My brother just gifted me Borderlands during yesterday’s deals :3, and I’ve been playing it today after it finished downloading. Man this game is awesome… I played 3 hours straight and I didn’t even notice it.
We’ll try some co-op tomorrow, should be even better 
.
Crysis.
It is so fun to smash enemies to oblivion with MAXIMUM STRENGTH.
I played Oblivion, Rainbow Six Vegas, Goldeneye, and MW2.
Borderlands.
Better than I remembered, but still average. The humour made me laugh quite a bit.
Yea, borderlands kept me entertained for a few months until it got way too repetitive. Oh and the story/ending sucks balls.
IIRC the sniper rifles are all fucked up too. The target hears and responds to every shot before the bullet reaches him. :facepalm:
Missions are the right size and you have a sort-of-lives system, so it’s only frustrating if it’s too hard.
BC2. F2000 is my baby! Was called a useless faggot for using it, though.
Didn’t gaming move beyond the stupid life system everywhere but Nintendo years back? Any game with it needs to be burned at the stake.
I finished Riot Act today. Put off playing it for a loooooooong time because I never really liked the Nova Prospekt levels in Half-Life 2. It was pretty fun.

So, tried playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. on my laptop with the touch pad and safe to say it didn’t work out so well. Should be getting a mouse in the next few days, though. The one I’m looking at is this one, anyone know if it’s any good? And has anyone here tried out the Novint Falcon? Is it cool?
From what I’ve heard, the Novint falcon is indeed awesome, just keep in mind by default it’s only “integrated” into certain games (though I think others you can treat it like a mouse and it’s all right)
I wish I could comment on the mouse; it’s difficult to know how comfortable it will be until you try it.
Yeah, I don’t really care about the integration with recoil and stuff with the Falcon. I’d probably just end up turning it off anyway.
ITT: Conclusions are jumped to and games that have not been played are criticised.
What are these obsolete checkpoints you keep mentioning? Those things in old arcade racing games? You know, these healthpoints in so many games serve the same purpose of a life-inventory, allowing players to fuckup without losing.
Quicksaving is also getting old. Respawning without the old weapons and powerups of one’s previous life is starting to age, too. The next step, logically, is players seizing control of adjacent friendly NPCs when they die.
The ultimate unquestionable alternative is saveless, checkless, spawnless full-playthrough one-life mortality.
Tiki, you just defended my point.
I… I gotta go, there’s… Something in my eye.
[COLOR=‘Black’]It’s emotion.
Only a health bar is different because you don’t restart from 10 minutes back (or if what I hear about Lost Planet 2 is correct half an hour back) everytime you get hurt , only when your health bar runs out, when this happens, you load your last save game (which should be saveable anywhere, checkpoints are worthless as well,) and go on your way. Games can be hard like this.
Also, why is your ending statement basically criticizing the opposite of what I talk about? its really poor arguing.
Played STALKER today with the mod Lurk but hated it. There were way too many bandits pretty much everywhere. It was impossible to play. Changed to Complete 2009 (against some people on here hating it for some reason) and it’s much better. I couldn’t find the other mods people kept talking about, though.
Also tried to play TF2 but the main menu is garbage so I quit.
How is the main menu garbage? You press the Join Game button, select a server, and play.
I don’t understand why they changed it, though. Originally they had pictures of the level they were playing on when selecting a server along with what type of game they were playing. All that’s gone now. Plus that annoying bar at the top of the screen that serves no purpose whatsoever.
