Actually I think he plays everything at once.

Pretty much, yeah -- especially when I want to take a lil' break from somethin'....

Pugnate · « **Reply #121 on:** Tuesday, May 01, 2007, 10:22:06 AM »

I think that's my problem. I play too many things at once and become overwhelmed and instantly turned off. I have 600 GB of HD space so I installed every game I had, and then couldn't decide what to play

I am currently playing Chaos Theory and am 75% through it. I love the game. Also on the PSP I am going through the world tour option of Virtua Tennis 3. The mini games kick ass.

I think D needs to outsource a little. Seriously, dude. You play every game out there for like 2 hours then stop but leave it installed on your HDD for no apparent reason, and then you see every movie ever made and make threads about them. I think you seriously need some books in your life.

But who am I kidding? He won't listen to me. The printed page is lost on this generation.

Unless its a pick-a-page book I think the printed page would be too linear for D to handle.

Y'know, Jedi's got a point...

...Though, I watch movies and they are often quite linear...

You need to get one of those books that you can choose the ending. You know, if you choose door number 1 go to page 235- those sorts of books. Very open ended. And fun.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #126 on:** Tuesday, May 01, 2007, 10:31:30 PM »

No. No he doesn't. He needs to sit down and read an actual book with real lasting value.

idolminds · « **Reply #127 on:** Tuesday, May 01, 2007, 10:45:15 PM »

Que, we should totally write a choose-your-own-adventure book! It could be about zombies!

Page 2: "...and then you hear a scream. If you want to investigate, goto page 40. If you want to ignore it and look for ammo, goto page 45."

Page 40: "You crack open the door to look for the source of the noise, and 30 zombies pile in and eat your brains. You die. The end."

Page 45: "As you're looking for ammo, 30 zombies bust down the door and eat your brains. You die. The end."

Quemaqua · « **Reply #128 on:** Tuesday, May 01, 2007, 10:51:05 PM »

Dude, we should completely do it. I write, you take care of formatting and general plot development? And for the cover, I can draw horrible zombie death lineart and you can color it! This idea is actually sounding more awesome even though I was joking a second ago. We could sell this stuff to nerds like us on lulu.com and make moneys! We totally should!

You guys should make a comic with it, that'd be sweet.

I'm currently playing Shivering Isles.

Oh, and I installed Fallout 2 on my Win XP PC -- and played that for a lil' bit.

Xessive · « **Reply #136 on:** Wednesday, May 02, 2007, 10:22:24 PM »

I just installed Infernal. I don't if anyone knows of it. I think it was originally called Diabolique or something. So far it's a pretty decent game. Quite good looking too, and performs extremely well!

The only noticeably bad thing so far is the lip-sync, but it doesn't ruin the game for me.

I'll let y'all know how it turns out.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #137 on:** Wednesday, May 02, 2007, 10:37:23 PM »

Definitely let us know. I was pretty curious about that one. For some reason I thought it got canned.

Yeah I thought that too when Eidos announced that they dropped "Diabolique," but it seems they just dropped the title and renamed the project.

There's actually a really weird thing between this game and myself.. I mean artistically.. A while back, around 2002 when I was still in university, I had a graphic novel idea which I had called "Diabolique" and a lot of the ideas I had at the time seem to manifest themselves in the game! It's like telepathic plagiarism! How did they know?! Holy sheet! One of my characters resembles the main character of the game too hehe, well same hairstyle anyway

I just started playing Vagrant Story. I got the wireless adapter for my 360 controllers and I've been using them with epsxe. I just finished SOTN, which was as amazing as it was the first time I ran through it, but I never played Vagrant Story before. It's great so far, but I haven't gotten too deep into it yet.

I got to The Swamp in PAINKILLER, fighting that big ass swamp thing boss that....

I wish more FPS's had bosses as bad-ass and such awesome boss fights like PK does.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #147 on:** Sunday, May 06, 2007, 06:35:12 PM »

I am *still* having trouble with Vagrant Story. I really do like it, but for some reason the game just hasn't completely clicked for me yet. I've taken a long break from it due to some problems with the rip I had for my PSP, but... eh. Eventually I'll figure it out. I just love the art design and storytelling so much that everything else is irrelevant.

I was at Sy's the other night and got in this hardcore MGS mood that I haven't been in in years, so I'm ripping MGS for my PSP and I picked up Acid. If all goes as planned, maybe I'll actually go back and finally beat MGS 2. I found 3 for like 10 bucks not too long ago, but I really can't play it yet because I want to finish 2.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #148 on:** Tuesday, May 08, 2007, 12:32:26 AM »

So... now I'm playing through MGS on my PSP and MGS2 on my PS2. I can't believe how fucking good MGS2 still looks. There are current gen games that don't look this good. And I really don't know what it was that caused me to kind of go sour on the stealth thing and the MGS games, because I'm having a blast this time around. Maybe it's just the fact that it's been about 5 years since I've played one. In any case, I'm very happy to get reacquainted with the franchise. It seems I was really missing out after all. I always wanted to love them because I was such a gigantic fan of the NES games when I was a kid, and I guess it just took some time away to rekindle the romance.

Nice. Those are two of the best games I've ever played. MGS2 still looks great even on PC!

I just bought Rogue Galaxy a few days ago and I've been playing it ever since. It is tons of fun. Yay for sci fi RPGs!

Funny I check in to this thread. I reinstalled MGS2 on PC, and was just thinking that...hot damn it looks good.

Quemaqua · « **Reply #153 on:** Tuesday, May 08, 2007, 06:02:47 PM »

I hear you, keebs. That bugged me a bit too. Then again, I never played any MG games because the dialogue or situations were at all realistic. Now I sort of enjoy the fact that they're completely nonsensical. It used to bug me (forgivable for NES, but not so much for a pretty serious PSx game with heavy exposition), but for whatever reason I find it all really amusing and endearing now.

Totally hooked on Dawn of Mana, still slowly progressing through FFXII, and still hoping to jump back to the MGS thing I was doing before I got sidetracked. Put a large chunk of time into Metal Gear AC!D which I was loving... looking forward to trying MGS3.

Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door. But I'm progressing very slowly. Not playing it as much as I want to.

I'm into the third act of Call of Duty 2 on the 360. I also occasionally pick up Guitar Hero II to keep my skills merely bad, rather than awful.

I still been meaning to play that on my PC, since I got it installed and all.

Though, I need to finish CoD: United Offensive first...
