jul 10, 2007 3:14 am ----------------------------------- Recently Beat Commander Keen Episode 4: Goodbye Galaxy! and managed to put together a midi song from the game.

It's a nice game. Love to see lots of star ships togeather :D That game pissed me off to such a degree.. ugh.. Not only did they bold face lie about features that they NEVER put in the finished product, but I don't think they could have made it any more clumsy to control than they did. That said, I loved cruising around with 4 Constiution class starships and whoopin' Klingon ass, but it should have been so much better. ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Mon Jul 23, 2007 3:48 pm ----------------------------------- Star Trek Legacy.

Or "Robopimp is my God" You'll think of something. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:46 am ----------------------------------- I see you have indeed changed your sig, back to an old one too. Good move. In other news, i currently have acquired Dead Rising, after completing Crackdown. 318 Zombies dead so far. Well, that's what it says. Damn save system is an ass, makes me have to repeat things mad times. So estimated Zombies killed: 1000. Awesome game though. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Jul 28, 2007 9:41 am ----------------------------------- I never had so much fun playing with a lawnmower, or dressing up as MegaMan... ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sun Jul 29, 2007 12:51 am ----------------------------------- I never had so much fun playing with a lawnmower, or dressing up as MegaMan...

Aaahhh... that brings up some memories from the good old NES days. I've always loved the game, but it was a little hard. I find the arcade version a bit easier. There are two versions - Endurance Course and Fighting Course. I beat the second one. The NES game didn't have ending at all and the arcade one's is crappy. Just some chick with a knife syanding in front of your bike. Even though the crap ending the game's still fun to play. ----------------------------------- Sgt.

Besides, Virtua Fighter is for those who can't handle Tekken... So today I was bored and stopped by at the new Gamestop in town and bought 2 crappy games: Vampire Hunters & Judge Dredd: Dredd VS. Death. The first one I got cause I wanted to test my G-Con2 light-gun. Result = NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MY TV!!! 7,90€, gone... Dredd was a first person shooter, it's okay I guess. It licks ass so much but I kept on playing it because, hell, it was Judge Dredd. It's really hard though... And the best thing is your melee attack which is ofcourse Dredds fist. Painful... ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Mon Nov 05, 2007 4:32 pm ----------------------------------- . Besides, Virtua Fighter is for those who can't handle Tekken... . Actually Its the other way around, Most Tekken only players can't handle the sporadic nature of VF. Tekken is very combocentric, that is to say, you need to button press an exact sequence in order to do a specific combo. depending on the character some tekken characters only have 100 moves Tops, VF has not only combos, b ut moves that are combo modifiers, essentially linking together new combos on the fly. On top of that their moves for each character are wayy over a hundred. making it really hard to be predictable. So going to Tekken from VF is actually a step down. Alot of good Tekken players are VF Vets. but hey, whatever helps ya sleep at night :mrgreen: Im getting Owned on Virtua Fighter bigtime :( Seems you can't play either... getting owned by players who are harcore doesnt mean I cant play. I'd probably mop the floor with ya in VF in other news, my comp couldnt handle the crysis demo. the video card totally crapped out. and defaulted to 4 bit mode :lol: ----------------------------------- Sgt.

One hell of an amazing game. I'm used to playing the games on Hardened, but come on... There is one level that I deem completely asinine. You start off trying to snipe a guy. However, this is realistic sniping. You have to take in account of wind and such. So you cant just point at him and shoot. After you snipe, you have to run to the Extraction Zone. On your way there you have to fight an endless wave of enemies, about 13 at a time, from both front and back down a long street. If you can pass that, its sort of smooth sailing until you get to... ...the Extraction Zone. You have to survive wave after wave of enemies for 5 minutes. There is no where to hide that they can't throw 3 grenades in at a time. They come from the East. The West. The South. The North is a trail of bushes that is impossible to pass. They also come from ABOVE out of Helicopters. 3 Helicopters full of soldiers wanting to kill you. Dogs also try to kill you. If they grab you, there is a high chance it's going to be an insta-kill. The entire area is about half the size of a football field. There is very little cover. A few cars, and two booths. There is no where to run. The entire area is surrounded by RADIATION. Insta-death to those who wander away. When the Helicopter comes after 5 minutes you have about 45-60 seconds to run back to your teammate, pick his sorry ass up, carry him to the Helicopter (Which parks itself RIGHT in the middle of everyone trying to kill you), walk through bullets from the never ending wave of enemies long enough to get into the helicopter. If you do not get to the helicopter in that time, they say "Screw this" and fly off. Insta-lose. If you fail, you have to start it all over again. ALL. Over. ... Again. :| I was forced to play through it on Recruit... then went back to the rest of the game on Hardened... ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Tue Nov 06, 2007 3:07 am ----------------------------------- wow COD4 does sounds tuff... that's 360? ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Tue Nov 06, 2007 3:25 am ----------------------------------- Yea. Hardened is what I like. You can only take about 4-5 direct bullets, even from automatic guns before dieing. Veteran... As always, you're gonna be finding yourself relying on your team mates to do everything, since 2-3, and sometimes one direct shot will kill you. I can only wonder what the FUCK I'm going to do when I try that sniping level on Vet... :? Oh yea- Edit to my previous post. ----------------------------------- Burnout Tue Nov 06, 2007 6:43 am ----------------------------------- Just went back to bioshock, stopped playing just before Halo came out, beat the game with the good ending. Still think that game is amazing! Been working on Manhunt 2 for the PSP along with Caslevania dracula X. Manhunt is ok, lil bit better with the hack to view all the kills uncensored. Dracula x (or rondo of blood depending on how you roll) is just horribly hard. Theres no way to up your health mid level and you move un godly slow! WTF, I love a challenge but this is ridiculous.

I love the free running and combat on Assassin's Creed, I love the over the top action of StrangleHold. Kane & Lynch. While not perfect, it i better than most of the reviews have stated. I recomend all three to you all... ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Dec 12, 2007 2:07 am ----------------------------------- I was really looking forward to Kane and Lynch before the reviews panned it, maybe Ill give it a try after all. Thanks Duck. ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Wed Dec 12, 2007 5:55 pm ----------------------------------- 840/1000 for Mass Effect. So close... yet so far. The achievements are easy... just very time consuming. Only need the Asari and Quarian Ally achievement. And most of the "Use X biotic 75 times achievements." I will be ever so happy when I complete the game fully. As for Assassin's Creed... Fuck that scavenger hunt. I tried to go back and capture all 500 billion of the flags, but got fed UP with all the "Please, help me!" "Thief! You are Filth!" "Thief! You are Filth!" "Thief! You are Filth!" "Thief! You are Filth!" "Please, help me!" "Thief! You are Filth!" "Thief! You are Filth!" "You dare steal in my presence? That will cost you your life!" "Please, Help me!" "Thief! You are Filth!" :evil: :rage: :x FUCK. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Thu Dec 13, 2007 12:26 am ----------------------------------- Kane & Lynch. While not perfect, it i better than most of the reviews have stated. I recomend all three to you all... does K and L use the Hitman mechanics? cause hitman is a pretty flawed shooter. it only works because you arent really supposed to be shooting, and you really go up against more than a dude or two at a time. I just beat Bioshock.,, Loved it. very awesome story, I just dont know how movies are gonna keep up to the awesome immersion created from games. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Dec 14, 2007 8:04 am ----------------------------------- Oh, yeah! Just found PR Super Legends! I'll try it as soon as I come home from school! ----------------------------------- AJM Fri Dec 14, 2007 8:25 pm ----------------------------------- I've been having another go on Motorstorm and Resistance now they're vibration equipped, its how it should have been all along :) ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Dec 19, 2007 12:18 am ----------------------------------- MC, its a modified version of the Hitman engine. There is a cover system, the soulders are used to raise yor weapon and fire. The recoil is a bitch though but you get used to it. Rent before you buy... ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Wed Dec 19, 2007 12:23 am ----------------------------------- Rogue Trooper woo! ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Dec 19, 2007 12:30 am ----------------------------------- Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow. Oh yeah! ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Dec 19, 2007 4:16 am ----------------------------------- Finally playin assassins Creed, my god this game is amazing. Sure it has its quirks but Duck is right about it being great. The graphics actually took me by surprise, the videos, even the HD ones, dont do the game justice! ----------------------------------- AJM Wed Dec 19, 2007 2:23 pm ----------------------------------- Call of duty 4 ohh! :D ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Wed Dec 19, 2007 2:53 pm ----------------------------------- My gamerig died on me the week before my surgery (better than me dying and that stupid thing going strong though)... I think it's the PSU. But the damn Stackercase weighs 15kg without components alone. It's gonna be a while before I can lift it again. ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Fri Dec 21, 2007 12:46 pm ----------------------------------- That sucks SiR.. hope you get it fixed I've been playing Knights of the Old Republic for the past couple of days. I've never played it before, and it took a while to get into, but damnit, it's addictive. I think my graphics card might be overheating though. In every game all the textures kind of stretch, peoples legs disappear, all that kind of stuff, but no crashes. Speedfan says "Aux2" is at 122 C, which is... rather hot, really. I'm assuming that is my gpu temp, I don't know what else it could be. My card has a bigass fan/heatsink on and I cleaned all the dust I could out of it but it made no difference. It's that temp even on startup after leaving it off all night, so maybe it's just a dodgy reading? Ah well, if it melts it'll just mean I have to upgrade sooner... ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Fri Dec 21, 2007 12:54 pm ----------------------------------- 122 celcius would mean vaporise... So I guess it's not a fair reading. A cpu or GPU shouldn't go above 60 tom keep it from overheating. Also when overheating a graphics card, useally the mem causes problems first. But that would result in green pixels etc. artifacts, not complete textures missing. Sure you have the latest DX and drivers? ----------------------------------- Justice Fri Dec 21, 2007 3:18 pm ----------------------------------- I agree... I called my old AMD processor a mobile heating unit because it frequently ran above 50 celcius... My current system is "cheap" and does not have temperature sensors. But when I feel the air from the exhaust vent it's sometimes even cooler than room temperature. Dell FTW... But my next PC will be the higher end XPS720 with 2 gigs of ram, a fast dual/quad core and a nice video card mated to a 24" flatscreen. That is if I don't get fired at my new job in the coming months (the first months... if you are past that, they NEED you). Why not 4 gigs of ram? Because Vista (and XP for that matter) can only use 3... and to take advantage of dual channel you'll need 2 / 4 slots filled. I am not going to pay for 4 and only be able to use 3... ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Fri Dec 21, 2007 11:14 pm ----------------------------------- 122 celcius would mean vaporise...

But that would result in green pixels etc. artifacts, not complete textures missing. Sure you have the latest DX and drivers? I guess it's just a dodgy reading since I'm not seeing any artifacts, just screwy textures. I have the latest DX and I got the newest drivers from the ATi site when I built this a few weeks ago. I never noticed any problems until I got my new screen actually. Hmm. I will investigate further. I've been playing KOTOR all day again today :D but, it crashed horribly and I hadn't saved it for a while and I can't be bothered to do that part again just yet. I might take a break and play some SWAT4 ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Sat Dec 22, 2007 11:16 am ----------------------------------- Hmmm, well, a screen should leave textures alone now wouldn't it? :mrgreen: Have the correct monitor drivers? Not that I think that could cause textures to disappear... ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Sat Dec 22, 2007 3:58 pm ----------------------------------- Hmmm, well, a screen should leave textures alone now wouldn't it? :mrgreen: Have the correct monitor drivers? Not that I think that could cause textures to disappear... Maybe it has something to do with me running the games at 1680x1050 instead of 1152x768. Though I should think an x1900gt should be able to handle that. Bah, I have no idea. All I know is that since I got my new monitor, every game has been screwing up :? Gamingwise.. :mrgreen: I finished KOTOR this morning. I got tired of the goody goody, preachy jedi lot so I turned to the Dark Side.. maybe I will play it through as a good guy one time but I'm not sure I can be bothered with all that :D ----------------------------------- Justice Sat Dec 22, 2007 4:27 pm ----------------------------------- You are running at a higher resolution, so your videocard and system get taxed a lot higher now. And you don't want to run anything below "native" on LCD's because it looks like crap. I run everything on 1680x1050 here as well. My video card is a crap Ati 1300 pro 256meg card. I am not going to upgrade because in about 3 months from now I'll be dropping around 2k at dell for a new XPS720 system with at least a 3Ghz dual core, 2 gigs of fast ram and a nice geforce with 768 megs... And vista... for that directX 10 shit... ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Sat Dec 22, 2007 7:07 pm ----------------------------------- True, digital screens, native pixels is a must. I don't know the specs of the vidcard, but it sounds pretty high for 3D rendering. If you really wanna go high you need a powerhouse, so parallel vidcards, linked and all... Nice if $$$ is no problem and $$$ also isn't a problem three months after that, and so on... :mrgreen: Try a lower res, see if the textures are okay. The only workaround I can then think of is a lower res but with a denominator of the native res, never choose a random one. I'd say 4/5 so in ur case: 1344x840 But feel free to xperiment, there's a program called powerstrip if you can't handle custom resolutions out of the box. But I think the res I mentioned is just another digital display value. Good luck, you can do it Lizzeh! ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Dec 23, 2007 1:49 am ----------------------------------- Banned for all of this technical jargon... ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Sun Dec 23, 2007 3:07 pm ----------------------------------- Just trying to help... ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Wed Dec 26, 2007 2:54 pm ----------------------------------- Crysis. Pretty good :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Fri Dec 28, 2007 8:48 pm ----------------------------------- damn that is luck ..Crysis as well :) ! Finally i played that more than one hour .. because usually I play it with my boy-friend . when I am killed plays he and the same when he is killed ...but of course he is better , is playing the game longer than me ..but today he did not can to kill an Japan general . I was trying and I killed ! but it begin be complicated .many strange aliens and etc I think the end is near ! ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Fri Dec 28, 2007 8:56 pm ----------------------------------- Right now, I'm playing Transformers on PSP, and also Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3 on PS2. UFE 3 is a little bit like DragonBall Z: Budokai in that you can customize attacks and transformations, as you unlock them in Custom Mode. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Dec 29, 2007 1:30 am ----------------------------------- Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice. Lovely... ----------------------------------- Burnout Sat Dec 29, 2007 3:09 am ----------------------------------- Finally jumped on the band wagon and picked up Call Of Duty 4, Stupid hype train was right..... ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Dec 29, 2007 11:54 am ----------------------------------- Woo Woo! Its a fun ride... ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Sat Dec 29, 2007 3:09 pm ----------------------------------- I'm kinda just playing through old-ass games I got right now. Mainly Doom 3 and Homeworld. I didn't really get any games this X-mas, and I'm gonna have to save up some more dough before I can get some new ones. I'm definately gonna get Call Of Duty 4, it seems fucking amazing. Crysis will definately be a good choice, too. Might even get a racing game, as well. So many excellent games, how can they expect mere mortals like myself to have the time or cash to get 'em all? Conspiracy, I say! Bah! :b ----------------------------------- AJM Sat Dec 29, 2007 4:25 pm ----------------------------------- Finally jumped on the band wagon and picked up Call Of Duty 4, Stupid hype train was right..... I read your post and decided to give mine a go, took out Uncharted and after the first mission I'm hooked :) ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Dec 29, 2007 6:32 pm ----------------------------------- Call of Duty 4 online is great. Fast paced and some of the best maps around. I go online with one guy frequently and thats what makes it better... ----------------------------------- AJM Sat Dec 29, 2007 7:36 pm ----------------------------------- I'm no doubt terrible but I got the PS3 version so i can go on line.... eventually, once I get a bit better. ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Sat Dec 29, 2007 10:11 pm ----------------------------------- I sat down to play Operation Flashpoint today - I'm determined to finish the Resistance campaign - but it crashed horribly. My damn graphics card again! I've just ordered an 8800GT though :D I'll finally be able to play Crysis, wooo ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Wed Jan 02, 2008 8:04 am ----------------------------------- Did you ever get those textures fixed? I think I theoretically solved my gamerig problem... It was crashing every 10 minutes or so into HL2ep1, while I played ep2 and HL2 without problems... Did go for driver upgrade and such, but it's funny how something older should suffer while the new shit played perfectly. Now... The damn thing died completely on me as you might know... Probably the PSU. THAT would Xplain the lockups/crashes as well, when power fluctuates in a pc, there's no telling what would happen, but locking up when really pushing it is very plausible thing. So getting a new or new second hand PSU needs to be bought. Then I'd know fo sho and we could all get on with our lives. ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Sun Jan 06, 2008 9:18 pm ----------------------------------- Tomb Raider Anniversary just now ..but now I dont know what to do there .. I think tomorrow I will find the solution :roll: ----------------------------------- Burnout Mon Jan 07, 2008 1:55 am ----------------------------------- Im taking a break from Tomb Raider Anniversary on my 360 actually, Ill come back and finish it after Marvel Ultimate alliance. Im also taking my sweet time with Call of Duty 4, I think Im on the last level or two but I just dont want it to end! I think my next game purchase may be Burnout Paradise though, that game looks and plays so great in the demo. ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Mon Jan 07, 2008 9:45 am ----------------------------------- And, well, it's got ur nick in the title... ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Jan 09, 2008 2:25 am ----------------------------------- The Orange Box. Three words: In the pants. I was considering getting Burnout Paradise but The Orange Box will keep me busy. Plus, Vegas 2 comes out soon... ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Jan 09, 2008 4:35 am ----------------------------------- Oh Vegas 2 sounds cool, I never really got into the first despite everyone telling me I should. Perhaps this is my chance. If only you had a 360 Duck, then we could hoot some folks together! Im thinking of getting a PS3 either end of this year or beginning of next for the glory that is Blu-Ray. Buying Tron off the Live arcade in the morning, cant wait for multiplayer lightcycles! Did anyone ever play Tron 2.0 for the PC or Xbox? I seriously want to try it but dont know if its wort the effort to track it down. Your opinions are appreciated. ----------------------------------- RoboHell Wed Jan 09, 2008 2:08 pm ----------------------------------- Played guitar hero at best buy the other day and the crowd wouldn't stop booing at my shitty fake guitar playing. :evil: ----------------------------------- JohnBoyAdvance Wed Jan 09, 2008 7:59 pm ----------------------------------- I completed Tomb Raider Legend, Loved the ending. Need to get the Union Jack costume for patriotic justice. But I am now playing Virtua Fighter 5. Great game. ----------------------------------- Demon619 Sat Jan 12, 2008 1:31 am ----------------------------------- I just beat Call of DUTY 4, but still trying to beat the bonus mission on the hardest difficalty, Assassins creed is badass too ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Jan 12, 2008 12:00 pm ----------------------------------- I'm still playing Power Rangers Super Legends. Last night I beat the MMPR levels. The game's awsome, but I'm kinda disappointed from the Megazord battles. But I enjoyed seeing the classic Megazord back in action. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jan 13, 2008 1:40 am ----------------------------------- I finished Portal and am pretty much at the end of Half Life 2. The ending theme for Portal (Still Alive) is a piece of genius... ----------------------------------- Law Giver Sun Jan 13, 2008 8:17 am ----------------------------------- Playstation 2's, REVENGE OF THE SITH.

But does it go high up in detail and res? I find I can't put myself to play old games, because I'm so spoiled in graphics. ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Sat Jan 26, 2008 7:02 pm ----------------------------------- Soul Reaver Legacy of Cain .. at work .. ( this is a modified version of the older ) and looks it very nice . at home .. we had a history evening with the oldest games ( but still such funny) so Contra force ,Robin Hood ,Adams Family , yup also Robocop .. and etc :) ----------------------------------- Burnout Sat Jan 26, 2008 9:20 pm ----------------------------------- Playing Burnout: Paradise, its wonderfully fast........and pretty. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jan 27, 2008 1:21 am ----------------------------------- I was contimplating purchasing that. But when faced with GTAIV, Vegas 2, MGS3 or Burnout: Paradise, Burnout comes last... ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Sun Jan 27, 2008 7:50 pm ----------------------------------- Won an eBay auction for a Seasonic M12 500 Watt. Stupid bidders, driving the price up. Sniped their asses anyway. I see it as a small discount to buying it online in Holland. Saves me a mere 15 Euro. Anyway, if all goes well, I'll be back to HL Ep... I forgot what I was playing. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jan 28, 2008 12:54 pm ----------------------------------- I forgot what I was playing. Old age does that to you... ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Mon Jan 28, 2008 1:19 pm ----------------------------------- That, and a couple of months of time and having my brain removed... ----------------------------------- Law Giver Thu Feb 14, 2008 12:20 am ----------------------------------- I picked up Warhammer 40K: Fire-Warrior for 12 bucks on ebay for PS2. Its not a bad game, but mediocre even for 2003 standards. ----------------------------------- Cincinnatus Thu Feb 14, 2008 1:10 am ----------------------------------- I got Soldier of Fortune: Payback and it is utterly horrible. I would suggest you stay away from it. I loved the SOF series but this was a horrible nail in its coffin. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Thu Feb 14, 2008 5:37 am ----------------------------------- "No more heroes" for the Wii.. its a fun lil beat down game, with cool swordplay. ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Thu Feb 14, 2008 8:13 am ----------------------------------- Really? SOF rocked when it first came out. Zone damage ruled... ----------------------------------- Cincinnatus Thu Feb 14, 2008 9:28 am ----------------------------------- Really? SOF rocked when it first came out. Zone damage ruled... Indeed, the SOF series was quite amazing especially with the amount of damage you could do to people. In fact that was the only good thing that came out of purchasing it from Best Buy because it came bundled with the Original Platinum Edition. The New one is just sheer shit on a stick though. The damage model is quite mild compared to SOF2 the voice acting is horrible and the lack of profanity humorous. It has a nice array of weapons and the graphics aren't half bad but the gameplay is horrible to the point of being nauseating. It looked amazing but was two steps way back for the series that should have been left alone instead of Activision trying to milk it like a cash cow. ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Thu Feb 14, 2008 10:01 am ----------------------------------- Sad... The more praise for Valve and Half Life, the shit just keeps getting better, even though they take millennia to develop new parts. :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Kevlar Antelope Fri Feb 15, 2008 9:04 pm ----------------------------------- I've been playing COD4 the last 2 months straight. ----------------------------------- AJM Sat Feb 16, 2008 3:44 pm ----------------------------------- I had a go on COD4 online yesterday, lasted about 15 seconds, got killed three times and got sick LOL ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Sun Feb 17, 2008 9:08 pm ----------------------------------- "Flat out 2 " that was Valentines present from me to my boyfriend ..we played it almost whole day .. that is so funny ..finally I can smash cars and no one is injured :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Feb 23, 2008 12:53 am ----------------------------------- Finished DMC4 in a couple of days.

I have to agree though the enemies die fast because they still use the same damage engine that made Rainbow Six famous then you couple that with the COD health style system it is a mismatch.

Except then I will probably have flashbacks to my Afghanistan Campaign in Hind....though Hind made Afghanistan look easy when you tried the Fictional Korean War Campaign. :lol: ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Sat Mar 01, 2008 11:21 am ----------------------------------- Now that is one pretty game DJR2096 thanks for the link. :D I will have to give it a go I think....especially if I can fight in Chechnya know some fellows who fought over there and it could be fun to pound some of those Mujis.

Cannons only. Hard work. Especially F-15 and Mirage jets. My biggest gripe about the Mig-29 is it's lack of range. I Know that the list of upgrades has been for more fule. ----------------------------------- AJM Sun Mar 02, 2008 10:30 pm ----------------------------------- Been playing frontlines on the 360, bl***y brilliant. ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Mon Mar 03, 2008 9:29 am ----------------------------------- Just started World in Conflict.

Still haven't gotten a chance to get some new games, so out of boredom, and to make sure this comp is working well, I'm going through some old ones. Railroad Tycoon 2 Gold Civilization 3 Homeworld All damn good time-killers. Hopefully I can get some new shit pretty soon and shelf this old crap away again. Until then, off to build railroads, empires and space fleets. :) ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Apr 03, 2008 2:20 pm ----------------------------------- I've been playing the new Transformers game for a while.

As practically a lifetime C&C fan who hated Generals, my feelings are mixed. I just finished Tiberian Sun the other day and Tiberium Wars doesn't quite feel right to me. I've only done a few NOD missions so far though, I guess I'll get into it ^_^ ----------------------------------- Philip17 Wed May 07, 2008 4:01 pm ----------------------------------- I've FINALLY bought C&C 3. As practically a lifetime C&C fan who hated Generals, my feelings are mixed. Hey don´t worry, I also love the C&C saga, red alert and tiberium..... and I also hated Generals.... it was not good....even worst when I played "renegade"... whatever.... Don´t feel bad about that, generals shouldn´t be on the C&C world, but C&C3: tiberium wars, we play with the same/similar graphics from generals!! at least we have Kane back on the role, but one bit of advice.... I think you should have started with GDI :) Just a warning, cause the story is a little wierd.... (you will find out... soon enough...) ----------------------------------- Lizzeh Wed May 07, 2008 4:12 pm ----------------------------------- I thought about starting with GDI.. but I love NOD so much! I'm not too far in, I guess I could switch to GDI Also, I thought Renegade was pretty fun. I never played it online but the singleplayer was entertaining for a while :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- SiR-ROUND Wed May 07, 2008 7:25 pm ----------------------------------- Too busy to make that 2010 deadline for gaming... ----------------------------------- Philip17 Thu May 08, 2008 6:52 pm ----------------------------------- yes, you should play with GDI :mrgreen: afterall, we (GDI) are the good guys :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: and we must stop kane :D ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Thu May 08, 2008 10:17 pm ----------------------------------- I decided to replay Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2, this time on Adult Rated Mode (aka Normal mode) Capcom needs to make a Viewtiful Joe 3 game to finish the storyline. ----------------------------------- Archive Thu May 08, 2008 10:20 pm ----------------------------------- I'm trying to complete "Call Of Duty 4" on Veteran difficulty.

I've only played it for about two hours now, but I must say they did a great job with this game. ----------------------------------- Philip17 Fri May 09, 2008 10:07 am ----------------------------------- I'm in love with GTA4. I've only played it for about two hours now, but I must say they did a great job with this game. The rock star games were allways good!!! :) That is why they had problems with the violence :lol: That game gives you complete control of an entire city, 100% open cars, feel free to kill, go to a dinner if you want to, and many other things.... Just tell me one thing, does GTA4 also have the other cities??(Liberty City, Vice city and San Andreas)?? It would be cool to go to CJ´s house :b , or visit once again the great city of Liberty ----------------------------------- Kamen Rider Fri May 09, 2008 4:54 pm ----------------------------------- Just tell me one thing, does GTA4 also have the other cities??(Liberty City, Vice city and San Andreas)?? It would be cool to go to CJ´s house :b , or visit once again the great city of Liberty No, Liberty City is the only city in the game, but this time it's bigger, more detailed and has more depth to it, so you can spend hours exploring Liberty probably. ----------------------------------- Philip17 Fri May 09, 2008 6:59 pm ----------------------------------- That game is awesome, I always loved Liberty City!!! to bad we can go to he other cities... well, I will go now play another old game "Urban Chaos" with my dear Darci Stern.... and Roper I don´t know why, but I just love the "oldies".... old games are nice :b ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Wed May 21, 2008 9:56 am ----------------------------------- Completed Call of Duty 4 on easy.

After completing the frankly over rated GTA IV I am currently dicking about on free roam multiplayer with a few gaming mates, victimising lone players. You know you have succeeded when you drive players out of a room... ----------------------------------- Darkseid Wed May 21, 2008 3:33 pm ----------------------------------- I finally got a chance to play Robocop for Playstation 2. You were all right...it sucks! Other than that, I just rented Iron Man-The Game and it's okay. ----------------------------------- Philip17 Wed May 21, 2008 5:44 pm ----------------------------------- I finally got a chance to play Robocop for Playstation 2. You were all right...it sucks! I never had the chance to play it, but from the comments I can see that the game was not good at all :? any way, I realy hope one day they can make a good robo game :D ----------------------------------- AlexMurphy Thu May 29, 2008 2:33 am ----------------------------------- I finally got a chance to play Robocop for Playstation 2. You were all right...it sucks! I downloaded the game demo. Pretty much unstalled it after finishing it's one crappy level game play. The demo had so many bugs, I'd hate to imagine how many there were in the full game. Anyway, recently got The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return for the Wii. The graphics haven't held out very well, which is expected it's pretty fun to be playing it again and not having to spend money in arcades. ----------------------------------- Philip17 Thu May 29, 2008 11:47 pm ----------------------------------- Well, I am now playing again the old game "Max Payne"!!! That shooting is awesome!!! :b ----------------------------------- Darkseid Wed Jun 11, 2008 9:51 am ----------------------------------- I just played 6 hours (starting after work) of Rocky Legends and just finished the careers of (in this order) Clubber Lang, Ivan Drago, Apollo Creed, and Rocky Balboa. I guess I won't give away the endings (unless asked). It's quite funny how I easily passed all the levels even on the Contender mode. I'm going to play The Incredible Hulk tomorrow (unless I have something better to do on Wednesday). ----------------------------------- FluxCapacitor Thu Jul 10, 2008 9:43 am ----------------------------------- Currently addicted to Civ4 and been playing Red Alert 2 for the first time in ages :) ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Thu Jul 10, 2008 4:20 pm ----------------------------------- Playing Racedriver Grid. Nice game, Nice graphix, pain in the arse to set up your steering wheel :rage: ----------------------------------- JohnBoyAdvance Mon Jul 21, 2008 5:51 pm ----------------------------------- A bit of DOA4. Unlocked that Spartan-458 character. Basically Girl Voice! Master Chief. Plus a bit of Halo 3. Seeing as I missed the discussion on the Female Robocop, I just wanted to add this: The only way they could justifiably do a Female Robocop is just have exactly the same armour as Robocop and just have a girl's face and voice. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Mon Jul 21, 2008 6:29 pm ----------------------------------- im having a good time with bad company :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Wed Jul 30, 2008 7:35 am ----------------------------------- Unreal Tournament 3 for Xbox 360. I haven't kept up to date on Unreal at all, the last one I played was UT 99, which rocked. It was a long wait for 3 to come out on 360, and my computer isn't good enough to handle it at all. But damn was it worth the wait. PS3 problems were fixed, graphics are better, new maps. No mods, but oh well. This is without a doubt the greatest Xbox 360 game there is, and I would almost go far enough to say it's the best game ever, but time will tell. In the past four days I've played about 27 hours of it, mostly with my friend who moved away for the summer. Usually I'd be getting tired of a game and have played it out, but so far I've only played about 1/4 of the campaign and only deathmatch online, and can never see myself getting tired of the game. I seriously recommend this game to anyone who likes a fast paced FPS, for any system. And if you get it for 360 and want to play, hit me up gamertag: bkUnreal ----------------------------------- Robocop_Unit_1983 Wed Jul 30, 2008 9:42 am ----------------------------------- I've been playing City of Heroes for 3 days straight with little sleep time, this game's more addicting than Evercrack... ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Wed Jul 30, 2008 12:36 pm ----------------------------------- I've been playing Street Fighter 3 third impact for 10 years straight,. that game never ever gets old. ----------------------------------- Bambi Sun Aug 17, 2008 7:33 pm ----------------------------------- Playing through all the Doom games at the moment. Stuck on the 3rd act boss (the robot spider thing). Have minimal weapons. ----------------------------------- protozoan Wed Sep 03, 2008 5:45 am ----------------------------------- played a demo of star wars force unleashed on 360. its fucking good!!! ----------------------------------- DJR2096 Fri Sep 05, 2008 4:32 pm ----------------------------------- Playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky. Oh yeah this game rocks just like Shadow of Chernobyl. Get it if you can!! ----------------------------------- protozoan Mon Sep 15, 2008 4:45 pm ----------------------------------- emulators!!! so much fun. personal faves are gunstar heroes on the genesis and wonderboy 3 on master system. and of course mario world and donkey kong on super nintendo. games had so much more individuality back then. i love new games but i can't help thinking they're all feeling and looking the same. also been playing the super star wars trilogy on super nintendo. it still rocks. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Sep 16, 2008 11:55 am ----------------------------------- I totally agree with you! I just played Super Spy Hunter for NES. ----------------------------------- Darkseid Thu Sep 25, 2008 9:05 pm ----------------------------------- I just finished Star Wars The Force Unleashed and didn't find the black lightsaber crystal. It's a lot better than the Star Wars games of the past so I would recommend this one! ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Sep 26, 2008 10:29 am ----------------------------------- I played some Mobile Phone games yesterday on my new phone. RoboCop is definetely very good. I also played Final Fight, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and Castlevania ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Fri Oct 03, 2008 10:18 am ----------------------------------- today ..I tried Devil Mc Cry ... and Spore ( hey that is totally funny ) :) ----------------------------------- kotor189 Sun Oct 12, 2008 3:15 pm ----------------------------------- Right now i myself am Playing Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Fight Night Round 3 both on PS3 i'll tell you COD4 is kinda getting worn out and fight night round 3 is a fun fun game and i love to play gun games, and normally dont play sports games, but fight night is one of those games that is just fun as can be, ----------------------------------- Burnout Tue Oct 14, 2008 5:28 pm ----------------------------------- Been gaming it up alote. Got one of those Blockbuster gamer passes to play some of the games I didnt feel like buying and it was well worth it. Beat Star Wars:TFU, Bourne Conspiracy, Condemned 2, and played a slew of others.

FALLOUT 3 and GEARS OF WAR 2!!! just downloaded a new video on the villians of gears of war 2. pretty fuckin' awesome looking! one has dreads like the predator and the developers were saying he's the hardest locust in the game. can't wait. if only my xbox would stop fucking crashing all the time! ----------------------------------- AlexMurphy Wed Oct 15, 2008 2:57 pm ----------------------------------- Playing Dragon Ball for the DS (it's already out in Japan). ----------------------------------- Law Giver Wed Oct 15, 2008 3:08 pm ----------------------------------- I've been playing Star Wars: TFU for PS2, I like the game, although I really cant consider this story completely EU canon, like I can with Tie Fighter and Jedi Knight game. Its hard to align with A NEW HOPE film. Anyway this game is a good sequel to the ROTS game I think, which I to thought was superior to the movie. The PS2 carries the Jedi Temple levels, which are most fun and my favorite parts. ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Oct 15, 2008 5:11 pm ----------------------------------- Honestly playing the 360 version and then playing the PS2 one was a mistake for me, though the story was the same the PS2 version basically threw anything cool about the gameplay and locations out the window. I barely played half way through it because I just couldent forget how fun the next-gen version was. Oh and the new Gears boss kicks RAAM in his balls! I totally agree about that video.... ----------------------------------- Law Giver Wed Oct 15, 2008 5:55 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah I know but I really dont have the money to shit out on 360 or PS3, the later being WAY overpriced yet. I am not a hardcore gamer, so PS2 works well enough for me still. Its bad enough I still collect action figures which are getting over priced at $7.99 now and Star Wars games only make me buy more figures like a big baby. The next game I will play is the Star Wars:Republic Commando as I finally got it working on my PC with a new Video card. ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Oct 15, 2008 6:46 pm ----------------------------------- I always wanted to try Republic Commando, had a demo for it on the xbox a while back and it seemed cool. I still need to get back to my PS2 and beat God Of War 2. I had finally gotten around to beating Metal Gear 3 back in june and that was an amazing experience. Lemme know how Republic Commando turns out.... ----------------------------------- Law Giver Wed Oct 15, 2008 7:49 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, I also got KOTOR I-II, they like Republic Commando, have been collecting dust on my shelf since 2005. ----------------------------------- RobbieValiant Tue Oct 28, 2008 8:30 pm ----------------------------------- I've started on LEGO Batman for PSP, and I've beaten 2 of the 3 missions on the Hero side. Haven't really tried the villains side, but I think it's really awesome that they have The Killing Joke Joker as an unlockable character! :lol: ----------------------------------- Archive Sat Nov 01, 2008 8:37 pm ----------------------------------- Red Alert 3 - A lot of fun. :) ----------------------------------- LouisRocks12 Sat Nov 01, 2008 9:26 pm ----------------------------------- I beat Guitar Hero2 on expert!

