do you mean youre playing your PS1 copy of RE3 on your PS3?
-
I've got the day off work, so I'm gonna be playing a few things today. :D
I'll probably go through the Heavenly Sword demo a few more times. I want to figure out more about the stances, and how to launch counter attacks.
I'll also be playing some more of Rainbow Six Vegas. I'm trying to finish up the single player for the first time. I'm a little late with this great game.
I'll also play some Super Stardust HD. I think it's probably one of the best shooters I've ever played. I think it craps all over Geometry Wars, and I loved that game as well.
-
Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
Etrian Odyssey
trying to get Ys VI to work with my computer :P
-

Thats the disk that in there - yes!
I need to finish the game and move on to beat Code Veronica and RE4.
I think I got to the end of Code Veronica once but I ran out of ammo.

I have been feeling the allure lately too.

well apparently not persona 3

Me too! Well I never played it before so I can't really "go back" to it but yeah - good game!
-
This is creepy, ive been pondering it too
-
digital devil fuckin' saga 2, ALLLLLL weekend.
-
can't resist dead rising -- 360 game of the forever
-
The control scheme kinda blows though. There's been SO many times when I want to pull out my gun and end up pulling out my fucking CAMERA and then getting gnawed to death by hungry zombies.

Himuro's post should have said
PLAYING MY 360 ON MY AWESOME NEW HDTV
but no, he's moping around like a cigarillo about some japcrap - fake gamer confirmed
off the top of my head--
PSP-
Final Fantasy - the updated visuals look nice, reminds me of a flimsy cheap japanese PC game)
Tales of the World - Good to turn on and do a few missions
360-
Tenchu Z - just need to Ninja 5 Normal and Hard difficulties and then I have all 1000 points
Probably fire up DiRT next
I loaned my Dead Rising to a friend and when I went to take it back, the disc was nowhere to be found. Probably just go buy another copy.
-
I focking love my FFI and FFII set for PSP.
-
360-Tiger Woods 07
PS2-On and off with some Guitar Hero I and II, and MGS3
DS-Yoshi's Islands DS again
Wii virtual console-Paper Mario omg omg
-
I too am playing Yoshi's Island DS. The level right before Bowser's castle is FUCK HARD. I beat it thinking that would be it, but then it opened up five new levels for me to play, which I haven't gotten to yet. But you get to be the black Yoshi, which is nifty.
-
Project Sylpheed.
-
Capcom's games are usually this way. Awesome concepting, great presentation, overall solid execution but ONE stupid fucking flaw that makes you want to hate the game.
I don't even mind the save system. I just hate some of the rigidity of the controls and that ITEMS BREAK AHHH.
-
I don't even mind the save system. I just hate some of the rigidity of the controls and that ITEMS BREAK AHHH.
Actually, now that you mention it - that's the thing I hate even WORSE than the controls. If they're going to make it so that you can only save the game in certain spots, could they please make MORE save spots? I got so frustrated doing a bunch of missions, dying and then remembering that I forgot to save and FUCK, I gotta do it all over?
That's motherfucking aggravating.

the save system rocks. it actually makes you think before acting. if you commit to trekking all across the mall and time runs out, then that's YOUR bad homie. :lol
ps. there's a shortcut in the mall somewhere. if you wanna know, i can tell you in a spoiler tag or some shit. but it's very handy.

Heavenly Sword demo
Super Stardust HD
Ninja Gaiden Sigma

how far are you in sigma? i stopped playing at about the 5th mission, so i need to get back into it.

I'm on the airship. I already played through the game on the Xbox, so I don't have a huge desire to beat it any time soon.

I've been going through a COD kick on the PC. And Civ 4. And Trackmania (it is fuck all awesome).
On PS3, Nocturne.
Tales of the World on PSP. Still noodling a bit on the DS every couple of nights with Etrian (aka GOTY).
-
I've never played a Call of Duty game, but I found COD 3 (PS3) for $20 used at a record shop. Is it worth picking up?

I only have experience with the 360 version, mind you, but if it's the first one you've played, you will probably like it. The main complaint people had was that it felt more like an expansion to CoD2 than a new game. The multiplayer implementation is miles better than CoD2, too.

The Capcom fanboi in me wants to try it - but I dont have any references on you (as in seen your thoughts on other games that i agreed/disagreed with)
Can anyone else confirm this games awesomeness?
-
If I remember right, it was developed by an American company, Capcom just published it for them.

