Re: The Game Chat Thread

Well everyone has their opinions and mine is that it's one of the worst games on the xbox. Haven't played many games?Gamerscore lol. Maybe i was expecting too much of it after a few people said it was like ME. Ahh well too late now.

Well the "haven't played many games" bit was sarcasm Seriously though you are not the first person I've seen calling it one of the worst games they've ever played/one of the worst games on 360 etc and I genuinely don't get why.What exactly is so terrible about it?There is a lot of way worse games out there, like virtually any movie tie-in for example

[Quadnike]

Well i thought the ai was rubbish the level design is bad. The weapons suck i didn't even use them i just used hand to hand and the i found it boring. I looked at some player reviews on raptr and most of the people were saying it's good. Also it wasnt half finshed they delayed it becuase of MW2 for 6 months i think and for that 6 months they didn't go near it.

Ok fair enough that's all I wanted to know.I still think that calling it "one of the worst games on xbox" is a tad harsh compared to the likes of this though http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/yaris or in fact any of the games on this page http://www.metacritic.com/browse/games/release-date/available/xbox360/metascore?view=list&num_items=100&page=9

Well maybe i overdone it by saying the worst game. Yeah most of those games are movie games not surprised.

BioShock-2--Minerva-s-Den--DLC-Coming-To-XBL-Next-Week

-Mass-Effect-2-Shadow-Broker-DLC-Incoming

Looking forward to the ME2. Might pick up the Bioshock 2 one if its lengthy

[SilentHunter]

I was going to get the Shadow Broker DLC but at 800msp and it being a bioware dlc i don't think I will get it ATM.

[Quadnike]

Ya never know could be good .

[SilentHunter]

Who knows. Ill be checking out reviews of it first.

[warrior00]

Okay i started playing HALO 3 ODST and so far i dont like having to keep looking for health packs and weapons. And then in level 2 i started with one gun and hand gun thought it would be enough went through door and came across 3 brutes and 1 engineer ran out of bullets and health so frustrating. But still enjoying it.

[crow-feet]

my face is melted playing fallout. i only have 3 side quests left then i can continue the main story which im about half way through and finish the game. i've been stock piling gear ever since i got a house, the unnecessary amounts of weapons and armor i have.. (just got power armor training there but its too late to play now..

[warrior00]

Actually there are loads of health packs when u dont need them and im better at playing it now so dont need as many. But still prefer when u didnt need to collect health packs.

But im still finding weapons and ammunition hard to find and it not good tackling Hunters with a plasma pistol.

[warrior00]

U wouldnt beleive what happened to me with Halo ODST was playing it last night and got half way through went to play this morning im back at the beginning. Really pisses me off i thought it saved automatically.

Play the Rookie stealthy, you're meant to figure that out when the overshield brutes keep handing you your ass on a plate

(just got power armor training there but its too late to play now..

i didn't even feel the time pass with the sidequests and I did all of them before Galaxy News Radio. I'm a hundred hours into Fallout 3 and still feel like I've only scratched its surface though. Such a game. Just wish people would stop asking "Have you played Oblivion?" when I mention it. Sure oblivion is also a big game, but when you realise it's just the same crypt over and over, it seems small

[crow-feet]

yeah oblivion doesnt have the same humour or interest as fallout. i cannot look at the brutal character animation and acting (plus the dreadful lighting) when playing oblivion without the fun of fallout.

also in oblivion i snookered myself by creating the weakest most handicapped character i could because i thought the combinations i chose would be good.. but thats another story..

point is i need to finish fallout 3 soon, im back in college soon and free time goes out the window. ive had the game since its release and only really started to play it like a month ago. i do believe its starting to kill me.. its like chemo for boredom.. well... better get back to the capitol wastes

[SilentHunter]

OMG I just lost the ability to use my parachute in Just Cause 2. I followed guides that might help. I really don't want to start the game over again.

Looks really good. As for the stuff about the guys voice, it wasn't a big deal, Game journalists don't have much fun in their lives outside games me thinks

[SilentHunter]

Picked up Dark Void and Super Street Fighter 4 today.

Picked up Dark Void and Super Street Fighter 4 today.

Great success, shall have to give you a game later. Anyone else here up for a bitta endless/team battle? I reckon Shocker could be persuaded.

[SilentHunter]

Ya sure. I can send shocker a message when we are playing it if he wants to join.

EDIT: The free Item you get for SSF4 suck if you played SF4. Colours FFS. I would have been happy if they were another outfit.

The retro style one is pretty cool. The entire costume pack is 16 quid, crazy but guess they want money from preowned sales!

[Quadnike]

Witch dlc coming out about morrigan in setpember for dragon age oirigns for 560 mp points. Exciting and also deal of the weeks of setpember Gamet Feast

[SilentHunter]

Sonic Adventure for 800.

Day one buy.

[Yggdrasill]

Sonic Adventure for 800.

Day one buy.

Awesome. Pity about the day it comes out though. Same day I go back to college.

[JohnnyCbad]

Looking forward to comic jumper and super meat boy

[dooley]

Pity there's no refund offer for that Game Feast promo like there was for the summer of arcade

Hydrophobia,Comic Jumper and Super Meat Boy all look good but I don't know if I'll get any of them straight away.I'll probably wait and see what price the WiiWare version of SMB is before deciding on that.I know there's no price announced for the Xbox version yet but I'm fully expecting it to be 1200 points because virtually every XBLA game costs that these days


In other news Trials HD dev RedLynx have announced a new WiiWare game

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2010-09-01-redlynx-reveals-motoheadz-for-wiiware

[SilentHunter]

Finally reached level 50 in borderlands and started playing the secret armory.

Spoiler:

[phlegms]

Bought "Plants vs. Zombies" today, its horribly addictive. Popcap may as well inject liquid heroin into my eyeballs, it would still be less addictive than the games they put out..

[SilentHunter]

Peggle is still their best game.

I won't be getting PvZ since my brother has it on his labtop.

Never found Peggle as addictive as they made out it was, have high hopes for PvZ though

[phlegms]

I'm finding PvZ way more addictive than Peggle. But I'm just an absolute fiend for tower defense games.

Buy Defence Grid. Best Tower defence game I have played.

Damn you bioware you made me want to download it now but I am still worried about the price since it is a bioware DLC.

[Quadnike]

560 or 800 would be a fair price if it was legthy looks class though

Its 800. If it were 560 I wouldn't be complaining about the price.