It's actually extremely fun and has an awesome, well thought out vehicle creator that makes the missions tons of fun. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Nov 27, 2008 3:29 pm ----------------------------------- Icy Tower - I had forgotten how addictive it was ----------------------------------- Burnout Fri Nov 28, 2008 12:38 am ----------------------------------- Burning through Prince of Persia 3: The two thrones in anticipation the new one coming next tuesday. SO much better than the 2nd one, which I beat last week. And what is Icy Tower btw? ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Nov 28, 2008 12:40 pm ----------------------------------- Icy Tower is an addictive freeware game in which you play as Howard the Homeboy (other characters were avaible in later versions, such as Disco Dave). The objective is to jump up the endless tower (the screen follows you) and try to make as many points as possible by making jump combos (such as 27 floors in a single jump). It's quite fun! You can download it here: http://icy-tower.en.softonic.com/ ----------------------------------- supes2705 Sat Nov 29, 2008 10:05 am ----------------------------------- Is fable 2 worth playing for anyone who has it? ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Nov 30, 2008 3:29 am ----------------------------------- Honestly it is more of a renter. Very good game but the main quest is fairly short in comparison to games like Fallout 3 and Mass Effect. Though much joy will be had during the game, most of my friends have stopped playing all together.

Yeah I know but I still havent been killed off one hit, calm dooon mate ----------------------------------- protozoan Tue Mar 10, 2009 1:19 am ----------------------------------- been playing resident evil 5. its pretty hard! you can get killed with one hit.

It's got awsome music too. I also found a DEMO (first 4 levels) of a fan made Ninja Turtles game called "TMNT: Wrath of the Shredder" which is pretty awsome. It uses sprites from the arcade and GBA games mixed with some familiar or brand new backgrounds and a few upgrades to the characters. It's really good and I'm looking forward to the full game. ----------------------------------- themon84 Tue Mar 10, 2009 11:40 am ----------------------------------- don't fuck with these colonals johntaper crxcrement attempting to take on these adversaries in halo 3 will result in....trouble but you can send them a friend request and show the others how robocop fans roll. ----------------------------------- protozoan Tue Mar 10, 2009 10:38 pm ----------------------------------- I've been playing a NES classic lately - Ferarri Grand Prix Challange - my all time favourite racing game.

What a piece of crap!! It has nothing to do with the NES trilogy, no story, no nothing and the last level is almost impossible to beat without saves due to the level having tons of bosses and enemies and only one checkpoint! I noticed, however, that the music that plays each time you fight the Wrestler bosses is Black Sabbath's "Iron Man". ----------------------------------- Burnout Thu Mar 19, 2009 6:13 am ----------------------------------- played chronicles of riddick escape from butcher bay all the way through again. still gets me pumped, such a great game. I started to play Riddick and got past butcher bay into the mines under the pit, god I love that game. I stopped myself though cause Dark Athena comes out on April 7th and Ive got it on reserve. I wanted the whole experience to be as fresh as possible so I am playing all the way through the newly remade Butcher bay and then diving into Athena, gonna rock! ----------------------------------- LouisRocks12 Thu Mar 19, 2009 9:42 pm ----------------------------------- I bought Metal Gear Solid 2 and beat it. The ending was rather creepy, but it's a good game. I shouldv'e bought Metal Gear Solid 1 first. Then I would know the storyline. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Mar 20, 2009 7:59 am ----------------------------------- Played an old NES game - "Dynowarz" by Bandai.

Awsome and very funny game. One thing that kinda sucks is that you gotta replay all the levels a few times in order to collect the bonuses. And there are lots of characters too. You can even play with Alfred, but the skin that really takes the cake is ClayFace. Another cool thing is that you can play the levels from the villains' POV. I've only beaten the first episode so far (both with heroes and villains), but I already love this game. The mobile phone version ain't bad either, but is nothing close to the PC one. ----------------------------------- Kevlar Antelope Sun Apr 12, 2009 2:11 am ----------------------------------- I played that the first week I got it and haven't touched it since. What system are you playing it on? If you have a PS3 we can game n' togetha now! Anyway I just downloaded the epilogue of Prince of Persia which of course was awesome just like the game totally worth it even though I beat it within about two hours. BioShock is on the way from Amazon I couldn't pass it up for $27.99 :) ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sun Apr 12, 2009 4:17 am ----------------------------------- Just snagged Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection which surprisingly lacks a single appearance of Phil Collins (get it? no? yeah). It's a really nice collection, pretty much every great game for the Genesis, including most Sonic games, Golden Axe, Vectorman, Kid Chameleon and a bunch other. Like 50 games total, plus bonus shit to look at. Takes me back to when i was a lil' kid n' shit. Good deal. So now I've got a long night of Sonic Spinball (the sole reason i bought the collection; best game evar.) ahead of me. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Apr 12, 2009 4:36 am ----------------------------------- I played that the first week I got it and haven't touched it since.

It's a pity that the game hasn't had a movie made based on its storyline, and it's a kickass game. ----------------------------------- protozoan Sun May 10, 2009 7:10 am ----------------------------------- do you really want them to ruin the game for you by making a movie based on it? :b street fighter and silent hill excused here. well, in my opinion. ----------------------------------- Robocop_Unit_1983 Mon May 11, 2009 1:40 am ----------------------------------- do you really want them to ruin the game for you by making a movie based on it? :b street fighter and silent hill excused here. well, in my opinion.

Man, this game's good. Not as good as I wanted it to be, but it's hell of a lot fun to beat the crap out of tons of bad guys with dozens of different moves. "Star Force" on the NES - still one of my favourites. ----------------------------------- Mephisto Wed Jul 15, 2009 5:56 am ----------------------------------- I got to be honest, I've owned a shit load of game systems back in the day. NES, SNES, GB, GBC, GBA, SEGA Genesis, SEGA GG, 32X, SEGA-CD, SEGA Saturn, Dreamcast, N64, PS1, PS2, shit I could go on. Hell I even owned a Nintendo Virtual Boy once. All these systems, I owned multiple models, multiple times, either trading, selling or buying them again. Some of these I had 10 or 12 times over the years. When the new gen systems came out, i retired from gaming. Got rid of all my systems, games. I just stopped messing with it. Systems cost too much in my opinion, and i didn't want to mess with it anymore. Well...I kinda got the gaming bug again, and for my birthday this year my girlfriend got me a system I never owned. I missed out entirely on this system during it's life span, but now i am playing it and definitely enjoying it. Here's my boy.. http://darklordmephisto.com/XBOX1.jpg http://darklordmephisto.com/XBOX2.jpg I love this thing. So very nice. This thing rocks. I know, you folks are into the PS3/360/Wii now, but this jewel is my system of choice for now. One day, I may get a PS3 or a 360 (if the fuckers ever become guaranteed stable. i got friends who have gone through many defective 360's) for now though, this is my gaming endeavor. ----------------------------------- supes2705 Wed Jul 15, 2009 9:18 am ----------------------------------- I finished Ghostbusters for the xbo 360 and got 33 achievements out of 50 so that'll do me nicely. Currently on Fight night round 4, and now ive just realised EA have put a bug in it, where it crashes in legacy mode, and im looking at the back of the disc and it has a very thin circular mark going around the outside of the middle, and I had this on my totally destroyed fifa 09 disc, both made by EA hmmmmm? ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Jul 15, 2009 12:21 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, a friend of mine got an X-Box second hand recently with a few games, but we can't find some good ones. We did buy two off eBay and now we're looking for some Batman games. I suppose, Meph, that yours isn't compatible with PAL games? Because if it is, we've got some stuff to trade. I had a TMNT gaming marathon the past two days - I beat almost all the games I had, didn't have time for all of them. A new game I played is "Chuck Norris: Bring on the Pain" on my mobile. It kicks ass! ----------------------------------- FluxCapacitor Sat Jul 25, 2009 6:37 am ----------------------------------- Currently playing Rainbow Six Vegas and Tony Hawk's Proving Ground.

Hmm, I actually found this installment more consistent with the series' 2D roots. I never got much into the 3D MK games, but I have plenty of fun with this one. And I've actually found more incentive to play that over SFIV. Not that SFIV isn't great, but it relies far more on the old arcade competitive gameplay and I'm too much of a misanthropist to tolerate playing with other people. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Jul 28, 2009 11:48 am ----------------------------------- I can't believe this! After years of searching I finally found the PC version of "Power Rangers Zeo vs The Machine Empire" on MegaUpload and it works! YES!!! The game is pretty good for it's time, I expected it to be much worse. It even has some live-action footage. Controls are a bit jerky, but nothing too bothering. I just beat the first two levels and am enjoying the game a lot. ----------------------------------- Neoranger Tue Jul 28, 2009 6:47 pm ----------------------------------- ^ I've been looking for this game forever. I found it at some point in the past, but never managed to get it to work in the newer systems. Ironic for a game where you fight King Mondo and the Machine Empire. I dealt with some issues with SFIV, since LIVE isn't available in my little part of the world, so I was robbed out of half of the game's content. Otherwise... it would be good, if CAPCOM finally dropped that archaic technique, where the enemy AI reacts instantly to the buttons you hit, instead of what actually happens on screen. Also, City of Heroes. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Jul 28, 2009 8:21 pm ----------------------------------- ^ I've been looking for this game forever.

It's a good game though. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Jul 28, 2009 8:50 pm ----------------------------------- I'm going to have to go old school on this one. And I mean really old school. I hate to admit it but I was kind of roped in to playing a game of D&D yesterday. Long story short, I expressed some interest in at least trying the game out and believe it or not I was half offered a job in process. Thing is, you just can't pick up and play a game of D&D. They brought me over and spent a whole day creating a character and backstory and etc. It was a long and tedious process. A serious process. I wasn't just playing a little game with them, I was becoming part of their story. And if I wanted to leave, it wouldn't be as easy as "well, I don't want to play anymore. Bye!". I would have to craft some story as to how I left the quest or how I died or etc. I was filling another player's slot at their table. I was a replacement. I was really overwhelmed and wanted to bail as soon as I got there. But they had canceled their "gaming session" that day to work on my character. So they were investing all this time in me and I felt like such a jackass because I wanted to leave already. So I stuck it out. I decided I would play at least one game before I decided anything. So fast forward a week later and there I was killing Orcs in a mountain pass with the rest of them. Rolling my d20 and stacking up my AC against their melee hits, hoping my DR-2 would save me. Hell, we all sat around and discussed tactics for about and hour before we did anything. Which was actually quite interesting. I ended up catching some Orc while he was taking a piss and he emptied his bowels as I hacked him in the stomach. So yeah, good stuff. The story ended up turning into the discovery that we were sent in to do a morally unjust quest and that we had the makings to start an Orc Holy War. So we bailed and my character went into town to visit his mother. I'm not even joking. All in all it was a pretty boring night that I couldn't get into as much as the rest of the party, who know what questions to ask and what things they are capable of doing in that world. But I definitely saw why people like this game. So I decided I would go to another session hoping the feel I got for the game this time would pay off better the next. Then just go from there. I feel that they have placed too much hope that I would become this permanent replacement for them. Which was never my intention. And the guy who invited me knew this as well. But here I am anyways. Hopefully I can get job soon and not have the time to play. Haha I'm a bastard. And if anyone is wondering, it was kind of like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHdXG2gV01k Only more serious about shit. So yeah, I better start practicing my dice throws. :wink: ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Jul 28, 2009 9:05 pm ----------------------------------- Well you fucked up deuce. You think those nerds are sweet and innocent and just spendin time to help out little old deusy? NO! These bastards are as shrewd as a stripper tryin to get everything in your wallet. They know how to rope somebody in and guilt them into playing because they are such nice people. You end that situation now, before they are trying to meet you at your place for some strategic discussion, then they will never go away. Beware of any person lurking in the backroom of a shady comics store, they have been sent by the devil to fuck with people, and not the cool guitar playing, dark lord. :twisted: ----------------------------------- Neoranger Tue Jul 28, 2009 10:15 pm ----------------------------------- I had absolutely no problems with it until now.

I reached the last level of "X-Men" for the first time and I even got to Magneto, but he beat the crap out of me. Did the same the other 20 times I reached him. I also played some "Judge Dredd" - again got to the last boss - Judge Death, but he killed me and the last password the game gave me is for...WHAT! 6 levels back?!?!? Damn! ----------------------------------- supes2705 Mon Aug 03, 2009 8:22 am ----------------------------------- pes 2009 ----------------------------------- Robocop_Unit_1983 Sat Aug 15, 2009 7:06 am ----------------------------------- Regardless of what anyone thinks, I've decided to re-visit my old N64 and GB Color games to catch up on my Pokemon quest I left behind back in 2003. I had to take apart one of my Pokemon game boy games (Pokemon Gold) because the nickle sized lithium battery (which allows you to save the game) ran out at last and I did what you might call a field replacement by buying another one, creating a custom screwdriver (burning a pen into the shape of the screw) to take out the weirdass screw and lost all 90 man-hours of effort I put into the game. Thankfully the batteries on both Silver and Crystal still work well enough, but for a moment I almost thought I 'd have to replace the battery on Pokemon Silver too, but it turned out to be a bad save. I've been playing Gold for a while now, about 46% done on it and still got a lot more to go. Fuck! I experienced first hand how addicting well-made RPG's can be when Red, Blue, Yellow, Stadium 1 & 2 came out, as well as how much time out of your life these can consume... ----------------------------------- supes2705 Sat Aug 15, 2009 9:07 am ----------------------------------- Played on the Batman Arkham asylum demo, words can not describe this game, amazing in every way ----------------------------------- FluxCapacitor Wed Aug 26, 2009 11:48 pm ----------------------------------- Played on the Batman Arkham asylum demo, words can not describe this game, amazing in every way Tell me about it, I can't wait.

The reviews speak for themselves, but honestly when I play it, it feels like when Ra's says to Bruce "I can show you how to engage 600 men", it literally feels like that when you take on a room full of goons. The Game Looks great, sneaking around makes you feel like Batman, and you can only use the batarang in the demo but its awesome, hanging creeps upside down, then cuttin the line with the batarang and watching them fall :D ----------------------------------- Burnout Fri Aug 28, 2009 12:08 am ----------------------------------- I literally have not played anything else since Batmans release.

It would take forever. B- Microsoft in general. They are being whiney shits about it. You don't need a Gold Subscription to play Champions Online on the 360, just a silver. And MS don't like that. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Wed Sep 16, 2009 1:33 am ----------------------------------- Batman: Arkham Asylum .. Holie fuck what a game... Not only is it the best batman game ever conceived. Its probably one of the best brawlers Ive ever played, and a way more satisfying stealth game than any of the previous Splinter cell games. On top of the the Music, Mood, and storyline exceed that of any batman movie yet. Its Tim Burton meets Frank Millers Dark knight draped with freaky realism. If I had to nitpick, I appreciate the fanservice by having the original Batman voice actor reprise his role, but it just doesn't fit for such a dark premise. Mark Hamil tears it up as the joker , and really no one can top him. ----------------------------------- Archive Fri Sep 18, 2009 10:39 pm ----------------------------------- With a large amount of travel time my gaming is mostly portable these days. Currently I'm playing "Scribblenauts" for the Nintendo DS. Like most NDS games it starts with a looooooong tutorial level and then moves on to a series of extremely easy and insultingly easy levels. After that it is fun for a while and then it gets difficult and annoying and i stop playing and switch NDS game and repeat the above. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Thu Sep 24, 2009 2:05 am ----------------------------------- Batman: Arkham Asylum .. Holie fuck what a game... Not only is it the best ba If I had to nitpick, I appreciate the fanservice by having the original Batman voice actor reprise his role, but it just doesn't fit for such a dark premise. Mark Hamil tears it up as the joker , and really no one can top him. You know, I agree but disagree. If you watch the saga of Batman in animation, you can see in the beginning he wasn't quite sure how to do it, but season 2 or 3 he hit his stride. After it hit The New Superman/Batman Adventures, he found his way to do it, but it just didn't have the grit that it used to. It's as if he's so used to it he doesn't strain himself at all while doing the voice, and while he may not have before, it was certainly something you could tell he was putting effort into. So Kevin Conroy, yes. Better voice direction? Even more so. Though I think the reason why Mark Hamill shined was the quality of his lines. It was like the first time you saw the comic incarnation with a voice that wasn't pulling his punches. And the brawling is fucking insane. Simple, but still not a button masher? It's like an art. When you do it on hard and start getting 40+ combos.. it's beautiful. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Sep 24, 2009 2:10 pm ----------------------------------- I beat "Dizzy the Adventurer" aka Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy on the NES a few days ago. I also played "Bad Dudes vs Dragon Ninja". I'M BAD! :D ----------------------------------- Fiwhiz Thu Oct 01, 2009 10:38 am ----------------------------------- I just reinstalled Dune 2000 on my PC it was such a great game back in the day. I have run into issues getting it to work correctly the screen is not centered and i haved tryed almost everything in an attempt to fix it. so I reinstalled GTA Vice City which was fun for the first few hours lol. ----------------------------------- Snoopy Fri Oct 02, 2009 1:04 am ----------------------------------- Well the game I'm into at the moment is Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 a japanese wrestling game(I'm playing it threw a Emulator).One of the best wrestling games out there ----------------------------------- supes2705 Sat Oct 03, 2009 4:00 pm ----------------------------------- FIFA 10!!! ----------------------------------- Neoranger Sat Oct 03, 2009 8:00 pm ----------------------------------- Metal Gear. I ran into a hilarious glitch too. I was doing the restock trick, leaving and then going back inside a supply room, then suddenly the music stops and when I exit said room again, all the guards in the area go fucking bananas. A pity I wasn't recording. ----------------------------------- Archive Sun Oct 04, 2009 1:41 pm ----------------------------------- Currently burning rubber in "NFS - Shift" for the PS3. Fun but tricky racing. :) Impatiently awaiting the release of "Unchartered 2" and "Brutal Legend" ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sun Oct 04, 2009 2:24 pm ----------------------------------- Ocarina of Time. Couldn't ever beat that one ever since I was a kid. But now I'm the farthest I've ever been. (On the shadow temple as of now) ----------------------------------- supes2705 Sun Oct 04, 2009 5:44 pm ----------------------------------- Brutal Legend demo is mint!!!!!!!! ----------------------------------- Archive Sun Oct 04, 2009 9:32 pm ----------------------------------- Brutal Legend demo is mint!!!!!!!! I wasn't gonna buy the full game, but then i played the demo and yeah,a lot of fun. :) ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Tue Oct 06, 2009 12:06 am ----------------------------------- Ocarina of Time. Couldn't ever beat that one ever since I was a kid. But now I'm the farthest I've ever been. (On the shadow temple as of now) When I first played it 10 years ago, in the back of my mind I probably could have used a Walkthrough, but I never did, and beat it all the way through. (though there were a couple extra things I missed, like getting all the spiders, uh skulltulas they're called? Bah.) Anyway, I've been going through some more old emulator games, since I lack funds to get any newer stuff and don't really feel like playing anything else. Presently going through the Phantasy Star RPG series on Sega, and playing Desert Strike and the Super Star Wars series on SNES. Also just beat Robo3 on NES. Phantasy Star games are solid RPGs that are pretty well done - they're challenging but still pretty fun and involving. I think they are still a bit underrated. Then again, they ain't going on for eternity like Final Fantasy or Zelda. :b Desert Strike is a pretty good Apache helicopter game. There are amazingly very few decent attack chopper games out there. I ain't played the Super Star Wars games in a long time, not since my friend had 'em years ago. I almost forgot how fairly challenging those games are. Good thing I can be a pussy and use emulator saves to help. :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Tue Oct 06, 2009 4:09 pm ----------------------------------- Ive been playing alot of ultimate alliance 2, like the first I dont really think its that great of a game, but somehow it sucks you in anyways. I remember Draliseth loving the first game, im curious to know what he thinks about the sequel, some say visually its better, but gameplaywise a step back ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Wed Oct 07, 2009 2:18 pm ----------------------------------- I bought UA2 since I also loved the first one, but quite frankly I can't play this one more than 5 minutes before getting bored. Need for Speed SHIFT, however, I've been playing a lot lately. I never liked any of the Need for Speed games after Hot Pursuit on the original PS1, but god DAMN. This is one of my favorite racing games. It's like Gran Turismo had a baby with Burnout Revenge. The game knows you're gonna be a DICK when you race, and rewards you for doing so instead of giving you demerits. You are based on Precision for things like clean overtakes, drifting, and perfect corners. For Aggression, you are given point for trading paint, dirty overtakes, and a heck of a lot of points for spinning people out or knocking them off track while you keep going forward. Definately a breath of fresh air compared to Forza and PGR. I'm on the fence about buying Operation Flashpoint. Anyone play that yet? ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Wed Oct 07, 2009 7:16 pm ----------------------------------- I bought UA2 since I also loved the first one, but quite frankly I can't play this one more than 5 minutes before getting bored. really? Im curious why.. I just beat it, and Im readly to go at it again. I played alot of the first game though, and I can say around the atlantis is where I got bored with it. I can say for sure this one is much more compelling with the newer backgrounds and havoc effects all over the place. aside from that I cant see a difference. ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Wed Oct 07, 2009 8:38 pm ----------------------------------- It might just be we're beyond the initial first year or so of releases. The original felt fresh, even though it was basically a modified Xmen Legends. This game... just felt like a Copy/Paste, with some unbalanced powers and characters. Hulk kills any boss in a few hits, and Spiderman basically clears entire rooms with his attacks. Even on Hard the game was still too easy and it just became a ~Move to next room, Kill Guys, move to next room, kill guys, move to next room, use Hulk to RT+X boss to death, talk to someone, pick a few dialog options, repeat~ That, and the camera still pissed me off from time to time. There is no reason they can't just give me FULL control of what I want to see. Might of been an option I could have changed, but Eh. Deadpool wasn't funny, I didn't care about the characters, which think... that might of had something to do with it. We already know a lot of the civil war in the Marvel universe. The first one was new, so it made it more of a "Lets see what happens next!" kind of thing. And now that I think of it... I played UA before I played the other Super Hero games, and I think that kind of makes it a little less enjoyable for me. After playing Wolverine, Incredible Hulk, and (ugh) Iron Man, it was kind of a drag to see these free flowing, building smashing badasses be confined to a few feet off the ground and only able to do so much damage. Come on... Iron Man having a hard time pulling a soldiers shield away from him? Hulk having to Falcon Punch a normal enemy 5 times for them to die, even with all available points put into that power? Meh. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Oct 13, 2009 7:04 pm ----------------------------------- Today I beat: Marvel vs Street Fighter Street Fighter II: The World Warrior Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Street Fighter Alpha Street Fighter Alpha 2 (I was wearing my Street Fighter II shirt ofcourse! :twisted:) They basically make the same game, but with better graphics and harder to make moves. The second game of the series has quite simple controls and that makes it more enjoyable. I also played some "Air Xonix" - one of the first games I ever had on the PC. ----------------------------------- FluxCapacitor Wed Oct 14, 2009 11:17 am ----------------------------------- Currently playing through [PROTOTYPE] and Rainbow Six Vegas ----------------------------------- supes2705 Thu Oct 15, 2009 8:59 am ----------------------------------- Guitar Hero Metallica ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Oct 15, 2009 6:05 pm ----------------------------------- Just beat RoboCop 3 on the NES. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Fri Oct 16, 2009 4:10 am ----------------------------------- I've been getting back into the swing of Halo 3 multiplayer but I had to drudge out the old X-plorer guitar and Guitar Hero II so my girlfriend could play something she didn't hate. ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Sun Oct 18, 2009 6:24 am ----------------------------------- Installed Halo 2 Vista. Well... actually, I installed it back in May, but just got around to playing it again. Set it up on Legendary on the 12th, and finally beat it on Legendary around midnight. Now, I can actually say that I did that. On one of the later levels, Gravemind, I realized... this is so much better than Halo 3. Having an instrumental "Blow me away" playing in the background as the Brutes and the Elites battle each other in a hectic civil war, all the while dodging blasts and running past Hunters... It was pretty epic. Multiplayer was a blast too, though there were a few cases of running into modders and hackers who try and "lol ur just not gud kid". I'm sorry, but when all you see is "BLANK sniped BLANK" 14 times on the screen, and then you get sniped while in full camo from across the map... from a location that has NO Sniper Rifle in pick up in range... yea. Kinda sucks. Still, it's a lot more fun than Halo 3's "Zap 'em & Wack 'em!" melee fests. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Oct 18, 2009 2:31 pm ----------------------------------- Finally sat down and beat "Castlevania" - awesome game, but the ending was disappointing. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Oct 21, 2009 9:34 am ----------------------------------- Last night I finished playing "Castlevania II: Simon's Quest". Up next - "Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse". ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Wed Oct 21, 2009 2:02 pm ----------------------------------- borrowed Uncharted 1 , beat it to get up to speed, I plan to get uncharted 2 soon ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Wed Oct 21, 2009 2:59 pm ----------------------------------- Dusted off Crackdown. Anyone else still have that? ----------------------------------- Archive Thu Oct 22, 2009 12:35 pm ----------------------------------- borrowed Uncharted 1 , beat it to get up to speed, I plan to get uncharted 2 soon The first game is fun, kinda tedious and repetitive but fun. Second game is brilliant. Not perfect, but almost. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Oct 22, 2009 6:27 pm ----------------------------------- Just beat "Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse". I actually found it easier than the first game, and liked how they used some of the levels of the first game here. Next - "Super Castlevania IV" ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Oct 24, 2009 6:26 pm ----------------------------------- "Super Castlevania IV" - has some nice updates, but overall rather uninspired and boring compared to the original NES trylogy. "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist" - kickass!! ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Oct 27, 2009 8:01 pm ----------------------------------- "Castlevania: Dracula X" - could've used some of the updates IV had, but overall a better game. "The Castlevania Adventure" and "Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge" on Gameboy - a bit too slow, although the twist in 2 was nice. Next up: "Castlevania Legends" on Gameboy. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Wed Oct 28, 2009 11:59 pm ----------------------------------- opt'd to get DJ hero instead of Uncharted2 (for now) having a great time. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Thu Oct 29, 2009 12:19 am ----------------------------------- Rocking through Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. ----------------------------------- Mephisto Thu Oct 29, 2009 4:37 am ----------------------------------- Rocking through Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Kicked the shit out that classic game many times. Still got an orginal copy of the PS1 game. Play "Akumajō Dracula X Chi no Rondo" (Castlevania: Rondo of Blood) for the PC Engine, that's a good one. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Oct 29, 2009 8:07 pm ----------------------------------- I played the SNES remake of that - "Dracula X" and was quite happy with it. A friend is getting "Dracula X Chronicles" (which inludes the original Rondo of Blood and the PSP remake") and I will be playing it on his PSP. I just beat "Castlevania: Legends". I think next will be either "Castlevania: Bloodlines" or 64. ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Fri Oct 30, 2009 9:47 pm ----------------------------------- Soul Reaver -Legacy of Kain Defiance I got a taste to play Soul Reaver ! Last game what I played was for PSX 8 years ago and I loved the game ,the story and whole the world there ! Now is time for PC and to play it again .Oh shame I bought the game two years ago but did not play yet .So I finally started today ! :wink: ----------------------------------- RobbieValiant Fri Oct 30, 2009 10:50 pm ----------------------------------- Recently, I played through the last Nicktoons game- mostly for ZIIIIIIIM- and I got about 25% through a rental of Batman: Arkham Asylum. On the portable front, I've played Dissidia: Final Fantasy a lot recently- beaten Story mode as Cloud and Squall, and Arcade as Cloud and Sephiroth. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Oct 31, 2009 6:13 pm ----------------------------------- I beat "Castlevania: Bloodlines" today and got through half of "Castlevania 64". ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Nov 08, 2009 7:05 am ----------------------------------- Beat Ubisoft's TMNT for PC. Quite a fun game to play, minus the annoying camera angles typical for Ubisoft. I also finally got to play "Batman: Arkham Asylum" - what a game!! I was drooling all over the keyboard when I saw the graphics. A game that's got lots of dynamics and lots of stealth too. Conroy and Hamill are just the icing on the cake! And Paul Dini's the writer, so I guess the story will take interesting turns... ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Sun Nov 08, 2009 9:04 pm ----------------------------------- Ive been playing alot of ultimate alliance 2, like the first I dont really think its that great of a game, but somehow it sucks you in anyways. I remember Draliseth loving the first game, im curious to know what he thinks about the sequel, some say visually its better, but gameplaywise a step back I downloaded the demo which is finally out and I have to say I am anti-impressed. The only decent feature about it is the fusion powers. I'd much rather play Marvel Vs. Capcom for my daily dose of Captain America ass kicking (FINAL!) justice. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Nov 09, 2009 5:19 pm ----------------------------------- MVSC kicks ass! I go to the local arcade from time to time to kick some butt.

"I'm gonna take ya for a ride!" It's still the god awful pseudo jazz soundtrack. However, the 360 does custom soundtracks so I compiled a list from all the prior Capcom fighting games for some grinding toons. Children of the Adam, Marvel, etc. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Nov 15, 2009 1:11 pm ----------------------------------- Played some "Yoshi's Cookie" and died at level 56. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Sun Nov 15, 2009 6:13 pm ----------------------------------- Played some "Yoshi's Cookie" and died at level 56.

Samus kicks ass! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Dec 14, 2009 12:46 am ----------------------------------- I do get tired of fuckin harriers and choppers coming in and shooting the fuck out of me. They should have a game mode where there are no kill streak bonuses. Also the idea that you can upgrade weapons with experience is cool. But what's not cool is getting to level 65 or whatever and having to start over. It's like getting really far in a rpg and then having everything you worked for stripped away and them saying, oh well, have fun now. Campaign mode for modern warfare 2, to me anyway, may be one of the best campaign games there has ever been. Keep in mind that I am no Call of Duty fanatic, in fact I had to be talked into playing this one. So I was skeptical at best. Long story short the campaign, other than not being to play it in co-op is one of the best games ever made. Very fun. On another note, I really don't know how they are selling those left 4 dead games. I played the second one and had to put it down after the 3rd level or so. My god is this game boring. Same thing over and over. Just freakishly fast zombies blurring towards you. really no skill involved just spray gunfire, or use the right trigger over and over for a boring melee that there is no variation of. Bad, horrible, repetitive, boring game. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Dec 18, 2009 7:41 am ----------------------------------- Finished "Metroid: Fushion" late last night. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Dec 19, 2009 6:18 pm ----------------------------------- I have a good idea let's all just post random shit and never respond to any actual decent post.

I really hated the game, though. The Metroid style just doesn't work for this franchise. I miss all the scenery, I don't want it to be all in the castle. The map was an abomination and some of the things that had to be done are impossible to figure out (but are requred if you want to fight Dracula). I started "Castlevania: Circle of Moon", which is much better so far. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Jan 05, 2010 11:47 am ----------------------------------- Beat "Metroid: Zero Mission" last night! Samus kicks ass! Just bought this a few days ago. I'm playing it on the gameboy adapter for the gamecube. Pretty damn sweet but definitely too easy. Never seen so many missile upgrades in my life haha. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Jan 05, 2010 1:31 pm ----------------------------------- Yup, there really are a lot of missle tanks throughout the game, but they sure come in handy when you reach Mother Brain. I played it on my PSP clone as I don't own any consoles besides the NES and Genesis. I always knew I'd like Metroid and I did. I liked Zero Mission better than Fushion, especially all the cinematics. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Jan 05, 2010 8:01 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, I gotta locate a copy of Fusion sometime soon. I've heard that it's the most story driven Metroid to date and I'm really interested to see how that one plays out. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Jan 07, 2010 12:55 pm ----------------------------------- The story is quite interesting and there really is a lot of attention payed to it during the game. As far as I know, it's the last in the Metroid continuity and serves as a sequel to Super Metroid. ----------------------------------- supes2705 Sun Jan 10, 2010 7:27 pm ----------------------------------- Still playing on FIFA 10, also I need to save my pennys for Mass Effect two, its on two discs and thats just for the Xbox!!! ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Jan 11, 2010 4:29 pm ----------------------------------- I played "Little Big Planet" on a friend's PSP.

One of "thee" online games, hell just games, that got me off in early adolescence. Back on the ol dial up. Must have caused my computer to crash hundreds of times and give my parents hemorrhoids of rage over the phone bill. Anyways, class based team centered online FPS. Good times, fond memories, and still a kick ass game. Problem is with any old multiplayer FPS, only the hardcore still play it. So I get my ass handed to me a lot more than I used to. All those damn l33ts with no lives.

