WAITING FOR DIMNOS OR BILL TO STEP UP AND GET TAKEN FOR A RIDE AT SSF4

I still need a day or two to get used to this shit. I havnt played a Street Fighter game after SFII on SNES and I don't want to totally embarrass myself. This weekend should be good. What time are you normally on?

just finished lost in nightmares i know a little late but i loved it also i've been going undefeated in ssf4 since i won my first match i even got a perfect on some ibuki dude

Trying Dragon Age again...this time with a Rogue, archer to be precise...much more fun than the boring warrior and his shield-bash-tree of skills...ugh...

Hey! I shield bashed my way to victory :P. I started the Darkness and I'm stuck at the part where the helicopter and the cops rape you at the beginning. Also I restarted Resident Evil 5 and I'm remembering why it sucked so hard and I stopped. Trying Split/Second today.

That part can be a little difficult. It's best to avoid the helicopter as best as you can. It's very hard to kill, if you can at all.

Real warriors in Dragon Age use two handed weapons to cleave their foes in twain. >:

I got rolled real bad online.

Are you talking about Stonekeep from like 10 years ago? I loved that game.

Your not helping my confidence 10k. As I imagine you can kick my ass. :(

Split/Second is aight. That's the best I can say about it. It's an average racing game with good graphics and an explosion gimmick. Is it just me or is The Darkness really fucking hard?

Yes. I fucking loved it, though. Reminded me a lot of Max Payne.

I saw you playing online the other day but I think you were away. I only know special moves and not combos though so I'm really easy to predict.

Arent all the combos pretty much the quarter circle forward twice and a punch or kick? Replace said punch or kick with the all three punch or kick button for the ultra?

Certain moves and special moves flow into each other as combos though. Like a FP, FP, low HK, MP+MK(cancel) into a Shoryuken.

IF you go through the training segment for each character to learn the moves it will kinda show you which goes into which. My Roommate is really good at them but anytime we get into an agrument he wants to play SF II because he has like a black belt in it.

The very same. Gog.com had it on sale for $6.

It was half fun, half frustration for me.

I only really remember the very beginning and also the part in some watery underground area. When it came out it was blown away by the graphics. :lol

My K/D is -234. :(

The most valuable lesson to learn about Chris Redfield´s Boulderpunch 2009 is: Never play it alone, it sucks ass in outer space. I think I played through that game about 6 or 7 times but never alone, it´s just not fun that way...


Still liking my bow-elf-dude in Dragon Age, nice to have some skills that do actual damage...problem is: Bow´s don´t have slots and most skills center around backstabbing, which you can´t do with bows...I also didn´t know what additional class to take, so I chose Ranger...maybe those summoned animals can at least draw the enemies attention while I needle them to death with unpoisonable arrorws (another flaw)...ranged weapons seem kinda half-assed...

Yeah, it's dumb to make yourself an archer. You can deck out Lelianna to be a badass archer and she ends up being a really useful support member with stuff like critical shot (or whatever the fuck it's called) and scattershot. With this game, you kinda need to look at your party members and plan your character around them. On my first playthrough, I was a tank, and I kept getting rolled because I didn't have any variety in my team until the end.

Portal is now free on Steam so I'm picking that up. :)

Prepare for 2 hours of boredom :lol. I still have no idea why people loved that game, a five year old could figure out those puzzles. Maybe the sequel will be challenging.

I'm almost at the end of RE5 and the AI is hilarious. Sheva refuses to use anything but the pistol (even if it's empty). The enemy AI is so lethargic I thought that the game was broken.

PC - Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened
....
And yesterday I was trying out some SegaCD roms. What a great add-on. Wish I had the cash to buy one back in the day.

I never even gave her a weapon with ammo. She either held the weapons I wasnt using or the ammo for the ones I was. Bitch isnt good for anything other than being a pack mule.

Sheva's decent with the sniper rifle, I gave the the Bow/Arrow and no other weapons when I go it alone. You definitely should play it by yourself though unless you're gathering money for upgrades.

I still need a few achievements in RE5 like lead aspirin. Need to study some movies of Kahljorn playing because I know he's got the RX on RE5. Does anyone else have it?

I know, I know. But I don´t wanna use Lelianna which is not effective since she´s a decent archer and the primary idiot that wastes skillpoints on lockpicking...just don´t want to carry her around.
The whole game would´ve been much better with decent and fun skills, not these boring-ass D&D stuff...never really got into the whole thing because of that...I prefer to play ONE character instead of babysitting a whole pack of guys that only survive because of synergistic effects...but then again, I´m not a friend of tactial planning to begin with, I prefer to just...kill the shit out of Ogres and Dragons :D

Maybe I´ll just switch to easy difficulty and see if it´s more fun then :lol

And before you ask, yes, I´m a terrible tank in MMORPGs...like to heal though :\

I used Leliana as a backup warrior. Morrigan and the other mage lady carried the team though :P.

I've resigned to giving Sheva a shotgun and assault rifle to at least make her semi effective. I just ordered a replacement fan and dvd drive shock absorber for my 360 because it sounds like a 747 and I don't want it to e74 or rrod on me again :lol.

