[Mr. Bigglesworth]

Eh, I don't really care much to check out GTA 5. GTA IV was already pretty average anyway. Mostly because the vehicles handle like they have a hippo on a 10 foot pole on top of them. I have steered a car a few times and not once has it flipped over and exploded, so I call it bad vehicle mechanics.

In other game stuff; I borrowed Bioshock Infinite from a friend. I think it's alright, but it suffers from the same problem all Bioshock games do. Things are drawn out to the point where if you for some reason have to restart a chapter it is the most tedious thing ever to play it again.

Also I'm not a fan of Elizibeth. So far she's been useful all of twice for me. I mean, yeah she finds you ammo, but I can do that myself very easily. The most useful thing she seems to do is find me health.

Also me and a friend are playing through Fear 3 together. The gameplay is alright but everything else is kinda crap.

The games mean to be comical so yea... But I agree the fucking cop cars roll on every corner... But apparently they've fixed the steering mechanics. I love gta 4 and it's my most played game so yea...

[Acsii]

[itroitnyah]

Doing go- hold up, that's not what I'm here to talk about

Check this shit out.

Bam. Muh. ther. fuck. ers. All that time of making jokes about half life 3 are now over. This is the real deal.

Gotta say, despite not being a huge fan of the HL series so far (only played the first one, gunna play the second one eventually, before 3 comes out), I'm pretty excited for this to be coming out.

You ain't fooling me, pal.

[itroitnyah]

Shit, haha. I didn't even notice. My friend didn't notice either. It looks so real too, lol

[Conduit]

Well at least it has sick music

[Ben]

gta 5 is pretty good , it has its boring missions but has a solid presentation , amazing things that make the world feel alive , pretty good soundtrack , most missions are fun
some missions suck

still saying windawaker is my fave game of all time that or kingdom hearts 2

[itroitnyah]

Oh, I forgot to mention though, that valve did apparently file copyrights for half life 3: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=688589

and none of the comments that I've seen about this seem to say anything about it being fake or proving it to be so.

[caprix snare]

I have an extra copy of trr first person to say trr gets it

[itroitnyah]

trr

btw, what do you mean by that. Do you mean that it's on steam and you have an extra copy of it for whatever reason?

[caprix snare]

yes its on steam .

[itroitnyah]

Wait, why would I want tap tap revolution?

[caprix snare]

terraria XP .

[itroitnyah]

Oh. Well, I was the one who said trr first... Soo... if you don't mind, that is. I always feel like a dick when I ask for a something that somebody is giving away for free when they only have one, haha

[Bloo]

[LFP]

Honorable mention to Supreme commander (FA not supcom 2) for being the freakin greatest RTS of all time ^^

[itroitnyah]

Thanks, caprix snare :)

With the coming of half life 3 (which according to this evidence is actually being worked on, and isn't just some troll thing, or the person who's faking all of these it really good, haha), I may have to beat half life 2 soon.

[Djeinus]

I played Outlast the other day. It was alright for the first part, where I had seen play through of and knew what to do, But it got genuinely terrifying when I got past that and I got near the shower part. Apparently that's not all that far either.

You should play it in Nightmare mode.

[Nine Volt]

Just got all 41 achievements on Dark Souls :)

Last one I got was the one for all Miracles, the Sunlight Spear being the last one I got. Also, getting the Moonlight Greatsword is fucking ridiculous. Took 6 tries, and I'm quite good at the game (though it was on NG+6, so Seath would kill me very quickly if I fucked up).

[Acsii]

Just got a perfect pit stop in f1 and finished 18th

[Mr. Bigglesworth]

I got bored of Bioshock Infinite. The gameplay is like other Bioshock games (in that I personally find it bland), the world seems like it's trying too hard to be artsy and god damn Elizabeth just didn't make a good character to play a game with.

For one, Tears.
These came up once in actual gameplay and in all honesty I got killed more trying to grab onto some new freight hook than I did just doing it the reasonable way and shooting from cover. That and they make Elizabeth seem really stupid. I'll explain why, but I'll put it in a spoiler.

Spoiler spoilers lol:

Ok so when we first meet Elizabeth she's in this little dressing room in front of a mirror and you're watching here through that mirror because it's 2 way etc etc she's a test subject, and she decides to open up one of these tears and a god damn firetruck is on the other side almost drives through it and kills her.

Later, when you're hotwiring an elevator, she sees a bee and gets squeamish about it. But instead of just squishing it like a sensible person she opens a tear to let it out there and we almost get murdered by a giant mechanical bird. After she is nearly hit by a firetruck from another dimension she will willingly open another one of these easily-very-dangerous portals to let a fucking BEE out.

That shits me. Who the fuck is that stupid?

And she finds Ammo and health precisely when you don't need it.

Honestly I just kinda got fed up with the game and stopped.

[Nine Volt]

Wait... were you playing the same game, Biggsy? Because there's Tears all over the damn place.

Also I liked elizabeth, if only because she didn't need you to protect her and actually did stuff compared to normal escort missions. but the stuff you said makes sense

well, different strokes for different folks i guess
