Also played a crap load of Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. Love it!
i’d marry Cliff if I could.
Infinitely. The option is there, but it really isn’t a single-player game.
So I’ve heard . I tried to play online in the few minutes of free time I had left but I had a hard time finding servers with decent ping. Seriously, there aren’t servers for nearly any game around here, except CS which has like 400 servers that ping less than 40 to me (no exaggeration).
Don’t get me wrong, I still play CS occasionally and I still like it, but there’s a limit on how long someone can keep playing a 10 years old game (that they have been playing through all that time), and mine is right under the 1 hour mark .
Having to stand people making new servers for CS instead of awesome new games such as L4D/TF2 is one of the [several] drawbacks of living in a country like mine. That’s why I frequently rely on playing single-player campaigns, despite paying a shitload of money to get a close-to-decent internet connection :fffuuu:.
Awesome.
See if you can find any fellow gamers from your part of the world to get together with where one or more of you has a connection capable of hosting a server for four of you to play a campaign together or some survival mode, then. TBH I quite often play Versus is high-ping servers from fairly distant countries, it’s not as crippling as it would be in other kinds of shooter.
Started playing Penumbra: Black Plague. Damn son. Damn.
I’ve been playing Jak 3 on PS3.
Professor Layton and Pandora’s Box (Released as Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box in the US). Pretty good, I enjoyed playing it, about the same a Curious Village imo.
Played some Oblivion. I was using this mod: https://www.oblivionmodwiki.com/index.php/Ultimate_Archer which gives you a wolf follower.
I was walking from Bruma to Chorrol when I noticed some deer off the side of the road. I pulled out my bow and shot one of them, but the other two got away. I chased them for a long time until the deer were attacked by a bear. My wolf charged the bear and I shot at it, but I hit my wolf instead, killing it with a sneak attack. I pulled out my sword and charged the bear and deer, and soon all lay dead at my feet. I crouched down by my beloved wolf and LOADING PLEASE WAIT…
I haven’t played anything today, but when I get back from class I’ll probably play the “do math practice problems in a stupid book for an hours so you don’t fail your math class” THEN I’ll pick up some TF2.
I played some Hexen 2 today on Steam. I personally think it is the best game that Raven Software ever created.
Finally, finally, got round to finishing GTA IV (on PC). Really enjoyed it.
Your comp could handle it?
That’s the first thing I’m going to play when my i5 comes in. I’ll finally be able to play it at a decent framerate.
Far Cry 2. I’m about 14 hours in, I guess. I’m enjoying it. I wish it were a bit more story-driven and less fucking random, but it’s cool so far.
Yeah, although the view distance was the only handicap, everything else was on high/very high.
I find it funny that you have yet to say “Beatles: Rock Band” in this thread yet.
Anyway, I played the Brutal Legend demo for the 5th time today.
I pre-ordered it, so that when the game tanks in sales but gets high review scores like Psychonauts, and someone starts gushing over how terrible we are for “not trying new IPs” (see: https://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/2-Psychonauts and https://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/203-Braid), ignoring the fact that with the enormous amount of shitty new IPs that get released on a weekly basis, it shouldn’t be a surprise that gamers use established IPs as a saftey net for quality games, and unfortunately Psychonauts got caught in the crossfire, I’ll be able to say “Don’t blame me! I bought it!”
Oh, and the game looks awesome.
Now if you’ll excuse me I need to buy some Master Chief novelty condoms.
Disk 4 of Lost Odyssey. Goddamn, such a long game.
