I would get the splinter cell game, but 5 hours of story isn't enough. What's so stupid about that is that Sam is everything to those games.

What are some good gaming laptops or powerful laptops that can handle gaming? I'm not a desktop person at all so a laptop is a must. Everybody says Alienware, but I went to customize a computer and their shit climbed the price scale fast. I'd like something below $2,000, but maybe the reason why the m15x climbed the price scale so fast is because I don't know what I'm doing and choosing upgrades that are just fine as it is.

Perhaps you could check PC Gamer's website? I know they have rigs listed in their magazines(and have even posted about laptops from time to time) and how they perform with regards to other brands(along with prices and good places for a cheap deal with no reduction in quality). Hopefully that will at least give you a general idea.:)

The website was pretty empty, but the magazine looks decent and something I will probably give a casual read at a bookstore. Thanks for the advice dude.

Me I am liking CoD MW2 can't wait for black ops...Fun to shoot people sometimes O.o is something wrong with me?

nope, nothin wrong at all

Call of Duty
 

I love playing Nazi Zombies on cod world at war. MG42 rocks!

you gettin black ops?

I'm picking up the Collector's Edition of New Vagas(Fallout 3) when it comes out on Tuesday(I'll also be picking up the CE strategy guide).

Even though Fable 2 has not come out for the PC, I have heard that they plan on releasing Fable 3 on the PC in a few months time(perhaps they will release a Fable 2/Fable 3 bundle?). Therefore, due to my optimism in this matter, I am going to pick up the Fable 3 strategy guide on October 26th.

COD x box
 

I play whatever my kids bring over on the weekend. One of these days I'll get my own xbox

New Vegas
 

I am wasting my life from now to completion playing Fallout New Vegas, got it last night and am hooked through my tender and naughty parts.

Since my X-Box died i've been in gamer detox. I could play my PS2 or Wii or older systems but i just don't want to.

My fave games are for my 360 so now i have to save up for the new X-Box slim. *sigh*

Marry me Connie!:cool:

-----------------------------

What system are you playing it on? I own it(and Fallout 3) on the PC.

Fallout: New Vegas is too fresh. Pre-ordered the Gran Turismo 5, gonna be to be sick.

Too fresh? What the heck does that mean?:lol:

thats a WIN!!:respect:

Anybody like the new fallout?

Shadows it's another slang word for saying something is cool. Still trying to get out of the slang mode. lol

I can firmly say that I'm currently enjoying the new fallout since its offers alot more then fallout 3 did as a game.

I'm still playing Gran Turismo 3, and didn't bother with GT4. But I'll treat myself to GT5 when it's released.

Now if only my laptop could smoothly handle the Fallout series. Puny thing... I want to shoot stuff without the screen going all slideshow on me.

I hear the shooting is actually good in New Vegas. Is that true?

Thank you for the explanation, blitzRage.:respect:

hahahaha anytime bro much love.

I usually play flash games on Newgrounds.com. There is alot of promising talent on that site and my favorite game so far is Zombies Took My Daughter!

I'm a FIFAholic, playing FIFA 11 right now on PS3. But I can't wait until Tuesday when GT5 comes out (Finally)!!!!

One of the most memorials, funniest Bosses ever
 

Some years old but still great.

The Great Mighty Poo, from Conker?s Bad Fur Day (N64)/Conker Live and Reloaded (Xbox), is summoning after throwing sweet corn (his tooth) into puddles of shit.
And then the Great Mighty Poo begins to sing:

You defeat it by throwing toilet paper in his mouth and flushing it away. Hilarious!

New Vegas
 

The shooting is pretty sweet in New Vegas, they have the option of Iron Sights, The Vats system, or shooting in third person.

shadow flirt
 

Thank you for the offer Shadow, you make this poor girl blush.

Play Computer games mostly League of Legends. I do have a PS3 Xbox 360 and a Wii. I plan on becoming a Video Game Programmer

I am looking forward to trying out the new features! I finally started playing Fallout 3 a couple of weeks ago(I know, I know, why did I wait so long?;)) and I am HOOKED!

I enjoyed Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion a lot, but I got tired of it after a while(I tried to do all the miscellaneous quests first, as I pretty much abandoned the main quest right after escaping from jail). I may try to finish it sometime, but not for a while.

However, with Fallout 3(even though it has the same engine as Oblivion) I cannot get enough! The ambiance is amazing! I love walking through the post-apocalyptic world and seeing all the interesting locales(and getting into fire-fights with hungry mutants and Raiders). Like Oblivion, I have not gotten very far with the main quest, but I have not gotten tired of the game yet.

I only have it on mid-level settings and it still looks phenominal! I wish I had a super-rig just to see what it looks like with full settings.