I think it'd be really weird playing such a classic with anything but an original two button square controller. http://www.gametrailers.com/video/angry-video-screwattack/61549 ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Feb 15, 2010 6:35 am ----------------------------------- I always had the things that slide over the ends of the controller and made it more ergonomic. I beat those games, by the way. In my youth. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Feb 15, 2010 7:38 pm ----------------------------------- Beat Ninja Gaiden I, II and III :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: Thats gotta be the biggest pile of bullshit I've ever heard in my life or you are the friggin man! God like in fact! I can get to the end of Ninja Gaiden 1 but that fucking boss! I just take pleasure in knowing that I can at least beat 99% of the game. I acctually beat 'em on a NES. Carts weren't mine though. I've beaten them on emu's a lot of times. Many years ago I got the third one from a friend in kindergarden and he said he's never gotten past Act II. I beat the game that same day. To me the third is the easiest one. And the first one doesn't really get that hard until the second half of Act V... I even started playing part II again on my PSP clone today to show it to a friend of mine. Today I had a free class at school and I beat: Choujin Sentai Jetman - NES Gekisou Sentai Carranger - SNES ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon Feb 15, 2010 11:47 pm ----------------------------------- You cocky bastard :x :b ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Feb 16, 2010 7:15 am ----------------------------------- Maybe I beat 'em because they were the Japanese versions and they are a bit more balanced, but overall, still tough. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Feb 16, 2010 7:32 am ----------------------------------- Really? Never heard anything about a "balance" difference between versions. Are you able to elaborate anymore? ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Feb 16, 2010 8:41 am ----------------------------------- Well, the third one has Passwords in the Japanese version and has a bit less enemies on a level or two. Also on the second one hits take away less energy from you, but it also takes longer to kill the bosses. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Feb 16, 2010 10:10 am ----------------------------------- Hmm, nothing different on the first one? If not then I might not ever beat this damn game! :b ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Feb 16, 2010 7:27 pm ----------------------------------- I'm not very sure on the first one, I haven't played it in a while But I never found it as difficult as the second one. Jaquio is still a pain in the ass to kill. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Wed Feb 24, 2010 10:28 am ----------------------------------- Just reinstalled Quake II on my PC. I never really got a chance to play through the campaign and so far I find it really enjoyable. Something about the universe that ID created really fuels something in my imagination. The look, the feel, the sound, and of course the interactive murder! A great world that was forgotten and then raped in 2005. I've kind of got the queer idea to make a short comic based on it. Anyways. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Wed Feb 24, 2010 6:19 pm ----------------------------------- Just reinstalled Quake II on my PC. I burned all the way through it some time ago, myself. That's a good classic there, man. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Feb 25, 2010 6:58 am ----------------------------------- Played through "Felix the Cat", "Hudson's Adventure Island" and "Super Mario Bros 3" on the NES. ----------------------------------- FluxCapacitor Fri Feb 26, 2010 12:54 am ----------------------------------- Played through "Felix the Cat", "Hudson's Adventure Island" and "Super Mario Bros 3" on the NES. Mario 3, classic ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Feb 26, 2010 9:58 am ----------------------------------- Just beat bioshock, the first one, on hard and got alot of extra good achievements. Although I wouldn't even want to attempt the beat the game on hard without using a vita chamber at all. That would be fucking ridiculous, at the beginning anyway. ----------------------------------- Archive Fri Feb 26, 2010 8:27 pm ----------------------------------- Heavy Rain - PS3 Wasn't sure about it at first, but the story got me hooked. Really intense atmosphere. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Feb 27, 2010 6:39 am ----------------------------------- I tried Altered Beast - Guardian of Realms for the GBA. Not a bad remake. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Mar 04, 2010 7:47 pm ----------------------------------- I started playing "Super Metroid", but am currently stuck and I'm just sick enough to read a walkthrough...Great game, though! I also played some "Donkey Kong 3". I always liked it the best out of the DK NES games. EDIT: Just beat Super Metroid!! It was a really nice game! Too bad I don't have a Wii, Other M looks awesome! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Mar 18, 2010 2:29 am ----------------------------------- Just beat Bioshock 2! I also beat this one on hard. I can't believe it but they actually made a game worthy of the original. This game was great and very well made. On another note I tried getting into Assassins creed 2 but had the same thing happen to me that happened when I tried to play the first one. I get about 2 or 3 hours into it and completely lose interest. Something about these games just can't keep me hooked. Pretty well made, but just missing..... Something. Now it's onto modern warfare 2 and forza 3 online. If anybody's on Xbox live my name is JohnTaper. I also play Halo 3 onliine too. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Thu Mar 18, 2010 3:29 am ----------------------------------- Played some Brutal Legend. I didn't think this game was going to be that great when I first saw/heard of it. But my buddy bought it and I had to stay up to 8:00am to wake my friend up from drunken slumber to get him to work at 9. And I have to say it's a pretty enjoyable game. Despite it being kind of "dumb" and overall very easy, it's pretty awesome. Great characters, satire on metal/hair metal, writing/dialogue, and animation. A good casual game. ----------------------------------- Lethal Response Tue Mar 30, 2010 11:35 pm ----------------------------------- Playing God Of War III currently... actually, there's so many games I'm playing lately, it's extremely difficult to make time for them all. BioShock2, Dante's Inferno, Fallout III, Heavy Rain, Transformers online, Uncharted 2, etc. If only sleep weren't necessary. :ohdear: ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Wed Mar 31, 2010 3:09 am ----------------------------------- On my second playthrough for Mass EFfect 2 on 360. Fapping all the way. Infiltrator like a mofo. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Mar 31, 2010 4:50 am ----------------------------------- I'm about to delve into arkham asylum. Have a report in a day or 2. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Mar 31, 2010 12:24 pm ----------------------------------- I played some of the challenges yesterday, I'm surprised I haven't forgotten how to play it, as I didn't touch the game for 3 months. I played "Guilty Gear" and "Dante's Inferno" on a friend's PSP. Pretty good games. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sun Apr 04, 2010 3:27 pm ----------------------------------- OK, OK, I went a little ways through Arkham Asylum and I must say....... It didn't live up to the hype for me. Hit the X button over and over, and just hold A, or the trigger to run forward and jump over everything ( Very Assassins creed like) and not in a good way. I got the feeling that this was based or built in some way off of the "Thief" games. Namely Thief deadly shadows, which was an amazing game. I may be the minority here but arkham asylum is not that good to me. Now on a good note. I started playing the new Aliens Vs. Predator. Wow, is this game good so far. I haven't even played the multiplayer at all, but the campaign is Fabulous. Almost like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1pB8bq9wXw ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon Apr 05, 2010 5:19 am ----------------------------------- Although the graphics are amazing I've heard from multiple people that this game isn't very good. Just pretty. And from the gameplay footage I've seen it looks to me like the substance has run out of the series. Multiplayer might be a redeeming factor though. But then again, I haven't played a single second of this game. So there could quite possibly be something in there that would keep me fully entertained. Yep. ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Mon Apr 05, 2010 4:20 pm ----------------------------------- OK, OK, I went a little ways through Arkham Asylum and I must say....... It didn't live up to the hype for me. Hit the X button over and over, and just hold A, or the trigger to run forward and jump over everything ( Very Assassins creed like) and not in a good way. Play it on hard. Fight with style. To quoth Michael Keaton in Batman Returns, "Things change." There's no way AVP should rock your taco harder than Batman. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Apr 05, 2010 5:00 pm ----------------------------------- I don't have to play arkham asylum on hard to know that I didn't care for it that much. I don't like the fighting system, I realize you can upgrade your moves and so forth throughout the game and I'm not saying it's not well made or anything, I just don't really like it. For anybody who likes Arkham I recommend you try to find a copy of Thief - Deadly Shadows for original X box, (It's probably backwards compatible) made by the same people, or company Eidos. I think it blows Arkham Asylum out of the water, and it's the same type of gameplay. Now onto Alien Vs. Predator. Deus don't rely on whoevers word or mine for that matter. All I can say is check this game out. When I first saw Sega on the game cover I had heavy doubts about the quality of gameplay and accuracy, and overall feel for a first person shooter/melee game made by them. You get 3 completely different styles of a first person game in this 1 package. Three completely different ways to play, and different goals. I think this game performs very well. The controls work smoothly and do what you want them to do. It does look amazing, but that is secondary to the gameplay. When you are the predator you can go up to all kinds of awesome vantage points and set traps, lure, or just take out opponents from above. I'm not gonna go into a longer winded post on this. I just recommend check out AvP. It's good in my book. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Apr 05, 2010 8:26 pm ----------------------------------- Demise, since I just got the old XBox I might try and find Thief. I just played Halo 2 - nice game so far, but it's a pain in the ass to play a FPS without a mouse XD ----------------------------------- Archive Mon Apr 05, 2010 8:34 pm ----------------------------------- I didn't care much for "Arkham Asylum" either. I understand that it is a good game and all that but, like RoboDemise, it just didn't click with me and i stopped playing early on and never returned to it. Other titles took over. I'm not a big Batman fan so perhaps that has something to do with it. Anyway, at the moment I'm playing "God of War3" and trying to beat it on hard. It isn't going very well. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Apr 05, 2010 9:10 pm ----------------------------------- As a huge Batman fan the main problem I had with AA were the enemies...I mean, don't tell me every single prisoner has shaved hair and muscles like that...the crazies from the asylum were a lot of fun though. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Apr 05, 2010 9:46 pm ----------------------------------- I wish I had a PS3. I know that god of war 3 has to be good. The first 2 were amazing. Definately my next electronic purchase will be a PS3. It's a win win with the Blu Ray player.

Also can you browse the internet from it without modification? ----------------------------------- Archive Mon Apr 05, 2010 10:17 pm ----------------------------------- anybody know if the online gaming is free on PS3?

I think I enjoy it more than the first two, as the boss battles don't seem so far part... makes it I dunno', all the more epic. View this if you don't mind a spoiler: (They've used it in advertisments) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-cTlNHEL_A Yes, it's that good. :twisted: ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Apr 05, 2010 11:02 pm ----------------------------------- Ummmmmm....... Words can not describe how awesome that head being torn off was. I think I need a clean pair of shorts. Thanks for the info everyone. Oh, one last thing. Are you gonna upload the peter weller part, or I guess probably not, copyright and all. Well Is his part worth it? Is it any good? ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon Apr 05, 2010 11:56 pm ----------------------------------- I just recommend check out AvP. It's good in my book. I figured that if it was exactly the same as the other two installments on the PC with just updated graphics, I don't see how it wouldn't be an awesome shorts messing game. And GOW3, I must say that they have achieved a land mark in video game design and production and that it does have amazing visuals. But in my truthful opinion, I can definitely see that they've run out of ideas with the series. Just the same repetitive tasks over and over and over again. Personally I think they concentrated more on presentation this time around rather than actual improvements in the game play. Granted I think GOW2 was made by different people than the first, and GOW3 was made by different people than the second. That or at least the guy who originally created the game has been absent from the two sequels. And it shows in my opinion. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Apr 08, 2010 12:07 pm ----------------------------------- I finally tried a Wii game!! Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight - not a bad game, unless you count the graphics. Also I think it would've been better if the Final Vents were something like the Destroy moves in Guilty Gear, not just a basic special. EDIT: Just got "Ninja Gaiden" for the XBox in the mail. Man, I tried for 5 minutes and I'm already hooked!! ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun May 09, 2010 3:20 pm ----------------------------------- Deus, I know you're probably not going to believe this, but...I beat Ninja Gaiden II on the NES again...with just 1 continue (I died while fighting Ashtar on Act V)...I couldn't believe it either, I just started it and before I knew it I had beaten it... I also finally beat "Darkwing Duck" for the NES. I had reached the last boss many years ago, but couldn't beat him. He was a piece of cake this time. I also played some X-Box games: "Godzilla: Save the Earth" - Awesome, but should've been just a bit faster. Also the story mode is pretty weak. "Batman: Vengeance" - MUCH better than the PC version. "Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu" - after years of wanting to play it, I wasn't disappointed. It's a pretty cool beat 'em up. "Batman: Dark Tomorrow"...yeah...pretty much everything besides the cut-scenes sucks...it's more like a Spider-Man game... ----------------------------------- Swedish Robot Sun May 09, 2010 7:11 pm ----------------------------------- :ohdear: ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon May 10, 2010 8:28 am ----------------------------------- *Act of God* I've actually never played the second or third ones. Actually, scratch that. I've played a little bit of them on that 3 pack SNES cartridge. It wasn't that long ago but I can't remember anything from them. NG on the Xbox is pretty kick ass as well. I still have to play the second one though. That one looks fuckin insane. Anyways, I haven't played any video games for a good while. But just recently I went trolling through a flea market and a few second hand stores and came out with Echo the Dolphin for the Genesis and MegaMan X for the SNES. I'm gonna plug everything in tonight and get some quality time with my wooden Cathode Ray television. (Is it wrong to assume I'm the only one who knows what "AquaDag" is?:roll: ) Also picked up an NES Satellite for 3 bucks. http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o199/138socal/Satellite.jpg I never even knew this thing existed. But basically it's a device that you can plug up to four controllers into and play your NES from across the room. Completely WIRELESS. Problem is, after I buy it I find out that it needs an infra red receiver (the smaller thing on the right side of the picture) to plug into the actual console itself. So that sucks. But I just found someone on ebay selling just the receiver for seven bucks. So all is not lost. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon May 10, 2010 11:20 am ----------------------------------- Nice score with the NES sattelite and the games. Ecco is a must-have! Ninja Gaiden on the X-Box absolutely kicks my ass. I'm at chapter 5 and those damn black ninjas...I managed to reach the boss, but only once. Now I keep dying when fighting the Fiends. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu May 20, 2010 1:25 pm ----------------------------------- I'm a few hours into Red Dead Redemption and it is shaping up to be a masterpiece. It pretty much plays like Grand theft auto, except way more in depth and alot less driving. be careful riding your horse around people fast cause if you trample them they will die and you will be frowned upon... Found this out the hard way. This is the first game, or any media for that matter (including movies) I've seen that has lightning strike and then a variable amount of time passes before you hear the thunder... And it sounds and looks amazing. Usually movies and games just have the thunder noise as the lightning strikes with no pause between seeing and hearing, but Red Dead does this quite nicely. My only problem with this game so far is the save system. If anybody has played Grand Theft, it's exactly the same. Autosaving, and if you want to save yourself you have to go find a bed and sleep in it. I always hated that autosave system they had and I hate having to go to a bed... But that aside it looks and plays amazingly. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu May 20, 2010 1:58 pm ----------------------------------- I am planning to get the first Red Dead for the XBox. I played "Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu" last night. Not nearly as good as "Batman: Vengeance", but still a nice beat-em-up. The only thing I hate is that you gotta unlock most of the moves, which makes it a bit boring in the beginning. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon May 24, 2010 5:17 am ----------------------------------- I might go back and play red dead revolver again too. The ending to redemption has left me with mixed feelings. Game was very easy overall, but still real good nonetheless. I think some things could have been a little more in depth, especially at the end, with you owning a ranch there is alot of things you would think you can do... But it just pretty much ends. ----------------------------------- RoboSabs Mon May 24, 2010 5:26 am ----------------------------------- For me im playing Serious Sam HD on Steam, the original was pretty neat however its good to see some quality graphics and bug fixes done. CAn't wait for Half-life 2 episode 3... The other game Age of Empires 1 & 2 brings back some good times. Sabs ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Jun 01, 2010 9:43 am ----------------------------------- Is it just me, or do Current-Gen games just look prettier and shinier rather than actually push the envelope of the gaming experience? ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Tue Jun 01, 2010 4:24 pm ----------------------------------- Nope, it ain't just you. That seems to be how it is. Or for the most part anyway. :roll: Of course I'm a poor bastard, but that aside, on lazy days I would in many cases still play old-ass N64 titles and 10-year old PC games, or even archaic 8- and 16-bit games that are as old as me. Why? Well, it ain't because the graphics look tits. :b ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Jun 01, 2010 8:32 pm ----------------------------------- Is it just me, or do Current-Gen games just look prettier and shinier rather than actually push the envelope of the gaming experience? I think that is true to a certain extent, but it is also a blanket statement as well. Plus, you can't actually think that all games of old consoles pushed any type of gaming experience envelope. Which is why there are 5,000 side scrolling games indistinguishable from one another. I think games are the same as they always have been, some good, some pretty, some not pretty, some not good. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Wed Jun 02, 2010 2:25 am ----------------------------------- That is all true, but there was less room to play with back in the day. So any creativity shot a game straight to the top. Now a days, it's the same "last decade" way of thinking that is keeping the creative minds of today stunted in outdated ways of programming video games. God of War 3? Beautiful game ascetically, but it offered nothing new to the gene pool of popular interactive gaming experiences. There is still room to blow out the minds of the average gaming consumer. With bullshit like the Wii trying to make things easier and more mainstream, developers need to open their small minds to the possibilities of technology. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Jun 02, 2010 7:40 am ----------------------------------- A great example of amazing gameplay combined with an insane amount of depth and character development is The Elder scrolls IV, Oblivion. Trailing slightly behind it is fallout 3. Even more difficult is the elder scrolls 3 Morrowind on original xbox. There are no other games that even come close to these games in my opinion. Red dead redemption is also very fun and worth playing. Banjo Kazooie was my favorite game on N64 and the new banjo game that came out on 360 is just as innovative and amazing. Might be geared towards kids, but I have yet to find a more challenging or well made game as Banjo Kazooie nuts and bolts on 360. It really gets back to what a video game should be in my opinion. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Jun 03, 2010 7:06 am ----------------------------------- Finally beat "Ninja Gaiden" for the X-Box. Chapter 15 was a pain in the ass, I don't even know how I got a "Master Ninja" rating for it. Gotta beat it again tough, as I only found 43 out of the 50 Golden Scarabs. Good thing it remembers which ones I got. EDIT 24.06. - Just beat "Batman Begins" for the X-Box. Not bad, but a bit too short. I expected it to be way more stealth and thank-god I was wrong! The Batmobile levels were awesome! ----------------------------------- Officer Harvey Sat Jun 26, 2010 8:33 am ----------------------------------- beat the Marine storyline for Aliens vs. Predator (2010). Really looking forward to the Colonial Marines game due out sometime this year. :D ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Jun 26, 2010 8:36 pm ----------------------------------- I tried to play "Batman: Dark Tomorrow", but it really is as bad as everyone says. The camera is so shitty I stopped playing on Level 3 and won't be coming back to it anytime soon. Instead, I started "Dinotopia: The Sunstone Odyssey" and although it doesn't have the best graphics it's a pretty neat and relaxing game to play. ----------------------------------- Officer Harvey Sun Jun 27, 2010 5:05 am ----------------------------------- I tried to play "Batman: Dark Tomorrow", but it really is as bad as everyone says.

Two-Face will apparently be the villain next time around, and I will buy not just because ol' Harvey Dent is my favorite Batman character, but if there is a level I can play as him...or them...depending on your perception. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Jul 05, 2010 11:43 am ----------------------------------- I beat a ton of NES games while at my grandparents': Contra, Super C, Contra Force, Kick Master, The Punisher, Over Horizon (which I've had for years and only now I found out that if you reset the game a lot of times, it will play a totally different version with 95% of the sprites altered) and played a lot of puzzle games too. ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Tue Sep 14, 2010 5:59 pm ----------------------------------- Tomb Raider Anniversary ! I got the game from my boyfriend a few years ago but I never finished and never was playing more than to the big dinosaur in the first part. I am really glad I have a time for a PC game finally ! Oh my.. How long I did not play a game ?, yaer, two years ?! Something between that ..well except the C&C Tiberium wars with my boyfriend from time to time ! :) ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Sep 15, 2010 11:36 am ----------------------------------- I was on an X-Box rampage this summer: TMNT 3: Mutant Nightmare Teen Titans 007: Nightfire Marvel vs Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes (Haven't unlocked everything yet, though) Capcom Fighting Evolution Currently playing "Ferrari Grand Prix Challenge" on NES. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Wed Sep 15, 2010 5:19 pm ----------------------------------- 007: Nightfire, what a worthless waste. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Sep 15, 2010 7:21 pm ----------------------------------- Dominated dead rising again. Wanting to play the second one real bad. Can't wait for it. Also been going back through banjo kazooie nuts and bolts again. I still say that this is one of the funnest games to be made as of late. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Sep 16, 2010 2:30 pm ----------------------------------- 007: Nightfire, what a worthless waste. Why? I though the game was pretty neat. Some years ago I tried the PC version at a friend's house and didn't like it at all, but the Xbox version has waaaaay more levels (and cool ones too). I didn't care that much for the story, but overall I really liked the game and it proved to me that it's not impossible to play an FPS on a console. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Thu Sep 16, 2010 4:12 pm ----------------------------------- Well, since you have the Xbox version, it probably would be considerably better. I have heard the console versions were better in some ways, they certainly had better stuff, (the chase levels, etc), but the game is a horrendous mess on PC. I tried it once, never to play it again. But you got lucky I guess. :b ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Sep 17, 2010 12:19 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, I felt absolutely the same way about the PC version. But the friend who gave me the console for free, along with some games recommended it to me, so I decided to give it another shot. The chase/driving levels were certainly a lot of fun :) Next, I think I'm gonna start "Red Dead Revolver" - it looks really good! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sun Oct 03, 2010 1:22 pm ----------------------------------- Just played a couple levels of the RoboCop 2 arcade game and I must say it is one of the best arcade games I've played. It plays well, it looks good, and it is just pretty damn fun. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Sun Oct 03, 2010 9:00 pm ----------------------------------- I've yet to fully try the RoboCop Arcade games myself, but I've heard they're both very good, unlike practically almost all of the console games. ----------------------------------- Archive Fri Oct 08, 2010 8:03 pm ----------------------------------- Just played a couple levels of the RoboCop 2 arcade game and I must say it is one of the best arcade games I've played. It plays well, it looks good, and it is just pretty damn fun. Robo2 is great, although i probably rank the first one higher. If you haven't already try the "Punisher" arcade game by Capcom. A whole bunch of fun and probably my favorite arcade game at the moment. I also like "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs" and "Alien VS Predator", also by Capcom. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Oct 08, 2010 8:30 pm ----------------------------------- I'll have to check those out Archive.

Then he's going to help me mod it much like Demise's Xbox. Gonna be my new entertainment/social life now that I work all the god damn time and sleep the remainder of our linear perception of past, present, future. It plays music, games, can go on the internet, and I don't have to pay out the ass or feel like a douche for buying an iphone. Amongst other things. I feel good about this. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Nov 04, 2010 1:27 am ----------------------------------- Hell yeah. At least now when you cry yourself to sleep you can have cool software to do it to. Welcome to the club man. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Thu Nov 04, 2010 6:58 am ----------------------------------- Will a PSP teach me to love Demise? Because it's either this or a child. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Nov 04, 2010 7:18 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, it will. You will absolutely love whiskey. ----------------------------------- Wearfare Wed Nov 17, 2010 4:46 pm ----------------------------------- I've been hearing a bunch of news about the Kinect for the Xbox 360...I mean, granted, it looks very hi-tech and we could probably reach the highest tier or point in video gaming when your body controls the game. But to be honest, it kind of reminds me when I play on the Nintendo Wii...except that console's motion sensing is a hell of a lot better than what Microsoft are pulling out of their ass. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Wed Nov 17, 2010 5:10 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, I love how every corporation or business makes money by copying the ideas of their competitors and just renaming them. Like, was the Wii that big of a threat that Sony and Microsoft had to develop something similar? Granted I think they'll both do it better and take it to further heights in terms of technology and content. Hell, I can't even think of one person I know that owns a Wii. And that makes me happy. Btw, the PSP I was gonna buy has a fucked mother board so I'll have to find one either online or at a GameStop with the right specs for modification. Which is going to be a bitch. Still stoked on it though. Birthday's coming up in a few days so hopefully I'll snag some cash. ----------------------------------- Wearfare Wed Nov 17, 2010 7:46 pm ----------------------------------- And on another note, what's so great about the PlayStation Move? It looks like a PS3 vamped up version of the Nintendo Wii controller with some magic, glowing, coloured ball on top...now I don't find that impressive. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Nov 18, 2010 12:51 am ----------------------------------- Why not mod the original xbox? Don't you have one? Around these parts it runs ya' 40 bones. I haven't played either of the motion fuck stuff for PS3 or 360. I played a wii at random people's houses for minutes each time and it seemed to me that that is about as much as I really want to play it. If I wanna play a game I like to sit there and relax, have a smoke and a drink, chill. If I wanna throw a baseball or some shit I'll go throw a god damn baseball. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Nov 23, 2010 3:36 am ----------------------------------- currently browsing the the archive on a psp. really overtly complicated. no games yet but i'm gonna have a coworker mod it for me. yeah, forum posting ain't really fun on this thing. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Fri Dec 03, 2010 6:52 pm ----------------------------------- Journey to Silius. This and Metal Storm are my new favorite games. Old NES greatness. Great music, graphics, and it's challenging. I'm rediscovering the journey of experiencing a great NES game. Haven't felt this since I was a kid. Check this shit out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkWYvENgxwA&feature=related If you have any sort of emulator, give these ones a try. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Dec 04, 2010 12:29 am ----------------------------------- I'll have to give those a try. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Dec 05, 2010 7:10 pm ----------------------------------- I modded my original X-Box a few months ago... Cost me around 25 bucks, but was totally worth it! Currently playing "Sonic Riders" (I got it from a friend a few days ago) - not bad at all, though the Babylon Garden track is waaaaaaaaaay to difficult and I still can't beat it in Story Mode. Also I'm finally able to play "Castlevania: Rondo of Blood" on the X-Box (I previously had only played it on a friend's PSP) and I can say that it's easly one of the best titles in the series. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Apr 16, 2011 4:57 pm ----------------------------------- Just dominated Castlevania: aria of sorrow for the game boy advance on my modded xbox. Brilliant game. It was the first time I played it but after I started I had to play all the way through. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Apr 21, 2011 2:05 am ----------------------------------- Been working on portal 2. The multiplayer is amazing. Dealing with 4 portals is crazy. Definitely a great game. Course I knew it would be after playing through the first one. If you haven't played portal or portal 2 I highly recommend them both. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon May 02, 2011 8:36 am ----------------------------------- Yeah, I don't know the specs of Portal 2 what so ever, but it looks almost important as air. Is it just me or does Valve really need to start making actual films? Fawk, I caught a cut scene from the first Left 4 Dead and I have to admit it was a brilliant piece of writing. The Portal 2 trailers looked amazing too. Still haven't played it yet. As for me? I found a hard copy of Ninja Gaiden 2 for the NES and have been chipping away at it. That and Mega Man 2. I'm sorry fellow adults, but I'll never get tired of the sight and sounds of a Nintendo Entertainment System. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon May 02, 2011 12:25 pm ----------------------------------- As for me? I found a hard copy of Ninja Gaiden 2 for the NES and have been chipping away at it. That and Mega Man 2. I'm sorry fellow adults, but I'll never get tired of the sight and sounds of a Nintendo Entertainment System. NG 2 is my favourite of the series. Too bad it's the only one I own as I only have Famicoms, instead of NESes. I once beat it without using any of the continues. As for me - this weeked I beat Jungle Book and Tale Spin on Genesis and Tiny Toon Adventures on GameBoy. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon May 02, 2011 4:50 pm ----------------------------------- Just completed Infamous seeing as the new one is out next month. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed May 18, 2011 5:03 am ----------------------------------- Started playing some james pond and the intro song seemed eerily familiar. I urge you to listen to this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOFvxcfDEJo ----------------------------------- Josh Wed May 18, 2011 11:50 am ----------------------------------- You know Demise, I never picked up on that. I'm currently jumping between Mortal Kombat and Colin McRae: Dirt 2. ----------------------------------- Archive Wed May 18, 2011 5:49 pm ----------------------------------- Started playing some james pond and the intro song seemed eerily familiar. I urge you to listen to this. Well the game is pretty blatantly being influenced by RoboCop. The cover image and the undertitle "RoboCod" for starters. They did a pretty good job of emulating the Robo theme without it actually being THE theme though. ----------------------------------- Zentron Wed May 18, 2011 9:05 pm ----------------------------------- I recently just finished Need for Speed: Most Wanted. The last task really took me an age to do... the only thing is, now it's all over, there is no need for me to go through it again, which is not something I like :( ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu May 19, 2011 6:23 am ----------------------------------- Well the game is pretty blatantly being influenced by RoboCop. The cover image and the undertitle "RoboCod" for starters. They did a pretty good job of emulating the Robo theme without it actually being THE theme though. Archive I only want to add that a friend of mine who I loaned the RoboCop movie to one time told me about this game. He had just got a modded xbox like I have and was randomly checking out games and he texted to me in the middle of the night that find about the theme song being in that game . I thought it was awesome so it is important to me. He picked up the Robo theme song from a random game a few months after I had loaned him the movie. So in fact I found out about this game and music by exposing a friend of mine to RoboCop and I think that is just very cool. ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Mon May 23, 2011 6:30 pm ----------------------------------- Finally ! After a year and after my last long adventure with Lara Croft, I started S.T.A.L.K.E.R Call of Pripyat. I started to play this also for reason that me and my boyfriend are planning trip to Chernobyľ and to Pripyať. But back to game. I never played before, but I love that. I like the way of playing. Much of time, gaining of artefacts, trading and a great amosphere. Oh how I could not to know this series sooner ? :roll: ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jun 03, 2011 7:40 am ----------------------------------- I beat a bunch of old-school gamesa few weeks back, while at my grandparents - TMNT 1-4 on NES, Moonwalker, X-Men 2, Buster's Hidden Treasure and World of Illussion on Genesis. Yesterday I finished playing "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" on NDS. I've also been playing MK: Armageddon on the X-Box from time to time. ----------------------------------- Zentron Fri Jun 03, 2011 10:23 pm ----------------------------------- Yesterday I finished playing "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" on NDS.Is the game better than the show? What's the gameplay like? ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Jun 05, 2011 1:23 pm ----------------------------------- Let me start off by saying that I absolutely LOVE the show! As for the game itself - it's pretty neat! One of the better side-scrolling beat 'em ups out there, though a bit too easy (it's clearly targeted at a younger audience). Basically, at each stage Batman teams up with a different DC hero and the player can switch between the two characters at any given time. Each character has unique weapons, attacks and abilities, making it mandatory to switch characters at some point in the level. Batman's weapons and moves are upgradable and there's even an alternative suit for him to be unlocked. He can also wall-jump like in the first NES game, which I'm really happy with (that was my very first video-game :) ) The gameplay changes from time to time, like when you drive the Batboat or when Batman gets turned into an Ape by Gorilla Grodd. Also featured are voice clips from the series, trophies, challenges and even a great throwback to the 1966 movie :) If the game gets too difficult (yeah, right :D) also included is the Bat-Mite boost, which makes the player invincible and adds platforms that make some jumps easier. This can be toggled on and off in the Pause menu. Overall, I'd recommend the game if you like beat 'em ups or the show. The game captures it's spirit quite well and I'd give it 8 or 9 out of 10, as it's a bit short. Yesterday me and a friend had a multiplayer session of "Contra 4". God, I love this game!! I also played the demo of "Duke Nukem Forever"... let's just say that if the game will really be like this, it doesn't deserve to be "Duke Nukem Forever". It's got to be something better. ----------------------------------- Zentron Sun Jun 05, 2011 6:22 pm ----------------------------------- I liked the novelty of the shows design, but that can only sustain my interest for a limited time, I found the rest of the show got real stale, real too soon..... and I was really looking forward to a new Batman series too :( Oh well, roll on the game :D *Post 900* ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Sat Jun 18, 2011 11:11 am ----------------------------------- Last two games I played were Duke Nukem Forever and Red Faction Armageddon. Personally, I really didn't care for either to be honest. Duke Nukem Forever really missed the mark with me. Now given this game took three companies and fourteen years to make, I just wasn't at all impressed. To me it looks and plays like a PS2 title. The graphics are only okay, and the controls are pretty sluggish and off. The story is nothing to elaborate, and every single comment or things aside from killing bad guys, is just a sex joke or reference/rip off of something popular. I got bored of it really quickly. I could never justify anyone paying the full sixty dollar price for that. Red Faction Armageddon was a bit of a better experience, but it still left a bad taste in my mouth. Especially when compared to the previous Red Faction title: Guerrilla, which I loved. They dropped the open world setting from that game, and made everything linear, where you can only go one path. The story is sort of a continuation, but not really. It kind of just goes off on It's own, and isn't very attention gabbing. There's some fairly newer and cool weapons at your disposal, but the combat leaves a lot to be desired. After a while, it quickly got tedious for me. Most of the enemies are weird bugs and bug like humanoids, and most encounters just involve you fighting wave after wave of them all at once until you can find and destroy their various spawn points. Bottom line, whether you were a fan of either titles earlier installments or not. Definitely rent both games before you jump the shark and buy them right away. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jun 19, 2011 12:25 am ----------------------------------- I ought to break a broom handle off in your ass. Ahem. Beaten Infamous 2 which I enjoyed the hell out of, and shall move on to Portal 2. The best part is the missus want's to play some co-op. Best let her out of the kitchen then... ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Sun Jun 19, 2011 5:21 am ----------------------------------- I ought to break a broom handle off in your ass. Ahem. I hope you're just joking around dude. I'm not trying to annoy or piss off anyone. I just always voice my opinions towards things openly. I'm not saying everyone will dislike certain games. I was just giving my two cents. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jun 19, 2011 9:55 pm ----------------------------------- I ought to break a broom handle off in your ass. Ahem. I hope you're just joking around dude. I'm not trying to annoy or piss off anyone. I just always voice my opinions towards things openly. I'm not saying everyone will dislike certain games.

