The video game thread

[Arc da Rat]

Has Gran Turismo (sp?) 4 been pushed back again? It was supposed to be comming out this month, and I haven't seen it listed for pre-order anywhere. What gives?

Tap ~ GT4 has been pushed back for a while now ... I think the release date is in the spring time ... But I will have to double check ... FF11 on-line comes out before it next month w/ HD ... Originally GT4 needed the HD to play, but I think they might change that or have not decided for sure ...

 

[sexy-girl]

sexy girl, do you know anything about the upcoming Star Wars game based on the 1942 gameplay? I forget the title.

to be honest its very likely it will be terrible ... cross platform game all done by one company usually turn out bad

 

[Romial]

Damn...

It sucks when you find this great server in BF42 and kick so much ass in it night after night after night until you knife the server owner and get banned.

*sigh*

Re: check it out

Final Fantasy 7 is going to be re-released on the PS2 (and possibly gamecube) with final fantasy x like graphics. its going to be packed with a 90 min movie that takes place during and after FF7.

"the prince of persia; the sands of time" is one of the best games ive played in along time, kinda short though. definatly lives up to the hype. has the original prince of persia NES game on the disc and can be unlocked if you complete the game 100%

if you got a gamecube check out metroid prime. most wicked game ive ever plyed, beautiful enviroments

*drools* I loooovvveeee FF 7

Actually, even though I am an RPG freak and a FF fanatic, I really didn't like FF7. I am awaiting the release of FF11 for PS2 (not the PC version which is already available). I also bought FF Crystal Chronicals recently for game cube. It is by Square Enix.

Like it?

I do, although I am miffed by them pushing the whole GBA connectivity thing to the point that I can't swap items between my characters without it. I'm going to have to badger my friend to bring his link cable and GBA just so I can swap my character's goodies around.

Otherwise, it's one of the most unique and addicting games I've played in a while. They did a great job of dangling enough in front of you to make you want a little more.

Mostly ~ Tarrew Marr & Tribunal, but I haven't played for a bit. I also have a few newbies on AB, RZ & one other server that I can't think of the name ...

I already have a GBA and a cable which I purchased to play Zelda Wind Waker. It is a very addictive game.

Tao Feng : Fist of the Lotus


Major cool points on this one, especially when you can break your opponents bones and incapacitate arms legs etc.

:::whew::: Them big words were troublesome.

It was a nice game but the distance between attacks didn't feel right.

Bring on TEKKEN 6!!!!

this is the last (maybe second to last) chance i'm giving namco on this franchise. i love the controll system, and the story arch but, i want some innovations. maybe some o/l play.
VF and DOA have been so much more innovative and challenging.

and know what? as far as 2-D fighters go, capcom is on thin ice, too.
i'm really leaning towards Guilty Gear, and a handfull of Neo-GEO titles i still play.

 

[Spaceboy]

Sweet, sweet replies. Still no takers on Xbox Live? For the record, I love Soul Calibur. Virtua Fighter is pretty awesome too. Too bad PS3 gets it first.

Tekken 4 was shitty (like VF 4) and that's when I gave up on them.

It's all about Soul Calibur, the best fighting game out.

 

[human_male]

I just have to interject... if anyone's planning to buy Star Trek Legacy, play the demo first. After twenty minutes of trying to come to grips with the controls I just put it back in the box and put it away.

soul calibur?

it's a flailer.

 

[Spaceboy]

Virtua Fighter is SO much better than Tekken. And Soul Calibur is the shit. Anybody else played the new Rainbow Six? Awesome.

 

[Bushido71XS]

I've got the new R6, but haven't played it yet, I'm still trying to wrap my head around Lost World and Gears Of War.


Damn 360 is awesome on a 42" LCD plasma screen!!!!!!!!!!

 

[sexy-girl]

playing supreme commander on the PC and tony hawks project 8 on the xbox 360 (nearly got all the achievements but is SO hard)

i need a faster PC for supreme commander though

 

[Spaceboy]

Haven't played Lost Planet, but I'm borrowing Gears from a friend to get the Insane playthrough achievements. If you want to play co op for the Dom achievements, let me know. And trust me, R6 is better.


Wait, a game girl?! I thought you were a myth! Yeah, I think I'm up to 600 pts. on THP8. I finished all the Pro stuff and played 50 online games.

 

[rydia57]

Me and the Xbox are not friends. I'll take a Gamecube, a Wii, maybe even a PS3 when it starts to shrink in price, but no Xbox for me. Twilight Princess is totally sweet tho!

i play on an old RCA flatscreen, and Gears of War is still kindof blowing my mind right now.

i haven't done any of the online stuff ... but i just need to get ranked number 1 and i've done all the offline achievements ... i'm on 93% goals done at sick but you need 95% to get the last challenge to get number 1

doing all the classic goals at sick was the best fun

The 360 really is a good system. Even I'm surprised. I have a gamecube, ps2, psp, I had a DS...yeah, I like games a little.

Sexy-girl: Wow, I tried a few of the classic goals at sick...you're hardcore.