Such a good game!:cool:

No problem Connie.:)

with the VGAs here a lot of games had a chance to show case one of which being Prototype 2..


BUT NONE GOT ME MORE FIRED UP THAN MASS EFFECT 3 PEOPLE!!!!!
:respect::respect::respect::cool::cool::yes::yes:

this has been the game i've been waiting for and now since i moved over to PS3 hearing that an ultimate version of mass effect 2 coming to the PS3 with all DLC i'm over the moon

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, motherfucker!

Now if only they would make The Elder Scrolls: Valenwood goddammit! Bosmers for the win.

I haven't heard anything about Elder Scrolls V yet. Perhaps that is why they sent Fallout New Vegas to Obsidian rather than work on it in-house?

Smart money says yes.



Go to gametrailers and search for Skyrim, watch the video and be happy, for you are home at last. Lots of white people in Skyrim.

yes i do
i am a gaming nerd.

pc xbox 360 blah blah blah
right now team fortress and star craft 2

pownin some noobs right now on the puter.

katie

splinter cell
 

nice game but I do not have the time to play
-p-

If I ever tried to play StarCraft 2, I am afraid that I would be one of the "powned noobs".:blush:

Or would you take it easy on poor ol' me?:innocent::lol:

I'd love to get back into gaming but there's just not enough hours in a day for me anymore. :(

Elder Scrolls V - Skyrim looks amazing though.

Black ops
 

They made the zombies too hard on the new Call of Duty.

Regular on Runescape.

I also like many of the old games, Demons to Diamonds being a favorite.

Nice to see you back, rocka. Hope you're doing well.:hug:

I finished Fallout 3 yesterday. I am going to install the 5 DLC's from the GOTY edition and start the game over again. What an awesome game!:respect:

I also downloaded the Unofficial patch for it(it fixes bugs not squashed by the official 1.7 patch) and am looking for a good weather Mod. I want to have rain(like in Oblivion), snow, fog, sandstorms, etc. as that would add a great level of ambience to the game.:cool:

I've decided to get gamefly. It's so much cheaper than buying games. I will probably only buy from devs I like.

Has anybody caught any mass effect news? Since the announcment I haven't seen shit for updates.

The only updates I've gotten recently(I get the newsletters sent to my email account) is about Mass Effect 2 for the Playstation 3. Since I already have it on the PC, it wasn't really much news.;):lol:

It would have been nice if they had released all of the DLC on a bonus disc. I would have picked that up for sure.

I play abitually at chess online and fps like openarena, quake and other fragged titles :)

Gamefly just shipped me Dead Space 2! Can't wait to get it and play it at night!

I really enjoy CoD Black Ops and MW3 is due out in November, but don't you wish the campaign mode would last longer? Online is fun but the campaigns could be brought online also if you used head sets, to use for team missions etc

The short single-player content is the main reason I won't pick up games like Black Ops. I prefer to play the game by myself to be honest. If I am going to pay over $50 for a game, I want to get my money's worth. Four hours of single player content is definitely not getting me my money's worth.

OH,yes. Mostly the games with zombies(left 4 dead,left 4 dead 2) on PC .I've become so addicted to these games.I can't sleep,eat,play with myself.I'm even afraid to go out:no:

I watched a The Old Republic trailer and I got to say the game looks like its straight out of the KOTOR era. The graphics look pretty average and the gameplay looks like its the same from the other games.

Has anybody kept up with the news about the game? I really am hoping I'm wrong and would like to know about the changes to gameplay etc.

i might consider it. my BF doesn't like playing with me anymore as i own his ass every time. maybe i should let him win once or twice to keep him going.

I have no interest in video games, Katie, but I would gladly let you own my ass anytime!

Right now I'm juggling my time between New Super Mario Bros Wii, Angry Birds, Bejeweled 3, Dark Matter, and just finished Limbo (2D will never die!!!). Though usually I'm a pushover for shooters, especially bullet-hell types from developers like Cave and Raizing...when I saw that Death Smiles appeared domestically I went out and bought an XBox 360 right away. :)

Been playing Dead Space 2 on and off for the past two weeks now

Waiting for Marvel vs Capcom 3. Long live 2D.

I need to figure out how to embed a Youtube video. There is an amazing trailer that I want to post!

Hopefully this will work!



This is one of the most emotional trailers I have ever seen. The buzz for it has been off-the-charts and might make the game one of the most anticipated of 2011/2012!

This is a trailer for the video game 'Dead Island'.

I hope you'll like it!:)

Holy crap!!!!

The trailer has my attention, I'm going to have to keep my eye out as more information is released on this. :)

"Holy crap!" good, or "holy crap!" bad?;)

Pretty much every gaming site is talking about the trailer. Mass amounts of word-of-mouth is basically becoming free advertising for them.

