They are beautiful games, but take too damn long and are very slow. Of course this is all part of the ambiance, but i've been a resident of San Andreas for too long and so i'm used to blowing up planes and stabbing passers-by at will. |
|
Wisper, you really should control your urge to stab passers-by at will, that could lead to a very bad habit... |
I've spent whole afternoons just stabbing the poor pedestrians or beating them to death with a fire extinguisher....then taking pictures. The chainsaw always creates a nice pile of bodies, and (my favorite part) once the ambulance arrives you cut up the paramedics too. Then i go and eat some tacos and buy a new outfit. Oh Rockstar Games, i love you <3 |
Manhunt Watching someone make the guy chop off someone's head, then say, "That was fuckin' cool..." is just w.r.o.n.g. |
Take a flame thrower to a crowded bus station? Beat your girlfriend to death with a baseball bat?? (I'm no good at dating) Plow down anyone in your way with a wheat thresher??? All this while learning L.A. landmarks :D |
I have never really gotten into GTA. I tried the first one and it kind of bored me. Have you all tried any of the Fatal Frames? I like the survival horror over the third person shooters any day. (Resident Evil is more a third person shooter then a survival horror in my opinion). |
|
I'm not big on games that mirror reality. I like moving colorful musical blocks, rolling all of existence into a ball, and hitting "nobodies" with a giant key. (respectively) |

Hmph ex-idiot friend - idiot-exfriend. |
|
sorry to interrupt. TBone, i have a music recommendation. go see MOFRO at The Other Side - they're playing there on the 23rd of this month. as you were. |
FPSs just don't do anything for me. I played Halo 2 with my brother the other day....so unsatisfying. First of all, there's no sense of (what's the word I want) endeavor. Problem solving. You don't really work for anything, you just fire away. Secondively, when you're playing Halo 2 with two people, the screen's all funky and it's impossible for me to get my bearings because I feel like I've got blinders on. I - can't - see - anything. So the whole time, I'm concentrating on orienting myself and figuring out where the other player character is in relation to mine and which way is up and how do I swing around to find that...monster thing...behind me, and I can't see the weapons on the ground, and Man, I'm old. On the other hand, open-ended RPGs like Morrowind strike me as a colossal waste of time. I played that game for, like, 15 hours before I realized how utterly pointless it was. I guess you can say that for all video games, but, shoot, Morrowind actively made me want to read a book instead. |
I was wondering about that. I trying to figure out if he used to be an idiot or used to be a friend or what... I cannot understand things like Everquest. The name says it all. Ever questing does not sound like fun to me, I want the damned quest to end sometime! |
|
Shoot em ups give me bad motion sickness. I like Sim games, I'm addicted to Sims 2, I love fucking with peoples lives. |
|
where you going? |
I love Carl, I understand Carl. Carl needs the same things that i need- money, a house, food, exersise, sleep, new clothes, and a motherfucking rocket launcher. Not like those other RPGs. Mythril shards? The fuck is that? |
I've actually been pretty tempted to pick up one of the recent GTAs. Going to Vancouver. Anniversary's the 24th. |
