alanschu Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 He's saying that "them" got more than 1500 points. He's not comparing his score, just making an approximation of the score. He knows it was more than 1500. The first one is less than 200. In any case, I was playing Panzer General 2. I am now downloading War in the Pacific, Admiral Edition.

Starwars Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 If Dead Space actually gets less scary as the game progresses then I think I'll just move on to another game now, heh. It's too bad, they could've really done something extraordinary with the engine and the visuals.

Aristes Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I'm currently at the beginning of a new Fallout game. This time it's an uber luck build so I can get as many randoms as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too bad, they could've really done something extraordinary with the engine and the visuals. It's not supposed to be scary. It's an RE4 clone, with slightly better gameplay and monster design. It has a better story. Now, I know that's not saying much, but DS' story was actually entertaining for me. Don't expect anything brilliant but it was much more interesting than "The President's daughter has been kidnapped by zombies. Are you man enough to save her?". "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager.

As bad as Resident Evil's plots are, "everyone has been turned into monsters by an evil monolith, kill them" isn't any better. The end cutscene is pretty fun, though.

Darth InSidious Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Playing NWN2 OC. Currently a lvl6 CG human Warlock, and just got to Neverwinter. Anyone know what the gang quest(s) are like? Thinking of doing that instead of going with the Watch. This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter.

Finding out you've gone mental and have been hallucinating your wife/girlfriend the entire time was a pretty good twist to me. Edited July 28, 2009 by WILL THE ALMIGHTY "Alright, I've been thinking.

karka Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Playing Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance 2 on my good old XBox. This game is ****ing easy. Even easier than KotOR II. I'm playing as a 19th level necromancer. I have 118 unspent skill points and 250.000 golds. What a waste of time.

Nope, I just have some good ideas every now and then. But I can totally see you flashing back to the reality for a fraction of a second when really low on health or something with civilians running in terror and security guys trying to stop you as you murder them mercilessly. In the end the hive mind would send you away on the little ship and as you get further away from the monolith you'll see alternating scenes of you killing monsters and civilians, possibly ending with Issac putting a gun to his head. He stole my idea from the fantasy setting thread! ...He'd be better suited as a corporate spy. I haven't actually read that thread, but it is a theme in fiction. I can't think of an example, but wasn't it in one of the Greek myths? Also, being a corporate spy sounds like fun.
