What Games Are You Playing?

AC2 is definitely a copy and paste, the only difference was a second hand blade thing. its not really a game changer. 5-6 sequels? harry potter games maybe, call of duty was also stretched out but i KNEW what i was getting into so it doesn't really bother me. im pretty sure AC:Brotherhood and AC3 is more of the same. copy and paste. the new elements dont really redeem it for me, its just seems like a wannabe medieval splinter cell.

I have recently bought L4D2. I'm really happy with it. I'm still pretty green when it comes to it, but it really is fun when I find good players that actually communicate and can tell me where I go wrong. Can't put my finger on it, but this game really is a marvel to play. Especially realism mode and vs realism. Nothing quite as satisfying as having a genius moment and killing a survivors. Like charging one and making him fall to his death or drown, or playing as jockey and guide towards a gruesome death ^^ Realism mode really adds to it, since even moving one human away from the group is dangerous for him if teammates aren't aware of his position anymore. It is simply so much better than L4D 1

On a side note, I'm now downloading Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands. It looks great, and I'm more than pleased that they decided to go in the general direction of the Sands of Time. That was the game I liked the most.

Well, your seeing just one aspect of it. Hidden blade defines Assassins, so its ought to be there,, be it single or double. Moreover, in Ac2, u can hire your own factions and there's an economy system too which weren't in AC1.

I haven't played LFD2 yet but, Ive Forgotten sands. Well forgotten sands's graphics are nice but the combat is too choppy. I mean, you'll often find yourself torturing (clicking) the left mouse button ceaselessly..

hidden blades blades dont really define an assassin, their skill does. not that it would apply cuz ezio seems more like a killer that an actual assassin. hiring faction or having some sort of economy added doesnt really make it better, it takes away from the games core.

I've just finished Prince of Persia - The Forgotten Sands. Story was OK, combat was meh, but the platforming, visuals and general feeling was simply great. I enjoyed the Sands of Time style views, the palace looked great Combat got pretty dull, with only 1 button to use in any given situation: left click. Any enemy that wasn't impressed by left clicking on it could have been easily killed by the ice or blast powers. I thought Ubisoft would have gotten the idea, we all liked Sands of Time for the amazing views and good story, but also loved the Warrior Within combat. 1+1 = money, so why not?

Without giving out any spoilers, the ending was unimpressive, easily predictable with no real surprises anywhere. Still, every single bit of platforming was beautifully done and incredibly fun. It had me glued to the chair for quite a bit. I'd recommend it to anyone who liked any other PoP game.

Just picked up CoD 4 about a week ago. Plays great, campaign was a little short. Getting my snot kicked a bit on multiplayer but never having played the game before a 1-4.5 ratio isn't terrible.
There are a suprisingly decent amount of servers still hosting maps - matches. Although with any fps game like this after a few years you wind up with seasoned or hard core players and newer guys getting `naded to death, oh well it's still fun.
And I like how tons of prestige players camp and set claymores - so I swipe their damn flag, hope they like me now.

Everyone's surprised. It's story always leaves your mind tormented with so many questions as what's next...

Btw, your synchronization meter?

just been playing a bit of bfbc2:vietnam - lots of fun!

a bunch of new maps and weapons. most of the guns only have iron sights, only the snipers get scopes, so it's more close quarter stuff - oh and there are flamethrowers too! :devil:

All this fuss about games seems so sad to me. My sons step son has now moved out of the house and gone to live with his father, because his mother wanted him to spend less time on these games. The moment he gets out of bed in the morning his thumbs are going non stop. Likewise as soon as he gets home from school. Total addiction.

I play crown green bowls in the summer, and one of our team is twelve years old, he also plays cricket. In the winter he plays football. He is very slim, lively and intelligent. His younger brother is a fat little slob, who's thumbs are also going non stop. His mother who is also a first rate bowler brings them both to the green. The young one just sits in the club house with his game, never watches or wants to join in. He too is totally addicted.

For heavens sake why don't some of you get a life, and do away with these games? Most of them just involve killing, killing and yet more killing. What a state of mind to get into.

so by this definition everyone that plays computer games are fat, dull and dumb?

seriously, you come into Gaming forum and talk like this? :sarc:
