Yeah Bulletstorm does look uber fun, alot of fresh mechanics for a fps. Glad EPIC finally put some work into something aside from Gears.


I FINALLY finished Singularity after putting the game aside for damn near forever. Turns out I was 30 minutes away from the end of the game for the last few months. Pretty disappointing last level. Had the 3 possible endings deal...they were all fairly interesting but lack luster as well. Didn't feel all that accomplished in completion.

its awesome so far, i love the amount of depth in charecter creation. its so much more deep than most games which seem super basic (choose what he looks like, then choose warrior/thief/mage). there are so many classes and advanced classes even a shitload of races (most have advantages, but nothing that will break the game), you can literally map out a character from the start. i love the amount of weapons and armor. and as a nice touch your guy changes in appearace as he equips things...which should be a standard but i still run into games where this doesnt happen

i thought the companion characters were fucking irritating, it's pretty much impossible to play an evil character :/

^haha yeah they all suck, my guy is a planeswalker though, so hes badass




ive tried bulders gate 2 before, couldnt get into it in the least. maybe i didnt get far enough though

Just found out that American Mcgee's Alice sells for 100 bucks new nowdays. There is even one bookstore selling their one copy for 848 bucks. What the fuck. I shouldn't of opened that game, the art work was the best part about it.

DeadSpace is one game I despised the pc port of. Controlled so sloppy compared to consoles.

 

[isolation_years]

hahaha well theres something to look forward to....

just set it up, the mouse sensitivity needs to be turned way down or something, gonna have to fix that


rest of the game is wicked though, now im gonna grab a coupon and go get a sammich

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

Yeah the games bearable once you get used to it and fine tune the settings but yeah prefer the xbox.

 

[Scavneck]

One of those rare situations a shooter is actually better on a console.

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

^ Indeed. But I'm pretty sure its just because the PC version was a console port, instead of the other way around.

 

[BastardSonOfGod]

DOOM

 

[isolation_years]

yeah im pretty sure it was too



this is alright, controls do leave a bit to be desired though.



still an awesome game, scared me already on a few occassions

 

[PhlegethonVeins]

Hurry up and beat it so you're ready for the second game =)

 

[SatanDevilDiablo]

I hope Dead Space 2 is better than I imagine it will be. And I'd actually pay 200% if I could get Diablo 3 and Rage right now.

 

[Scavneck]

Yeah, and play Impossible Mode so you can really shit your pants instead of leaving a few farts.

I beat Dead Space 1 and really enjoyed it, so looking forward to the sequel next week.

Although after playing Amnesia I don't think it will be quite as scary now.
