BruceVC Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/08/30/the-pc-gamer-top-100/ So another list of 100 best PC games of all time but from the very credible PC Gamer Not a bad list but I question there number 1 game "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Volourn Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Interetsing choice. ME2 si a really good game but best? It might not even be top 5 BIO games. No NWN. BOOOOOOOOOO! Thank GOD KOTOR series didn't make it. FO3 over FO:NV. Not surprising but laughable nonetheless. FO2 should be on the list as well. Dunno how they can have ME3 on there but not ME1. COME ON. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Thank GOD KOTOR series didn't make it. FO3 over FO:NV. Not surprising but laughable nonetheless. FO2 should be on the list as well. Dunno how they can have ME3 on there but not ME1. COME ON. I agree, I am surprised by some of the choices "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Volourn Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Plus FF7 and no FF8? Again, not surprising, but plain wrong. Kind surprised no Gothic game made it either thoguh they aren't my absolute favorites I know they have their fanboys. Friggin' Twitcher... *twitches* L0L ES L0L DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Majek Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 credible PC gamer? rofl. The dorito pope is more credible than pc gamer. <_> 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Humanoid Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 I'd be curious what a collaborative Obsidian forums top-100 list, but I suspect I'd have no fewer issues with it. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Volourn Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 That's easy. The top of the list would litter with Obsidian/BIS titles. Through in some BIO, Twitcher, ES, and any other RPG you can think about to tidy up the bottom half. It might be the only top 10 lthat includes IWD2. <> DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
prodigydancer Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) credible PC gamer? rofl. The dorito pope is more credible than pc gamer. <_> Seeing trash like Doom 3 and Diablo 3 on their list I'm inclined to agree. GW2 doesn't exactly deserve the accolades either. Maybe it's just me but even Rift was better. And where's Starcraft? Where's SC2? Where's WC3? /facepalm Edited August 31, 2014 by prodigydancer
Meshugger Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 After reading that list, i am no longer surprised by the dumb comments at imdb.com. They are not trolls, just people with horrible taste.

Bester Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 I'm considering buying the Oculus dev kit. Does anyone own one, is there any stuff you can already play with it? IE Mod for Pillars of Eternity: link

Keyrock Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 I'm considering buying the Oculus dev kit. Does anyone own one, is there any stuff you can already play with it? I don't own an Oculus, but I do know that there are games out that support it. I own (at least) 2 games that support Oculus: Euro Truck Simulator 2 and World of Diving. Here is a list of games and applications that support Oculus. I'm not sure if all of these are out yet or what the rating numbers mean.

Lexx Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Wasn't it said that the "real" Oculus version will be released somewhere around this christmas? If so, then I'll guess it would be better to just wait a little longer and get the real deal, no?

Blodhemn Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 The only Saints Row game I played was the 3rd and it's just another jack of all trades open world game that quickly becomes uninteresting after the start of it. I finished the game but will never play another, which seems to be my attitude towards most games these days.
nipsen Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 ..Saints Row 2 was actually really well written. Very accomplished at tying the story-telling into the mechanics as well. That you played into and out of events while controlling the pacing, instead of just triggering cutscenes. While the writers were aware enough of the unreal way the game works that they never took themselves too seriously either. And you could spray-paint entire suburbs with a septic-tanker put in reverse. You see a not entirely failed attempt at that in the latest games as well. That the story-telling tries to create scenarios that are fantastic enough that the ridiculous mechanics and gameplay the games in the genre has fits into it. Really is the entire premise of SR4. 4 The injustice must end! Sign the petition and Free the Krug!

Still sounds about as much fun as the insurance fraud mechanic. I just can't get into sandbox games anymore but obviously a lot of people still like them. Edited September 1, 2014 by Blodhemn

I, in general, loathe sandbox games, but have enjoyed the two saints rows I've played (3 and 4) tremendously. I tried a demo of 2, but it had terribad controls on the ps3 that couldn't be remapped into anything sensible (at least in the demo). You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?

HoonDing Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 Insurance fraud is really easy when you can fly. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
ShadySands Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 I gave up on SR2 pretty early on because it didn't run very well on my PC at the time but 3 and especially 4 are some of the most fun I've ever had gaming 1 Free games updated 3/4/21
HoonDing Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 SR3 was a mess, but understandable considering THQ went belly-up not long after the game released. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

I tried a demo of 2, but it had terribad controls on the ps3 that couldn't be remapped into anything sensible (at least in the demo).SR3 just felt like Just Cause 2 with an actual story and bigger variety of the samey missions, and I hated JC2. Not saying it's horrible, but definitely something I'm not into anymore. Insurance fraud is really easy when you can fly.That's not the point. It is easy but it's more like, why is that even in a game? It's not fun. Doing it once was more than enough.
