What Game Did You Play Today?

I just finished an AOE II HD match lasting 06:10:46 against my friend. Apparently choosing Nomad as map type generate way too much resources. We had 5 bots against us, two which resigned before building Town centers because my friend used his villagers to destroy them. The third on was soon too follow when I sent an army of 5 militias and destroyed their town center.

The two other grew strong and and kept fighting my friend while I built armies, then one of them decided to attack my walls and soon his city was nothing but rubble. Last one was soon to follow.
Then I and my friend kept fighting each other for 3 more hours, he finally got me though. Couldn’t find the way to defeat chinese with mayan.

Why did you shade that haha

I’ve been playing fallout 3, now that I have the add-on’s. Out of curiousty, does anyone know if the FO3 with the add-on’s included on the 360 have some sort of graphics update as well? It looks like it does.

#2463

Just got “The Typing of the Dead: Overkill” on Steam. This is fuckin’ great.

Well, except for the fact that I can’t play co-op. It won’t let my friend and I load into a chapter. Keeps thinking we haven’t readied up when we have. Weird.

#2464

Brutal Doom, so much Brutal Doom.

Also, when the violence becomes too much, I found my old-as-aw-hell-naw copy of Nerf Arena Blast. It’s surprisingly not-terrible!

#2465

Call of Juarez Gunslinger is incredible. Not the boss fights though, they can go fuck themselves.

#2466

XCOM: Enemy Within.

Found EXALT’s main base. Haven’t raided it yet because I need the Officer school to get six quad members and for my best men to heal up from the last mission.

The French were hiding them. Go figure.

#2467

Oh I’m sure the French fought them. Initially. But then they had to rely on their stockpiles of white bed sheets, unfortunately.

#2468

I am GOING to beat Risk of Rain with the commando. Even though he’s a shit, underpowered character.

#2469

Rollercoaster Tycoon! So many memories here.

I tried building a wooden rollercoaster. It looked really boring and slow, but when I checked the stats it was a 14.47 - “ultra-extreme” - in intensity.

#2470

Whatever this is.

#2471

Could you take a screenshot of it? I could help you knock down that rating to make it better. I’ve played a rather unhealthy amount of that game over my lifetime, so let me know if you’d like a coaster consultation. :3

Also, take a screen of the overall ratings on test- intensity, excitement, nausea, g forces, highest drop height, etc.

#2472

Actually, I already made it better - with some gentler slopes and brakes, I brought the intensity down to about 6.2, which I think is close to ideal. It did really well with the guests after that.

#2473

Just had a 15 - 0 win in World of Tanks

Sounds pretty good! Don’t forget to put trees, fountains, and other rides near the coaster to bump up the excitement points a bit. Works wonders.

EDIT: Playing more XCOM: Enemy Unknown. I just got my second MEC trooper leveled to Corporal. The game decided to name her “Number Six.” Guess one of the developers is a Battlestar fan…

#2475

i started mgs rising + its sick but omg the music is so bad

#2476

Finally started playing MGR. It’s pretty cool, controls well enough with kb+m except for the horrible negative mouse acceleration (and the camera automatically centering if you leave it alone and while moving despite there being a key specifically for that). Also I absolutely hate how 99% of the cutscenes are prerendered. Especially since it’s technically a MGS game, which have never had prerendered cutscenes.

#2477

Played a bit of Tomb Raider.

It’s…okay I guess thus far. Not a fan of her accent, but that’s ignorable.

#2478

You don’t like the British voice actress’ British accent?

#2479

I didn’t enjoy it either. I did like the game after the first half hour though.

#2480

Oh lord, that’s an actual british person doing it?

It sounds like a british person imitiating an american who is doing a british accent (if that makes sense).