WRONG! She is only going to waste your ammo.

I don't use either gun so HA! Just got through playing Action 52 on the Sega Genesis. I dare you to play through it without ragequitting before you play all of them.

How do you not use the shotgun?

I BLOW HOLES IN FOOLS WITH THE HYDRA OR M3.

i'm playing xmen origins wolverine i have re 5 on ps3 if anyone wants to play

Yeah, I was the same way when I started playing it; I didn't really give a shit about any of the tactics and kinda just expected it to be like Knights of the Old Republic, but it was way too hard to play through it with that mentality.

All you need to do is set up a few key characters a certain way, and it should be much easier. I had Morrigan in my party for like 85% of the game. She was just that effective.

Trying the new Prince of Persia and Red Dead Revolver tonight. I'll tell you how it goes.

oops double post

edit: wtf i guess my phone fucked up, here's what it was supposed to say

i just got my ps3 back so i'm just dicking around in infamous trying to get the last few trophies

any suggestions on good psn downloads? (ps1 classics or ps3, whatever)

where?

Got my hands on Alan Wake and my 3D Dot Game Heroes arrived too today...much to do before RDR is released...

i have resident evil 2 silent hill and dino crisis i reccomend thosse if yo don't already own them

I was wondering about the 3D Dot Game Heroes. How is it? As bad ass as Im thinking?

Playing through Risen. Enjoying it.

My state does not have a copy of 3D Dot Game Heros. I am sad.

Pretty much yeah, you slash up monsters with your gigantic sword from the other side of the screen while listening to immensly cooly Retro-Tunes. You descend into the dangerous temples of Dotnia, hunting treasures like...THE GREEN ORB or...THE BLUE ORB! Because, well, Sages need orbs and you´re the hero so get to fucking adventurin´ already :lol

It´s a really nice game...now I just gotta design my own hero...or royal...or scholar since there´s 3 different classes...but I´m SO bad at designing things with an optical component...I´m more the writer type guy...not in english of course ;)

The game is also full of lovely little hommages to other games like the king in the beginning who warns you that it´s dangerous to go alone and he want´s you to...take this..."SWORD GET!"

There´s also the Atlus HQ with some people complaining about how hard one of their games is...something with demons apparently ;)


Why don´t they have 3D Dot at your place, Nick? That´s a crime, I´m pretty sure of it!

Prince Of Persia TFS is pretty good. The controls feel a little stiff but that's because it was built off the AC engine. Otherwise, I really like it. RDR is aight. It just feels like GTA4 with horses though. At least there is customization. It is very similar to the whole Fallout 3>= Oblivion argument.

Hopefully team battle on SSFIV today. Who's in?

No idea, so I just ordered it from Gamestop with overnight shipping. :love

I AM THE TEAM.

BRUDDA MERCEE

Just like in Borderlands these days. AM I RIGHT???

YEAH JUST LIKE IN BORDERLANDS WHICH I PLAY BY MYSELF SINCE SOME PEOPLE ARE TOO SELFISH.

I haven't played it for any extended period for quite a while. Think I'm still 48. I haven't sat down and 'multiplayed' anything in the last couple months.

Just bought the Myst Masterpiece edition for around $5, it contains Myst ("Remastered", bullshit it looks the same), Riven, and Exile.

I popped Myst in, spend an hour trying to find a trouble shooting solution because it didn't work with the Quicktime I had, and when I finally got it to work I was too tired to figure out all the shit that was going on. So I just turned it off.

Blah.

:lol They added a puzzle to the installation in the remastered version apparently.

i'm not crazy into horror games but i did love dino crisis as a kid so maybe

as of right now i'm restarting assassin's creed and hopefully gta4 when i get it back

:lol

apparently.

Sometimes when coach goes down in L4D2 he yells "HELP! HELP!" To which I feel obligated to yelling "HERE COME THE BEARS!" into my mic.

3D Dot Game Heroes.

I'm loving this game, in spite of the fact that it's crashed twice on me in the past two days. Made up my own character (from a template) and everything, and now I'm swinging a sword so large that as soon as I hear the "enemy spotted" noise the monsters make, I swing it and kill things I can't even see.

i wanna play 3d dot game heroes but i doubt it will be for rent anytime soon and i'm very low on funds

But it's $40! 33% off the regular price for a PS3!

on the us here the lowest i've seen it is 53 but if i get back my copy of gta 4 i will sell it to get 3d dot game heroes

Playing Bit.Trip Runner today. It's probably the best in the series. Really cool graphics, and the music is just great. Plus, there's no game over in this game, so it's a little less frustrating, even though you have to start over if you fuck up. It's basically a rhythm platformer where you need to either jump, kick, slide, or bounce at the right beat.

The second world alone is worth it. So awesome. Everyone with a Wii should try it.

I´m almost through after 11hrs or so...one more temple and the final dungeon to go...though I think I missed a ton of sidequests...quite a lot of them and many become unsolveable pretty quick. Gotta max my sword though so it´s back to Zombie-killing, guys drop quite a lot of golden coins.