Capcom publishes some real glass dildo's last gen - like that one fucked up final fight 3D clone on PS2 - I even forgot the games game it was so bad...oh yes! - Beatdown - Fists of Vengence....
DAMN that was bad :(
-
I play it true survivor horror style...
If I die - I start over ;)
Damn dude you are HARD to the CORE.
I think the game is meant to be played that way...I just use save when im alive and I want to turn it off and take a break....
When you start over next time it uses the same character save - its cool you get to start over, play better and wearing the same clothes you died in ;)
either way not continuing or using saves on some games is a habbit i carry over from my coinop days....i love that Resident Evil Outbreak file 1 and 2 are made to be played like this....gives it an arcade like feel....
Resident Evil: Deadly Silence for DS would have been the ultimate speed play version - it has the shoulder mapped combat knife, and the vs play made it great - the only thing that sucked is other players in the mansion were marked by colored markers, and werent really in your game just time/score competing.
Any RE speed players here? I got the best possible time on RE1 Directors cut for PSOne (best FAQ driven score) and I love to challenge the nemessis with the combat knife ;)
-
when I was younger, had a lot more time on my hands and a lot less games to play I could speed run Resident Evil 2 pretty good. I think I could finish it in around 1 hour 15 minutes
-
I never got a formula down for RE2. Did you play both disks as one total time?
I use to speed play the fukk out of Metal Geal Solid
-
All Pro Football for about 4 hours today. Woo.

Replaying this awesome game to prep up for PERSONA 3. Which I should have been playing instead! Even though I'm not playing P3, I'm happy to be replaying one of the top 5 ps2 rpgs anyways!
(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/51GefJUMccL._SS500_.jpg)
Sequel to the ultra cult survival horror hit Disaster Report! Also known as Disaster Report 2 in the land of the rising sun. It is a fun game, like the first one. That's good enough for me.

Outrun 2006
And Yakuza

Sega FTW

I started Devil May Cry today. I did the first two levels. It is....interesting.

I'd like to be playing Final Fantasy XI right now but the installation and update process is the longest and biggest pain in the ass to me than any other PC game I've played. Taking forever.

"Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology" :hyper
With an episode of some late night News Radio reruns playing in the background on Fox and its a Saturday Night...shuttin total

Is Everquest any good? I mean the actual game, not that PS2 version. I was thinking about looking into Everquest/Everquest 2 or Dark Ages of Camelot, too. I'm jonesing for an MMORPG but I don't want to play WoW anymore. I'd rather not play LOTRO either, even though it was enjoyable.
-
Not much. Tetris DS while I take dumps and some DoD: Source.

PSP is so great because you can pretend to like it solely because you dont ever have to pay for a game again! I love it! Need to get a flashcart next for my DS, I am done buying handheld titles. Just buy 360 games.

DS flashcart is good but with the older ones you have to use proprietary shit and it's such a hassle

But you don't need that stuff anymore, they got all the kinks worked out

Final Fantasy XI is neat so far. I'm a level 3 Elvaan Monk. I want Mupepe to get on so I can play with him, though. :(

I'm going to try to finish EDF on hardest (only 7 more missions) and I'm also going to try to get the achievement in R6 for finishing the entire campaign in co-op.
-
nothing but hardcore Civ4: Beyond the Sword here. Working my way through an Monarch difficulty game now as the Mayans right now, it's not too hard so I need to move up to Emperor for my next game.
-
champions of norrath is a beat-em-up cum diablo clone with busted loot tables and badly designed boss fights. but it has stats and loot. see, stats and loot. that's what i play games for: stats and loot.

Which one do you like best, out of Baldur's Gate (PS2/XBOX versions) 1&2, and Champions of Norrath 1&2? My favorite is still Baldur 1. It was one of the best looking PS2 games at the time and it was like a perfect combination of Gauntlet and Diablo. Norrath games looked good too but I barely played either one for more than an hour since they were just too much of the same.
-
Professor (and anyone else who may be able to answer) - from a game design standpoint, what do you think makes up a good loot-based reward system?
For me, this weekend I played a bit of Etrian Odyssey and Half Life 2. Both games I really like.

I guess the reward should be something that makes you feel like it was worth the extra time and effort. For example, a weapon or spell that will allow you to destroy enemies for the next 10-20% of the game. OTOH, it shouldn't be so powerful that you can breeze through the rest of the game with it like some of the FF weapons that people told me about.