Sarcasm is hard to convey over the net. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Mon Jun 20, 2011 3:32 am ----------------------------------- I ought to break a broom handle off in your ass. Ahem. I hope you're just joking around dude. I'm not trying to annoy or piss off anyone. I just always voice my opinions towards things openly. I'm not saying everyone will dislike certain games. I was just giving my two cents. Sarcasm is hard to convey over the net. I kind of figured you were being sarcastic, but indeed it is hard to tell if someone is serious or sarcastic over the net. No biggie. The next game I plan on playing at some point is Infamous 2. It's hit or miss whether I'll like it or not, although I wasn't a big fan of the first installment. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jun 20, 2011 3:47 pm ----------------------------------- The second is more of the same but refined. I loved it, it has more variety and New Marais is better than Empire City. Give it a rent at least. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Mon Jun 27, 2011 12:16 pm ----------------------------------- I played a decent bit of Infamous 2, and as I predicted, I didn't fall in love with the game. But overall, I did think it was alright, and I certainly liked it more than the first one. ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Aug 11, 2011 12:57 am ----------------------------------- Duke Nukem Forever. Flawed, yes. Fun, yes. Girlfriend complaining about the "content", yes. Happy days... ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Thu Aug 11, 2011 3:27 am ----------------------------------- Definitely flawed. The gameplay and controls for that play like a bad PS2 title and the graphics aren't much better. I'm not really a fan of the character or series in general, so I got bored with it really quickly. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Aug 11, 2011 8:10 am ----------------------------------- DNF was just NOT worth the wait. It feels like every other generic shooter out there with Duke inserted last minute. Did we really need the Halo-style life bar? No. Could Duke carry all his weapons before - yes! Can he now? No! I didn't really care about the graphic, I just wanted to have fun with this game. And I didn't. They took that away. I'll stick with Duke 3D and Manhattan Project, thank you! I beat a bunch of NDS games recently: - Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword, which was great!! A bit too easy for a NG title, but still great! -Legend of Kage 2, I'd never thought they'd make a sequel to Legend of Kage. While it varies a bit from the first game, it's a solid title to kill a couple of hours and does have some replay value, due to alternative characters, unlockables and stuff. I loved that they inserted the classic theme in one of the levels. Currently playing two games - "Lego: Batman - the Videogame" on NDS, which is darn impressive for a portable, I'd say. And is quite fun too. The other one is "Dinosaur King" - now, I've never been into Pokemon-like stuff, but the TV show makes me laugh my ass of, so I decided to give it a try. Besides the waaay too many random battles it's not bad at all. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:07 pm ----------------------------------- You know, I never played Duke Nukem Forever (I sold my Xbox 360 months ago) but I did stumble across a fun online minigame promoting DNF...Duke Nudem! Yeah, Duke Nudem. Fun for the whole family! ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Aug 11, 2011 10:59 pm ----------------------------------- I like it for what it is. It feels like a game from 2000. To be honest I doubt if Gearbox did much to it other than add the regen health and ship it out. ----------------------------------- Zentron Thu Aug 11, 2011 11:28 pm ----------------------------------- Just completed Fighters MegaMix on the SEGA Saturn, in Expert Mode, 3 rounds per match, no time limit! ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Tue Aug 23, 2011 12:43 pm ----------------------------------- Still been playing nothing but Fallout New Vegas. Currently have two games going at the same time. ----------------------------------- Josh Fri Aug 26, 2011 12:00 am ----------------------------------- Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I like it. A lot. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Oct 09, 2011 1:47 am ----------------------------------- Driver: San Francisco, Just Cause 2 and Rage since my last entry. Christ, you'd think I'm the only one who plays video games around here... ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Oct 09, 2011 8:06 am ----------------------------------- Tried "The Binding of Isaac" at a friend's place last night. Pretty sick game... addicting too, not to mention difficult. ----------------------------------- cobrahunter187 Tue Oct 11, 2011 10:58 pm ----------------------------------- I'm in a like a boss mood, games I beat the crap of without getting killed : Castlevania 1 thru 6 robocop 1&2 nes gonna post videos over youtube tomorrow if you guys wanna check that out ----------------------------------- Zentron Tue Oct 11, 2011 11:57 pm ----------------------------------- Just finished losing on Virtua Fighter 5 for the X360 ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Oct 29, 2011 12:16 am ----------------------------------- I have just completed Batman: Arkham City. I enjoyed it. It wasn't as focused as Arkham Asylum but there were neat gameplay improvements which added to it. The one thing I don't understand is why there are so many people raving about the ending. It came out of nowhere and was predictable. Still, what's next? Batman: Gotham City? ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Oct 29, 2011 11:20 am ----------------------------------- Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na Battlefield! See what I did? ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sat Oct 29, 2011 3:58 pm ----------------------------------- It came out of nowhere and was predictable. Are you sitting too close to the TV again? ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Nov 05, 2011 12:26 am ----------------------------------- Just beat Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception. Man was I dissapointed. The story wasn't up to much in the first two games, but this one made the first two look like grand epic complex character driven masterpieces. Also the aiming is way off. Input lag and auto aim make it worse, but so does the fact that up down left and right move at one speed but diagonals move slower, completely throwing you off. The melee combat is also lacking. It's repetative and bare bones. Look at the last two Batman games. While the combat is not complex it is beautifully animated. Considering the animations are top notch in the Uncharted series I expected more. Last note, there were a bunch of physics and animation glitches just to top it off. While there were good points it somehow ended up worse than a two year old game and as it stands it is the worst of the three. If number two was a nine and number one an eight, number three is a six. ----------------------------------- TheOldManOCP Sat Nov 05, 2011 12:50 am ----------------------------------- I just finally got around to working my way through BioShock 2. And I still need to finish Fallout: New Vegas, but who has the time? ----------------------------------- meathead316 Sat Nov 05, 2011 5:21 pm ----------------------------------- for me its all about gettin mw3 at midnight on monday nite :) arkham city and battlefield from santa. also y has noone mentoned gta v? trailer looks beast, looks like its gonna be san andreas with beasty graphics ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Nov 07, 2011 6:26 pm ----------------------------------- Currently playing "Spider-man: Shattered Dimensions" on my NDS.

I'll try and throw you an invite and we can party up. I just hope your shooting is as good as your talking. PS: Don't shoot me... ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Dec 02, 2011 2:34 pm ----------------------------------- SKYRIM. I have been addicted to it lately. It is amazing even though it has been watered down skill wise from previous elder scrolls games. No more acrobatics, weapon and armor repair, or speed leveling. That disappoints me but the game is still amazing. ----------------------------------- Sean_001 Fri Dec 02, 2011 3:51 pm ----------------------------------- Rented Dead Island, Finally. Got to play it for one evening. Awesome game. Next morning... BAMM!!! Close Tray error... FFffffffFFffuuuUUUUU! Been out of commission for 5 days now. ----------------------------------- Josh Fri Dec 02, 2011 8:25 pm ----------------------------------- Been out of commission for 5 days now. You poor bastard. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Dec 07, 2011 4:49 pm ----------------------------------- Went to my granparents' place last weeked and finally beat "Ecco II: The Tides of Time". The first two Ecco the Dolphin games are among the best games ever made, hands down! ----------------------------------- Josh Fri Jan 06, 2012 12:42 pm ----------------------------------- I have been working my way through the games I got for Christmas. I've recently beaten Crysis 2, Assassin's Creed: Revelations and Dead To Rights: Retribution. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jan 06, 2012 7:28 pm ----------------------------------- I decided to finally plow through the Castlevania games I haven't beaten yet. I beat "Portrait of Ruin" and "Order of Eclessia" and am currently playing "Aria of Sorrow" :) ----------------------------------- DoktorNo Fri Jan 06, 2012 10:01 pm ----------------------------------- Indie game "Defcon". But I'm still a beginner and got nuked every time... Also I am downloading "Team Fortress 2" from Steam, and can't wait to play... :) ----------------------------------- Lexington Fri Jan 20, 2012 12:48 pm ----------------------------------- I fired up Resident Evil 2 in response to the Resident Evil 6 trailer. Not been in a gaming mood for a while, yet much cool stuff is waiting. I still have Mass Effect 2 in the shrink wrap and AC Revelations to play. . . ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Fri Jan 20, 2012 5:38 pm ----------------------------------- Haven't picked up a game for quite some time now. But lately, I've been getting these intense urges to hook up the N64 and the Genesis. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Jan 20, 2012 7:51 pm ----------------------------------- Got about 160 hours in Skyrim now. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Fri Jan 20, 2012 8:11 pm ----------------------------------- When do you find the time to masturbate?! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Jan 20, 2012 8:18 pm ----------------------------------- Funny thihg is I don't even own the game or a system to play it on. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Jan 21, 2012 7:14 pm ----------------------------------- Haven't picked up a game for quite some time now. But lately, I've been getting these intense urges to hook up the N64 and the Genesis. That's the spirit!! I've got my NES, Genesis and Atari 2600 at my grandparents' and never spend a boring night :) Finished "Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow" last night - with 3 different endings. Started the sequel - "Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow" (get it? Castlevania DS... can't believe they did that with so many DS games...). It's good so far. These Metroid-style Castlevania games are starting to really grow on me. And speaking of Metroid - I bought a dirt cheap boxed "Metroid: Zero Mission" on eBay, but had to send it to my aunt in the UK as the seller didn't ship abroad. I can't wait to play this thing again, and it will be so great to finally own one of my favourite games!! ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sat Jan 21, 2012 9:31 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah it's a damn shame because all I own are old school systems. Like, all of them. Save for a PS1/2. I just rarely have time to play them and when I do, I'm so fucking lazy. Which sucks because I actually never stop buying the games. "Hey look! Super C for the NES! Fuckin classic! I totally can't let this pass me by!" One Month later: "Perhaps I should finally pop that thing in...." ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Jan 21, 2012 9:45 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah it's a damn shame because all I own are old school systems.

The newest consoles I own are the NDS (Lite, got it second hand at a really good price) and the X-Box (which was second hand as well, a gift from my best friend)... Wait... come to think of it, ALL of my consoles are second hand... I really love playing old school games. Maybe it's because I wasn't good enough to beat them when I was younger, or maybe it's because I simply don't have anything to play new games on... I still buy old-school games, especially for the Genesis to play during the nights at my grandparents'. I've got about 60 Genesis games. In fact, just yesterday I made a deal with a guy to buy "Shadow Dancer" and finally collect all the Genesis Shinobi games :) ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sun Jan 22, 2012 7:35 pm ----------------------------------- Okay, this is friggin ridiculous. I've had enough thinkin about it. So the NES, which is actually sitting out in the open and has been for some time, is crossing to the other side of the room to join my TV. I'm gonna get some REAL work done! A few of my gems: Edit: Haha thanks J-man or Zen. I'm still in "Mobile Web" limbo right now. Posting pictures is still a work in progress. Sorry! ----------------------------------- Lexington Mon Jan 23, 2012 11:43 am ----------------------------------- Speaking of oldschool, I have an urge to play a bunch of C64/Atari/Amiga games I owned of old. Those games did not forgive. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Jan 23, 2012 3:33 pm ----------------------------------- Deus if you want one of those xboxes that play every game for every old system my friend has one he is selling. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon Jan 23, 2012 4:28 pm ----------------------------------- Nah, perhaps somewhere in the future but for now I enjoy doing it the hard way. Ya know, with the original hardware/controllers. Tangibility is one of my turn ons. Though I will take this time to announce the premature death of my modded PSP. Fuckin motherboard decided to commit suicide. In good news, I popped in Mega Man 3 and fully expected it to give me at least a ten minute battle. But like a sign from Satan, it started right up on the first try. And also to my surprise, my re-learning curve decided to stay in it's cave. I must admit, as I put the first few robot masters on their hands and knees and proceeded to rape them after a single speed run of their domain, I looked pretty badass :b ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:01 pm ----------------------------------- DUDEEEE!!! You've got some real gems there!! I've always wanted to own the Castlevania and Ninja Gaiden trilogies (need them on Famicom though, don't own a NES), but I only managed to get NG2. Well, atleast it's my favourite in the series :) I once managed to beat it without getting a single "Game Over", only lost two lives in the entire playthrough :) ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:28 pm ----------------------------------- I wanna say most of them were Swap Meet finds. There is ALWAYS good stuff at those things. Except they try to get smart and use ebay as way to justify their absurd prices. It came down to Mega Man 4 or Super C for $15 a pop. So I got MM4. Which I regretted later. But luckily I found a copy of Super C at a thrift store for a cheaper price. I once managed to beat it without getting a single "Game Over", only lost two lives in the entire playthrough :) SORCERY!!!! ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jan 23, 2012 8:43 pm ----------------------------------- I've just beaten the HD trilogy version of the first three Splinter Cell games. I think I enjoyed them more this time around. Being a little older and more willing to take my time meant I had a better time with them. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Jan 24, 2012 5:38 pm ----------------------------------- I wanna say most of them were Swap Meet finds. There is ALWAYS good stuff at those things. Except they try to get smart and use ebay as way to justify their absurd prices. It came down to Mega Man 4 or Super C for $15 a pop. So I got MM4. Which I regretted later. But luckily I found a copy of Super C at a thrift store for a cheaper price. Too bad we don't have Swap Meets here. Though I do find good deals at second hand stores - working Gameboy Color (mint condition too) for 3 bucks, Gameboy Carry Bag with two games (one of which - Star Wars) for 5, working (though no sound, but I fixed it) GameGear for 6... ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sat Jan 28, 2012 11:45 pm ----------------------------------- One of these days I'm gonna have to get serious and pick me up a Sega Nomad. That would be the ultimate in cool. Ps: Ninja Gaiden 2. It gives me an erection. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jan 29, 2012 12:20 am ----------------------------------- I'm cracking on with Resident Evil Revelations. I'd say It's a slight return to form for the series and if you have the "Circle Pad Pro" you can walk and shoot. I know, revolutionary ain't it? The only problem is when you are playing as Jill It's all tense with limited ammo and tight spaces (not the best description) but as Chris you get a shit load of ammo and no scares. The graphics are great too. Nice lighting and character models but the occasional muddy texture here and there (but very impressive for a 3DS). And considering the top screen is only 3.53 inches, the fact it actually contains a few slight jumps surprised me. The story and voice acting? As hammy as a pig eating a joint. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sun Jan 29, 2012 12:51 am ----------------------------------- ...but as Christ you get a shit load of ammo Sounds like my kinda game! Is there any Christ on Christ action yet? ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jan 29, 2012 1:11 am ----------------------------------- Deus' astute observation Ah fuck man. Now I have to edit that. And remember Christ doesn't need ammo son. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sun Jan 29, 2012 5:14 pm ----------------------------------- Deus' astute observation Ah fuck man. Now I have to edit that. And remember Christ doesn't need ammo son. I don't know man. Watch one of the worst movies ever made. 'Jesus Christ: Vampire hunter' and you may change your tune. Well I could only sit through about a half hour of the movie so I don't really know what happens. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sun Jan 29, 2012 6:46 pm ----------------------------------- Ninja Gaiden 2.

The AI had that "rubberbanding" thing going on which I can't stand.

I was looking forward to this but the demo killed it for me. The art style is great but the gameplay just doesn't match up. The shooting controls are lax, the combat is boring and the "Burst Mode" moments are just glorified cutscenes peppered by quick time events. Give it to the teams behind Devil May Cry, God Of War or Bayonetta The story remains interesting though. ----------------------------------- Lexington Mon Jan 30, 2012 3:07 pm ----------------------------------- Agree... I won't be buying this one. I am not really a fan of excessive quick time events, especially when the game looks like it's not much else. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Jan 30, 2012 4:26 pm ----------------------------------- Ninja Gaiden 2. It's like trying to have sex with a brick wall. ... an make you like it!! ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Mon Jan 30, 2012 5:59 pm ----------------------------------- Oh definitely. It's just the learning curve of putting the layout of the game to memory. Reminds me of the old days of Counter-Strike. You would get pwn'd a million times, but that first kill would have you jumping up and down wiping tears of celebration off the monitor. A sense of accomplishment I don't think you get with most modern games where you really just have to.....be there. Most NES games require time. As in, "Hmm, I could play Super C right now, but I don't know if I want to invest 5 hours of my life to dying a million times". But once that time is put in, theres no getting around the respect you've earned. The status I put up on assbook was: Ninja Gaiden 2: The Dark Sword of I've Never Yelled Fuck so Many Times. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Jan 30, 2012 9:43 pm ----------------------------------- One thing I learned after owning my modded xbox with all the old games on it is that although I do like the old games, I much prefer the new ones. I cannot get the same joy out of ninja gaiden and hundreds of other titles that I can playing skyrim or any elder scrolls games, grand theft, civilization games, or shooters if I'm online. There are a select few old games I can play forever like tetris, picross, games like that. But most others get old pretty quick. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Tue Jan 31, 2012 12:35 am ----------------------------------- Harcore status...REVOKED! Perhaps I spoke too rash of the difficulty or the sense of accomplishment in modern gaming, but in the end we're talking about completely different eras of entertainment. Both reflecting trends, limits, and styles of their respective time periods. Thus yielding a completely different, though sometimes similar, result. One of the factors that keeps me hanging on to and lugging around multiple outdated gaming machines? The style. Judging from purely the finest examples of a sealed game library, the 8-16 bit eras had one thing modern and future games will never quite touch. And that, is style. The grace in which a 2d sptite travels across a multilayered plane to create the illusion of depth, scale, and movement, is something that has always pleased me. And doing so within the system's limitations of audio output, if done right, seals the game forever in a tomb of style and class. I compare it to watching a hand drawn animated film to that of a computer generated film. They both had hours of blood sweat and tears put into their development, but where most people see limitations, I see a level playing field upon which the art and craft of the design process creates a foundation for a level of creativity, both in the final product and the technical make up, to flourish. Kind of like inhibiting your domimant senses to allow the lesser overlooked, and thus ill used, senses to grow and become stronger as a whole. Fasting to prepare for the enlightenment of the hunt, destruction as a means of creation, engaging pain and torture to reach a level of consciousness beyond the limitations of pleasure, traveling back in time to kill your grandfather thus erasing your point of origin and becomming something that exists yet has no beginning. And now no end, creating your own imortality and sustained indefinite existence. Becoming a God. Then there is Nostalgia. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Jan 31, 2012 5:19 am ----------------------------------- After reading that I have the feeling of existentialism. ----------------------------------- Philip17 Sat Feb 04, 2012 2:30 pm ----------------------------------- This year, was the first time I ever played the original game of Deus Ex. I had the original game a few years ago, but never had the chance (or never got interested in playing it). I didn't know what I was missing! The story behind Paul and JC Denton was amazing, I must say, even though the graphics can't match up to today's standards, this game has an awesome story, and also the Soundtrack can keep your interest in the atmosphere of the game. I have yet to see how the sequel turn out to be. :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- DoktorNo Sun Feb 05, 2012 5:18 pm ----------------------------------- Now I am improving my skills in Team Force 2.

I was like that at my grandparent's place the other day. Decided to play some "Battletoads" on the Genesis as I've had it for about a few months and still hadn't sat down to beat it... This fu**er's got no mercy!! Made it to level 4 (some Ice Cave) without any problems, but the one-hit-deaths there got me angry and I switched the console off... Decided to play "Vectorman" instead - also, one of my newer games. Pretty good. I enjoyed it quite a lot, though it was a bit hard at times. Effects galore!! Started playing "The Lost Vikings" and made it to level 19. Now this is how you make a game!! ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sat Feb 11, 2012 7:36 pm ----------------------------------- Decided to play "Vectorman" instead - also, one of my newer games.

Made well, but what it is trying to be is somewhere in the middle of Fable and Skyrim. I think I'd take either of the games this title is mimicking rather than the title itself. Good renter, not a buyer for me. ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Sun Feb 12, 2012 12:08 am ----------------------------------- Yeah, Vectorman is the shit. Good animation, atmosphere, music, difficulty, AND style. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Feb 12, 2012 11:33 am ----------------------------------- I went through The Darkness (the first game for my PS3 I'd truly call "next-gen") in preparation for the second one and went through Uncharted 3 again because it was patched, and thus the experience was a bit better (not as good as the first two mind). ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Feb 15, 2012 4:26 pm ----------------------------------- Ahh, a double post! Just beaten The Darkness II, am going through Uncharted 2 again, and will then play Skyrim which I got with my Birthday money. Goodbye, social life and human contact. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Feb 16, 2012 1:29 pm ----------------------------------- YES!! Finally scored "Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi" for the Genesis/Mega Drive. I had never played the sequels to the arcade "Shinobi" until about two years ago when I got into Genesis collecting. It took me a while to score Revenge of Shinobi and Shinobi 3. And then it took me even more to even FIND someone that was selling Shadow dancer at a decent price. And I finally did - 3 bucks was a terrific price, even though it's a bootleg cart. But what a bootleg - it's in a Japanese-type cart, which is a bit unfortunate, as I play my Model 1 and these type of carts don't fit into that one (although I do have an MD2). But as it turns out I have a spare US-type cart and can replace them. And the sticker - it's not Shadow Dancer, but a pic of Ryu Hayabusa fighting Doku (from the Ninja Gaiden X-Box game), but it looks awesome! I'm very happy to finally own this :) ----------------------------------- JohnBoyAdvance Sun Feb 19, 2012 2:53 pm ----------------------------------- Mass Effect 3 demo. playing it as a new character rather than Generic Male Man. Handy little Ann Lewis default in the presets (Well I think anyway) Multiplayer is pretty damn fun as well. Also Soul Calibur V. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sun Feb 19, 2012 6:05 pm ----------------------------------- When one is late on the bandwagon they get shit cheaper. I split the cost of Resident Evil 5 with my suitemate and we will be embarking on the co-op today. ----------------------------------- Fummelcop Sun Feb 19, 2012 9:48 pm ----------------------------------- I´ve had deus ex:human revolution, laying around since it`s release and finally started playing it. It is really cool, like the hitman games, but a cyborg-hitman. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Feb 20, 2012 3:31 am ----------------------------------- Resident Evil 5 is a good game but it is clear that it i sno longer a resident evil game. It is now a shooter and there are no puzzles or FUCKING ZOMBIES! But, that aside I dominated it and made it my bitch. Been playing alot of Forza 4 lately with my new xbox and tv. Also been gettin dirty on some Halo Reach. Anybody on xbox live my gamertag is JohnTaper. Probably said it before butt fuck it. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Mon Feb 20, 2012 3:46 am ----------------------------------- Resident Evil 5 is a good game but it is clear that it i sno longer a resident evil game.

The only things that seem Resident Evil about ti are the aiming system (which they're doing away with in future games) and the bosses. However, it's still a decent game worth $20. Not $60, but $20 is fair. ----------------------------------- Lexington Tue Feb 21, 2012 11:56 am ----------------------------------- I thought RE5 kinda sucked, too much daylight, too much action shooter as opposed to survival horror. So I won't be bothering with the upcoming offerings to the series, probably. I received AC: Revelations as a gift, and I've forgotten what the hell was going on in Brotherhood so I'm replaying that first. Although at the moment I'm just tormenting old women and punching buskers. Ah, Roma. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Feb 21, 2012 6:11 pm ----------------------------------- Played me some "Super Star Wars" on SNES :) ----------------------------------- Zentron Fri Mar 02, 2012 12:47 am ----------------------------------- Just got under-way with Need for Speed: Undercover, a game I thought I had lost, but finally found again yesterday! ----------------------------------- Lexington Thu Apr 12, 2012 10:04 am ----------------------------------- I'm playing through all of the Soul Reaver series in order. <3 I've had Defiance on my shelf for years and never finished it. I'd like to play Blood Omen 2 as well, which is cheap on eBay, but I've not played BO1 and that's not so easy to get on there reasonably, but I'm intrigued. ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Apr 12, 2012 10:41 am ----------------------------------- I've had Defiance on my shelf for years and never finished it. Playing as both Kain and Raziel was pant tightenly cool. I have just completed Splinter Cell: Conviction. I'm borrowing my niece's 360 (which she has only used once or twice) as I wanted to play Dead or Alive 4, but seeing as I've got the console I picked up Conviction for Ł6. It was the only one in the series I had not completed so I was quite happy about that. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Apr 12, 2012 3:33 pm ----------------------------------- Mass effect 3 was pleasurable. I've played through all the mass games now and also the knights of the old republic games. Can't wait for the new star wars knights game. ----------------------------------- Nika Silwerra Thu Apr 12, 2012 6:34 pm ----------------------------------- Stalker -Shadows of Chernobyl.

As a fan of Stephen King I must say I am enjoying it so far.

I do know that Legacy Of Kain: Blood Omen was top down and more of a role playing game whereas Legacy Of Kain: Blood Omen 2 was more your standard hack and slash with some gifts (read abilities) thrown in. Defiance was almost like DMC. It was very much a hack and slash game but it runs silky smooth at 60 fps and playing as Kain kicks all kinds of ass. Plus it rounds the series off nicely. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Mon Apr 16, 2012 12:52 am ----------------------------------- Last game Ive played was ' journey' a few times.

I've beaten it too but some sterile fuck ruined the ending for me so I failed to get the same out of the game that you did. However, playing through a second time I found a companion and going through it together gave me a good feeling, especially seeing as you can only communicate through "chirps". It's neat how you form your own form of communication. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Apr 16, 2012 9:32 pm ----------------------------------- I beat "Aliens: Infestation" the other day. Pretty good game (though the ending was disappointing). It's got a neat cheesy song during the credits too. ----------------------------------- Lexington Wed Apr 18, 2012 9:39 am ----------------------------------- I haven't played the Blood Omen games so I can't really say what they're like.

Defiance was almost like DMC. It was very much a hack and slash game but it runs silky smooth at 60 fps and playing as Kain kicks all kinds of ass. Plus it rounds the series off nicely. The top down will take some getting used to again but I am intrigued after watching a couple of videos of it, it'll be nostalgic. some screenshots of BO2 remind me of an early-looking Assassin's Creed with Kain's get-up. I think I'll get them. If Defiance plays more like DMC I'll be at home. I'm about 80% through SR2 and while I love the rest of the game, the combat is noticeably a bit clunky, especially with my controller which is about 8 years old now and one of the buttons doesn't respond occasionally, so I'll sometimes be on a demon-slaying roll and then Raziel suddenly quits hitting and gets his ass handed to him. It is more of an exploration and puzzle game like the first so combat was secondary I suppose, strangely it didn't feel as debilitating in the first SR. Maybe just the movement style and the speed of the characters in this one that makes the difference. The regular Sarafan move a lot quicker than I do. ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Apr 18, 2012 9:56 am ----------------------------------- The combat is better in Defiance by far. If I remember right you have Circle/B for telekinesis (think the force fush or force grab), Square/X as your standard attack and Triangle/Y for a lift up attack (think back and Circle in the Devil May Cry games sans Ebony and Ivory to back it up). You also use Triangle/Y to finish an enemy off. Also, Raziel's Soul Reaver has different properties and you can switch them at will with a press of the D-Pad. As for what I'm now playing it's the Dead Or Alive 5 demo which I snagged from Tecmo. I also reveived a beta code for Ghost Recon: Future Soldier so shall be playing that when the servers open. ----------------------------------- Lexington Sun Apr 22, 2012 11:10 pm ----------------------------------- Finished SR2 and on to Defiance tonight. I must admit, my pants are proverbially tight. :D ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Apr 22, 2012 11:20 pm ----------------------------------- Finished SR2 and on to Defiance tonight.

That's why they are proverbially tight, rather than actually tight. :b They're... 'tight in spirit'.

I am currently pitching a trouser tent at the thought of the third game in the series so I thought I'd recap Max's previous escapades. Even though bullet time has been around for ages and is used way too often, the Max Payne series gets away with it in my eyes because it was the first major game series to use it. I still get a cheap thrill out of it. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue May 08, 2012 8:34 pm ----------------------------------- I loved Max Payne 1 and 2 back in the day... But somehow I'm feeling sceptical over Max Payne 3. Anyway, I borrowed a friend of mine's IPad for a day and plowed through "Batman: Arkham City Lockdown", which wasn't bad. I'm currently playing "Alice in Wonderland" for the DS, which has pretty neat character designs. And I'm thinking of having a DoA 3 session on the X-Box before going to bed. ----------------------------------- Josh Tue May 08, 2012 9:13 pm ----------------------------------- I loved Max Payne 1 and 2 back in the day... But somehow I'm feeling sceptical over Max Payne 3. I can understand why. But people seem to think Noir is only allowed to be set in New York or L.A, when it rains and during the night. Noir is more than that, it's an atmosphere. I think what Rockstar are doing is starting a new chapter in Max's life. This way you can appeal to veterans of the series and newcomers alike. Yeah, there will probably only be brief mentions of past characters but you can still acknowledge past events. trust me '93, I'll be very unhappy if it's crap. ----------------------------------- Lexington Wed May 09, 2012 10:36 am ----------------------------------- I know why I am feeling skeptical. http://media.pcgamer.com/files/2011/12/Max-Paynes-face.jpg No piss-drinking face? No deal. Nah, there will probably be a point when it'll get played, but still. This was my personal highlight. Oh, and Lords and Ladies. And crappy voice acting from the bad guys. If they make it quality, what will I LOL at? It'll be all soooper-serious and stuff. :/ (I know it's supposed to be serious... kinda: dead wife and child and all... but I generally just found the last two games to be a roflcaust... in a good way). ----------------------------------- Josh Wed May 09, 2012 2:48 pm ----------------------------------- No piss-drinking face? No deal. Did you skip the second game then? ----------------------------------- Lexington Wed May 09, 2012 11:43 pm ----------------------------------- Nope... but I missed that face so hard. ----------------------------------- Josh Wed May 09, 2012 11:53 pm ----------------------------------- Nope... but I missed that face so hard. On the plus side Remedy actually modelled Max some ears for the sequel. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu May 10, 2012 4:18 am ----------------------------------- No hair though... Face seems completely different in max payne 3 too. ----------------------------------- Josh Thu May 10, 2012 11:03 am ----------------------------------- No hair though... Face seems completely different in max payne 3 too. Yeah, this time because James McCaffrey who voices Max in all three games is now doing the motion capture Rockstar decided to model his face aswell. If you look at the first bits of concept art for Max Payne 3 it was just photoshopped pictures of Timothy Gibbs (who was the model used for Max in the second game) before they decided they would use McCaffrey. At a point Rockstar weren't even going to get McCaffrey back to voice Max but fans were not too happy about that. I can deal with the face change as it has happened with the last two games. There will also be parts where Max has hair and is clean shaven or parts where Max has hair and a beard. The narrative is not always in chronological order. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun May 20, 2012 11:13 pm ----------------------------------- Max Payne 3. Oh yes. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sun May 20, 2012 11:37 pm ----------------------------------- Max Payne 3. Oh yes. Well??? This is one of those games that make me wish I hadn't sold my xbox and TV. Max Payne 3 was a classic from my youth that I played through several times (on the PC and Xbox). 2 diluted the formula that made Max Payne 2 and filtered it into a more generic, less exciting sequel, but for 3 it's a whole different time in gaming and the reinvention of Max Payne was necessary, and it looks like they're doing the right things with the character. So how did it turn out? Can it compare to the original? Was it satisfying enough? And more importantly, was it Max Payne??? ----------------------------------- Josh Mon May 21, 2012 12:42 am ----------------------------------- It has changed. Max is worse than ever due to his new alcohol and painkiller addiction and when a chance to leave New York presents itself, although not entirely convinced of the good it will do, does decide to take it. Gameplay wise it is similar with the often seen over the shoulder aiming. While this may annoy some fans you can choose to play without holding the left trigger to aim, and unlike most games your accuracy does not decrease as a result. Bullet time is a mix between the first and second game. It is not infinite like the shootdodge in MP2 and does not recharge by itself. Whereas MP1 used bullet time for aiming rather than speed and MP2 went overboard making it less about Max's reflexes and more about some kind of super power, MP3 is a nice compromise. Also, the meter builds up slowly when under fire to give you a fair chance if you run out. There is also no health regen. You still use your painkillers and while they are less frequent they are more effective. In the last two games you took three or four to replenish your health but now you only take one, but like I said you don't find as many. The most I have ever found at once is two. The setting is good aswell. Noir is not just a location but an atmosphere so I would describe it as Neo-Noir. It has the classic noir archetypes. Brooding characters, conspiracies, an anti-hero, and some metaphor lined narration. While there are parts set in sunny Sao Paulo, Max also has flashbacks to New Jersey. The environments are also as sleezy as ever. I wouldn't say it's a reinvention. It still feels like a Max Payne game although it has moved with the times. It also has a completely different writing team that tries to carry on the style of Sam Lake's script and succeeds. There are a few problems with a couple of physics bugs here and there but nothing that breaks the game. I'd say it does compare to the original. It does feel different and to some people that's a good thing and to others a bad thing, but it is the natural progression of Max's story. I'm happy with it but if you are considering it and are on the fence give it a rental. Even if the gameplay is brilliant if you don't like the feel of the game it's no good. And Pimp. As I write this it's late and my post might be full of crap and incoherant wording. If you have any more questions I would be glad to answer them. ----------------------------------- Lexington Wed May 30, 2012 12:06 pm ----------------------------------- Just bought PS3 Devil May Cry HD collection. HUGE longtime fan of this series, but... *sucks breath* I knew they were gonna mess this one up. My hopes weren't high. All 3 games in HD on PS3 seem to have slightly better-looking/cleaned up edges in the gameplay, that's about the only major positive difference. The one that looks best for the change and benefits the most is probably DMC1. I think they've fixed Dante's "slow run", but other things have been blatantly neglected - such as the vortex animation in the corrupted world is actually missing, as are some minor glowing effects like the trails on Griffon's eyes. Some cutscenes are just upscaled - badly. DMC2 is sharper but I haven't actually fired that one up yet to properly compare. Probably won't for a while. I notice the contrast appears to have been turned up and the saturation turned down in DMC3 particularly. A lot of neon glow and lighting effects look washed-out or have been switched around and over-emphasized in the HD. A few cutscenes such as the opening video are even worse-looking in HD than the normal version - I presume someone actually lost the original in-game cutscenes and ended up using the ones from the trailers in it because some of them look terrible. I do notice some subtle differences with the sound quality in this one, and with some of the timing of enemy attacks. Nevan's attacks I think they've actually sped up a tiny bit; also noticed they've changed around the kinds of difficulty-dependent enemy encounters you get in DMC1, making harder enemies like shadows and frosts appear on normal mode, as though they want to show off all the enemy types the first time playing, but the general difficulty of the mode has been toned down. Bah. Cheats are still in it but the game can't be saved with them activated, lulz. They could have made this into a really neat set, instead of having visual incongruities everywhere. P.S.: I still have all the originals, I just wanted copies I could play on the PS3 if my PS2 craps out. I guess I'm having fun with this, though. Any excuse to play some more classic DMC. ----------------------------------- Josh Wed May 30, 2012 4:00 pm ----------------------------------- That's the problem with the HD remasters. I bought the Splinter Cell Trilogy last year and the good thing was that it was the PC version they used rather than the PS2. So you get a version on par with the PC which is always the best looking one. Alas, it was not without problems. It had the worst framerate going. I'm talking dropping to 10fps in some parts. To me there is no excuse. Ubisoft took a ten year old game and put it on a console capable of so much more and still the framerate was balls. I like some HD collections. The problem with console exclusive ones is that it will look the same but in 720p or if you're lucky 1080p. If you have a game that was released on PS2, XBox, Gamecube and the PC then you will have the best version chosen for the remaster as the developer can choose the best assets to use. Great if you played the graphically inferior version, not so much if you played it on the PC. it was like when me and the missus bought the Ico and Shadow Of The Colossus HD remaster. Because it was only ever on the PS2 there was no option for using better textures and such unless Team Ico decided to make new ones, which would then make it a true remaster and not just a port. Hell, Ico and Shadow Of The colossus were locked at 30fps on a machine capable of displaying these kind of graphics at 60fps. Long story short, if they are done well then I'm happy. Nine times out of ten they are a lazy way to make a quick buck off of fans. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jun 01, 2012 2:08 pm ----------------------------------- Long story short, if they are done well then I'm happy.

A pretty neat game and damn impressive for a portable FPS. ----------------------------------- Josh Fri Jun 01, 2012 3:21 pm ----------------------------------- I have just beaten Sonic Generations, one of the most annoying games I've played in recent memory. I went in expecting the highlights of Sonic's twenty year span and I was dissapointed. Green Hill, check, Chemical Plant Zone, check, Crisis City, WHY? The Sonic Adventure levels were okay but the Sonic Heroes, Sonic 2006 and Sonic Colours levels were horrid. As you progress further through the game the level quality gets worse and worse because the designs are less original and lackk imagination. The controls were dire aswell. Unresponsive and clunky and that's me being nice. The game is also too fast when it came to the classic Sonic gameplay and it was worse for it. The Megadrive (Genesis to my Yank brothers) games were never as fast as this. They could have got away with slowing classic Sonic down by going "hey, he has shorter legs". A modern Sonic game should not have these kind of controls. It's 2012, not 1999. I did like some of the references though. I will always call Robotnik by his original name (I know that he was always called Eggman in the Japanese release) and they made light of that as well of some of the corny dialogue (when Amy is gushing Sonic gives a funny look to they viewer). The voice acting was as convincing as a Nun in a brothel and I'm glad classic Sonic did not utter a word. I also downloaded Sonic CD off of the Playstation Store and can tell you it plays a lot better and is more fun and less frustrating. A couple of the bosses even require you to excersise the ol' grey matter insead of hitting X when the lock-on icon appears. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Fri Jun 01, 2012 8:44 pm ----------------------------------- Hey, they just wanted to take you on a tour of Sonic history, so of course it gets worse the more you play! ----------------------------------- Deus Ex Robo Fri Jun 01, 2012 10:08 pm ----------------------------------- BA-ZING!