I am truly hopeful that the game will at least come close to justifying the hype attached to it. *fingers crossed*:)

The trailer creates a ?great? dauntingly atmosphere.
First person survival, weapons able to assemble and RPG elements in an open world on a holiday island. Developer Techland (Call of Juarez) seams not too bad.
Sounds like it has potential.

How has this thread not turned towards total obsession with The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim yet? Did no one watch the latest trailer?

I would be getting the game regardless of any trailers. I own all the other Elder Scrolls games(except for Bloodmoon) after all.;)

You can double wield! Even spells! This game is the doom of all geeks. And those dragon shouts, goddamn! Although I never made the connection that the dragon shouts were Thu'um.

Hopefully the whole Dragon part is not too similar to what it was in Divinity 2: The Dragon Knight Saga(which was Divinity 2 and the expansion put together).

And you can summon a dragon.

And Bethesda is being coy about whether or not you can combine your double wielded spells in battle.

But, you can summon a dragon!

God, I can't wait until they make a game in Valenwood. Bosmers are my favorite.

I love games
 

I play WoW :))

You also have random fights w/ lesser dragons , they swoop down on villages and your character.

I do think you can combine your spells and increase their damage and effectiveness.

Love the ESoA game - play Oblivion off and on and can't bring myself to remove Daggerfall from my computer. My only problem with Oblivion is I got it for the X-Box 360, so not so many mods :(

Been playing WoW with the bf and his family since I visited them over New Years. 85 Troll feral druid. All this and I still have an active social life :eek:

I'm probably going to slap myself for not knowing this, but what is ESoA?

It is amazing how many Mods there are for Oblivion(and Fallout 3 as well!). In fact, a fan made a patch for Oblivion that allowed me to continue playing the game rather than having to restart the game! There was a bug in Oblivion that cropped up in games that were over 150 hours played. It would slow the game to a crawl, especially in the dungeons. It was basically a game-stopping bug and a fan fixed it! Awesome!:respect:

I have stopped playing Oblivion for over a year now(I plan on finishing it someday), but have been hooked on Fallout 3! I finished it with a "good" character and then immediately restarted the game(this time with the GOTY DLC added), but this time as a "bad" character. Daphne is considered "evil" by the game, but she is not truly an evil person. All she does is steal everything not nailed down(either to sell, or to hoard in Megaton. She has about 60 teddy bears so far!) or succumb to the hunger of cannibalism. Those raiders shouldn't have stolen her food!:eek:

I've never played WoW(nor any other MMO). I just don't have the time to commit to that sort of game(although it looks like it would be fun to play, and I already love the Azeroth mythos playing Warcraft 1, 2, and 3(as well as the expansions).

What I'm playing lately
 

I just finished Darksiders on the XBox 360, and I have to say that this is an under-rated gem of a game. I'm foaming at the mouth for part two (and unfortunately will have to wait until at least 2012 for it to come out). Darksiders draws a lot of inspiration from games like God of War and the tried-and-true goodness that is The Legend of Zelda, and since I'm a fan of both franchises it came as no surprise to me that I totally loved this game. The character designs on War (you play as one of The Four Horsemen, how cool is that in itself?), the angels, and the demons are off the freakin' hook (Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw bagged on War's look, but personally I completely disagreed with him). The level designs, music, and overall atmosphere were masterfully done, and then you even had celebrities like Mark Hamil and Moon Bloodgood doing some of the voice work! The only thing that I didn't like was the fact that this game totally went under the radar for me until a couple weeks ago, but then, that meant I only paid $20 instead of $60 for this great game, so I guess that's not all bad.

On the PC I'm about halfway through Hallowed Legends -Samhain, a particularly challenging Hidden Object Game (but broken in at least one part that I know of), and very recently beat Stray Souls -Dollhouse, an exceptionally beautiful Hidden Object Game that I'd recommend to anybody who's a fan of the genre or not. Hidden Object games, I've found, can be pretty engaging and a lot of fun, and I'm kicking myself for not giving them a chance a lot sooner.

Also on PC I'm never saying die on Dark Matter, a game that can make you it's bitch in seconds flat if you don't play your cards right. I've got all but two missions completed on the campaign mode, even missions that are higher and supposedly harder than the two that are throwing me for such a loop! I don't get it, but at the same time I can't get enough of this sweet remake of good ol' Asteroids. If you haven't played this for yourself you really should, that is if you're into old-school levels of video gaming challenges...it's such an accomplishment and a relief to shoot your way out of an asteroid field all while fighting off an armada that are constantly gunning for you.

Other than that I'm anxious to get started on the Puppet Show series, more Hidden Object Games, when I get done with what I'm currently playing.