Got wasted last night with a few buddies and played soul calibur 2, wario ware, red faction 2, and fzero gx for at least 4 hours before passing out.

in order of preference? baldur's 2 > champions of norrath >= baldur's 1 >>>>>>>> champions rta. I'd bump baldur's 1 higher if it wasn't for the jumping puzzles in the first act; champions gets a boost from the random loot but a ding for the generic locales and broken boss fights. return to arms is just plain bad. baldur's 2 has the homeliest art direction, but the best campaign and is an AWESOME JUST AWESOME 2P experience. i want MAF to bring it over some weekend so we can fuck some monsters up.
-
tiesto: what smooth groove said -- there should be a REASONABLE chance of you getting good upgrades every hour, and a small chance of getting a fuck awesome upgrade (that will let you fuck shit up for the next 10-20% of the game) over each 3-5 hours of play. also, lots of character customization in terms of skill and equipment, good boss encounters that work well for team play, and a wide variety of interesting skills in general.

good choices. Were you playing the GC Warioware? that game is amazing when youre fucked up
-
I have to say that one of the reasons I wanted P3 on day one on July 24 was because I have an absolute hankerin' for demon collecting right now. I've been wanting to do it for some time, but now that P3's been delayed I'm playing through Nocturne again. Here's hoping I'm not all SMT'd out once P3 comes out.
I got the 1000 Yen bill and I'm on my way to fight Metador, so I'm beefing my party up and preparing for him and Ikeburkuro. I'm level 16, need to get to level 20 or so, so I can create me a few pals that'll help out during the Metador fight. Izumi is really helpful in that fight!
-
god of war 1, it was cheap so i figured why not just buy and play it.
-
Im playing: Etrian Odyssey (Im up to B19F), Shenmue (just got up the the 3rd disc), Yakuza (just a couple of chapters to go). Outrun 2006 and Gradius V are my bits on the side. Waiting for my RE4 Wii Edition to turn up :maf
-
How are you liking Shenmue Scenester? The third disc is actually the best disc. It's got tons of action.
Be sure to play Shenmue II (DC version!!!) after beating it.
-
himu, how far did you get with DDS2?
-
I beat it when it first came out.
edit: Oh, you mean the replay? Not far. I just decided to go with Nocturne instead.
-
Im not playing anything right now :-\
I want p3

Yeah I was bummed when they delayed it. I cleared my entire gaming schedule for that game. :( When it was delayed I didn't know what to play. :-\
-
Haven't played anything in a while, but I finally started playing Baten Kaitos Origins again today. It's like the only GC game I have left that doesn't give me disc read errors. :(

Im finding Shenmue to really damn good, I understand all the hate the game gets though, its definately not for everyone. Graphically it still holds up extremely well, the textures are really sharp(looks better than most PS2 games IMO). The fight with the fucked up bald guy at the arcade was pretty scary :o . Well I havent 'started' the 3rd disc yet, just got to the end of the 2nd disc last night night saved it and turned it off. (Havent burned the 3rd disc off my PC yet lol) . But Im definately looking forward to playing the rest of it, and Ive got Shenmue 2 waiting for me so I'll play that afterwards. Once I finish Yakuza Ive got DDS1 and 2 to get through and BOFV... so I probably dont need to spend any money on games for a little while
-
The textures and the amount of detail that went into Mue is insane. The amount of detail those games have is still not topped, and I can only imagine GTAIV topping it.
I mean, Jesus. Look at this shot dude. And this is from 1999 for God's sake. :bow The lighting :bow
(http://www.nathantsui.com/upload/lpshen_20_24.jpg)

looks like shit
-
shenmue has some truly godawful art direction. it's garish, like a slug's viscera; it's colorful e-coli spread cross low poly environments.
and lighting? WHAT LIGHTING. there's a bad alpha mask shadow in that scene, himu, and that doesn't equal anything resembling good lighting. go back to your hinasturbation and quit commenting on game aesthetics!

DDS!!!!!!
-
i still haven't finished devil may cry. i think i gave up after that fight with the giant bird.
-
devil may cry 1 has some of the most aggravating boss fights ever. not because they are inherently difficult, but because the camera positions make it fucking impossible to gauge distance and attack patterns without regular trial-and-error.
-
If the weekend is as nice, weather-wise, as this past work week was, I'm not playing shit this weekend, just hanging out in my pool.
-
The camera was a pain in the ass for most of the game in Devil May Cry 1.
Why is Devil May Cry 2 so bad?
-
Yeah DMC2 is super boring and super easy. DMC3 the best game of the series by a mile. And the cutscenes are some of the funniest ever in a videogame
-
NEVAN LET'S ROCK!!!
-
I cant play DMC1 after DMC3.
also I hate the camera of these games but I still find a way to enjoy them. the combat system is pretty neat.

NEVAN LET'S ROCK!!!
My favourite one is where he rides the missile for a minute going "WHHHHOOOOOHOOOOOO" the wole time. And of course the opening scene with the pizza