A couple of the bosses even require you to excersise the ol' grey matter insead of hitting X when the lock-on icon appears. "Sonic Colors" was actually pretty decent on the DS. As for me... I finally gave in to the temptation and bought a Wii, second-hand (though it wasn't registered and now I've got 1500 star points at Club Nintendo :) ) and it's been glorious. I've been wanting a Wii ever since they showed it at E3 before it was released... So far I've only got 3 games for it - Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Conduit 2 and pack-in Wii Sports. I'm not very keen on the Mii's, but Wii Sports is actually fun. Now I gotta go save up for "Metroid Prime: Trilogy". They've got multiple copies at pretty much every store that sells Wii games in my town, but 70 BGN (about 50-60 bucks)... that's steep :| ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Jun 08, 2012 8:27 pm ----------------------------------- Can't wait for forza horizon. A free roaming forza game is going to be sooooo good. Also will be getting the Tony Hawk 1 and 2 games they are remastering for 360. They were the best tony hawk games and are going to be awesome in HD. Then Halo 4 later on. This year is awesome for games... On 360 anyway. Oh yeah also the Skyrim expansion is coming.... Too much for me to handle. ----------------------------------- Josh Fri Jun 08, 2012 10:03 pm ----------------------------------- On 360 anyway. I think the only company to bomb at this years E3 was Nintendo. Considering they have a new console coming out they should be blowing us away with what this new console can do. I have a mate who has held off of getting Batman: Arkham City as he wanted to get it "for the most powerful console it would be released on". When he saw that the WiiU version was pretty much the same save for a new character model (armoured Batman), tacked on motion controls and the ability to select gadgets with the new tablet controller he went out abd got a copy for the 360. One of the WiiU's best launch games should not be a port of a year old game that 99% of the people who wanted it actually went out and bought it. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Jun 21, 2012 8:24 pm ----------------------------------- Pretty much all of the companies failed on this year's E3. Nintendo however was the biggest disappointment to me, especially after the great presentation last year. Anyway, I recently beat "Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions" on Wii. Is it just me or do other people too hate levels that take approx. 40 minutes to beat? After around half the levels, the game gets extremely repetative and instead of making me want more after a level it just makes me want to take a rest and finish it faster tomorrow, so I can move on to a better game... Today I went to my best buddy's place and took my SNES with me. We played some "Killer Instinct" and beat "Spider-Man & Venom: Maximum Carnage". Good times :) ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Jul 05, 2012 10:02 pm ----------------------------------- Binary Domain. My God this has got to be one of the most surprising games I have ever played. I went in expecting an average game but I got a game that was so much more. The graphics are great, the gameplay is solid, the feel of the gunplay is fantastic (the enemy robots break apart when you shoot them), the story has some twists and turns, the voice acting is good (and made me laugh in a cheesy sort of way), the characters are likeable and the bosses have an old school charm to them. I cannot stress how underrated this game is. The only letdown for me was a few control niggles (going into cover when I didn't want to) and your team mates AI. There would be tmes where they wouldn't revive me or just wouldn't shoot the enemies as much as I would have liked. SEGA did not market this game and as a result it sold poorly, yet they continue to pull out all the stops when marketing their latest Sonic game which normally turns out to be a colossal anal sphincter. This game can be found dirt cheap so I heartily recommend you pick it up or at lkeast rent it. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jul 06, 2012 7:10 am ----------------------------------- I went to my grandparents' place for a couple of days and played some stuff on the Genesis. I beat "The Lost Vikings" which is still the best game Blizzard ever made, if you ask me. Also played through "Batman", "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: The Movie", "Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse". I was thinking of trying to beat "Judge Dredd", but that game simply makes me scream with hatred. Got to the last boss a couple of times, but the last password it's given me is for 6 levels back... I'm sure the ending won't be worth it... I also started playing "Professor Layton and the Curious Village" on the DS. More games like this need to be made. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Aug 03, 2012 5:17 pm ----------------------------------- Trials evolution. This game is amazing. Definitely one of my favorite games ever. I've played more than 50hours on it already. It is basically never ending because you can download tracks other peope have made or you can upload tracks that you've made. Constantly playing new tracks. If anybody has a 360 I highly recommed getting this game. I'm currently ranked 5,978 out of 824,590 people on the global leaderboard. I think I have become obsessed with making that number of mine get smaller and smaller. Fuckin amazng game. Might be on pc too, I don't know ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Aug 04, 2012 3:21 pm ----------------------------------- The Tomb Raider Trilogy, Aliens VS Predator and Ghost Recon Future Soldier since my last update. All three being okay and have not offended me in any way. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Aug 17, 2012 6:11 pm ----------------------------------- I got a couple of brand-new NES games the other day. One of them being the rare "New Ghostbusters II". It's a pretty neat game, though incredibly cheap at times. I died on the first of two final bosses. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Sep 29, 2012 11:02 pm ----------------------------------- I'm currently going between Sleeping Dogs and Dead Or Alive 5. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Sep 30, 2012 11:16 am ----------------------------------- How is DoA 5? Any major changes from the previous ones? I still play DoA 3 on my old-school X-Box. What I did last was beat "Metroid: Other M" on the Wii. I don't know why this game gets so much hate. I absolutely loved it. It does have a couple of problems, but it's nitpicking. Great game. I also finished "Donkey Kong Country" on the Virtual Console. Good old-school fun :) ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Sep 30, 2012 3:04 pm ----------------------------------- How is DoA 5? Any major changes from the previous ones?. There are loads of little changes to move properties and thing like that. The characters obviously have new moves added and the counter system is now four point like Dead Or Alive: Ultimate and Dead Or Alive 4 as opposed to three point. There is also a move named a Power Blow which when charged and landed does a nice meaty combo and allows you to aim where to knock the enemy, normally into one of the danger zones which are more over the top and cinematic then ever. Adding to this there are cliffhanger moments where you can hang to the edge of a ledge an opponent knocks you off of and attempt to negate some of the damage. The graphic style has changed a bit. Characters are no longer as anime in appearance although they are not entirely realistic but I think it is a welcome change. Saying that, the women are still as impossibly proportioned as ever. The counter timing has been cut down to minimise spamming so they are harder to do then ever. Although it's great you can't spam the counters it does take away from Dead Or Alive's edge somewhat as it always had a rock, paper, scissors way about it. Strikes take priority over throws, throws take priority over holds (read counters), and holds take priority over strikes. Now juggles and combos are more important then they have eve been. Because the aforementioned properties have changed I am now finding that characters I used have to be learned over again, and it's a pain in the ass pressing a button expecting something to happen but getting a different result. Here is a video showing the Power Blows. [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db0XwPDjgEo]Dead Or Alive 5 Power Blows And one for the cliffhangers. [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMQDSUxUZ3U]Dead Or Alive 5 Cliffhangers EDIT: Also, I've just beaten Resident Evil 6. I wouldn't say it's quite as bad as the reviews have made out and it made for a fun few hours. ----------------------------------- hotrodled Fri Dec 21, 2012 11:29 pm Robocop classic ----------------------------------- Just last week i pulled out my first NES system to play the first robocop video game. The graphics really didnt look as bad as i thought they would. Still fun! http://img.brothersoft.com/screenshots/softimage/r/robocop-141035-4.jpeg ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Dec 21, 2012 11:39 pm ----------------------------------- I still remember when my mom bought me that game. I still play it to this day and I love it :) I'm currently playing "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed" on the Wii. The first level looked pretty bad - almost no textures, clunky enemy movement... I thought it's going to be a really bad version of the game... Turns out that only the first level is like that for some reason and the rest of the game both looks and plays much, much better. I'm really enjoying it. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Fri Dec 21, 2012 11:45 pm ----------------------------------- Ive been playing alot of Sonic AllStars racing transformed. its been way more enjoyable than I thought it be, I ended up writing a review about it here http://www.superpolypixel.com/review-sonic-all-stars-racing-transformed/ aside from that Im playing Mother3 on the GBA, and trying to finish Darksiders2.. and some battlefield3 when I can. ----------------------------------- Burnout Tue Dec 25, 2012 4:09 am ----------------------------------- I was actually thinking about picking Sonic all stars transformed on the Vita, I like the ideas sega implemented. Kind of mixes up the old cart racing formula. As for my latest gaming habits, I am revisiting Oddworld Strangers Wrath. Damn that game is still great and looks amazing on the Vita. Trying to 100% Borderlands 2 and finally beat Dishonored. Oh and Halo 4.....always playing Halo 4 lol. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Dec 28, 2012 3:46 pm ----------------------------------- I borrowed my best friend's PSP along with most of his games to play a bit. I can finally sit down and beat "Castlevania: Symphony of the Night" - one of the few games in the series I hadn't played/beaten. I'm currently a going through the Inverted Castle, I've cleared most of it and have all 5 Dracula parts, but will keep on exploring. One thing that surprises me about SOTN is the balance of the game. I've died no more than 3 times, have used a healing item only once, whereas in other Metroid-Vanias I buy a lot of them and use them all the time. Here, instead of enemies gradually getting stronger, as you get stronger, they just put normal enemies, most of which die in a single hit. Heck, I beat both of Death's forms in under 10 seconds O_O (and I was pretty disappointed, considering the fights against Death are some of the parts I look forward the most to in a Castlevania game). And I'm not even grinding or anything... I'll probably finish it tomorrow. ----------------------------------- Archive Fri Dec 28, 2012 5:24 pm ----------------------------------- I can finally sit down and beat "Castlevania: Symphony of the Night" - one of the few games in the series I hadn't played/beaten. One of my favourite games. I re-play it every other year. :) I prefer the cheesy dialogue from the PS1 version rather than the re-recorded PSP version, although the later added some new content which is nice. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Dec 29, 2012 1:32 pm ----------------------------------- Just beat it, with 188% Map Exploration. I definetely enjoyed it a lot. Probably the best out of the Metroid-Vanias, though not my favourite Castlevania game as a whole. Shaft and Dracula were pretty much pathetic, just like Death... Galamoth, well, now that's a different story :D I will probably be replaying the game at some point. I really enjoyed it! ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Sat Dec 29, 2012 3:27 pm ----------------------------------- If you liked SotN, check out the GBA game Aria of Sorrow, and the DS Games Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin. There was a 3rd one, with Shanoa, can't remember the name... but it was decent. I think Dawn of Sorrow is the best of the Castlevania games in terms of gameplay, but SotN will definitely remain in my heart as the "best" since I grew up playing it. Looking back at it, it's funny knowing I used to have trouble with the game when I was a kid. Dying constantly, thinking "omg this is hard!"... and now I know the game in and out, speed running the game in 20 minutes, or going on no armor/no weapon/fists only runs. Anyway... my latest endeavor- The Walking Dead video game. Lee Everett has become one of my favorite characters of all time. ----------------------------------- hotrodled Sat Dec 29, 2012 4:17 pm Tombraider ----------------------------------- Tombraider is still my fav game. I still have everyone that came out. There coming out with a new game i believe this march. Tombraider to me was a head of its time and i believe it was the first 3D go anywere game. I tried to play one of the first games but the graphics were so bad i was getting a headache. I cant believe i played this at all when i was younger. Similar to Tombraider is Uncharted. There great games if you like to solve puzzles and still have the shoot them up stuff. http://images.hollywood.com/site/tomb_raider_underworld.jpg http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61lIir-UhuL._SL500_SS500_.jpg ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Dec 29, 2012 4:40 pm ----------------------------------- If you liked SotN, check out the GBA game Aria of Sorrow, and the DS Games Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin.

Yeah, I've played through the GBA and DS games as well. I actually liked Portrait of Ruin and Order of Eclessia much better than Dawn of Sorrow. I'm not particularly fond of Soma :D The Castlevanias I haven't played are the recent arcade game, "Chronicles", "Lament of Innocence", "Lords of Shadow" and "Harmony of Despair". All the others I've beaten and for the most part have thoroughly enjoyed. "Rondo of Blood" is probably my favourite of the bunch. I have it on my Wii and have played through it in Japanese, but now I'll play the translated version and maybe the 3D remake, while my friend's PSP is still with me. ----------------------------------- DooseTheMoose Sat Dec 29, 2012 8:21 pm ----------------------------------- Soma is kind of lame as a character, but I really like the amount of abilities he can get as opposed to the other characters. The XBLA (PSN?) game is incredibly fun online with friends. It features most of the new characters, and they play just like they did in their respective games. Even has a few DLC characters, like Simon Belmont (using his original NES sprites), and levels (one level being the entire Castlevania 1 NES game as a level. I recommend it. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Sat Jan 12, 2013 9:27 pm ----------------------------------- I've been playing a lot of games recently.

I've been meaning to get this along with the Killzone collection. On a different Hitman related note. A lot of fans complained that Blood Money was too easy even on higher difficulties. I'm no expert at games, but in playing Absolution, I think they definitely made it hard enough, even on the easier difficulties. Just simple changes like the costumes(people with the same costume see through the disguise) add more complexity. I go back and fourth on subtle changes like that, I like them and I don't. Same with the story, where the older games were more simple and contract related. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jan 14, 2013 5:33 pm ----------------------------------- The Jak And Daxter HD Trilogy.

Sometimes enemies go all out and other times they're thick as shit. And I know what you mean about the story. The previous games were purely about 47's job but now IO Interactive have focused more on the character. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Mon Jan 14, 2013 8:25 pm ----------------------------------- Indeed, I don't mind the story to a degree, but it isn't really needed on my part. I agree though with the enemies being inconsistent, it's also like that with their patterns and routes. Sometimes an enemy will walk to three different areas and stand and circle, then loop around and repeat. If you stay hidden in one general area, they'll keep doing the same thing. Yet if you sneak by them unnoticed to a different area on the map, they'll suddenly change what their doing for no apparent reason. The enemies sometimes have a handicap if you get ahead of them it seems. This annoys me a lot. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Jan 16, 2013 9:16 pm ----------------------------------- Today I finished "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed" on the Wii. And although the visuals are much worse compared to the PS3/360/PC versions, I think the Wii takes the cake in terms of controls. Ofcourse, that depends on how much you actually enjoy motion controls, but everything felt so easy to do, so intuative... I really felt as if the Force was around me. Also, I loved how all the lightsaber's sounds only came from the Wii Remote's speaker. The bad side of the game are the first couple of levels - they are really repetitive (and for some reason, the very first level, where you play as Darth Vader, looks much worse than the rest of the game), but once the story picks up, it's really interesting and feels like authentic "Star Wars". The story was a clever idea to be explored and it pays off. I can't wait to play the second one! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Jan 25, 2013 10:53 am ----------------------------------- Halo 4 Anybody else playing? currently level 56 ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Jan 27, 2013 2:50 am ----------------------------------- Halo 4 Anybody else playing? currently level 56 I have been playing the hell out of Halo 4, I keep trying to go to other games but every time I just want more Halo.

You can use your avatar as a skater and my avatar is Robocop of course. So I'm playing the shit out of Tony Hawk as Robo. It's pretty bad ass. Thats awesome! I sit around starring at my avatar in his amazing Robo armor far too often on the dashboard, just sitting there....wishing I could show it off in a multi game or something lol. I just started Prototype 2 on my new PC, they totally fixed most of the mechanical issues I had with the first game and it is fun as hell. Though at like 3 hours in some of the gameplay has become a tad repetitive, a problem I tend to notice in a lot of open world games. Basically it boils down to being "Just Cause 2" only with mutant super powers instead of crazy grappling stunts, which I am totally OK with. ----------------------------------- Sean_001 Sun Feb 17, 2013 5:23 am ----------------------------------- I just started Prototype 2 on my new PC, they totally fixed most of the mechanical issues I had with the first game and it is fun as hell.

And you're totally right about repetitive gameplay. But of course, that's before unlocking all kindsa mutations. Look for all the black boxes around the city. The Collectibles screen actually shows soundwaves near an area you need to search. Collecting all of them in the area grants a mutation upgrade. I need to search more areas myself, I'm not yet powerful enough to defeat this effing dick-monter! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Feb 18, 2013 6:15 am ----------------------------------- Thats awesome! I sit around starring at my avatar in his amazing Robo armor far too often on the dashboard, just sitting there....wishing I could show it off in a multi game or something lol. . There is a new poker game on 360, i think it is full house poker; I'm probably going to buy it since you get to use your avatar in the casino and other people see it sitting there. I'll probably just constantly spout out lines. Also if you go into the avatar shop where you can buy things your avatar does, you can preview alot of motions and movements with your avatar. You can see Robo doing ninja flips and kicks, jumping over stuff, driving and riding vehicles, all kinds of stuff. I've wasted hours just watching my RoboCop avatar go through all kinds of movements. We gotta get in a halo game, I'm up in the 70's rank now... I think. Been playing alot of trials , ranked 2,800 or so now in it. ----------------------------------- Burnout Tue Feb 19, 2013 10:31 pm ----------------------------------- I really need to get back to playing Halo regularly again, I have been slacking. Between Dead Space 3 and my new PC I am stretched pretty thin lol. The games I am currently trying to power through in no particular order: Dead Space 3 Crysis 2 Prototype 2 Saints Row 3 The Cave Having a backlog of games on Steam that I can finally play is as awesome as it is awful! Alas, I shall live :-) ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Sat Feb 23, 2013 3:16 pm ----------------------------------- Played through Dead Space 3 two times, at some point I'm going to play Aliens Colonial Marines, but right now I'm replaying Dead Space 1. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Feb 23, 2013 11:42 pm ----------------------------------- I started playing "The Conduit" on the Wii. Haven't had this much fun playing an FPS since... damn, waaaay too long. A really, really good game! Also played through "Transformers Prime: The Game" for the NDS. Not a bad game, but are they friggin' kidding me with the length? Total gameplay time: 1hr 32 min. That's pathetic! ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Feb 24, 2013 2:06 am ----------------------------------- Played through Dead Space 3 two times, at some point I'm going to play Aliens Colonial Marines, but right now I'm replaying Dead Space 1.

They were thinking "Lets use this money Sega gave us to make Borderlands". ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Feb 26, 2013 12:12 pm ----------------------------------- Even Borderlands is overrated. Seriously, have GearBox put out a quality game these past few years? Duke Nukem Forever sucked, and was sooo not worth the wait. Frankly, it would've been better if the game never came out. Colonial Marines had a lot of promise, but ever since they started delaying it I knew things are going bad. Haven't tried the game out personally, but from what I'm seeing... Well, atleast Wayforward's "Aliens: Infestation" was pretty good! I finally managed to beat the Bat-Mite Challenge on "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" on the Wii. The last 3 rounds (especially 8 and 9) are waaaaay too tough. ----------------------------------- Josh Tue Feb 26, 2013 9:38 pm ----------------------------------- Assassin's Creed 3 (bit of a let down), Max Payne 3 (again) and now Okami HD. The missus is a big fan of Okami and has it on the PS2 and the Wii so I figured I would buy the HD version. In spite of the praise it got when it was released I have never played it but I thought I would give it a go. ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Feb 27, 2013 12:16 am ----------------------------------- Josh whats your PSN ID?

Mine is Slydevil13. Majestic-Moose. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Mar 05, 2013 5:31 pm ----------------------------------- So I finished "The Conduit"... I don't know why the game's ending gets so much hate... sure, It's a cliffhanger, but it's a well made one and leaves you both wondering and wanting more. A few days ago I started "Conduit 2", which picks up exactly where the first one left off. So far - a lot of improvements over the first game, a few minor downgrades (like the lack of level select, EDIT: nevermind, there is a level select, but it shows up at some point during the game as it's a plot device). I don't know why, but it appears that all the voice actors are changed, which is too bad, as I really got used to and liked Kevin Sorbo's voice as Prometheus. One thing that pisses me off to a boil is the lenght of some levels. It just took me 2 hours to beat a level. TWO HOURS!! And it's not like I died a lot or anything, it was just too damn long. While the game does start you up at the last checkpoint, I want some proper separation between the parts of the game, not to leave and and when I pick it up later to be put in the middle of a battle I started playing days ago... Developers, please, make shorter levels! Otherwise, quite a good game so far. ----------------------------------- Josh Wed Mar 06, 2013 11:20 pm ----------------------------------- Dead Space 3 and Tomb Raider. Dead Space, while not anything resembling a horror game anymore, is enjoyable as I'm playing it co-op with the missus which is something I thought I would hate. It's implemented well with the co-op character (Carver) cleverly placed along side Issac in the cutscenes. And Tomb Raider is basically Uncharted with more tits and less balls. I do like the direction it goes in with Lara not being perfect, and the setting is genuinely intriguing. Some weird as fuck island with some batshit insane locals. ----------------------------------- Sean_001 Thu Mar 07, 2013 3:17 am ----------------------------------- Went back to Prototype after finishing Prototype 2. Now migrated over to Dead Rising 2.

I fucking love Dead Space 3, I have yet to beat it cause I inch through and search every nook and cranny lol. We totally have to get down on some co-op as I have yet to even try it. Tomb Raider, in my opinion, is amazing. The story(so far) and the voice acting is fantastic. The gameplay is so engrossing I just have to keep on playing lol. I am enjoying it a bit more than Uncharted as it does not hold your hand nearly as much and allows plenty of freedom in its environments, something Uncharted rarely, if ever, let happen. ----------------------------------- Lethal Response Sun Mar 17, 2013 11:38 pm ----------------------------------- The new Tomb Raider and God of War... loving Tomb Raider much more though. God of War gives me a 'been there, done that' feeling. ----------------------------------- Burnout Mon Mar 18, 2013 6:54 pm ----------------------------------- The new Tomb Raider and God of War... loving Tomb Raider much more though. God of War gives me a 'been there, done that' feeling. I was worried GOW would feel like that, in fact thats the same reason I have put off trying Gears Of War Judgment. Seems like those franchises just got a tad tired. Though I was never a huge fan of either story in the first place. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Mar 18, 2013 7:46 pm ----------------------------------- The Mass Effect Trilogy. I'm on the second game at the moment. It's a shame about the fact you can't go back after completing the story and do the side missions but apart from that I'm thoroughly engrossed. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Mar 18, 2013 9:39 pm ----------------------------------- I wrapped up "Conduit 2" the other day. Damn, that was a good game. Whoever was in charge of developing the story of these two games really did their homework and managed to combine all these real-life alien conspiracies and American historical events into a single story (it's especially interesting to me now that I have "American History" lectures at my university and I connect events we learn about with stuff in the game). It's really well made. Just like the first one though, it ends on a cliffhanger and even if we do get "Conduit 3", I doubt it will be on the Wii. Still, SEGA and High Voltage get two thumbs up from me for these two games. ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Mar 27, 2013 2:32 am ----------------------------------- Bioshock Infinite, it is WONDERFUL. I would write more but I seriously need to get back to playing this amazing experience. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Mar 27, 2013 10:22 am ----------------------------------- I'm playing "Pokemon Blue" :D Yeah, the very first one (I do have a copy of Red as well, though it's in German :( ) I never did get into the Pokemon craze when I was little, and good thing too. I'm sure it saved mom and dad a whooooooole lot of money. But the game is quite fun actually, addictive, yet simple to play. Quite nice. Now, since I got the two games with a Prima Strategy Guide for 'em, I'm thinking of actually attempting to catch every single type Pokemon I get the chance, just for the heck of it. We'll see how well it goes :) ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Wed Mar 27, 2013 5:44 pm ----------------------------------- Good luck, you'll have a hard time with some, not to mention technically you can't get all of 'em. But that's your problem. (Yes I was a brief part of the Pokemon craze, I'm scarred for life. :b) Anyway, I ain't played much games for a while, mostly replays of my old stuff, though I had a hard hit on my N64 emulator once I got it working straight. Perfect Dark and Goldeneye still rule. :) ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Thu Mar 28, 2013 12:35 am ----------------------------------- Good luck, you'll have a hard time with some, not to mention technically you can't get all of 'emz With a copy of red and blue and a link cable it is indeed possible to own all 150 original pokemon. ----------------------------------- Burnout Fri Mar 29, 2013 1:55 am ----------------------------------- Good luck, you'll have a hard time with some, not to mention technically you can't get all of 'emz With a copy of red and blue and a link cable it is indeed possible to own all 150 original pokemon.

Technically. :b Anyway, I got wish list of five-to-ten year old games that are actually still in stock that I might try to get with my tax refund (probably not all of them but still). The little sis is wanting to get me hooked up on WoW, though I ain't been big on MMORPGs and don't know if I can devote that much of my soul to be crushed yet. Maybe we'll see after I get a job. :wink: ----------------------------------- AlexMurphy Sun Mar 31, 2013 2:16 am ----------------------------------- Been playing the new Ghostbusters game on ISO. It's pretty dam fun, though you can only bust so many ghosts per hour because it costs "Energy". Story takes place in the film world with a new storyline involving that guy who got shocked by Venkman in the first film. Gotta say though, it would have been cool if the art for the game used the style of The Real Ghostbusters. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Apr 05, 2013 11:35 am ----------------------------------- Also playing bioshock infinite and it is good... But can you say overhyped? It is good though. Controls kind of suck, wish you could make your own control scheme instead of having to pick through a couple presets. ----------------------------------- hotrodled Fri Apr 05, 2013 10:38 pm ----------------------------------- I finnished the New TombRaider game. Was very disapointing. Im big into the puzzle side of Tombraider but this game was more of a shoot m up survival game. The only puzzles basicly were in the small tombs that you came across and they were very easy to solve, well to me anyway. All in All was a good game if your the survival shoot up type. I havent played this game online as yet but i did hear it was pretty good teaming up with your friends. ----------------------------------- Burnout Fri Apr 05, 2013 11:16 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah I read an article about Bioshock that pointed out how amazing the game was....until you entered combat LOL. I personally have no issues with it, though aiming down your sites is a click on the right thumbstick!? What are we in 2004 here still? I get that the vigor's are mapped to the left trigger but dam is that uncomfortable after playing other shooters(I guess Halo still does it, but I still dont like it). I am having fun running around the island in Tomb Raider without having to shoot thugs and collecting things. The multiplayer is really generic though, Ive played like 4 matches online and it is just a shooting gallery. I am still trying to get through Dead Space 3 on Hard and holy god, I have not played a game this punishing in a long time. Even the last one on hardcore was more forgiving. The Necros all spawn in shitty places behind and above you without the warning you used to get. It is frustrating and I am not enjoying the game nearly as much as the last two. Disappointing to say the least as this was one of my favorite franchises. I should have beaten the game by now but all I feel is dread when I think about popping it in the PS3. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Apr 06, 2013 5:57 am ----------------------------------- Check out the walking dead game series on 360. It got game of the year in xbox magazine, so I was interested. Then they put out the first episode of the game for free, so of course I downloaded it for free. Played through the first part and then they come out with parts 2-5 for half off, only 200 ms points each. It was sweet, got the whole game for 10 bucks. And it's fucking awesome, totally different type of game. Reminds me of the first resident evil on steroids. ----------------------------------- Sean_001 Sun Apr 07, 2013 2:22 pm ----------------------------------- Still playing to [Prototype] series. Guess I'm the kind of gamer that holds onto a game series I like, and play it into the ground, and move on. Guess I'm wasting time till the next FALLOUT game. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Apr 08, 2013 9:30 am ----------------------------------- I started "Ninja Gaiden Black" last night. I played the crap out of the original version and as it's probably my favourite 3rd person hack 'n' slash game out there, I was feeling like playing it again. Got my hands on Black however, which I've heard has quite a lot of content added. Plowed through the first 5 chapters and there've already been some new cutscenes, new dialogue and some new weapons too (I absolutely LOVE the Lunar at lv.2). I wonder if the PS3/PSV "Sigma" port still has that all-healing X-Box hidden in Tairon :) ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Apr 14, 2013 2:23 am ----------------------------------- Here goes some screenshots of the Auto 9 in action... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/slydevil13/a9cf8b81-b4cd-4283-96ba-45ee24f22d36_zps18a33f1f.jpghttp://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/slydevil13/cc327628-754c-41df-95f1-eb917a9d0cae_zps650d2608.jpghttp://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/slydevil13/95159678-2132-446e-8c09-31a47a705446_zps1b83bd3e.jpg OR: [url=http://gifninja.com/animated-gifs/581780/blood-dragon-auto-9]My animated GIF ----------------------------------- ant Sat Apr 27, 2013 9:23 pm ----------------------------------- Here goes some screenshots of the Auto 9 in action... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/slydevil13/a9cf8b81-b4cd-4283-96ba-45ee24f22d36_zps18a33f1f.jpghttp://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/slydevil13/cc327628-754c-41df-95f1-eb917a9d0cae_zps650d2608.jpghttp://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y275/slydevil13/95159678-2132-446e-8c09-31a47a705446_zps1b83bd3e.jpgNice.

Also every now and again the screen wigs out with VHS style "noise" and looks exactly like when Murphy has a flashback or gets shot in the face by Hobbs. ----------------------------------- Fummelcop Mon May 06, 2013 11:21 am ----------------------------------- You should check out this trailer.

I love the Dead Space series, and don't get me wrong this one was pretty good and introduced some neat ideas, but it just did not grab me like the last two. And that ending, can you say anti climax? It just kind of....ended. Not with a bang, but a whimper. Still a decent ride though. Wish I had not waited so long to beat it cause I know it will be hard to find co-op partners now. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Jun 15, 2013 9:25 am ----------------------------------- Far Cry 3 blood dragon kicks all kinds of 80's ass highly recommend it.More entertaining than most 60 dollar games.. I definitely have to download that game. As far as Far Cry 3 itself goes it is a masterpiece. The game is a free roaming first person shooter that combines skyrim with red dead redemption/grand theft auto, but it is set on a beautiful sunny tropical paradise with awesome predatory animals that attack you and a million more amazing things. I could go on and on about how great this game is. Definitely check it out. ----------------------------------- Josh Fri Jun 21, 2013 4:16 pm ----------------------------------- The Last Of Us, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, borderlands 2 and the Hitman HD Trilogy. I have my work cut out. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jun 21, 2013 9:23 pm ----------------------------------- A buddy of mine dropped by to see how I was doing. I invited him in and decided to take a little brake from studying. So what do we do? We hook up an NES and beat "Contra", "Super C" and "Contra Force" :) ----------------------------------- Zentron Fri Jun 21, 2013 9:29 pm ----------------------------------- Just replayed the classic Wipeout game on my SEGA Saturn, I've beaten the Venom Class and after watching the Graham Norton Show on BBC1, I'll get right onto the Rapier Class :D ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Fri Jun 21, 2013 10:28 pm ----------------------------------- ^ Ah, wipeout, that was hella fun, at least what I can remember of it. In fact there were several Saturn/CD games that were pretty awesome, but many never even made it on the radar. Bah. Anyway, burning through a couple old strategy games, and also playing through my Grand Theft Auto games in preparation for GTA 5. Haven't really had a chance to fool with anything real new lately. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Jun 27, 2013 10:06 pm ----------------------------------- Today I started playing a game I'd been wanting to try for years - "Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future". The game was originally for Dreamcast, but I'm playing the PS2 version. "Ecco the Dolphin" and "Ecco the Dolphin II: The Tides of Time" for the Genesis are two of my all-time most favourite games! The fact that they never made the sequel to Ecco II (as it ends on a cliffhanger) saddens me to this day. "Defender of the Future" is a reboot/remake kinda deal. It was made by the same studio that made the original games, but without any input from Ecco creator Ed Annunziata (who apparantely is a guru at making great and hard as hell games - another game of his is "Chakan: The Forever Man). The story is somewhat of a remake of the stories of the first two games, borrowing many elements from them, but changing the names, designs, etc. I've beaten around 7 levels so far (and there are lots more to go, the original games had over 25 levels each) and the game does feel like the same thing as the old ones, only in 3D. It can be confusing sometimes as you explore the levels, but it is enjoyable. There are a couple of things I miss from the old games - one of them is the scare-factor. Believe it or not, the original Ecco could give me a heart attack. You swim calmly and all of a sudden something grabs you so quickly you can't even see it, Ecco shrieks in pain, the screen turns red and it starts you back at the level title screen. Here it's nowhere near as frightening and the music isn't as ambient, but it is still very good. I am enjoying the game so far, it's still difficult, it's still weird and it still captures the Ecco feeling! Unfortunately, Ecco hasn't had much luck with sequels as both the third part of the original series ("Ecco Jr" doesn't count as it's essentially a prequel and also it's targeted at pre-schoolers and doesn't have the awesome storylines and punishing difficulty) and "Ecco the Dolphin II: Sentinels of the Universe" (which was going to be sequel to "Defender of the Future") never got made. Here's hoping Ecco 3 does get released someday (as Annunziata has stated numerous times that the story was done, as well as designs, etc), even if a downloadable title for consoles. ----------------------------------- Burnout Fri Jun 28, 2013 3:34 am ----------------------------------- Today I started playing a game I'd been wanting to try for years - "Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future".

I still have that on Dreamcast! Though I never got around to beating it, I was notorious for buying a ton of games and never finishing them back then. I strive to complete every game I buy now, mostly for economic reasons lol. Just dont look at my steam catalog....its shameful how many I collect and never play when they go on sale. Finally got around to starting Uncharted 3, its fantastic thus far! Gearing up for next month when I have the money for The Last Of Us. Its my birthday gift to myself. ----------------------------------- gowett Sat Jun 29, 2013 4:43 am ----------------------------------- Been playing Injustice: Gods Among Us very good game! ----------------------------------- Burnout Wed Jul 03, 2013 2:34 am ----------------------------------- The Last Of us.

