Other PC Games Thread.
So with the film and music threads still going and being discussed... why don't we get some discussion going on something on topic to the board? What other games are you playing now?

Skrillex Makes GoW Look ... Unreal? 
Er, riiiiiiiight. Whatever that is supposed to mean.

GoW is probably better than Unreal. I will give it that much. Really - if I had to pick GoW or Unreal I would play GoW. For the gameplay. And the GFX.

For Shambler to listen to:

Wait wait... are we comparing Unreal to GoW or Unreal Tournament to GoW? These things matter. 
He Said Unreal 
So I was referring to ... 'Unreal'. From 97 or whenever it was. 
 
If anything would get Shambler interested, it would be the song that hooked me:

Skrillex - KILL EVERYBODY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F21aifX0lZY 
Yeah - I Hope That Song Was Inspired By GlaDOS 
Because it was the first thing that sprang to mind when I heard it. 
 
Wait what...? I thought Skrillex was a large series of tutorials for using synthesisers. ie not something any person actually listens to, unless they're off their face on ecstasy?

Shiiiit 
 
Every thirty seconds in a given song you can see he found another little knob on his control desk to fiddle with 
Ehhh. 
GOW better gameplay than Unreal?? Have you been smoking dog turd rollies?? GOW hardly had gameplay at all.

As for Skrillex, as someone who has been seriously into dance music for a long time, he is an appalling embarassment to the electric music genre (no his overblown childish screeching is nothing to do with dubstep at all).

Ricky no offence or anything but your taste is in your ass. 
 
Cane in the air, yes? 
 
Yeah, what the hell Shambler. What kind of loser are you? Next you will say that you dont like Lady Gaga, Rebecca Black or Game of Thrones even though EVERYONE DOES! Bet you *hate* Jar-Jar Binks too. Stop having an opinion, seriously.

As for dubstep, IM kick Skrillex ass anytime at that! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0DTHEQgses 
 
He can have an opinion, sure. He just needs to accept that it's about 15 years out of date. :)

And him having an opinion doesn't mean he can't be mocked for said opinion. Especially when it's hilariously wrong. 
So We're Down To "Your Opinion Is Wrong :)"? 
 
Ricky 
Unreal might be from 1998 but it looked magnificent for that time. I think it was the first PC game that genuinely looked good
 
We're down to people are spouting ridiculous crap so they deserve to be trolled.

Oh, and before I forget ... :) 
The Truth 
Any Unreal (except for Unreal 2) > GOW (which isn't as bad as Shamb says, but still).
Music > Skrillex

This is not my opinion, it is the Truth.


You guys should go play some Binding of Isaac Wrath of the Lamb, it's better then all your silly games with'em polygons and such (and its music is awesome). 
Heh 
France : 1 Internet : 0 
 
Binding of Isaac is terrible. There, I said it. 
Willem 
You forgot to smiley. :( 
 
Oh shit ... :) Wouldn't want anyone's impotent rage to settle down or anything. :P 
 
the truth is that people have different taste, popularity is a measure for popularity and willem is holier-than-you :)

now, back to games?

playing deus ex without using multitools, lockpicks or hacking is fun! it would not nearly as much fun if I could not save and reload quickly.

the plasma gun is pretty useless though, I am currently waiting for the next mg to pick up. just visited the universal constructor and I got 4 augmentation containers in water basins in front me. if I dive down I get killed by electrocution. guess i will have to leave them there.

found a couple of new routes already. and the running and jumping augmentation is great fun. 
 
I like how Spirit always blames me in these things. Was I the one who rudely declared GoW was "dire", which was nothing but a pure troll move? No.

Was I then the one to further troll by declaring that "Willem likes Skrillex"? No. Who was that? Oh wait, it was you!

Nice. Back to games indeed.

:P~~~~~ 
 
Anyhoo, if you do have GoW questions nitin I'm happy to answer. Maybe shoot me an email instead of posting here though, if you want to keep the noise ratio down. 
 
now, back to games?

Some 200-odd posts ago I banged the drum for Lone Survivor, and I'll do it again since it very much deserves it.

Watch the trailer, and if it seems like just another zombie game to you, then buy it immediately just to find out how much more there is to it.
The most defining feature aka the soundwork will scare you, then soothe you, and get you pumped for the next round of dark corridors. The soundtrack is very eclectic and not just a bunch of pseudo-NIN droning.

The pixel-plus aesthetic is fantastic, the game looks like a living mosaic, the screenshots don't really do it justice. It's very charming despite (or because) of the 160x120 or whatever the hell low resolution.

And if you don't care about all the other aspects i.e. NPCs, sidequests, keeping your character in good mental shape, then know that there are lots of wretched abominations to deal with... and there's a gun. 
Not Trolling At All. 
Neither was saying Unreal / UTx / Epic engines being brilliant.

Game Of Thrones is great tbh. Sometimes fantasy for the masses (like LOTR films) can be done really well.

Now then. Witcher 2 - watching t'bird play it....is it going to make sense at any point?? 
 
He just needs to accept that it's about 15 years out of date.

Yup all opinions are rendered null and void if they were held by people in the past.

Just so we can be sure about this, at what point in the past do they become invalidated? Is it a year, or a decade, or five minutes? :)