Defcon and Natural Selection

if anyone wants to play PM me :)

Crysis 2 is my early GOTY. The campaign was absolutely amazing. I loved switching gun attachments on the fly and choosing between stealth and action gameplay.

I'm loving Crysis 2. Homefront was just okay (not too much into multiplayer these days). Going through a 4th round of Dead Space 2 and enjoying MvC3. Tomorrow I have to download the new Mass Effect 2 DLC. Some XBLA titles that have been getting my attention are Beyond Good and Evil HD and Doom II. Can't wait for the new Mortal Kombat! :)

Morrowind in lieu of Skyrim.

I am the Nerevarine. 'Nuff said.

I'm the Savior of the Wasteland. I think these people can excuse me taking a health pack here and a mag there.

Oblivion IV elder scrolls GOTY edition
(xbox360)
I've been playing it for 3 months as a dark elf mage.
I never took the twin brothers back to Weatherby in the Legacy lost quest
so never finished that quest.
As a result, the brothers follow me round, permanently moaning
"Take us to Weatherby"
They are really good fighters who NEVER DIE just get knocked out from time to time.
Result is I get them to do all the fighting.
I'm happier trading, collecting things, mixing potions
and chatting to NPC's.
I've just started on the expansion pack:
Shimmering isles & Knights of the nine.


Mrs Jodie used to play it on the PC ~~ finished it 5 times!
Seeing the game again prompted her to buy it for her ps3
She has given up on pc gaming as she hates the ongoing need to install patches thing.
With a console you just switch it on and play.

I always find it strange when people talk about using characters other than Bosmer.

I'm a huge elder scrolls and fallout fan.i'm currently addicted to new vegas but am dying to get my hands on skyrim

Has any one played Little Big Planet? It is on the PS3 I am debating on buying it.

I haven't played it(I don't own a PS3), but it looks like it has sold a lot of games. You should check out the Wiki for it, as there is a lot of information on it there. It also looks like the Game Of The Year version is the way to go if you can find it.

If you decide to get it, let me know if it was any good.;)

Also, LBP 2 was released in January of this year.:)

I played it a while back on my cousin's PS3, and honestly I wasn't all that impressed. The graphics and presentation were all top-notch, but the gameplay wasn't all that much fun. :(

If you're looking for some good PS3 titles, I'd recommend the Ratchet & Clank games, or the God of War Collection (God of War III was okay, but it missed the mark compared to the first two, very pretty though)...and if you're into downloading games you simply cannot go wrong with Castle Crashers and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, both of which are old-school 2D brawlers that never get old in my humble opinion. :cool:

I play FPS on steam.. blackops at moment!! :-D

I think Minecraft deserves more transsexual artists playing around.

Pity I can't play it online.

Sammi, have you ever Tea-bagged any of your unfortunate opponents? ;):eek::lol:

Its great to troll your friends in minecraft, lure a creeper near their house, hear them scream and rage on mumble/ventrilo and enjoy.

I'm not nearly that cruel.

But I've never played it online. Do you know any good servers? Ideally ones about surviving, ie hunting, gathering wood, mining stone?

I've been playing Torchlight for over a week now. It is a very addictive game! It was made by a lot of the same people that worked on the Diablo games, and you can see the resemblance. If anyone likes that sort of game, I highly recommend getting it!:cool:

I'm in my retro phase, playing emulators. The Streets of Rage trilogy and Star Trek TNG for Sega Mega Drive (Genesis) are currently on my list. Unfortunately, the Star Trek game sucks ass.

Hi Im playing Torchlight too :) It is mint I love this kind of game

That looks reminiscent of Bauldars gate
for the ps2

Its on the xbox360 so I'll check it out. :)

I got Mortal Kombat on Saturday and have fell in love with it. I hate fighting games, but this game kicks so much ass with all of the content it provides. While Marvel vs Capcom lasted like 2 hours, you could probably put in dozens of hours into this game without needing to go online.

Old school Sonic and the modern Super Meat Boy. 'Nuff said.

Just wait until Diablo III comes out later in the year.;)

The weird thing about this is that the Baldur's Gate series for the PC is nothing like the games from the PS2. The PC games are full-blown RPGs while the PS2 games are, as you said, like Torchlight(as well as Titan Quest and Diablo, two other great games!).

I played Dark Alliance a few times at a friend's house a while back. While they are two totally different animals, both the PC and PS2 games were entertaining. The Dark Alliance games had great graphics to boot!:)

I just started playing the Torchlight free xbox live download
and have started playing that.

It gets me away from Oblivion IV Elder scrolls :yes:

one thing is for sure...
 

today xbox is the best console so no one will tell you otherwise please!!!