I've been trying to get the "bested ____" trophies for killing the bosses without taking any damage, but that damned centipede is damn near impossible to kill without taking damage.

My personal Nemesis in this game is the stupid Octopus...I hate bosses with too little room to maneuver properly...

So...after today´s job interview I guess I´ll finish Alan Wake...really better than I expected but then again I didn´t wait 5 years for it in hopes it would be the next Max Payne or Undying or whatever but it´s still a very good game with some well placed humor even...

A: The Bright Falls General Store is now my favorite place in the entire world!
B: What´s with the head lamp?
A: What this? It´s like a fucking superpower! I look at these things and they die! Like my own personal flaming eye of Mordor!
B: What?
A: I shouldn´t have said that, man that sounded stupid...
B: Hey, I want a head lamp!
A: Last one man.
B: Bastard!

And I´m not even getting started on the Children of the elder god...

I picked up the 3D Dot Game Heroes last night. This game is awesome. If you own a PS3 you NEED this fucking game. Phenomenally phenomenal.

I finally got to Gran Pulse in FF XIII. Killed some triffids.

REEED DEAD REDEMPTION

Red Dead Redemption reminds me a lot of True Crimes for some reason. Maybe it's because you're a good guy and you can help people randomly. I dunno. It's decent though, I just wish the cover system wasn't so wonky all the damn time. Actually, the controls in general are kind of wonky.

The first red dead revolver was crap. GUN was 1000 times better.

Gun was crap. :rolleyes

I beg to differ. :|

Trauma Team came out for Wii today. It's basically the Trauma Center games, except split between 6 different doctors, so you investigate crime scenes as the forensic chick, or repair bones with drills and shit, or slide an endoscope into people and remove tumors, and diagnose people, plus the usual Trauma Center stuff with the main character.

Gun really was crap. Red Dead Revolver kicked ass.

I preferred GUN. Red Dead Revolver graphics were primitive for the time and the enemies took too long to kill.

There's a very major style difference between the two games. It's like comparing John Wayne to Clint Eastwood.

Very different, even if you can't see it.

Finished Alan Wake. One or two things could´ve been done better but still, a fun ride, guess I´ll play it again on Nightmare to get the last manuscript pages. Now to finish 3D Dot and then go hunting for an early Red Dead Redemption in the area.

AND I got a job, wheeee.

i liked red dead revolver better too :( i really loved the quick draw thing that was so fun. I loved the one when you have to fight that black whore and there's those three dudes that you gotta duel

YOURE GOOD, BUT IM BAAAD

OxBlood congratulations on the job. Red Dead Revolver was horrible, Gun had better controls, graphics, gameplay, storyline, etc. Gun was a much better game.

Gun did have good controls and graphics but other than that... Cant say I was that impressed with it. The world was much smaller than I had hoped and the game itself was rather short. Like Kahl said the quick draw thing in Red Dead was way fun plus it had multiplayer.

However this game kick both of their asses.

Red Dead Revolver captured the theme of the Western movies a hell of a lot better, and that was pretty significant for me. Gun just fell really flat in that regard.

Also, you retards realize that Gun was on 360 and RDR was on xbox, right? Maybe don't try to compare graphics.

Both were released on PS2.

but gun was also ported to the 360 my favorite and probably only good thing about gun i recall was voice acting

Evidently, it was on pretty much every console. Still sucks. Yeah, the only good thing about it was the voice acting.

I'll take a game from Rockstar over fucking Neversoft any day.

I think I returned Red Dead Revolver on the first day of my rental. I should try it again but I think I'll get the same result. Annoyance and disappointment.

Playing with the mortician in Multiplayer was bomb as fuck.

I was tearing it up with his machine gun.

Alright so I played 5, 6 hours of Red Dead Redemption and I love it. And I´m not even into the wild west...what can I say, I already like it a lot better than GTA4 I think. The missions are better and a little more relaxed, the whole world gives off this feeling of peace and space...nicely done so far. I´m still in the first big area though.

I hated how the first mission that you get to shoot something, it's fucking rabbits. Really rockstar?

I did a bunch of area side missions, collected a bunch of pelts, fought some kie yotes then rode through some brush....off a cliff to my demise. >:

DAM YOU BRUSH! Volt Ghost's only weakness!

:domo

God forbid a game has a tutorial area. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I liked how it slowly got you back to your old Outlaw-Ways. First it´s rabbits, next it was coyotes and vultures, then I punish the wicked :D

I haven't really gotten to punish anything yet.

I am knee deep in the posse though.

www.google.com

has pac-man built into it today.

how do i shoot birds from a moving train i'm triying to complete the sharpshotter challenge

1) Get on train

2) Wait for train to start moving

3) Pull out your gun

4) Find a bird

5) Shoot said bird

I have to admit I just spent 30 minutes playing it

Of all things you could shoot, why pick harmless bunny rabbits? Would you be fine shooting harmless, girly animals in any other game?

Would you have been happier if it were rattlers?

Mario Galaxy 2 was leaked!!!

And it's awesome. The opening moments are great, and Yoshi's so much fun. I hear there are 240 stars in this, too.
