RKMBs Forums .::Robegories::. Games and Tech What video game are you playing?

More Halo 3...also finally broke MK vs. DCU open. Not too shabby, but I'll never complete those Kombo challenges. Those are FUCKED...

Tribes 2. It's old. Very old. Pushing ten years. But it was fairly recently re-re-released as a free game.

Hulk for the PC. The old one based on the Ang Lee/Bana movie. It's infinitely more playable than that crapfest that's based on the Norton movie.

...although frankly I'm getting tired of videogames that are set inside dark, high tech looking science centers or dark gloomy caves and sewers. I spent 1.5k pesos on a decent videocard, it should be good enough to render sunlight and sky.

But you like it in dark places.
Thats where Mxy used to molest you!

mxy only molests livestock!

well you did buy that pantomime cow suit, so you were begging for it really

Word! Those and the ones in SFIV. Ain't never getting those trophies.

Yeah...I bought SF IV when it was on sale during my T.W.A.T. report. I heard that game's challenges and Seth are real fuckers.

I'm a big time 360 Achievement whore, but I'm not bothering with the combo Achievements...

just got my xbox back online so ill be back into left4dead

I still haven't finished Half Life 2. I need a better computer before getting into it again.

Have you tried the multiplayer yet? I just finished the single player last night.

if you know what he means!

Nah not yet.
Got a bit pissed off with the museum level and the possessor ghosts, so aint played it for a day or so.

Fucking love the story video though.
The attention to detail is fantastic, with every scar and blemish being included on each character.
The Venkman lines are pretty classic as well.

Bleach: Heat the Soul 3 and Dragonball Z Shin Budokai: Another Road for the PSP.

Bleach HTS3 has great graphics and a fairly straightforward control scheme, but very little replayability (something's wrong with a 1vs1 fighting game that can't be played over and over). It's a good game but only for a few hours.

...it's amusing, though. We almost always complain that big videogame sites' reviews can be a little bit skewed, and we'd rather trust the consensus formed by consumer reviews. But it doesn't apply for Bleach: Heat the soul, probably because everybody who bought the game and took the time to write a review is a drooling fanboy of the anime it was based upon. I didn't see anybody who rated it below 8.5, and everybody's saying how it's an awesome, exceptional game, even if you're not a fan of the series. The truth is the game is boring and will not stand on its own merit if you're not a fan of the series. Hell, I'm a fan of the series and I still thought it was boring after an hour or so of play.

Dragonball Shin Budokai 2, on the other hand, is an exceptional fighter even if you're not a fan of dragonball. It's even better than the ones on the Ps2, and the oversimplified controls is actually a plus, as it allows you to do what you'd really want with the characters, when you want it. (Press Down + Circle to go super saiyan, press Up + Circle to perform a huge beam attack, hold circle to charge, etc.)

....also have Naruto Ultimate Ninja Heroes. My impression of it is the same as the DBZ one above. My only complaint is that ninjas are not supposed to look that way. Why are they wearing bright clothes? Ninjas wear black because they need to blend in with the dark and be stealthy and shit. How are they gonna be stealthy with an orange suit? Are they trying to blend in with the environment while PJP and hulk hogan are having mansex?

All three seem to share the same oversimplified controls, with specials only requiring only 2 button presses, but the Bleach game sucked because the fighters tend to be slow, and the fights seem to be over in a few seconds. It sucks that you have these awesome special skills and transformations and glowing shit, but you won't be able to see it because the fight's over after 8 button presses.

Your mom. I'm playing your mom right now. Because she's a videogame.

I have a single GTX 260, but the game still freezes up at times. I have everything on high, but that really shouldn't happen.

Still digging MK vs DCU. Superman is a bad mutha...

Shut yo mouth!

I'm only talkin' bout Superman!

Ok, finished it this afternoon, but still not bothered with the online yet.
Thought the documentary about the restoration of Ecto 1 was cool.

Now not sure if it was just me, but did the end bosses seem to get easier and easier towards the end?
In fact, I was having more trouble with some of the ghosts like the possessors than the end bosses.

Still having problems with the online, and apparently its because for some wanky reason, the online aspect of the game is region locked so Americans can only play against Americans, Europeans against Europeans and Japs against Japs etc.

Only problem with this is, when you try look for games to join, it displays games from all regions with no indication of where they are, and you only find out you cant join the game after it tries to connect.

So basically you have to click on every game until you find one thats in your region.

Fucking stupid idea.
I thought the idea of online gaming was that you can play against anyone in the world.
I understand this is the same with the 360 as well.

It is the perfect game for racists!

I can't play your mom because she's region coded!

I hear King Snarf was region coded in life.
Only problem is his region includes just one person.

That's actually really deep. It belongs in Sikk's blog.

Nicely played.

Glacier agrees.

Yup!

Is "No Mercy" any good? I was excited when I caught news of a new Punisher game but it looks just like a generic budget shooter to me.

Shut the fuck up!

I love you too, Nowie!

Fuck off!
