What Videogame(s) Are You Playing Right Now?

[AnOceanPearl]

I made a game save there and figured out the "good karma" way, but, that was boring, so Pint Sized Slasher it was!

[AnOceanPearl]

I appear to have encountered a game breaking bug.

 

Fuck.

 

My.

 

Life.

[Crusader]

Use a previous save file!!

 

And what was the bug? Was this for PC or a console?

[ToadMan]

Did you save in the moment immediately preceding getting hit by a large fireball? I did that. Not fun, but I always play RPG's with a ring buffer of saves, that way I can usually step back far enough to correct my mistakes, but not so far as to have to replay hours.

[AnOceanPearl]

In the Waters of Life quest after

your dad dies and you have to escort Dr Li

, exiting the room causes the game to freeze while it loads the next area. This is on 360.

[ToadMan]

That sucks. As a suggestion (minor spoiler but only about the Next Mission)

If you want to get more side questing done, you should do it after this quest ends. Otherwise you will get sucked into the endgame quests (this starts once you take the quest to vault 87).

[AnOceanPearl]

I've put like 30 hours in and have hit level 20, I've done lots of sidequesting and still wanna do more. I just wanted to do it with some Power Armor ;)

[Doormat]

Power Armour is ugly ;)

 

Tesla Armour though...

 

Or the overall more pro, Ranger Armour.

I am all about Left 4 Dead these days. It is by far one of the greatest multiplayer games I have ever played. Online Co-op more than makes up for the lack of campaigns.

[AnOceanPearl]

I'm getting a new ethernet cable today so I can play on live, we should swap gamertags. I'm probably gunna be getting Left4Dead today while I'm out.

[noise_pollution]

Yeah that is a good idea. Here is my tag:Parch 867 5309

How much does xbox live and etc cost you guys?

[AnOceanPearl]

XBOX Live is $60 a year, I do believe.

Left 4 Dead for PC has some major glitches right now. Namely SUPER SPEED.

 

Pretty damn annoying, due to shitty human reflexes.

 

Needs more content too :/.

 

Versus is just frustrating/raging sometimes.

I got Sam & Max for Wii, for my birthday.

 

It looks great, but I have yet to try it.

 

Also got Wario Shake-It-Up for Wii

[Prometheon]

HAhaha Wario Shake It is pretty fun. It got a little boring once the novelty had worn off, but you'll have some fun times with it.

[Muran]

I have OCD and I love mini-game games. I am the Bishi-Bashi CHAMP.

 

I think I will never get tired of it. lol

[prototypepariah]

wii = children's toy. all the games i've played 5? have been brutal the hype is soooooooo over done.

 

yippie the controller moves!!! SO DID THE FUCKING POWER GLOVE! get serious...

[Muran]

Some people take their video games way too seriously.

 

I think the wii makes video gaming very accessible. Makes a great party game, and you're not stuck spending 10 minutes explaining complicated button controls . I wouldn't classify it as a children's toy. Just maybe not a console for a "hard core" gamer.

 

I guess it's like the mac of video game consoles.

[ToadMan]

Agreed, it has it's place. It is second to none on party games too. Well... I mean Rock Band is pretty awesome to. But Wii has a better selection.

[Moonlight_Graham]

The Wii is awesome technology. The console has so much potential. But its unfortunate that most companies have no clue how to make a good game using the controller. Its too bad.

I don't think it's even about hardcore gaming...The graphics are brutal, the artificial inflated demand by not making enough is bunk, and the controller isn't even precise. The games are for kids. I don't even see the value in them as party games(imo) Rock Band is a joke for wii. Every game that is multi platformed looks like it belongs on a n64 when it comes out for wii.

 

People definitely dig it but all the tricks that people like about it are old hat, like I said the controller is the power glove 20 years later. "OH BOY you can FISH with LINK!!!" go out and fish in real life...

[AnOceanPearl]

I can assure that Resident Evil 4, No More Heroes (and it's upcoming sequel) and the upcoming game Mad World are certainly not kids games. I won't deny that there is a whole lot of family friendly content on the Wii, but there are some "adult" games that have made their way to the Wii, with more coming down the pipeline.
