Sammael Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Finished King's Bounty: The Legend with a mage, replaying it with a fighter. It's only about 1000000000 times funner than HoMM. Can't wait for the expansion. There are no doors in Jefferson that are "special game locked" doors. There are no characters in that game that you can kill that will result in the game ending prematurely.
Calax Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 /cry Me and Deadly nightshade were fighting our way through dead air when the admin of the server came on, spawned a tank, then another tank after we'd killed the first one and then things just went strait to hell. Finially admin shut down the server as we got to a safe room. Until admin screwed us we were doing quite well (if slow) Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Hurlshort Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Saint's Row 2 - The customization in this game is just insane. Not just characters either, although being able to choose my swagger is phenomenal. But I took a car and customized every detail on it, rims, window tint, paint, even the wheel size. You can completely customize everything in this game, unbelievable. You can even adjust your gang's cars, clothing, fighting style...it just goes on and on. There's a plastic surgeon around for when you mess up too.

Calax Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Advanced (my normal level) It was insane. I forgot to mention in the long hall leading to the safe room right before the terminal another tank got spawned for us. we managed to kill it with an incap but still, three tanks in one section (one of the tanks with a horde spawn at the same time) was INSANE!

Hurlshort Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 I agree with the mobility along the wall. However, that picture you posted is a good example of how difficult it would be for an army to get over those mountains. Sure, a small force of men would scale those hills easily enough, but they'd also get over the wall easily as well. But armies have supply carts and lots of other rubbish that needs to be hauled along. Strategically it would only be necessary to build walls near the mountain passes. Any army that tried to march through those hills would be very vulnerable.

Maria Caliban Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 That is correct. It's not enough to make me want to play the game again though. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.

Morgoth Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 I played some 30 min of Halo 3 today. This must be the quintessence of totally generic SciFi. Utterly boring and disappointing so far. Rain makes everything better.
Wrath of Dagon Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 I think it gets better though, at least get to the third level. It always stays a bit generic, true, but I did enjoy the combat. "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity." Marshall McLuhan

Tale Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) I been playing Kane's Wrath and Storm of Zehir. SoZ is intimidating me. I'm not entirely sure which quest I have is the main quest, but I'm sure the enemies are probably too high a level for me. Or rather, too high a level for my group's rogue, who keeps falling down. I need +2 armor. Edited January 12, 2009 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Llyranor Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 As much as I like the game, I wouldn't recommend Halo3 singleplayer to anyone. The numerous awesome vehicular sequences just wouldn't have nearly the same effect by yourself with AI. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)

Morgoth Posted January 13, 2009 Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) Halo 3 is a lot better (relatively speaking) when you play it in Heroic. It's still an average old-skool shooter though compared with the modern pendants from the Valve or Monolith design school. But I guess the success of Halo has more to do that the franchise is being judged more as a religion, rather than the actual game. Same as WoW. Who comes first, wins, so to speak. Edited January 13, 2009 by Morgoth Rain makes everything better.