I love how ruthless Joel is in the sense that he will gun people down without a second though if necessary yet, although subdued, is a likeable guy. I also liked how come the end of the game he was truly selfish potentially dooming the human race just for one individual and the fact that he lied to Ellie's face and boy did she know it. I also thought that Joel would get gunned down when carrying Ellie from the hospital and if that had happened I probably would not have been satisfied as it's done a fair bit in media now. And the way Marlene was shot by Joel was the icing on the cake especially the justification of "you'll just come after her anyway". In spite of their survival it was quite a bleak ending. Ellie knows deep down that Joel has lied to her an you can only imagine how that will play out in the future. I've got to say I genuinely felt a range of emotions during the ending; fear, hope, sadness and even satisfaction as Joel sacrificed many for one. I'm kind of looking forward to the single player DLC that Naughty Dog are supposed to be doing although I hope that it doesn't ruin the ending which ended on such a high note. ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Jul 28, 2013 7:08 pm ----------------------------------- The ending was amazing. !SPOILERS! I love how ruthless Joel is in the sense that he will gun people down without a second though if necessary yet, although subdued, is a likeable guy. I also liked how come the end of the game he was truly selfish potentially dooming the human race just for one individual and the fact that he lied to Ellie's face and boy did she know it. I also thought that Joel would get gunned down when carrying Ellie from the hospital and if that had happened I probably would not have been satisfied as it's done a fair bit in media now. And the way Marlene was shot by Joel was the icing on the cake especially the justification of "you'll just come after her anyway". In spite of their survival it was quite a bleak ending. Ellie knows deep down that Joel has lied to her an you can only imagine how that will play out in the future. I've got to say I genuinely felt a range of emotions during the ending; fear, hope, sadness and even satisfaction as Joel sacrificed many for one. I'm kind of looking forward to the single player DLC that Naughty Dog are supposed to be doing although I hope that it doesn't ruin the ending which ended on such a high note. !MORE SPOILERS! All of that YES! Those last moments of the game, and the lie that Joel tells Ellie, was possibly the only way I could have ever wanted it to end. And then the cut to black....just perfect. You could totally see it in her eyes (another amazing feat by Naughty Dog, that you could see such emotion in a game) that she knew it was a lie. The grey area of survival was what made the game so great. Im not even sure if I want the story to be extended anymore for Joel and Ellie, at least not yet. It would be really cool to see random glimpses of the beginning, when the outbreak started, from other perspectives. Or even more sections like Ellie's hunting through the snow, that was really cool. I dunno though, I am still getting over beating the game. Ive barely tried multiplayer, gonna get into that a bit soon. Hard to get the GF off of Borderlands long enough to play though. ----------------------------------- Archive Wed Jul 31, 2013 7:59 am ----------------------------------- While I liked The last of us for its story and action pieces, the "puzzles" like the moving the plank/ladder thing and moving Ellie on that raft became repetitive fast. I wish they had spent more time coming up with complicated and varied problems to solve. Most of the time the puzzle was just to move a nearby box to get up to a higher level. ----------------------------------- Fummelcop Wed Jul 31, 2013 9:35 pm ----------------------------------- I also love this Game. It took me almost 30hours to beat it. I tried to be stealthy at all times. And I seem to be some kind of item/ weapon horder. After I finished I watched the credits and saw that some guys worked on the 3d tech. Did anyone play the game in 3d? I´ll try that on my next playthrough. Spoilers I think Joel didn´t sacrifice humanity just for ellie. 1. Since her condition was caused by a mutation in the fungus, maybe he thought it would spread to future generations anyways. 2. The Fireflies were a bunch of bastards and who knows, they might have screwed up the whole cure- thing and killed his little girl for no reason. 3. Most of the survivers you get to meet are just as bad as the infected, probably better to lose them. One last thought, he lost his daughter, because he trusted that soldier in one of the first scenes and probably didn´t want to take anymore risks. I thought ellies attitude towards the end was a little weird. It was almost like she just wanted to get her life over with and was dissappointed to still be around. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Aug 13, 2013 4:13 pm ----------------------------------- Hooked up the good 'ol Mega Drive and beat the crap out of people on "Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition". Damn, this game is just as good as it was 15 years ago! I also played a bit of "Rock 'n' Roll Racing", which I bought at a flea market a few weeks ago. Surprisingly good game and what's more surprising, the SEGA version looks a bit better than the SNES one. I doubt that it sounds better though. ----------------------------------- Sin_Valor Thu Aug 22, 2013 2:40 am ----------------------------------- I've been playing a lot of Rock Band 3, some Borderlands 2 and just got started playing Space Hulk on steam. Although, I really need to start learning some board games better. ----------------------------------- ROBOTCOP Thu Aug 22, 2013 3:21 am ----------------------------------- The last of us online is great fun, adds an extra experience to a great game...

I actually beat it! And with the true ending I mean, which requires you to beat the game twice in a row and fight through the last two levels with a specific weapon. ----------------------------------- Sean_001 Fri Aug 23, 2013 2:25 pm ----------------------------------- Lately, it's mostly been: Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon (Awesome 80's style game) State of Decay (2nd play through, taking my time now) Pac Man Dead Rising: 2 Case West. ----------------------------------- Burnout Sat Aug 31, 2013 5:52 pm ----------------------------------- Been playing Lost Planet 3, pretty great actually. Did not like the 2nd one and never got very far into it but the 3rd is fun and the story is interesting. Killzone Mercenary Beta has been my new crack, I can not wait until that comes out on the 10th! ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Sep 01, 2013 9:33 am ----------------------------------- Rayman Origins. It's great, challenging, responsive and it looks beautiful. Plus the animations make me smile. ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Sep 01, 2013 6:26 pm ----------------------------------- Rayman Origins. It's great, challenging, responsive and it looks beautiful. Plus the animations make me smile. Origins was amazing! I bought it when the Vita launched and ended up getting it for the 360 as well so I could play with the kids. I am super stoked for Rayman Legends. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Sep 03, 2013 6:59 am ----------------------------------- Rayman Origins. It's great, challenging, responsive and it looks beautiful. Plus the animations make me smile. Now that's a game I want to play badly! ----------------------------------- Josh Tue Sep 03, 2013 10:27 am ----------------------------------- Rayman Origins. It's great, challenging, responsive and it looks beautiful. Plus the animations make me smile. Now that's a game I want to play badly! It nice playing a decent 2D platformer that isn't Mario. In fact this has got more heart than the last ten years of Mario games if I'm honest. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Sep 04, 2013 4:05 pm ----------------------------------- I recently got my hands on a copy of the ultra rare "Megaman: The Wily Wars" for the Mega Drive/Genesis and started playing through it. It's basically 16-bit remakes of Megaman 1,2 and 3. After you beat them all on a single save slot you unlock "The Wily Tower" where you select weapons and items from the 3 games and go up against all-new levels and bosses. I played through Megaman 1-3 and I have to say, I do feel like I've missed out not having them back in the day (sure, I never saw 'em in stores either). I had already beaten the 8-bit original Megaman so there was not a whole lot new here. Megaman 2 and 3 were a different story though. At times, MM2 is brutally difficult (this coming from a guy who fancies he can beat Ninja Gaiden fairly easily) and I was really exhausted by the time it was over. Megaman 3 was significantly easier than Megaman 1 and 2. In fact, I wouldn't call it a difficult game - just a long one. The longest of the bunch. And it has LOTS of boss fights. SPOILERS for Megaman 3 below: First you fight the 8 robot masters. 4 of the levels also have a boss battle against Protoman (Breakman). Once you're done, 4 of the levels are unlocked again, this time with changes to them and now on each level you fight two robot masters from Megaman 2 in battle armor. After those 4 stages, there's another one where you fight Protoman, followed by Dr. Wily's castle. The first 3 levels of that have you fighting against one boss each. The fourth however has you fighting against all 8 robot masters from Megaman 3 in a row. The next level has a boss with 2 forms and health bars. And just when I thought I was done there was ANOTHER level which again had a boss fight with 2 forms and health bars. 36 bosses total. WOW!! END of SPOILERS I'll probably challenge the Wily Tower tomorrow :) ----------------------------------- Burnout Thu Sep 05, 2013 7:06 pm ----------------------------------- Rayman Legends is fucking EPIC. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Sep 06, 2013 7:45 am ----------------------------------- I tried an indie 8-bit PC game last night and I loved it. It's called "Oniken" and it really reminds me of "Shadow of the Ninja". ----------------------------------- Josh Tue Oct 15, 2013 8:22 pm ----------------------------------- Since my last gaming post I've played GTAV (obviously, Rayman Legends (you can't get enough of a good thing) and I'm currently playing DMC: Devil May Cry (the reboot). The latter isn't too bad. Dante strikes me as a bit of a bitch but the game has a really good look to it, with some really decent environments. I got it for a tenner so I can't really complain. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Oct 16, 2013 6:13 am ----------------------------------- I beat "Megaman 7" on the SNES the other night. I really enjoyed it. And the night after that I beat "TMNT 2: The Arcade Game" on the NES. ----------------------------------- Burnout Sat Oct 19, 2013 7:59 pm ----------------------------------- I am trying to beat GTAV before Batman Arkham Origins comes out for the PS3 and Vita, then I will most likely just get on GTAV every other day or so to screw around and play some online matches....at least for a little time. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Oct 20, 2013 2:54 pm ----------------------------------- I'm going through Devil May Cry HD at the moment. Then I'll be on to sequels. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Oct 22, 2013 2:28 pm ----------------------------------- "Phantom 2040" on the Genesis/Mega Drive. I love it. And quite a bit of replay value... many choices to make throughout the game and the box states 20 possible endings. ----------------------------------- Stu-uk Tue Oct 22, 2013 5:48 pm ----------------------------------- Been playing a lot of Farcry 3 Blood dragon of late, its hilarious and very much the whole 80s package! :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZUueizrR0A ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Oct 23, 2013 10:23 pm ----------------------------------- I played through "Phantom 2040" and got 4 different endings so far. Still haven't managed to get to the best one, but I'm close and I'm pretty sure what I've missed out on doing in order to get it. It's a terrific game! Kinda like Metroid, but split into chapters and has an overworld map for quick access to different places throughout the city of Metropia (although they are still interconnected and you can travel from one place to the other). I also beat "Kolibri" on the Sega 32X. I gotta say, Ed Annunziata used to make some gaming masterpieces back in the day... ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Oct 27, 2013 9:05 pm ----------------------------------- Batman Arkham Origins is pretty good. I wanted it to be amazingly better than Arkham City, but I will settle for it being just a good. Also, Arkham Origins Blackgate on the Vita is fucking cool. Dare I say I am enjoying the gameplay just slightly more than its big brother. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Oct 28, 2013 7:05 pm ----------------------------------- Burnout, I'm eagerly waiting for the Vita version to arrive in my hands in a few days. I love Metroid-style gameplay and when they add Batman to the mix... well, it's one game I wouldn't want to miss!! I'm currently playing the new "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" game for the Wii, based on the current cartoon. Not bad, could've been better, but I'm enjoying the simple hack'n'slash/beat 'em up gameplay. And played a bit of "Golden Axe III" last night. Not a bad game, but man, that hit detection is bad. ----------------------------------- razgriz21 Fri Nov 22, 2013 2:19 am ----------------------------------- Got bored with playing Grand Theft Auto V for the 2nd time so I've been plundering The Last of Us for the 2nd time on Survival Difficulty. I must say, it's even more challenging. Also, it hits me that the dynamic between Joel and Ellie is more compelling then most movies these days. On the personal computer side, I've been playing Blood (from Monolith). think Duke Nukem with an occult like setting and tons of BLOOD. Heavily recommended Another DOS recommendation would be Crusader No Remorse/No Regret. Both games are fast paced and entertaining. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Fri Nov 22, 2013 8:39 pm ----------------------------------- I'm sitting on Dynasty Warriors 7, Saints Row 4, GTA5, Batman Orgins, The Last Of Us, and Beyond Two Souls. Now if I could find the time to play them all. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Nov 27, 2013 9:37 pm ----------------------------------- "Rockman 3: Dr. Wily No Saigo!?" (aka "Megaman 3"). I recently got the Japanese version at a flea market, in a lot with a bunch of other Famicom games for 2$ and I was quite happy since part 3 is my favourite. Played through it again and had a good time :) ----------------------------------- OCP-001 Thu Nov 28, 2013 5:08 am ----------------------------------- Hi there, I've been playing a lot of Tenchu Wrath of heaven and Fatal Shadows on ps2. These 2 games has a lot of replay value, specially the second one. ----------------------------------- GNracer2000 Thu Nov 28, 2013 4:39 pm ----------------------------------- I have been diving into Skylanders Swap Force and Disney Infinity with my kids.

I will possibly get a PS4 next year. ----------------------------------- Josh Sat Nov 30, 2013 10:16 pm ----------------------------------- Battlefield 4, Assassin's Creed IV and Metal Gear Rising: Revengance. ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Dec 01, 2013 12:35 am ----------------------------------- I have been diving into Skylanders Swap Force and Disney Infinity with my kids. I'm looking to get Lego Avengers and maybe Scribblenauts Unmasked. I only have a Wii U. I will possibly get a PS4 next year. Just picked up Disney Infinity for my kids, hoping they will love it. I think its awesome, but I am old and lame LOL. What system do your kids play on? Mine have a 360. I have been playing through Batman a second time and doing challenges. Also still playing Rayman Legends. Wishing I had a new game though... ----------------------------------- GNracer2000 Sun Dec 01, 2013 1:13 am ----------------------------------- Burnout, we play on the Wii U. My kids have a blast with it. The only drawback is they don't have a lot of what they call playsets which are the mission based stories. They have some figures which you can only use in the toy box which can be aggravating. Still a fun game for kids. Have you been playing the origins or city Batman? ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Dec 01, 2013 11:57 pm ----------------------------------- I just opened up and "Tested" Infinity for the kids while they were at their moms place for the weekend. Me and my GF had sooo much fun! We ordered a few figures online and have yet to get them in the mail. It was Wreck it ralph, Jack Skelington, Davy Jones, and Venelope. I really want to get the buzz lightyear, mostly so I can play the space ranger playset lol. The incredibles playset is so cool. Wish I had that game on my PS3 now! I have been playing Origins, I beat City a while back. I still love the combat, but the rest of the game is kind of a grind fest. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Dec 02, 2013 9:37 am ----------------------------------- If ever there was a time to buy farcry blood dragon it is today...

Grabbed some used games on the cheap Halo4, ico/colocusus HD and God of War3, will be getting to those soone enough ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Dec 03, 2013 5:09 pm ----------------------------------- I've been going back and playing some halo reach and halo 3 and I have to say... All these "last" current gen console games they put out like Halo 4 and GTA 5 look prettier than their last incarnations but they suffer from a terrible framerate because of it I guess. Halo 3 and reach actually play better than 4 if you go back and look at them. I guess it is pushing the limits of the last gen consoles. Any Halo, any time, I'd be down to play. Pretty sure Halo is dying though. I am really thinking Destiny will blow it out of the water. ----------------------------------- razgriz21 Thu Dec 05, 2013 3:03 am ----------------------------------- Replaying Mass Effect 3. Wondering if I should download Leviathan or Omega? I'm also going to reinstall Duke Nukem 3D and Syndicate Wars. Maybe I'll finish Deus Ex Human Revolution while I'm at it. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Jan 14, 2014 9:38 pm ----------------------------------- I just finished "The Subspace Emissary" - the story mode of "Super Smash Bros Brawl" on Wii. Considering this isn't a Netherrealm game, I was quite surprised by an 8-hour long Story mode. This is the first time I play Smash Bros and I definetely enjoyed it. Now to get some friends to come over and try out the multiplayer. ----------------------------------- kodatarule Tue Jan 14, 2014 10:45 pm ----------------------------------- That has to be the Metal Gear Rising Revengeance on PC.Enjoyed it great story,great gameplay and many robocop refferences :D :D :D .

What can I say, it may have been slightly repetitive, but it was fun (and bloody) as hell!! The gameplay is solid, the humor - great and even though I'm more of a rock guy, the hip-hop soundtrack was quite fitting. It's worth checking out, if you've got a Wii or Wii U. ----------------------------------- Burnout Sun Jan 26, 2014 3:44 am ----------------------------------- I just marathoned the crap out of DMC: Devil May Cry and dam is it a fun ride! I only played it after it was free on PS+ and the game totally snuck up on me as being AMAZING! I played like 20 mins of the older games and they were not for me, but I may have to go back just because I loved the world and gameplay of this one. Can anyone out there tell me how the older iterations and this new one compare? ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sun Jan 26, 2014 5:20 am ----------------------------------- I don't think I've played any of the devil may cry games.

Frankly, I like the older ones somewhat better, but I haven't really played through them - just checked them out for a couple of minutes each. The new DMC couldn't grab me in terms of design... Played "Sunset Riders" on the Genesis last night! Good, if short, game. ----------------------------------- kodatarule Mon Jan 27, 2014 7:40 am ----------------------------------- Well playing Tomb Raider(2013) again :D,this will be my 4th time to beat it.I love this game so emotional so epic,personally one of the best games ever!

Fuck it in the face. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Feb 08, 2014 6:42 pm ----------------------------------- Played "Golden Axe II" on the Genesis/Mega Drive for the first time in a decade! Definetely much easier than the other two games. Also beat "DooM" on the 32X. I actually sat down and played it from start to finish and got the final stage that you can't play if you use the level select and therefore - I also got the best ending. Also, feel kinda proud that I only died on the final level. They don't make 'em like they used to :) ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Thu Feb 13, 2014 7:47 pm ----------------------------------- I recently played Dragonball Z Battle of Z, it sucked. I'm not a DBZ person, but man the controls and gameplay were just awful. Couldn't get into it. Just frustrating and annoying. ----------------------------------- razgriz21 Sat Feb 22, 2014 3:55 pm ----------------------------------- Recently picked up a copy of Soldier of Fortune 1. They don't make them like they used to. It is a great run and gun with some annoying levels (Siberia comes to mind) ----------------------------------- Josh Thu Mar 06, 2014 11:42 am ----------------------------------- I'm rocking Syndicate and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. How I didn't buy the latter sooner is beyond even me. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Mar 18, 2014 9:53 pm ----------------------------------- Since I hadn't had the chance to sit down and play a game that lasts more than 2 hours in a long time, I decided to threat myself to some late-night sessions of "Alien Trilogy" on the Playstation. I bought the game some time ago on a whim, I hadn't played it before, but it seemed decent at the very least. And it is. The levels are not too long, so it's good for short playing sessions. And while it is a Doom/Duke 3d-esque shooter, they did manage to pull off an Alien vibe properly, with poorly-lit levels that serve well for jump scares and not enough ammo, forcing the player to either feel scared or helpless when chased by a Xenomorph, if you're stuck with a regular gun only. Also, I really like the music, fits the game very well and helps establish a good atmosphere. I've been playing it for 3 nights now and I just got through Level 12 - my first battle with the Alien Queen. And she got a great boss theme: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TI1oOAUKfo&list=PLtRuYKzs3Kx9rCpqenBY_bWQFYUmMiizM ----------------------------------- JadeETC Tue Mar 18, 2014 10:28 pm ----------------------------------- I've been really into Rolling Thunder for the NES lately. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Wed Mar 19, 2014 5:43 am ----------------------------------- I'm rocking Syndicate and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. How I didn't buy the latter sooner is beyond even me. Playing Blood Dragon was such a trip. So many movie and pop culture references crammed in there. They should do more stuff like that. ----------------------------------- kodatarule Wed Mar 19, 2014 10:14 am ----------------------------------- Well playing Tomb Raider(2013) again :D,this will be my 4th time to beat it.I love this game so emotional so epic,personally one of the best games ever! I recommend it to all who like action,adventure,emotional games,but please multiplayer is bad dont play it. I second this, Its really one of the best third person action games I've ever played.

I can't wait to get it for the next gen systems down the road. Mate I finally beat Bioshock Infinite and oh boy what a game...The ending is as happy as it is depressing.I don't want to spoil it , some didnt understand it but the message is only one and they tried to remove it from there but they just couldnt escape.I double recommend it.Oh and 80's lovers look at how I mixed some gameplay from bio infinite(to test my bandicam) with some old school music it suited it perfectly not only 80's music but 90's also :P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx6kYPASkPg . ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Thu Mar 20, 2014 1:06 am ----------------------------------- grabbed a used copy of Tomb Raider HD version for PS4. my god what a great game this is turning out to be, and man is it beautiful. For a game originally on last gen, it looks like they built this for current systems. rock solid frame rate so far (except on cut scenes) but the atmosphere and tension is great. I also think the controls and overall mechanics are leaps over uncharted. everything feels so crisp.. And while Im not one for gimmicks.. I totally love all the extra bells and whistles they added to the ps4 version. Like striking up on the touchpad to flint your torch. or having your controller give off red ,yellow glows when you are walking with your torch lit. it even gives off a bright flash when shooting your weapons. hearing your walkie talkie conversations coming from the controller also pulls you in, as does hearing the clicking of an empty weapon... best Tomb raider yet., ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Mar 24, 2014 8:16 pm ----------------------------------- I wrapped up "Alien Trilogy" the other day and sank my teeth into "Operation Winback" on the PS2 (enchanced port of an N64 game). It's really fun, though I think I'm playing it a bit too careful, so we'll see how that's gonna turn out in the end (the game has multiple endings depending on the time you take to beat it). I love the cover-based-shoot-out gameplay. Reminds me of an old-school arcade rail-shooter. I also recieved my first Wii U game today - "Injustice: Gods Among Us". The game has been getting astounding reviews and my best friend (who owns the Vita version) highly recommended it as well. That, combined with the fact that it was discounted from 109.99 to 25.99 sealed the deal. I played a couple of battles and either games today demand you to be way faster with combos than back in the day (think SF 2 and 3, MK 1-3) or there's a slight delay. Either way, I suck at combos in this game... ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Mar 24, 2014 8:24 pm ----------------------------------- I haven't played gods among us but I watched all the cinematic parts of the game put together to make a couple hour movie on youtube. The graphics look amazing and the story was good. Like I said I haven't played the game but maybe you're trying to do the combos too fast. I know you're a seasoned gamer but it's probably more a timing than super speed thing. Just an idea. :) ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Mar 25, 2014 8:45 am ----------------------------------- I haven't played gods among us but I watched all the cinematic parts of the game put together to make a couple hour movie on youtube.

I'm not really used to the way "new" games are played :b As for the story, I hope it's good, I played some single battles, so I haven't started it yet. ----------------------------------- Josh Tue Mar 25, 2014 1:07 pm ----------------------------------- I've recently gone through Saints Row IV and Infamous: Second Son. Infamous feels like a really pretty version of the second game and I don't go for the protagonist as much as I'd like. Saints Row IV is more of the same, crammed with pop culture references and good humour. ----------------------------------- kodatarule Tue Mar 25, 2014 6:37 pm ----------------------------------- Well I went through gears of war again :D that is my favorite franchise this days bioshock I liked 2 and really really liked infinite like the standalone game I would really enjoy on it's own I mean it is something unique...on the other hand as a good reboot for long forgotten games I would recommend the Tomb Raider and finally but not least the franchise I really liked but not that much was Alan Wake. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Mar 25, 2014 7:16 pm ----------------------------------- So I started the Injustice story mode and it's definetely a pleasant surprise. Quite well thought-out, considering this is a fighting game. As for my problems with the combos, I'm getting better. Out of all the characters I've tried, Batman's actually the most difficult to play as, so that's why I was mislead in the beginning. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Tue Mar 25, 2014 7:21 pm ----------------------------------- I saw Injustice on a Conan 'Clueless Gamer' review some time back, it did look pretty awesome. Glad to hear the story part of it is good too. Ahhh, combos and furious button mashing.. I remember those days. :) ----------------------------------- JohnBoyAdvance Wed Mar 26, 2014 11:18 am ----------------------------------- I love Injustice. Burned through the story mode a while back. I got a Xbone. With Titanfall. Was super disappointed that it doesn't have any sort of Single Player or Offline play. So yeah there's that. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Mar 26, 2014 12:24 pm ----------------------------------- I love Injustice. Burned through the story mode a while back.

The way this new xbox is going I wouldn't be surprised or upset if this was microsoft's last outing in gaming consoles. Everything about the xbox one is moving farther and farther from what an actual gaming machine should be and it would appear that all these new games are all flash and no substance. I am so glad I don't own a new console. These new systems and game libraries so far are completely pathetic and way overpriced. I don't think I will be supporting microsoft consoles anymore and I have been a huge fan of original xbox. 360 is pathetic in it's own right. I have owned so many of them due to them failing. Let one of these new consoles sit around 15 years collecting dust and see if it fires up like an old NES... I highly doubt it. Stupid ass new 60 dollar games that only work online. Derp der der, my internet is down today... GUess I can't play any shiny new games because they decided to not include single player... Fucking pathetic. I hear Titanfall is an overhyped trainwreck anyway.

Its not a completely bad console, Loving Killer Instinct at the moment as well. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Thu Mar 27, 2014 12:16 pm ----------------------------------- So Killer Instinct is free with 1 fighter to use right? But you pay to unlock other characters? I'm not sure exactly how that works? Is there more than a few characters now? See Grand Theft Auto online is a "free to play" online game where they keep releasing free DLC but they charge big in game money for the DLC cars and stuff. They also happen to sell "packs" of in game money for a hefty premium. THey also constantly take away higher paying things to do online so money is a pain in the ass to get. I don't like microtransactions. I would rather pay for good DLC and not have to worry about having money in a game. I have billions of dollars in story mode... Online I usually sit around 100,000 bucks. Some cars cost 1,000,000 bucks. To buy a 1,250,000 cash card costs about 15 dollars. I think it is an overpriced scam ripoff even though they aren't forced on you it makes the entire game design based on you buying them or grinding repetitive crap for hours on end. If the content was there to enjoy the time spent earning money it would be different but anything fun in this game takes money away, doesn't give. Microtransactions are ruining the future of video games in my opinion. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Mar 27, 2014 1:41 pm ----------------------------------- So Killer Instinct is free with 1 fighter to use right?

Taking my time and enjoying it. Also got the Bioshock infinite add on, burial at sea, part 1 for half off. If I had paid the full 15 bucks I would have been very disappointed. As it is I'm just a little disappointed. Wasn't bad. Wasn't great. Still wanting to play the new Thief and the new Stick of truth south park game. Redbox has them, Could probably beat them for 4 bucks a piece. May have to do that. ----------------------------------- Sin_Valor Mon Apr 07, 2014 3:23 am ----------------------------------- I've only been playing Rock Band Blitz recently, I was surprised how may Blitz coins I've accumulated when I wasn't playing it for about a year or two. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Apr 24, 2014 5:34 pm ----------------------------------- "I wanna be the Guy: Gaiden" - masochism level: over 9000.

Extremely difficult? Yes. Enjoyable? Yes, but even better if you have buddies around. One would play, the others would watch in anticipation how far the player will get, then he'd die, all would laugh at the over-the-top and unexpected way he was killed, he'd try again, he'd curse, the others would laugh... good times Only thing it's missing is the suicide button from the first one. Gone is the scary feeling of getting far and then someone beside you pushing "Q" right before a Save point :D ----------------------------------- kodatarule Thu Apr 24, 2014 8:30 pm ----------------------------------- Playing some Cold,cold heart in Arkham Origins :) . ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Fri Apr 25, 2014 12:22 am ----------------------------------- finishing up the "paper trail" side mission in infamous second son. Its a fun little gimmick where you take photos of murder scenes and upload them to a website . From there you go web surfing based on clues and such. Second son was pretty short so this adds a nice bit of depth to the game.. that and killer instinct.. I also agree the Xbone sucks only really picked it up because my friends dont want to lose their gamerscores lol.

I know it's a hard game but you do a bunch of levels that are tricky and then the difficulty goes vertical on your ass. Ah well, practice makes perfect. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Apr 26, 2014 6:28 pm ----------------------------------- Gathered the gang at my place and we had some gaming fun.

Watch Dogs looked like it had a lot of promise, but I knew it wouldn't live up to that promise because it's a Ubisoft game. I bought it anyway. It's not a terrible game, but for a game with over 90 awards, it shouldn't have gotten a 6/10 from me. ----------------------------------- hockey405 Mon Jun 16, 2014 6:02 am ----------------------------------- Zelda 1 on the nes Charlies Murder xbox live game cause its free ----------------------------------- Sin_Valor Mon Jun 16, 2014 12:35 pm ----------------------------------- I didn't really play so many games, I just bought a crap ton of them for dirt cheap on GOG. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Jun 18, 2014 2:56 pm ----------------------------------- "Batman" on NES arrived the other day. A bootleg Famicom version of it was the first video-game my parents ever got me, back in 1999 and it's one of my all time favourite games, so I decided to buy an official NES version as well. Played it and beat it in around 20 minutes with only one life lost, which, I think is my best playthrough in terms of speed and dying (I've made a no-death run some time ago, but it took quite some time). Then, I played through "Megaman 3" again over a couple of days, as I just love it too damn much. And now just getting off "Terminator 2" for NES. Frankly, it's not as bad as I remember it. Cheap in a few places, but otherwise follows the movie well and is absolutely playable. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Jun 18, 2014 6:45 pm ----------------------------------- Destiny Demo Mannnnn..even though at its core destiny is just Halo 2.0...it was the first thing i thought about when i woke up..i havent had that feeling about a game since like halo1...its already just so fuckin addictive...on top of that the graphics remind me of that game "Rage" but on steroids..and the sound effects rival that of battlefield...this ones gonna be a keeper Did you preorder to get the beta access or something??? Are you playing on next or current gen? This game and GTA 5, so far, are the only reasons I will be getting a new console. But I really really want to wait until Destiny is finished to get into it. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jun 27, 2014 2:03 pm ----------------------------------- I was playing "Zombi U", but now I feel the need to throw the game into a fire. If you've heard of the game, you probably know the gimmick where you techincally have unlimited lives, but each is played with a new character. So when one of your characters dies you have to go find them (and kill them if they were turned into zombie) to collect all the items you were carrying when playing as them. Problem is, I kinda suffered a game-breaking glitch. I'd managed to keep one of my guys alive for quite some time now and was really careful about the way I play (so I wouldn't have to "level-up" another guy). As I was playing, I open a door I needed to, the whole game went apeshit, all textures disappeared, my character screamed as if dying (though I could still turn around and use my inventory), the game saved and that was it... I restarted and after some heavy loading, it worked, but now I'm playing with a new guy... and the corpse of my previous guy isn't where he "died", so I can't get my items and continue the game. Damn... I was not too far into the game, maybe about 3 hours, but it's stuff like this that make me wonder if I even want to bother playing this ever again. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Jul 26, 2014 7:04 pm ----------------------------------- If you have xbox live Gold you can now play the DESTINY beta and it is well worth downloading. I can see this will be the next game to consume me. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Jul 26, 2014 7:21 pm ----------------------------------- I tried it on PS3 at a friend's place. Couldn't really get into it, but then again, MMOs and FPS games never were my favourite types of games. It seemed nice, but not really spectacular or anything... I've been playing 'Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed' on Wii U these past two days. Racing games aren't my favourite, but this is quite fun and I haven't even got to the tracks and characters I'm interested in yet. I've also been playing 'Shinobi' on the 3DS and it's awesome as well. Very old-school feel, a complete cheese-fest and over-the-top sequences. I love it!! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Jul 26, 2014 7:28 pm ----------------------------------- Well fan it is really the next evolutionary step of Halo. It is Halo just different... I think it is great so far. The shooting is spot on and the progression system is something to keep me interested. There is going to be all kinds of things that aren't in this beta. Co-op missions with zero matchmaking screens, just jumping in and out of action. I am finding it very enjoyable, but I have been a fan of the series sice day one. I'm dedicated at this point. Bungie= always well done and worth every penny. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Sat Jul 26, 2014 7:36 pm ----------------------------------- I never quite got the fuss with Destiny but I was interested. My sis has been trying to get the demo to work on my bro-in-law's 360 for a minute now, but she it goin' Thursday (It would load up on my bro-in-law's account, but not hers? Bah) - SO, I was able to hit that for a few minutes. Ignoring the point I'm lost without a keyboard and mouse, I do have to say this shit does rule. I definitely got a Halo thing with it and that would have been alright but I love the progress set-up more than anything, it's a hook for sure. Plus as said, there will be only more as it goes on. Still, the game itself was solid and beautfiul, and I agree with MC about the sound. Wish I could've had more than a few minutes, but what can ya do? Anyway, just the taste I had was fuggen awesome. Wish we could try the beta, but my bro-in-law is about as poor as me, so no Gold sub.. Hell I got a little try, I'm good for now. ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Sat Jul 26, 2014 10:51 pm ----------------------------------- RoboCop Mobile Game I won my first event. :) I got suit 2.6. It is gold, and has pulse wall and charge shot. Pulse wall fires a wall of electricity at enemies, and charge shot randomly turns shots electric. Awesome suit. :D I'm so glad I got it. A funny thing is, it has a bigger crotch than the others. I think it's a combination of tighter arm and leg armour and a bigger crotch. Now I need to get 200 glu credits for when the event with the grenade launcher comes again. Mutants: Genetic Gladiaters I had to uninstall the app from my smartphone. :cry: I miss Mutants Genetic Gladiaters on my mobile. :cry: I can only play it on the pc now. :( I ran out of space on my phone, despite getting a bigger sd card. It was a choice between Robocop game and M:GG. And robocop is only on mobile for me. M:GG is on facebook as well. So its ok. Bred a gold enforcer, bronze azura, bronze mantidroid. Bought a silver general grevious.

I was'nt interested in it, on release. BJ is very handsome and awesome, though. And the wielding 2 giant guns is cool. And the setting looks interesting. I don't really buy the premise though. The goal seems a tad, off. Any interest I had in it was killed by the gimmicky, bitty, parts, I saw. And it was killed stone dead from watching my husband take a really long time to kill the London Monitor. I saw that, and thought, 'hell no!' If you like the music, you should see Miracle Of Sounds absolutely awesome song! It's one of his best. It almost makes me want to play it. Then I remember the london monitor fight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsgEPtrpfps I can't borrow my husbands copy anyway. Which is the only way I'd play it. Like I did with CoD: Ghosts. His Wolfanstein: New Order is PS4. I borrowed, or he gave me, his PS3 COD: Ghosts, and has a PS4 COD: Ghosts for himself. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Jul 27, 2014 8:23 am ----------------------------------- Well fan it is really the next evolutionary step of Halo.

I never did like 'Halo'. Not that I've played anything besides the first two, but they just got really stale and boring after a couple of days. Out of the Bungie games I've played, I think 'Oni' is my favourite. ----------------------------------- Josh Sun Jul 27, 2014 5:34 pm ----------------------------------- I've played a fair bit of the Destiny beta and it's fun but by no means groundbreaking. It's Borderlands by way of Halo but believe me that ain't a bad thing, but anyone who says it's revolutionary and the most incredible thing they've every played have either played very few video games or just have low expectations. Still, the look of the world is stunning (not necessarily the graphics but the aesthetic), it's fun and it's different in terms of what other multiplayer games I own offer of which I primarily play Battlefield. I very much doubt I'll bother with PVP but for co-op ass kickery I, and a good group of buddies, are there. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Jul 28, 2014 1:18 am ----------------------------------- You also can't judge it based on the beta. I'm not mr. Bungie here saying everything they do is gold but this actually is groundbreaking. Jumping into action with very little loading is a plus. But your statement is very flawed on many levels. I have played many video games and just based off of an unfinished Beta I realize how great the game is. PvP multiplayer does not unlock until you are level 6 or 7 so if you haven't played that through the crucible then you are missing out. So far it is the best shooter I have played in ages. The enemies and bosses are leveled to YOU. It is sick and I can't wait for space battles either. Borderlands ain't got shit on this. The shooting mechanics are spot on. It feels right. So many games lately have not lived up to their hype. This one does. Agree or not, play enough games and you see which ones are made correctly, and this is one of them. It's obviously made to be used with a keyboard and mouse, but a controller in the right hands makes for a formidable foe and/or ally. I get it if you aren't stoked on it, but it is the real deal. For me. Can't wait to fulfill my destiny, lol. Story is intriguing and interesting as well. ----------------------------------- Josh Tue Jul 29, 2014 2:24 pm ----------------------------------- You also can't judge it based on the beta.

