Llyranor Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I'm downloading the Armed Assault multiplayer demo ^______^ This game will be godly. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyranor Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I'm playing Gears of War. I played the campaign for a bit, and it seemed solid enough. I hope it's not too long, because I tend to lose interest in shooting stuff over and over and over again. I also played the MP for a bit, and that was a blast. It's a pretty quick game and there's a decent bit of strategy. I went 2-10, so I have a lot to learn. At least I got to chainsaw one guy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The campaign's fairly short. If you have someone you can coop with, go for it. Coop is awesome. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tale Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Silent Hill I'll probably play all 4 in order. Good luck! I've tried, oh god I've tried. I have all of them sitting at my apartment and I've at least played each of them, just never finished. Heck, for 1,3, and 4 I haven't even saved.

When I played 2 I was on a good roll and could have beaten it, but got sidetracked. 1,3, and 4 I only played to "try them out" and was too scared to continue.

Llyranor Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I forget, do Resident Evil games have any story continuity between them? I've never played any of them since I don't have the system for them, but I might RE5 since it's coming out on 360 (and I might RE4 once I get a Wii). In any case, RE5 news: Capcoms resident Evil 5 (PS3, Xbox 360) will come most likely 2008 on the market. That said producer June to Takeuchi in the Famitsu Xbox 360. According to Takeuchi Capcom wants to bring the picture rate on 60 fps. The environments in resident Evil 5 should be more interactive than in the predecessors. In addition cold weather and heat should be very important components of the play mechanics. With the engine it is to be graphically possible that one provides the Polygon face of a character with some muscles, so that very realistic face expressions and animations are possible. Likewise the hair is to be extremely realistically modelled, by the root up to the point. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llyranor Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Erm, it's been known for a while now that RE5 is 360/PS3. The Wii is getting a sidestory called Umbrella Chronicles (-____-). (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diogo Ribeiro Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Ack, that's the best one. Do you have a Playstation? You could always get the old PS1 version. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I had one... Right until Symphony of the Night, even. After a while the lack of games that interested me was almost non-existent, so I sold it off. I do have a PS2 though so running SH1 on it should be fine, except most places I turn to people tend to overprice the game (like SotN, which is usually at 200+ euros). I'll keep tracking it down, though. After all I've waited to get my hands on an official version of Wizardry 8 for years and I managed to get one just in time for the short Codex retrospective I did on it, so not all is lost.

From Zero to Code Veronica is pretty much one arc. With RE4 a new story with old characters. RE5 is tied to all of them from what I've heard. There will be a RE for the Wii though that has parts from the first four "numbered" games that's supposed to contain and enchance the whole story. I had one...

Llyranor Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Or if you have a 360, SotN will be released early next year via Xbox Live Arcade. To be on-topic, I got Castlevania Portrait of Ruin this week. Awesome game. I got the preorder package which includes a soundtrack CD with tracks from apparently all previous Castlevania titles, an art book, a stylus, a gamecase, a poster. It's pretty neat. Though, aside from this, the only other title I've played was Dawn of Sorrow, so most of this is over my head.

Some bigwig at Capcom quit in protest when RE4 was ported to the PS2, because of said Nintendo exclusivity. Shame, too. If RE4 had stayed GC exclusive, it would have actually made the GameCube a half-decent choice when considering what console you wanted to buy. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!

Kor Qel Droma Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Superman Returns on the 360. It's nothing too impressive so far. Even the graphics aren't all that and a bag of chips. I think I still like the Spiderman movie games better, but I'll give this more of a chance a bit later on. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

Dark_Raven Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Diablo 2 (LoD) and Diablo - age old favorites, though now somewhat modified with things like infinite stashes, capped monster resistances, no experience at death, reasonable rune-drop odds, and much, much more. I get full ladder benefits while playing singleplayer, plus stuff you'll never find on B.net, like Tempered Items which have dark green descriptions and can only be created/upgraded in the Horadric Cube. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good times.

Mikami moved to clover, which was a Capcom owned company... it's like saying you're moving out an apartment complex... then move into the apartment across the hall. He also said he'd decapitate himself if RE4 went to the PS2. Capcom's only real mistake about RE4 was anouncing the port "before" the GC version was released.