I gave the multiplayer a go and it was standard stuff and didn't interest me anywhere near as much as the main component, but I'm not getting it for the PVP matches anyway. I want to party up and shoot the breeze while playing. You find it groundbreaking and that's great. I played Borderlands way back when, wasn't blown away by that and am seeing more of the same in Destiny, right down to the abilities which recharge over time, the experience bar at the bottom of the screen, the vehicles, loot crates etc. I could also comment on how Bungie has reused ideas from Halo such as the Ghost pretty much being Guilty Spark, The Fallen being The Covenant, The Hive being The Flood, The Sparrow being a groovier looking Ghost or even the way the enemies run around with the same dim witted attitude in Halo. I'm not going to call what you wrote flawed because it ain't, and neither is what I wrote because it's just opinions. But hey, we're both buying it so Bungie gets our money. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Jul 29, 2014 8:39 pm ----------------------------------- OK I concede, flawed wasn't the correct word. You are right, these are just opinions... And yours is flawed Ducky! :b Just kiddin, but it also looks like they took the beta access away. Fuckin tease. Bungie pulled up their skirt, showed me that they were wearing no panties, then ran off, expecting me not to chase them down, tackle them, and have my way with them. Tramps. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Jul 30, 2014 10:14 am ----------------------------------- After soooo much time I finally got to play "Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge" on the Wii U last night. I've been DYING for new Ninja Gaiden action ever since I first beat the 2004 one on my X-Box (and then beat it again and again and again... and then beat "Black")... Still, since I had no way of playing the second one I just waited for the third and finally got it... The good thing is that it is still a thoroughly enjoyable action game (so far). The bad thing is that they ruined the combat. It's much more chaotic, much more button-mashing, the use of the 'block' feature is severely downplayed, the dodging's messed up (rolling has been replaced with a slide), the enemy encounters overstay their welcome and exploration is reduced too, compared to the first game. Oh, and Ninja Gaiden was hard enough even when I could carry healing items around. Sure, this time your health is refilled right after a battle, but still... This is all just based on the first level though. The game updated to v.1.3.0 automatically and unlocked a ton of new stuff - two extra characters, costumes for all characters, new modes and so on, so there's plenty more to see and try out. I just hope that it doesn't disappoint after all this waiting. ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Sat Aug 23, 2014 2:30 pm ----------------------------------- Robocop mobile game. Did some events and got all the suits. And a awesome gun called the HV3 Ares. The suit that fires rockets is very good. Got to tier 5. Fallout New Vegas Made a unarmed woman but she got stuck on drunk, deleted her. Made a pistols, one handed guns, woman. She got stuck in the tops casino. deleted her. Made a energy weapons women. No bugs yet. I was going to make her shotguns, but then I remembered the shotguns ar'nt that good. And I had'nt made a energy weapons courier for a while. CoD Ghosts is dead online. :( It's not fair! I want to play multiplayer on that! Maybe I willl trim my characters on forsaken world down a bit and focus on 2 or 3. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Aug 23, 2014 4:18 pm ----------------------------------- I finished "Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge" on the Wii U about two weeks ago and I can honestly say that I really enjoyed it! As you can see from my previous post, based on the first level, I was quite worried about how they altered so many familiar things, but you get used to it and beyond that is an exciting, fast-paced action game. The story is decent and seems to have some more thought put into it, though nothing mind blowing. What I really loved is that the game is crammed with all kinds of references to both its prequels and the original NES trilogy. As for the combat, once you upgrade your weapons and unlock new ones, it gets better. New enemy types are also introduced. The difficulty is substantially dumbed down. I died about 3 times during a regular battle, a bit more during boss battles, but not too often. Bosses can be quite deadly and difficult, but the game has added checkpoints during some of the bosses and there's also the option to switch difficulty mid-game. Overall, a pleasant surprise and well worth the wait. Glad my initial reaction wasn't true. I'm yet to try out the multiplayer and some of the characters. ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Sun Aug 31, 2014 5:40 pm ----------------------------------- RoboCop Mobile Game Did a event and got a yellow and black forest camo rocket suit. Got to tier 5. Fallout: New Vegas Went partway into Lonesome Road. Got some weapons, gear, etc. Did some companion quests. Doing Old World Blues. I found things I did know existed. Sometimes it's good to leave a RPG, and come back later. You find new stuff. She is energy weapons, so she can use the guns more than others. Found the Buckeroo Banzai easter egg. I may try and film it, as my first video on youtube. Got the Made a robot bent on destruction feat. I never got the nightstalker and robot splicing disc before. It made a robobrain mark 3, that was intent on fighting. That is a scary game to play at night. Some stuff surprises you. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Sep 09, 2014 6:00 am ----------------------------------- http://i1022.photobucket.com/albums/af349/ImpendingDemise/destiny.jpg as soon as this long download stops I will be playing this. Went to th emidnight release not knowing that since I pre paid I got to cut in line. Saw a few people move up to the front then heard them calling numbers. I had a number. I wandered up and got right out with my game. Wasn't there long, maybe 10 minutes. Interesting crowd... ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Sep 30, 2014 5:53 pm ----------------------------------- Destiny :( Well shit. Not a bad effort but it is so ridiculously flawed that it is almost beyond belief. I had hoped this was a game changer. It is not. The long and short of the matter is that this is yet another unfinished project sold as a whole but later to be filled in for a price. They want this thing to go on for 10 years. But in order for somebody to care about something to continue on there has to be something to care about. Some meat to the story and character development. There is none. This isn't even an introductory chapter. It is a paragraph in the middle of a book somewhere. What you see or saw in any trailer for this game is all the story you get. Nothing else is explained except in arbitrary cards unlocked at bungies website. When you complete certain exp milestones you unlock cards to read on their site. Fucking stupid and doesn't work because you don't care enough about the story to even go read them even though I did. The fucking extra cards should not be the whole story they should accompany it. It is just plain bad. Long story short is the game they were making about a year ago was almost completely scrapped and reworked as a soulless, storyless, mass market call of dutyesque shooter with nothing else to offer except the hunt for better gear. Nothing is fucking told. They took a complete game and cut it down to a third of what it was and are planning on selling the rest within the next 6 months or so for roughly the cost of the game all over again. You have to establish stories, characters, and worlds before anybody cares enough to keep forking money over to you. Fuck it, ,there is more to be said but there is nothing to work for except gear. Nothing else. NOTHING! They better pull their heads out of their asses. There is literally more story missions on disc but are blocked off by doors. People have glitched past these doors and fought the next bosses in the story and everything. They will unlock the doors upon paying for the next "dlc" and you can go in. What the fuck? ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Tue Sep 30, 2014 6:08 pm ----------------------------------- I phone had to be restarted. I started it afrom factory. Now that wierd space eating problem has gone. I think the piece of crap google play services went wrong. It sat there, like a fat toad in a well, eating all the space. I lost my saves on the robocop mobile game. :( I lost all the suits and weapons I had won. :( I restarted the game when it was being weird. And the saves were there after the restart. So it's okay. I got some suits and 1 gun back. Got further in Fallout New Vegas. left the brains alive at the end of old world blues. I did'nt want to kill Dr 8 this time. Of them all, he's the least bad. His field is sonic research. And his only flaw, aside from the ruthless experimenting they all do, is he's really into masturbating. He's friendly from the start, also. He's the only one I felt a bit bad about killing. So this time they survived. Because I don't use guns much, I finally got to use the K9 gun properly. I put 2 mods on it as the K9 gun, and then upgraded it to FIDO. It's a cruel gun that disturbs me quite a lot. but it's ok, and powerful. Also useful for telling if enemies are there. It's a dogs brain put in a gun. It has metal ears that move and it makes dog noises. It tells you if enemies are there by growling and barking. It will be useful for when I do the lonesome road dlc. If I go about wearing the aural stealth suit and using the FIDO gun, I'll be finding enemies fast. The stealth suit talks and is female. Went back to the mojave, did some quests. Got to get some more companions recruited. Got dungeons and dragons online going properly. Did some quests with my bard. I'm going to make her as agile as I can. Put mutants genetic gladiaters back on my phone. Yay! :D Now I can get money faster and claim the daily 5 gold reward. Put CocoPPaPlay on my phone. :D It's a absolutely adorable avatar game. It's tso very cute! It's as close to tinier me as I've seen. It probabely IS tinier me! I loved tinier me so much! I was so sad when it was shut down in europe. :( I miss tinier me a lot. It's makes me feel happy like tinier me did. :) ----------------------------------- Josh Tue Sep 30, 2014 9:17 pm ----------------------------------- Destiny :( Well shit.

I told you so :b In all seriousness I know where you're coming from. While I've had fun with it as soon as I hit level 30 I'm done, because I'm sure as shit not paying an extra Ł35 for DLC which amount to something like 4 story missions and 4 strike missions, all of which were probably cut from the game just to resel back to Joe Punter. It's a real shame becasue under all the hype it's a very generic game which doesn't innovate in the slightest, but I won't deny I've had some fun with it but I think that's due to playing it with mates. If I were doing it single player or with randoms I wouldn't have bothered. But we are still in the early stages of it's life cycle so I have faith Bungie will imptove on parts of the game when they get the feedback. Nothing will unfuck the story though. I mean, I love stories in games, I don't skip cutscenes (even Metal Gear!) and genuinly relish the exposition, but I can't even tell you what the story is with this because it's so vague and poorly written I had no interest. While I've never hot the hype with Halo I'd expect Bungie to have evolved past what they've done in the years gone by and truly deliver, which they haven't. As to what I'm playing. In between Destiny I'm rocking Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, Metro Redux and The Last Of Us: Remastered. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Oct 01, 2014 6:34 am ----------------------------------- Yeah it is really fun and I still continue to have fun but something is missing. I just hope they can make it right somehow. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Oct 16, 2014 8:47 pm ----------------------------------- Got my hands on 6 games for the Genesis/Mega Drive I'd never played before these past few days and played through a couple of them: Splatterhouse 2 - I've played the original a couple of times, but for some reason, I wasn't really impressed with it. The second one also didn't grab me from the very beginning, but it does become an enjoyable and gory action side-scroller. Splatterhouse 3 - quite different from the first two games, as this time it's a 2.5D beat 'em up with branching paths, time limits and alternate endings. A bit hard at times, but thoroughly enjoyable and with plenty of replay value. A couple of nights before that I just woke up in the middle of the night thinking "Man, I feel like playing TMNT 3 on NES". So that's exactly what I did. Plugged in the AC Adaptor, played through the game and went right back to bed. Not only a great game, but also very nostalgic one for me, brings back many good memories. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Oct 20, 2014 2:45 am ----------------------------------- tmnt 3 was definitely a great game. I remember it very fondly. As soon as I get my hands on another modded original xbox I can't wait to wake up in the middle of the night (or day) and play some random old gem. All the turtle games were awesome> I played them all quite a bit. So your jaunt nets you a :thumb1: ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Oct 20, 2014 6:43 am ----------------------------------- tmnt 3 was definitely a great game.

One thing I've always loved about their TMNT beat 'em ups is the great use of the backgrounds - enemies come out of everywhere and makes the stage seem really interactive. Ever since I modded my X-Box a couple of years ago, I've barely used it as an X-Box. It's mostly an emulator machine now. Oh, and thanks for the PT :) ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Oct 27, 2014 5:38 pm ----------------------------------- I beat "DuckTales: Remastered" on the Wii U last night. If you're even remotely interested in old-school platforming, the show or the original game - then go buy this right now!! I can't stress enough how awesome this game is! Granted, the Capcom original was always solid, WayForward deliver another amazing retro-revival with beautiful graphics, all-new levels and plenty of art to be unlocked. Too bad the game didn't get a retail release in Europe, except on PC. Seriously though, for the past few years, WayForward have not ceased to impress me with their games and now that they're in charge of the new TMNT game, even though I'm not a fan of the current show, I can't help but be excited. Also, need to point out that "Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed" is fun as hell and is probably the only racing game to keep my attention for so long. Since there was a Capcom sale, along with DuckTales I also got "Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara" - the first non-Japanese home release of the Capcom D&D arcade games. While they haven't been remastered, there are some nice features added such as a huge gallery and online multiplayer (which I tried out with a buddy and was quite satisfactory, though the Wii U version lacks voice chat), there are also some screen filters. While a remastering would've been better, I feel that the unlockables and online multiplayer are worth the discounted price, but the full price I wouldn't have paid, considering arcade emulation. ----------------------------------- razgriz21 Thu Nov 20, 2014 6:47 pm ----------------------------------- Been playing Prototype 2 on the PlayStation 3 and I'm digging it. This is coming from someone who wasn't a fan of the first Prototype. I enjoy consuming Black Ops soldiers and ripping apart infected mutants as well as Hulking out on armor. I want to play Far Cry 4 but haven't touched Far Cry 3. I'm in financial mode so no PS4 for me plus I have no desire to upgrade. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Dec 01, 2014 10:56 pm ----------------------------------- Currently playing "Transformers" aka "Transformers: Armada - Prelude to Energon" (2004) on the PS2. It's quite entertaining and is right up there with "War for Cybertron" among the best Transformers games! Based on the Armada series, it doesn't have much different of a story - The Autobots battle the Decepticons to collect all the Mini-Cons. The game features vast free-roam levels that you can explore more and more as you gain new poweres from Mini-cons. The levels themselves take you from Alaska to Antarctica and the Amazon. One level takes place inside a Decepticon Battleship which is non other than Tidal Wave himself and the level builds up to a terrific boss battle with the giant 'Con. Playable are Optimus Prime, Red Alert and Hot Shot, each with their different stats. Gameplay is really solid and the game reeks of fanservice, as it features some classic Transformers lines and plenty of unlockables - art, toy designs, vintage TV spots, music, etc... Highly recommended if you're even remotely a fan of the franchise. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Jan 19, 2015 10:59 pm ----------------------------------- What I played through lately: - "Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition" - Let's get this out of the way, "Another World" / "Out of this World" is a masterpiece!! One of the finest games I've ever played. Might only be an hour or so, long, but it's worth every penny (atleast at the discounted price). - "Steamworld Dig: A Fistful of Dirt" - got this for the Wii U while it was on sale. A decent indie game, probably leaning more towards style over substance though. While the designs and gameplay are solid, the story leaves something to be desired. - "Contra: Shattered Soldier" - OK, I consider myself pretty hardcore when it comes to old-school gaming like this (OK, it's PS2, but it's still old-school gameplay and difficulty). Let me tell you, I was screaming and cursing playing this with a buddy of mine over the weekend. It's BRUTAL!! We barely managed to beat the Easy mode. Awesome game, but damn is it hard!! I also finally had a marathon with the classic Megaman series - 1 through 10. Previously I'd only played 1-3 and 7. While 3 still remains my favourite, I also really loved 5 and 7 as well. 10 was great too, especially being able to finally play as Protoman, who, as we all know, is so much cooler than Megaman ;) MM 8 was a bit weird to me and for some reason, I enjoyed that one the least. Still, overall, not a single bad game in the series, just some that are better and some that are brilliant :D Currently playing through "Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut" on GameCube. It feels weird playing Sonic in 3D, but otherwise, it's a pretty neat game, even if the story isn't as well told as I'd like it to be. So far have completed Sonic's, Tails' and E-102's storylines. ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Jan 19, 2015 11:23 pm ----------------------------------- Currently playing through "Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut" on GameCube.

Hail to the King, baby!! ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Sun Feb 01, 2015 9:19 pm ----------------------------------- PS3 COD: Advanced Warfare Awesome. Very smooth, easy to get into, and has good things from other games in. Exosuits are awesome! Sad and gorey. That is a awful way William Irons dies! Poor man! Trapped on a rising plane that is going to explode. His injuries, nasty. The part were Mitchell gets injured is gorey and effective. The arm being left behind is a surprise. Well written. It's odd that they don't have prosthetic arms in the militery, etc. Online is awesome. COD: Ghosts Now the internet is faster I can play better online. Awesome online. Better shotguns. It's a lot more intense than COD:AW. And scarier. Well written. Playing campaign. Unfortunately, my PS3 keeps crashing mid game. It has no yellow light, so hopefully it's not the YLOD. Hopefully it's just dust. Or the lead that goes to the tv is doing it. I think it might be. I vacumed it and hopefully that fixes it. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Feb 11, 2015 7:37 pm ----------------------------------- So... what have I played recently, let's see... I wrapped up "Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut" and "Sonic Adventure 2: Battle" on the GameCube. Not bad at all. Yeah, the Knuckles and Rouge levels were REALLY annoying, but the rest was enjoyable. I do feel the second game was better to some extent, as it didn't waste my time with hubs. Some nice musical choices here and there and I really liked the final boss battles in both games. After that, I went back to a game I hadn't played in 15 years - "Spider-Man" (2000) on the Playstation. Back when it came out, this was one of the first games I ever had on my Windows-based PC and I really loved it (I'd seen my brother play it on the Playstation at a computer club we used to go to). I'm surprised to say that it's aged REALLY well. Not in the graphics department, but in terms of writing, voice-acting and gameplay the game is still solid. A must-play if you're into superhero games, in my opinion. This was followed by "Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro". I've been dying to play this game ever since it came out (boy, was I pissed when I learned that there wasn't going to be a PC version back in the day). Glad to say, I wasn't disappointed. Although developed by a different studio, it plays pretty much the same as the previous game. Hey, if it ain't broken, don't fix it, right? I really enjoyed it! Aaaaand finally, I just started "Bayonetta" on the Wii U. The designs and over-sexualization aren't exactly my thing, but gameplay is not bad at all. It's not "Ninja Gaiden" good, but still quite pleasant. Judging from "Bayonetta 2"s demo though, they improved quite a few things for the sequel. ----------------------------------- Mindchamber Fri Feb 13, 2015 2:28 am ----------------------------------- Yeah it is really fun and I still continue to have fun but something is missing. I just hope they can make it right somehow. its seems like its just a social game, no effort into story or diversity of game design. If you loved the Spartan ops mode in halo3 (horde mode)... thats pretty much what this whole game is... I loved the demo.. I just didnt know 79 dollars and some 40 hours later Id just be playing the demo still.. Playing Alien Isolation.. has its flaws as well, but its fun for the tension and jump scares ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Sat Feb 14, 2015 9:39 pm ----------------------------------- Ps3 is ill. Got to get a new one. :'( Was playing COD Advanced Warfare. Then it crashed. Decided to play deus Ex Human revolution. Still thought I was playing CODAW. While trying to shoot someone with the terrible sniper rifle, failed. Then jumped off a pile of boxes high up, and knocked off most of Adams health. Thinking I was wearing a exo suit. Died. Tried again. Forgot he was'nt wearing a exo suit, jumped off, died. It was painful, for Adam. Be careful when you play other FPS after playing CODAW. :lol: Though Adam Jenson in a exo suit would be awesome! Cocoppaplay Lost my stuff, had to restart phone. Got some stuff back now. Joined a club called Mystic. They changed the gachas so you can play with smile points. So I played the snow whites cafe gacha. Got a mandolin. :) ----------------------------------- Josh Mon Feb 16, 2015 8:08 pm ----------------------------------- Splinter Cell: Conviction. A bit of a divide with fans and although it's not my favourite I enjoy it for what it is. Plus, it's the last one with Ironside voicing Fisher and he sounds like someone is fucking my ears, but in a good way. None of this 'new guy who is in his early 30's voicing a grizzled veteran in his late 50's' bullshit like you may have heard in Splinter Cell: Blacklist. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Mar 05, 2015 12:52 pm ----------------------------------- Shovel Knight BEST GAME IN YEARS!! I truly mean it! "Shovel Knight" is what happens when a small group of people who have a passion and understanding for something colaborate, put "Castlevania", "Ducktales", "Megaman", "Super Mario Bros 3" and a bunch of original content together in a blender, mix it up real good and create something truly amazing. "Shovel Knight"s only fault is that it ended (kinda). The graphics are beautiful, the level design - terrific, the music - astounding! There really isn't anything bad I can say about it. Just finished it, but I've still got New Game + ahead of me, as well as the first of a bunch of free DLCs which will be an all-new story mode for one of the bosses. If you like platformers, do not miss this game!! It's currently available on PC, MAC, 3DS and Wii U, with Playstation versions coming in April (and featuring Kratos!) and just today, an X-Box One version (featuring Battletoads!) was announced. The last part kinda sounds like an advertisement, but these guys deserve it! I only wish there was a physical copy of it... ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Mar 06, 2015 12:06 am ----------------------------------- Splinter Cell: Conviction.

What I like to do is once in a while "watch" some videogames that got my attention, since I'm interested in all the innovations and trends, and I do that with youtube story compilations / walkthroughs (don't judge me :p ) Recently I watched Deus Ex Human Revolution, Spec Ops: The Line and The Last of Us. Deus Ex: Very disappointed with the story, really, I feel it's the same plot again, already used in a thousand sci-fi videogames, the most generic one they could have come with. Spec Ops: I can see it brings something different, mixing call of duty and psychological elements of silent hill. I'm not really a big fan of the psycho-allegorical genre, but I can see why some people could get a mind blowing experience from it. The last of us: Very impressed by the writing and acting, I think it is the first videogame we can properly talk of "acting", the facial expressions, the use of the eyes and looks, the body language, and of course the dialogues (written and talked), makes this game the closest experience to a (good) film or TV series ever seen in a videogame. ----------------------------------- Slash Man Thu Apr 09, 2015 5:40 am ----------------------------------- Actually got a physical copy of Contra for the NES. It's a game you always remember playing at a friend's house or something, but it's actually pretty hard to get ahold of nowadays (not like it's spectacularly rare or anything). Anyways, ran through the whole game with a friend. With the continues, it's actually easier on 2-player mode, even when the other person can't seem to avoid getting hit. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Apr 09, 2015 8:49 am ----------------------------------- Actually got a physical copy of Contra for the NES.

Every kid seemed to have it on a Famiclone back in the day! I actually find it easier as a single-player game, unless you're absolutely in sync with the other player! Still, great game and great series! It's about time Konami made a new one! ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Tue May 19, 2015 1:59 am ----------------------------------- I have been on a Metroid kick lately. I played through and beat Metroid (nes) to get all the endings. That was a great time. I also played through Metroid Zero Mission for Gameboy Advance. It is an awesome remake of the original and has some additional material as well. I would recommend it for any fan. I was also looking around online and found that there is a fan-made game that remakes Metroid 2 (originally for Gameboy). It's only a demo, but very good if you are a fan. The game's creator also put together a short game called Metroid Confrontation that is somewhat of a revamp of the original Metroid Game. My next challenge will be Super Metroid. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue May 19, 2015 6:46 am ----------------------------------- Ah, how I love the "Metroid" games! "Zero Mission" is my absolutely favourite - amazing look and a great update to the original game! PT for playing awesome games :wink: As for me, these past few weeks I had a little Arkham marathon - I'd only played the first one so far, so it was nice to finally unpack my copies of "Arkham City" and "Arkham Origins"... and to be fair, I think I liked "Arkham Origins" the best... Yeah, it was full of bugs, yet it still kinda had the most Batman feel of all. I really like having an urban setting in games like these, but with "Arkham City" being all run-down and whatnot, it didn't quite work for me. Plus, they greatly improved on the boss battles (previously I'd only really enjoyed the battle against Mr Freeze in "City") and the crime-scene investigations (which were REALLY cool in this game). But playing them one after the other... I have to say, these things do get quite repetitive and not necessarily in a good way. I also played the spin-off "Batman: Arkham Origins - Blackgate" on the 3DS - it's a 2.5D Metroid-vania style Arkham game and for the most part it really worked and was quite fun. I had problems with the stealth and fighting sections from time to time, but other than that, I really enjoyed it. ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Tue May 19, 2015 9:49 pm ----------------------------------- Thanks for sharing some info about the Batman Arkham games. I thought they looked awesome when they first came out, but I never seemed to get around to picking them up. Then when the second installment came out, I wasn't sure if I should go back to the first or not. This will help me finally get onboard. I love how you referred to them as Metroid-vania games! This amalgam represents two of my favorite game series all the way back to the NES days! While I am thinking of NES, what is the groups' thoughts on Robocop games (I am sorry if I am rehashing an old conversation, it just came to me as I was writing)? I have Robocop and Robocop 2 for the NES. These were made with a few-year gap between and designed to run on a different engine. Data East's Robocop was similar to Bad Dudes, whereas Robocop 2 (and Robocop 3) were made by Ocean Games and were similar to the Darkman on NES. I really like Robocop on NES. It gets a bad rap for being a bit rigid and not having good cut scenes or a variety of bosses, but the control (what Robocop can do like shoot, duck and walk) is pretty tight. He's not to good on stairs though. The Graphics are pretty good, animations are solid (especially when Robocop stretches out his arm to fire). Not as good as the arcade game, but still better than some other games in 1989. It also followed the story pretty well. First and second levels-Robo on duty, ending with the Mayor's hostile takeover. Then you got target practice (This guy's really good! Look at that f***in' gun!). Level 3-drug factory, Level 4-OCP building, Level 5-refinery and a showdown with Clarence, Level 6-OCP building with high security. A very well ordered and organized story. I also love the scene of Robo in the elevator just like the movie. The difficulty is high until you get used to playing with the time limit. The two power supplies, Power and Battery have always been a thorn in my side. I get the power level (HP) replenished by jars of baby food (which always looked like money bags to me. That couldn't be. Robocop doesn't care about coins.), but Battery power? Since when has Robocop ever run out of batteries! I know they said in the movie, "When you are at rest, you will sit in the chair," implying that he needed recharging, but never had he ever needed to pick up batteries to avoid shutdown. Oh well, it isn't perfect. The music comes right from the movie (gameplay, title screen, end of stage, beginning of stage), they don't have incredible sound quality, but they were a good attempt to imitate the feel of the movie. Plus, I don't care how many times I hear it, the Robocop theme will never get old. Robocop 2 was a much different game. Yes, you had to stop bad guys and the goal was to eliminate as much Nuke as possible, but the levels were very monotonous and usually relied on silly jumping and avoiding indestructible obstacles. Granted, the Robocop 2 story doesn't translate well into a video game, but they tried to give you some challenges to make up for it. Unfortunately they also rely on being in a certain spot to kill a certain bad guy or rescue a civilian in order to meet a quota (Darkman was also like this). The stupid part was that you have to meet the quota to proceed. As if all the stupid jumps weren't hard enough, you can't just race through. It will start you over if you miss too many of the criminals/civilians. Not to mention, there is no indication when the end of the level is. The backgrounds are rainbow colors with silly shapes all over. A bunch of times I jumped right over the platform that you need to end on and had to restart. ARG! Control is rough. A lot of sliding when moving, jumps often require bouncing off of things and that is never precise. Also you have to hit the mark to end the level or else, start over! Graphics are weaker than the original. They look cartoony and less realistic. I do like the title screen and the cut scenes. Some were derived from Bagley art in the Robocop 2 comic book adaptation. Color is good, but this is just bizarre at times. Backgrounds all meld together and there is little indication where platforms in the foreground and background designs are. Bad guys are all generic recolors of about 5 sprites and the civilians while they may make funny faces (and sometimes commit suicide if you don't save them in time) are not inspiring. RoboCain looks badass and takes up half the screen, but is detailed. Difficulty is high because of the challenges. To complete a level and move on, you must meet a quota for collected Nuke and for either taking out a specific villain or rescuing a civilian. There are about 5 each level and sometimes you have to get them all or you might as well just kill yourself and start over. There are infinite continues, and you will need them, but it becomes very tedious going back through the same path over and again just to meet the quotas to see the next stage. The music doesn't have any connection to the movie and it just seems like a string of wacky sound effects. You know there is something wrong when Robocop makes a silly "bump" sound when he jumps. Everything squeeks and blurps and farts while you're trying to rid the world of drugs and creeps. It's just a friggin' mess. There's a game review for a couple Robocop games. I don't have Robocop 3, but I have watched the longplays on youtube.com. Incidentally, I love watching those longplays, so if you ever are curious about an old game, check them out this way. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Jun 24, 2015 6:57 pm ----------------------------------- Currently playing "Guacamelee: Super Turbo Championship Edition" on the Wii U (it's available on pretty much anything, I think) and I'm really pleased with it. It's a great mix of a Metroid-vania and a Beat 'em Up platformer (even going as far as to offer 2-player co-op). The game's story and design are heavily inspired by Mexican culture (you play as a luchador), but it's also chock-full of other references and the humor is good. Recommended, if you enjoy Metroid-vania games :) ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Fri Jul 03, 2015 6:57 pm ----------------------------------- After my "Megaman" classic series marathon earlier this year, it was time for the "Megaman X" series. I'd previously only played the first one and it was a long time ago, so this was a fresh experience for me. Parts 1-6 are all played from the PS2 collection (which includes the PS1 versions of 3-6) "Megaman X" is a nice update to the classic series, faster paced, overall quite a few new gameplay elements. I don't think it's as good as "Megaman 7" though (which was also on SNES). X2 - more of the same, some decent vector effects, but really repetitive backgrounds. X3 - wow, this one was tough! The graphics still don't impress me too much. The added anime cutscenes in the PS1 version are quite nice though. X4 - now this is where it's at! Best game in the series so far - multiple storylines, plenty of anime cutscenes, beautiful graphics (especially some of the stages). Loved it! Will play through Zero's story at some point. X5 - pretty good, almost as good as X4. It's nice that they have multiple ways to play through the game and as long as you save in different slots, it's not necessary to start over to do so. I tried two different ways, which both wound up getting the same ending. But it was a really nice game overall. X6 - a bit stale. The graphics are still good, but the English translation was horrible beyond belief and the story isn't as developed as on the previous two titles. The levels weren't as fun either. X7 - first foray into 3D for the series. And I found it to be nowhere near as bad as most people make it out to be. Kind of lame that a game called "Megaman X7" actually requires you to unlock the title character. It's not too difficult though. The game consists of 3 types of levels - 2D side-scrolling, 3D with fixed camera and 3D with turnable camera. The 3D levels are a bit sluggish, but quite playable and a decent change for the series. X8 - couldn't finish this one due to disc problems, but it goes back to basics - 2D gameplay with 3D models. Decent voice-acting, cut-scenes and new options, along with the removal of some features from the previous few games, such as crouching, for example. ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Tue Aug 11, 2015 12:15 am ----------------------------------- MegaMan games are lots of fun. Not for the casual player, though, you need strategy to get through those. My brothers would play the originals all the time, but it was often aggrevating to play all the way through (Damn jumps!) I also like the Megaman X series, they give the game even more depth with secret passages to find items, and multiple storylines, and playable characters! I have a PS2 game collection of the Megaman X series. I played through X, X2 and got stuck on X3. I will have to revisit it at some point, because I haven't even tried the rest of the disc! There are just some games that I could play forever, no matter how old I get: TMNT 4: Turtles in Time, Starfox 64, Metroid, (even the Robocop NES game!). I try new games, but they don't stick for me that often. I have been playing the Voltron Arcade game on the XBOX 360. That game is a lot of fun. I also love the Transformers games for the XBOX. I could play the multiplayer for hours. I also like playing through the game over and over again. I guess some things just don't ever get old. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Aug 20, 2015 8:12 pm ----------------------------------- Just wrapped up a game I've been dying to try out for quite some time now - "Alien Soldier" for the Mega Drive. http://www.sixfortyfive.com/temp/as/cover.jpg The game is by Treasure and it's pretty much them showing off what they can do on the system! Beautiful graphics, all kinds of awesome graphical effects, explosions and fast-paced action! I mean, just look at what the title screen says: http://namakoteam.com/images/articles/gh/astitle.png If all that is not enough to get you pumped up, trust me, gameplay will. The game consists of 25 levels, most of which are pretty short, as the main focus here is boss battles. Bosses are usually huge, with rotating, pseudo-3D and whatever else you can think of. The story is absolutely insane (complete with bad Engrish) and many of the designs are wicked cool! Highly recommended!! ----------------------------------- Burnout Fri Sep 18, 2015 5:46 pm ----------------------------------- Anyone else irritated that Bungie went and made Destiny worth playing again? http://blog.acton.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/they-pull-me-back-in-image.jpg ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Sat Sep 19, 2015 2:55 am ----------------------------------- RoboFan, I have seen video reviews of Alien Soldier and it looks awesome! I need to play that game! Thanks for reminding me! ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sun Sep 20, 2015 4:33 am ----------------------------------- Yeah Burnout, The Taken King is pretty good. I wish all shooters felt as solid as destiny. I really hope Halo 5 holds up. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Sep 20, 2015 2:49 pm ----------------------------------- I never could get into Halo and when I tried out Destiny, it didn't work for me either. But I'm glad to see that a game you're interested in doesn't actually disappoint you. I finally wrapped up "Xenoblade Chronicles" on the Wii the other day. Beat it in 72 hours, though I didn't do even half of the side-quests (I think). I really enjoyed it. I'm not much of an RPG guy, but this was really great, the majority of locales was great, the characters were enjoyable enough and the overall gameplay was more than solid. Was a bit too long? Yes, I like my games short. If they're good, I'd come back to them. But with Xenoblade there isn't really that big of a chance for me to do that, even with New Game+. For a single playthrough though, it certainly was great!! The first free DLC for "Shovel Knight" - "Plague of Shadows" finally showed up, so I'm guessing that's next on my list (until "Xenoblade Chronicles X" comes out in December and I hopefully get it :D) ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon Sep 21, 2015 1:19 am ----------------------------------- I never could get into Halo and when I tried out Destiny, it didn't work for me either. But I'm glad to see that a game you're interested in doesn't actually disappoint you. You just must not like fps, which is fine, but other than call of duty, halo and destiny are the most mechanically sound shooters to try. Every time I play FarCry or any other fps shooter, it generally just makes me want to play destiny because it just feels solid, if that makes sense. Also played a bit of The Deer God because it was free on xbox live but it hooked me in after the first mission/opening scene. So weird it is worth checking out. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Sep 21, 2015 7:14 am ----------------------------------- I never could get into Halo and when I tried out Destiny, it didn't work for me either.

Every time I play FarCry or any other fps shooter, it generally just makes me want to play destiny because it just feels solid, if that makes sense. I actually like FPSs, for the most part. But back in the day when I got my X-Box, "Halo 2" had my attention for about 2-3 hours and I spent weeks in "Nightfire". Both parts of "The Conduit" were also pretty good and I even played some online multiplayer in those. You mentioned Far Cry which reminds me that now that I have a slightly better PC on my hands, I should finally play "Blood Dragon". Tried it on a friend's PS3 and it was awesome!! ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Sep 24, 2015 4:06 pm ----------------------------------- Just finished "Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows". It was great!! It's basically the same levels, but each has new passages added. Still, it plays completely different as Plague Knight has his own set of moves, skills and items. The story is very nice, the attention to detail - immense and the overall thing is just damn beautiful. I missed 5 collectibles, so I'll revisit some stages to get 100% Item Completion (and maybe try for a few more achievements) and then, at some point, it's off to New Game +. The update also brought about Challenge Mode and I haven't tried neither Shovel, nor Plague Knight's yet, so there's still content to hold me over until the next DLC story shows up. Hats off to Yacht Club Games! It's a damn shame this didn't get a GOTY. ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Mon Oct 19, 2015 4:15 am ----------------------------------- Has anyone played Transformers Devastation yet? It is friggin' awesome! If you are a fan of the comics and original cartoons, you have to check it out. I have been playing through and it has been great. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon Oct 19, 2015 12:59 pm ----------------------------------- Lags a bit too much on my PC, unfortunately, but from the little I played, it feels and looks awesome!! ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Tue Oct 20, 2015 11:57 pm ----------------------------------- I think that I fall into that category of fans that loves the nostalgic value of the G1 characters, so I am biased, but it is still a lot of fun. I hope there are more to come. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Wed Oct 21, 2015 3:06 am ----------------------------------- Anyone else irritated that Bungie went and made Destiny worth playing again? http://blog.acton.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/they-pull-me-back-in-image.jpg My bro-in-law broke down and bought that bitch himself the other day, so I hope that is true. Guess I'll judge that for myself soon in any event. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Oct 28, 2015 7:35 pm ----------------------------------- Currently jumping between "Runbow" on Wii U and "Sonic Unleashed" on Wii. "Runbow" is a fun indie game that was released recently. It's a platformer with short stages that have a moving rainbow for a background. When the background is the same color as the platforms/hazards/etc they disappear, until the color changes again. It's a neat mechanic, works well, multiplayer is fun and hectic (up to 9 players in a single game) and it has plenty of unlockable characters from other indie games, not to mention quite a few skins and colors for the main characters. "Sonic Unleashed" is surprisingly good, considering the bad rap 3D Sonic games get. The main gimmick is that during the nights Sonic turns into a Werehog and it game becomes a beat 'em up platformer. These stages aren't bad, but nowhere near as good as the daytime stages - fast-paced Sonic action! The story, ofcourse, is ridiculous, but the gameplay isn't bad at all and the graphics are surprisingly good for a 3rd party Wii game. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Wed Nov 04, 2015 2:16 pm ----------------------------------- Halo 5... Meh, it's no Destiny, and this is from a Halo fan since the day the first one came out. The story was ok but the whole deal has aged poorly in my opinion. On a positive note, Fallout 4 will be completely consuming my life in about a weeks time. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Tue Nov 10, 2015 7:47 am ----------------------------------- Speaking of that Fallout 4 life consumption. Sitting at 99% downloaded. I'm about to be a real piece of shit employee tomorrow. ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Sat Dec 05, 2015 7:35 am ----------------------------------- Fallout 3 was a lot of fun. My brother and I are looking forward to the new one. I have recently been playing a lot of Starfox 64. Talk about a great game. I remember when it first came out, I said to myself, I will probably be playing this game forever. I watched some online videos of people getting high scores and they have sick skills. I played for about 3 hours today to try to improve my personal best and I got a score of 1749. This is the best I've ever done, but I keep getting better. Maybe someday I will be able to get over 2000. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Sat Dec 05, 2015 5:48 pm ----------------------------------- Fallout 4 is great but it is so scaled down compared to previous bethesda titles. If you are new to their games this game is going to blow you away. If you have played Skyrim, fallout 3, and other Bethesda games for hundreds of hours before this game is going to feel like you've been here and done that. Best way I can describe it. I felt the spark at first, but it has subsided. Modding content is what will keep me coming back. I think my main gripe is the lack of enemies. After playing skyrim or fallout 3 for many many hours I was still running into enemies I had never seen before. In fallout 4 I think I saw every enemy in the game within about the first few hours of game time... First world problems. :D ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Fri Jan 01, 2016 7:24 pm ----------------------------------- DP from way back... I didn't actually play the game that I am going to link to. I got a copy of wolfenstein: the old blood cheap and wanted to see what the previous entry in the series was about. I was pleasantly surprised and I think you will be too. Check out this clip from Wolfenstein: the new order. You will not be disappointed. I promise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sd1NHI30zUc ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Tue Jan 12, 2016 3:36 pm ----------------------------------- Fallout New Vegas My plasma lady wasnt right. So I restarted with my favourite class. Unarmed combat! Cocoppaplay Had to emergency restart my tablet. So have to recover my character. LOTRO Installed it, but forgot login. Got to get it back. Seriously considering getting Metal Gear Solid:5 The Phantom Pain. But will research it first. Got COD Blackops 3 on PS3. It's not the same as the PS4 one. Its got no campaign. No specialist customisation. It's just multiplayer and zombies. Shadows Of Evil is a awesome setting wasted on zombies. I don't like hoard mode on anything much. It should be a full, seperate, game, with campaign. It's beautifully done. Bioshock-like. But wasted. Beautiful looking, proper writing, screams exploration and single player. But it's pointless zombies, They need to do it properly. Multiplayer is awesome. Fun. Well made. Wall running is good. I prefer the heaviness of COD Advanced Warfare, though. COD:AW is much better made and awesome. I wish COD BO 3 had multiplayer. It looks wierd and interesting. I got COD BO 1 as a free download with it. Which is good. But it doesnt make up for no campaign Treyarch! There is no reason they couldnt make the PS3 one the same as the PS4 one. I decided to complete the campaign and multiplayer on all my CODs. Ghosts, Advanced Warfare, and Black Ops 3. Prestige them all. I havent finished downloading Black Ops 1 yet. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Jan 12, 2016 6:48 pm ----------------------------------- I played through some stuff in these past few months... let's see now... "Sonic and the Black Knight" (Wii) - part of the Sonic Storybook series (which unfortunately got only two games), it's a fun, fast-paced on-rails Sonic game. The game is easy to play, not as easy to master, short, fun and has a couple of kickass tracks by "Crush 40". Underrated and recommended! "Xeodrifter" - a short, but sweet Metroidvania game. Only about 2 hours long, but a thoroughly enjoyable ride from beginning to end. "Dead or Alive; Dimensions" (3DS) - wow! This game is quite impressive, especially considering it was a 3DS launch title. Tight controls, great graphics, decent framerate even with the 3D on (though much faster if it's off) and combines the story of DoA 1-4 in a single game (or atleast whatever little story there is). Beat pretty much all of the modes that can be beaten and still enjoying it. "Don't Escape" 1-3 - short browser adventure games. Quite good, feature multiple endings and are short enough to be played during your lunchbreak. "Mighty Switch Force! 2" - just beat it actually. Very nice, just like the first one, though the final stage in this one felt much easier. Highly recommended, just like pretty much every other Wayforward game. P.S. Woohoo! "Captain" level 5 reached :D ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Tue Feb 02, 2016 10:57 pm ----------------------------------- It's been a good day for gaming today: Wrapped up "Freedom Planet" on the Wii U - what started out as a Sonic fan-game ended up being a neat tribute to 16-bit mascot side-scrollers. Imagine Sonic as if made by Treasure. The voice-acting is amateurish, the story is non-coherent, but graphics, gameplay and music are great. And there's also a mode which plays all levels, minus the cutscenes and a level select is unlocked after beating the game, so I'll be coming back to it. There are also multiple playable characters, each with their own abilities and some unique levels, so I'll definitely come back to it. Also played a few NES games, decided just to try them, but ended up beating them: - "Dragon Fighter" - screams Natsume from the get-go. Not their best work, but certainly enjoyable, if a bit repetitive - "Ultraman Club: Kaiju Dai Kessen" - a surprisingly decent SD Ultraman side-scroller, released only in Japan. Loved the SD style and detailed sprites. Gameplay is nice, but the music was mostly irritating. - "Monster in my Pocket" - a childhood favourite of mine. 8-bit Konami goodness! ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Wed Feb 03, 2016 11:22 am ----------------------------------- For the past few years I haven't been much of a gamer, basically only playing the original Super Smash Bros with friends for a several year stretch (but playing hundreds of games during that time). A few months back I bought a 3DS off one of my friends for $50, and it came with the Mario 64 remake, which I enjoyed. But what has really got me back into gaming is Animal Crossing. My friend let me borrow Wild World and I have been playing obsessively, planting fruit all over his town and even playing his mortgage. So now I have finally bought a video game for the first time in who knows how long, New Leaf, the most recent Animal Crossing game... Which is fitting because you could really say I've turned a new leaf when it comes to video games... ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Feb 03, 2016 11:56 am ----------------------------------- I've never really played "Animal Crossing"... I don't even know what you do exactly in the game, but I heard it's very addicting... I guess that's one of the reasons I try to stay clear of it :D ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Thu Feb 04, 2016 9:58 pm ----------------------------------- Just yesterday I bought a copy of "RoboCop" for the original Gameboy and while unfortunately, it was not boxed, it did come with the manual in excellent condition. So I decided to give it a shot, I don't think I ever beat it using emulators back in the day... and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the game actually holds up pretty well. The graphics are very good and fairly detailed, it follows scenes from the movie well, the music is very enjoyable and the controls are tight and responsive. Not only that, but the game also has some variety in terms of gameplay - with the providing of POV segments and criminal identification in the police files. As far as I know, even though the game borrows from the arcade and NES version, it is actually a port of one of the earlier computer titles (ZX Spectrum if I remember correctly) and it is a faithful recreation. One of the other things I loved is the stage where you try to arrest Dick Jones. Not only does it practically create a cut scene with the in-game graphics (something I adore in old games), but it brings a cool twist by having you fight ED-209 with your bare hands. My only gripe with the game is the way too simplistic ending, which is text only. I'd have loved it if there was atleast a single picture too. As for the music - no surprise that it's by the brilliant Johnatan Dunn. I was surprised to hear some themes I'm familiar with from the RoboCop 2 NES game. I do think that it's safe to say that it's safe to say this is the best RoboCop game on the Gameboy (with R2 being somewhat decent and RvsT being abysmal and much worse than the unreleased NES version if I remember correctly), but I'd also say it's one of the best movie-based games on the system. Definitely worth picking up! ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun May 22, 2016 8:54 pm ----------------------------------- Beat some stuff over the weekend: - "Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark" (Wii U) - What do you get when you take the awesomeness of "War for Cybertron" and "Fall of Cybertron", give it to a different studio and throw in some Bayformers stuff in there? Pretty much a cheap knock-off of two great games. But a playable knock-off nonetheless. The gameplay is fun, the story is lacking and I wish the whole game used the "Cybetron" designs instead of switching to the ones from "Age of Extinction" for the levels on Earth. Still, I can't deny the fact that it was awesome blasting around (and even stomping around as Grimlock). It's a missed opportunity, but for a game I'm pretty sure was rushed, it's not too bad. I don't regret picking it up for the discounted price, as it's competent enough for the most part and it's short, so it doesn't have the time to really get stale and repetitive. It does however have a couple of game-breaking glitches which forced me to restart from previous checkpoints. - "Lone Survivor: The Director's Cut" (Wii U) - a pretty interesting horror/survival/adventure game. Interesting mechanics, well-handled atmosphere, great music and multiple endings make this a neat game to check out. It's short too, so it can be beat in one sitting. I beat it in about 3-4 hours in Expert mode. Normal mode gives you a map, which should speed things up considerably. Worth checking out. ----------------------------------- RoboDemise Mon May 23, 2016 12:27 am ----------------------------------- - "Monster in my Pocket" - a childhood favourite of mine. 8-bit Konami goodness! Great great game. I remember a slanted level running downward. Also check out Wrath of the black manta if you haven't already. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Mon May 23, 2016 5:44 am ----------------------------------- Also check out Wrath of the black manta if you haven't already. I've played that on an emulator back in the day. Ninjas? Drug pushers? Kidnapped children? It just sounded too cool! Loved the interrogating aspect. Funny thing, the NES version was actually quite heavily altered from the Japanese one, which had a more comedic tone and I think you ended up fighting aliens in the end. ----------------------------------- WeKilledYou Wed Sep 14, 2016 2:58 am ----------------------------------- I've been playing a lot of Deus Ex Mankind Devided. So far I'm having a decent enough time. The game is supposed to emphasize various dialogue choices and options, but for the most part I don't notice different outcomes if i reload a segment and pick a different choice. Plus anytime the game has me choose between passive or aggressive, I choose the most violent path every time. The stealth segments really suck. The game is way more enjoyable for me to just blow everyone away(sort of reminds me of Hitman Blood Money in that aspect). ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Sep 14, 2016 12:56 pm ----------------------------------- Spent the first half of my summer exactly the way I wanted - playing "Xenoblade Chronicles X" on the Wii U. Never was big into RPGs, but ever since they announced it (I watched a live stream of that E3) I'd been anticipating it. So I got it a few days after launch, in December 2015, but didn't open it until I was done with university. The game was massive, relatively easy to pick up and learn. Exploration was phenomenal, the locales were beautiful, the music - terrific (with a large amount of vocal tracks) and combat was amazingly intense, both in and out of the mechs. Spent about 83 hours into it before I finished the main story (though I also did my fair share of side missions) but am looking forward to eventually carrying on to the post-story missions. I also replayed Megaman 1-6, this time as part of the Legacy Collection on 3DS and they still hold up. Also played the terrific 3D convertions of Streets of Rage 1,2 and Out-Run. They did a top-notch job on these. ----------------------------------- Meriandressial Fri Sep 23, 2016 9:50 pm ----------------------------------- Cocoppaplay, a lot. Now I have a new pc, DnDo is much better. But sadly I cant quest hard till I get a graphics card. Once I get a graphics card I can look into getting some bought games I want. If the pc is the best or only option. Id much rather play Wasteland 2 on PS4, once I get one. I had to get a new controller for the ps3. :( it started dying. Dragons Dogma should play better now. they all should. I may get a pc controller. keyboard and mouse dont always work as well. I have a list of games to get, other things took priority. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Sep 25, 2016 8:42 pm ----------------------------------- Started the newly released "Metroid Prime: Federation Force" on the 3DS yesterday. Now, I really love me some Metroid. I even loved "Metroid: Other M", which is quite controversial among fans to this day. And Federation Force is no different. Being the first Metroid title in six years (the previous one being the aforementioned Other M), fans were quite upset when it turned out it's a chibi-styled multiplayer-based spin-off. I didn't jump on the hate bandwagon, but I was genuinely disappointed. Then they released the sports mini-game - "Blast Ball" for free and I tried it and I thought it was an unbalanced mess. So eventually, my local video game store got one copy of the game and since I had a voucher for their store, I decided to cash it in and get the game. And frankly, I'm kinda glad I did. Don't get me wrong, this isn't the Metroid I was looking for. In fact, it barely classifies as Metroid. It's mission-based, it's not an entire world to explore and you don't play as Samus Aran. But what's in here is actually quite fun. The controls take time to get used to, but the minimal exploration is enjoyable, the puzzles range from very simple to tricky and the combat is exciting and heart-pounding (at least when Space Pirates are involved). 7 missions in and I've already visited all 3 planets, fought numerous interesting bosses and have had mostly a blast. It's not Metroid, but it's fun. That's not to say it doesn't have problems. Like I said, both control schemes really take a mission or two to get used to and I'm annoyed at the Mission Result scoring system. The fact that the secondary objectives aren't displayed before a mission starts, not to mention the time completion goal is just plain dumb. It's only available once you beat a mission. And you don't have a timer either, so good luck trying to max out your points and also make sure you get a decent score. I'm yet to try out the Multiplayer, since I'm not really an online multiplayer person, but the game is kind enough to offer some modifications so you can play it solo as well. Overall, so far, I'm enjoying it, but I still want a real Metroid. ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Tue Oct 24, 2017 1:13 am ----------------------------------- OK folks, bear with me, I am an old school gaming fan and I have a cool collection of games dating back to the mid 80s that I draw from. Has anyone ever played any of the PlayStation 2 Mobile Suit Gundam games? I have about 4 of them, but my favorite is Mobile Suit Gundam: Zeonic Front. Its a strategy game to control teams of mobile suits through missions. Its not very action-adventure, but it has the animated series cut scenes, and story arcs (I love the original Gundam series). I really loved playing that game (according to my memory card, I hadn't played it since 2012). I also pulled out X-Men Legends. I loved LOVED LOVED that series of games. My brothers and cousin played the hell out of those games and they still hold up today. Do yourself a favor, take an afternoon and tear some shit up with your own X-Men team and you won't regret it! JOF ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Wed Oct 25, 2017 5:59 pm ----------------------------------- OK folks, bear with me, I am an old school gaming fan and I have a cool collection of games dating back to the mid 80s that I draw from. Has anyone ever played any of the PlayStation 2 Mobile Suit Gundam games? I remember those.. Well somewhat - Been quite a while now. Played them with my bud since he had the PS/PS2. Like you said, not quite as actiony as could have been but I recall them still being pretty good. Otherwise, as a form of distraction from my worthless shit existence, been burning through Mass Effect Trilogy again. I had played 'em plenty before but still fun to go back through it all again. That and I seem still be getting new achievements and the Microsoft dick points that come with them. Hey! Just thought.. If I load up a fresh male character, might wanna try going for a Weller face.. :robo1: Eh.. won't be right without the voice, even if there is a helmet that gives him the Robo look. Oh well, was a nice thought. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Thu Oct 26, 2017 9:17 am ----------------------------------- I mentioned in the good things topic a few months ago that I recently got a Sega Genesis. Now that I have had it for a while and built up a little collection, here is a list of all the games I have for it: 1) Sonic the Hedgehog 2) Sonic the Hedgehog 2 3) Sonic the Hedgehog 3 4) Sonic & Knuckles 5) Sonic Spinball 6) Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine 7) Robocop vs. Terminator 8) Kid Chameleon 9) Spider-Man 10) Super Street Fighter II 11) Ms. Pac-Man 12) Star Trek: The Next Generation 13) NBA Jam (Tournament Edition) 14) Vectorman 15) Ecco II: Tides of Time 16) Shaq-Fu 17) Super Smash TV 18) Dynamite Headdy As someone who hadn't owned or played many video games for years (aside from a few months of heavy Animal Crossing abuse) it has been a lot of fun to sit around playing games all day. A lot of those are ones I had as a kid or always wanted. Next, I'll be getting Gunstar Heroes and Rocket Knight Adventures. Any other Genesis recommendations are welcomed. There is another Robocop games, Robocop 3, but it is pretty awful and not the cheapest game so I will not be picking it up any time soon. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Thu Oct 26, 2017 5:02 pm ----------------------------------- All that but no Streets of Rage or Golden Axe? For shame sir! Other than that, Lion King is a good one.. if your idea of enjoyable gaming includes a lot of ripping your hair out. :roll: But onto real suggestions - I think the Alien 3 game wasn't half-bad. Pretty sure the Strike series was on Genesis.. if it's at all like the ones on SNES, those are fun if not challenging. Never seem to be any truly decent attack heli games out there.. Last but not least, Phantasy Star II and IV are absolute must haves if you're even remotely into RPGs. They are top-level games for that time and genre, and still hold up today. I didn't include III because it's a bit tangential and more than that just ain't nearly as fun to play - mechanics-wise it's quite annoying at best. But if you want to get the set, your call. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Fri Oct 27, 2017 1:06 pm ----------------------------------- Thanks for the suggestions, Stan! A few of those have caught my eye already, Phantasy Star IV being the main one. It is also one of the more expensive Genesis games, which has held me back. I have never been into RPG's before, aside from like Paper Mario, but for the last year or so I have really wanted to dig into a classic Japanese RPG. There is a reproduction cart that has Phantasy Star II, III, and IV, which is probably what I will go with when I'm ready. Alien 3 is another one that I am interested in, the ratings I have seen have been a bit unfavorable but I will definitely get it at some point down the road when I am getting bored of the usual fare. As far as games like Streets of Rage and Desert Strike, I have played a good deal of those games in the past and am currently looking for things I missed during my youth. It is safe to say I will pick them up at some point, though, as I am enjoying collecting Genesis games as much as playing them! ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Fri Oct 27, 2017 5:44 pm ----------------------------------- Ah, gotcha on your last. Like I said I remember Alien3 not being too bad. But its been a bit though. PSII was groundbreaking for its release but PSIV follows in its footsteps well. Both are well worth buying, I assure you. If you have to pick, I'd go for IV since it's a good bit more accessible all-around, but especially in gameplay and mechanics; II is a decent bit harder and not quite as intuitive. Both are fantastic in terms of look, story, music, et al. As for PSIII.. ehh I already said my piece not much more to say without being rude. :b As for others, Virtual Bart is okay.. though maybe not a must-have unless you're a Simpsons fan. Don't know about the Batman or Ninja Turtles games, heard some good things but I think a lot of it's nostalgia. I suppose Mr. 93 would be the one to ask for those. Jurassic Park wasn't all that good IIRC. T2 Arcade was fairly a'ight. ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sat Oct 28, 2017 2:45 am ----------------------------------- Batman or Ninja Turtles game. The best known Batman game for Genesis, Batman Forever, sucks ass. While it has an interesting visual style, with digitalized sprites similar to Mortal Kombat and a wonky color palette, but gameplay is pathetic. It takes time to name all the thugs you fight, like Mike and Carl, but forgot to make Batman powerful or fun to control. There is a Batman game based off the Animated series that looks much better, but it not too highly regarded either, seems just middle of the road. The Turtles game, on the other hand, has a great reputation, it is a remix of the arcade game with a few new levels and stuff like that. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sat Oct 28, 2017 9:40 pm ----------------------------------- In terms of "RoboCop 3" - if you ever decide to get it, the Genesis version is in quite a few ways superior to the SNES port, even if the overall graphics are muddier. In terms of Batman games - Sunsoft's game based on the 1989 flick is not bad at all, if a bit short and easy. Nowhere near as good as the NES game though. Batman Returns is somewhat clunky, but with some nice ideas overall. I have a soft spot for it, as it was one of my first Genesis games. Avoid "Revenge of the Joker" like the f'n plague. A horrible port of the great NES title "Return of the Joker". "The Adventures of Batman & Robin" is visually a STUNNING game. It pulls off incredible 3D effects and it's a very intense, Contra-like game. Great, giant bosses and challenging gameplay. The music is techno stuff by Jesper Kyd. Not the greatest interpretation of the cartoon, mind you, but a terrific game on its own and also has 2 players. Keep in mind it's quite hard though. TMNT have two games - "Hyperstone Heist" is highly recommended - it features levels from the two arcade games mashed together, along with some new ones. The levels are only 5, one of them being a color-swapped boss rush, but the others are lengthy and very fun. Graphics and controls are great. If you can get it - go ahead! "TMNT Tournament Fighters" is a mixed bag. It has nice character selection and fun moves, but is quite unbalanced and can be frustrating. Also, keep in mind that all versions of Tournament Fighters are completely different games. As for "Alien 3" - as far as I know, the Genesis version is just an updated version of the NES game, so it's probably not that great. And while the graphics might be better, the NES music is vastly superior. Other recommendations for games I can give: - Crude Buster / Two Crude Dudes - very nice Genesis port of the Data East beat 'em up. - Ecco the Dolphin 1 and 2 - Can't stress this enough. They are difficult, but rather unique in terms of style, gameplay and storytelling. - Phantom 2040 - highly recommended and vastly underrated! Chapter-based Metroid-vania, great graphics and at least 6 different endings depending on the choices you make. Can't stress enough how underrated it is! - Pirates of Dark Water - not the same as the SNES version. A more-than-decent action platformer that actually brings the story of the cartoon to a close. - Comix Zone - somewhat difficult and unfair, but still quite unique and great overall. - Spider-Man & Venom "Maximum Carnage" and "Separation Anxiety" - the SNES versions are better, but both are fun beat 'em ups. The first one is superior in terms of enemy variety and storytelling, but the second one is still a fun option. - Chakan: The Forever Man - a punishingly difficult game (especially in the later parts), but I really love it. In fact, it's so difficult, the developers never bothered to include a finished "good" ending. - Ristar - if you like Sonic, you'll probably enjoy this too. Very nice platforming and gorgeous graphics. - X-Men 1 and 2 are nice. The first one is super tough, second one is more straightforward and easier to pick up. - The Immortal - released on a bunch of platforms. A very nice, if somewhat tough game. - Pretty much all of the Disney games minus "Fantasia" are good. The two "Illusion" games are must-plays I'd say. "Gargoyles" is fun to play and has really nice graphics too. - "The Lost World: Jurassic Park" is a late Genesis title I highly recommend. Overhead mission-based shooter with unique 3D boss levels. Has 2-player co-op and hidden deathmatch arena mode. - "Contra: Hard Corps" is pricey, but overall terrific. - "Revenge of Shinobi", "Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master" and "Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi" bring great ninja action to the system. - "The Lost Vikings" is a great puzzle-platforming game, fun for both one or two players. I can certainly give you some more recommendations if you'd like :b ----------------------------------- RoboPimp Sun Oct 29, 2017 11:56 am ----------------------------------- Thanks for the recommendations! A few of those have certainly tempted me before, such as Contra: Hard Corps. There is a reproduction cart that is based on the Japanese version, which has hit points and the option to have up to 10 continues. I think even with 10 continues it still be more than enough challenge for me! Hyperstone Heist is another one I would get a repro cart of just because the original game is a little pricey. Now, the Spider-Man games are an interesting one to me. I originally wanted to get both you mentioned right away, but went for the self-titled "Spider-Man" game. I remember thinking it was cool as a kid and it has a reputation of being the best Spidey game on Genesis, but after playing it a few times I think it sucks. Visually, it is perfect, but the gameplay does not feel like Spider-Man to me. First of all, they give you a criminally low amount of web fluid. The web-slinging is fun and accurate, but they don't give you nearly enough to actually swing around. You can play on practice, which has unlimited web fluid, so your options are either too little or infinite. And even on practice with infinite webbing, frustrating enemy placement and other balancing issues make it mediocre at best, to me. I am probably going to get Speration Anxiety over Maximum Carnage just because it has co-cop and that is when I think beat-em-ups are best, when you have a friend there to talk trash with. But after that other Spidey experience, they are not too high on my list. Phantom 2040 is probably my favorite suggestion, as it is one I have never heard of but it looks awesome! I will certainly be keeping my eyes out for this one. Some you mentioned I either owned or have played a lot in the past, like Ecco, X-Men and Shinobi. That Jurassic Park game is another one that I am very interested in. The more well know Jurassic Park game just seems kinda meh, just the visual style and concept of this one is much more appealing. I have actually come across it when buying games a few times but didn't realize it was a different game! Thanks for the suggestions, a couple stood out and will be on my radar next time I want to order some games, and I know they are coming from a very credible source! Though, just for future reference, I have never played SNES so I don't care how it stacks up next to the Genesis version, as long as the Genesis version is good! Now, what I would love would be suggestions for some easier games, or stuff that can be played in bite sized chunks. I work a lot and don't always wanna dedicate my entire night to playing a game. It seems like most of the games I have are known for their 'punishing difficulty' and require a serious investment of time to beat. I am really looking for something I can play for a half-hour and feel satisfied. Also, any oddities like Shaq-Fu are welcomed. Another one I want to get is Pac-Man 2, which is some kind of terrible point and click game. I am really looking for fun over challenge. To quote one of the world's most popular musicians, "I'm here for a good time, not a long time" ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Sun Oct 29, 2017 3:16 pm ----------------------------------- The Spider-Man you got sounds like "Spider-Man vs The Kingpin". I highly recommend just activating the cheat mode for that one - makes it much more fun. It's actually one of the better superhero games on the system. There's another one called simply "Spider-Man" that's based on the 90s animated series. It can be kind of fun at times, but frustrating at the same time. "Spider-Man & X-Men in Arcade's Revenge" is not that fun either. As for going into repro territory - I've been doing that for a while now (and in the case of the Genesis - for years, since back in the day I could only afford bootleg carts). Check out AliExpress - it's a great source for affordable repros of good quality. As for Contra - yup, I own a repro of the Japanese version and it's much easier than the US one. I can't understand the story at all (and it's one of the more story-driven Contra games, but hey, it plays, right?). There's also a 99 lives cheat for that one too. You might as well go and get "Sunset Riders" too. For Disney games - I forgot to mention that "Talespin" and "The Little Mermaid" kinda suck too, so feel free to avoid those, along with "Fantasia". "Puggsy" is a nice, not-too-tough puzzle platformer with some nice graphical effects. "B.O.B." is also a decent platformer with relatively short levels, if I recall correctly. If you're into shoot 'em ups - "Insector X" and "MUSHA" are awesome, though for MUSHA you'd better go repro, as it's in the 400$ range (I lucked out many years ago and got a CIB one for 8$. To this day probably the greatest score I've had). "The Flintstones" and "Joe & Mac" are nice action platformers and I seem to remember them being relatively easy. "Alisia Dragoon" is also simple and fun. "Battletech" is a blast if you can find a buddy to play it with. In two-player mode one of you controls the movement of the mech and the other one controls the guns. Makes for an intense experience. Oh, and "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" is better than people give it credit for. I enjoy it quite a bit. Same goes for "Sonic 3D Blast" - people hate on the game, but it's actually above average and it's got some terrific music. One of the guys who worked on it is currently doing a "Director's Cut" - adding in a few things that were removed prior to release and fixing some of the game's issues. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Sun Oct 29, 2017 6:15 pm ----------------------------------- Oh, and "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" is better than people give it credit for. I enjoy it quite a bit. Shit, how'd I forget Moonwalker? Yeah that one's quite good. Gargoyles also. My bud had Aladdin and I remember it was quite a'ight. Never had any other Disney titles save Lion King which I already made my say on and stand by. :roll: Never played the Shinobi's but wanted to check them out back then. Phantom 2040 does sound bitchin'. Eh, all I got to add. Really need to boot up my old system and go on some emulator/ROM spelunking again. ----------------------------------- RoboFan_93 Wed Nov 01, 2017 9:31 pm ----------------------------------- So I got a Switch in the beginning of August and have been playing that a lot. Beat "Double Dragon IV", the Shantae series, "Mighty Gunvolt Burst", "Cave Story+", "Implosion: Never Lose Hope", "Wonderboy: The Dragon's Trap" and "Sonic Mania". Most of these are retro-inspired games with "Sonic Mania" taking the cake. A product made out of pure love for the franchise. Big thumbs up to everybody involved. That's how you do a retro revival! Double Dragon IV was decent, fun, but not impressive. The Shantae games are must-plays for Metroidvania fans out there. "Implosion" might be something of a hidden gem - mech-based hack 'n' slash, surprisingly high production values for a 10$ game, multiple playable characters and two different storylines. It's relatively long too. Wonderboy is visually stunning, but some gameplay elements haven't aged well. It's nice that you can switch to the classic graphics at any time. A couple of days ago I bought and beat "The Mummy: Demastered" also on the Switch. I've said it a dozen times - Wayforward are the masters of retro and they prove it yet again. A great movie tie-in that's easily much better than the movie itself. Gorgeous pixel art, synth soundtrack and addictive gameplay make a great combination! I also beat the long-awaited "Metroid: Samus Returns" on the 3DS and I loved every minute of it! Terrific game, though debatable if it was actually better than the fan-made AM2R (Another Metroid 2 Remake). But the European collector's edition (which I fortunately managed to grab) is a thing of beauty! This was followed by me FINALLY playing "Metroid Prime". I got the "Trilogy" on Wii years ago, it was the main reason I wanted a Wii in the first place, but I wanted to wait for when the time is right (meaning, I had enough time to marathon through the entire trilogy). Since that never happaned for 5 years, I just said to myself "Screw it" and started playing. I loved the first "Prime". Visually great, it's aged really well. The motion controls are terrific and intuitive and probably the most important thing - it's genuinely Metroid in 3D. I loved it. Currently playing through "Metroid Prime 2: Echoes", but had to take long brakes due to work (I started it weeks ago and am near the end now). Unfortunately, I'm not enjoying it nearly as much as the first one. It's not a bad game, but the gimmicks feel just like that - gimmicks. They needlessly prolong a lot of sections of the game and make it feel boring at times. Or maybe I'm just burned out on Metroidvanias at the moment. Will definitely take a break before I move on to Prime 3. During brakes at work I play a little "Ultra Street Fighter II" and "Rayman Legends" on the Switch. SF II is a classic, one of my favourite fighters (along with SF III 3rd Strike) and in my opinion a much better game than SF IV and SF V. Rayman is also pretty fun and the levels are short which is a huge plus for portable play. Once I wrap up MP 2 I might move on to "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" or just wait for "Doom" and the Telltale "Batman" series to hit the Switch later this month. ----------------------------------- RoboJOF Sat Aug 03, 2019 1:42 pm ----------------------------------- You mentioned some great games there, RoboFan! I love the Street Fighter franchise. I was playing Street Fighter 4 recently after a period of not playing it and I got my ass kicked. You also mentioned Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which is an awesome game. I got lost in that game for months after work this year. There is so much to do. I just got to the ending yesterday (even though I have completed all the submissions), and it was cool, but I think I liked the ending of Ocarina of Time better. Its still lots of fun to explore. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Sat Aug 03, 2019 3:59 pm ----------------------------------- Was on a Age of Empires binge for a while which I've come back down off of.

Honestly that was all I got it for in the beginning, but it grew on me and now I play regularly throughout the day and I'm finding it good fun. ----------------------------------- Burnout Tue Feb 07, 2023 4:04 pm ----------------------------------- I finally got around to The Last Of Us 2. Man, what an experience that was. Every part of that game was perfectly crafted. By the end I was literally yelling at the screen, but not because it was overly challenging or bad, but because the story goes places I never would have expected. I've never actively hated the character I played in a video game, but this journey brought out so many emotions I did not expect. Simply fantastic. 10 out of 10 ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Fri Feb 10, 2023 4:24 am ----------------------------------- I finally got around to The Last Of Us 2.

I love a game with an interesting art style so I've been meaning to check it out. It's nice and easy going, with some definite inspiration from the more recent Zelda games, although there's no combat to it. It's just about exploring and taking in the sights. I find with life nowadays I can't have massive gaming sessions like I used to, although I did put aside some time for Rogue City. I just pop it on every few day, wander round for an hour or so, and enjoy. ----------------------------------- Stan The Man Mon Feb 26, 2024 1:35 am ----------------------------------- STILL doing Fallout, on Fallout 4 a second much more thorough playthrough with some creation club content so I can waste even more time on settlements heh. Otherwise slowly but surely going through Resident Evil 4 remake on the buds PS5. Been really sweet that one. With New Game+ now on Rogue City I need to burn back through it again soon.
