gamers thread

Same i wouldve actually love to beat that game was so long

 

i wish i could find a copy of the original Grandia

top five

 

counter strike
warcraft 3
stracraft
diablo 1 and diablo 2
dark age of camelot
world of warcraft

after i played world of warcraft i denounced gaming and stopped playing video games. i still do not play any games regulary. instead i have hobbies.

 

Damn how could I forget about the years of FPS

Counter-Strike 1.6
Battlefield 1942 (and all its badass mods)
Soldier of Fortune II Double Helix

there was more but I just cant pin em was a few years back

 

Desert Combat was soooo epic!

 

I see a lot of CS fans, everyone should post their steam ID's up.
steam id : bdmjackle

Desert combat was the shit by the way, if I remember correctly that mod team was actually hired on to help create bf2

 

damn i used to play a e-cafe type deal with a bunch of friends back in middle school ha i will get a steam account soon tho. Team Fortress 2 is pretty badass as well. And yes desert combat was the shit my favorite MMFPS game ever I liked riding around in the desert rat and fckin taking out helicopters while they landed by driving full speed into them

Also did anyone ever play the battlefield pirate mod? you had scimitars and muskeets and invaded each others ships it was intense

 

i have both.
i dont really play them to much anymore.
but i still do on occasion.

I used to be really into gaming but for some reason in the last couple days I suddenly realized how shallow current games are and now I have much less interest in them.

Like Oblivion, for example. I was really looking forward to trying it because I love open endedness and freedom to do anything in games, but then I loaded the game up and it was incredibly dissapointing. Yeah, you could do anything, if anything was included in lame side quests, wandering around randomly in the woods where there's a dungeon or fort every 50 feet, the main story quest which wasn't even that interesting, etc. Nothing you did really mattered in the world, and the NPCs were all so stiff and lifeless.

Games I used to play a lot though (includes most games I've beaten, since I usually get bored with them before the end):
GTA IV
COD 4 (sank like 80 hours into the multiplayer on that)
Zelda series
Half life 1 and 2
prince of persia series

Games I really want to try:

Mount and blade. Medieval setting, RPG style stats, no main story. You can literally do whatever you want - go around sacking villages, become a knight in service to a king and wage war (including sieges) on other castles, just go around profiting as a merchant, whatever.

The ship. It's a game where there's a bunch of people on a Titanic like ship. Each one of them has to kill one of the other's, so you always have someone else trying to kill you. But you have to fulfill certain needs, like eating, drinking, pissing, sleeping, and you can't have a weapon out in front of security or cameras or you go to jail for 30 seconds, and same if you kill the wrong person. Weapons are mostly just makeshift things you can find around the ship. Problem is, it's old, and no one plays online anymore, so it's not worth buying since the SP sucks apparently.

Also Darkfall Online or Mortal Online look really promising, but the WoW style of doing things, with really shallow fetch and kill quests doesn't appeal to me at all. Your actions have to really affect things.

My ideal game would be an MMO where there's no levels or classes, everything is player built, so players have to build cities and towns and stuff, set up an economy and a government, and defend themselves against an encroaching threat from monsters or something like that. So kind of a story, but the details of how it plays out are up to the players. They can work together and win, or go around killing each other for fun and all die.

 

That is a VERY unique idea Diton, I like it

 

Mario RPG on SNES
and Halo of course.

 

I'm also a fan of RPGs... love me some Zelda, Final Fantasy, loved the Baldur's Gate series (Neverwinter Nights, etc.), Pokemon is pretty fun too

I also like simulation games, like Sims 2 or any of the tycoon games. Whoever mentioned Harvest Moon - I love that game too. Lately, I've been playing Curious Village on my DS. All I have time for now are games I can play on the subway, so DS games.

 

oh btw the best series ever created.
Monster Hunter.
i play the hell out of that game on my psp.
i have like 178 hours on it.
and im still not bored of it.
on the ps2 version i had like 150.
then my save got corrupted and the online servers were shut off.

 

gta4: lost and damned (i like bikes, and niko's story was a bit boring)

smash bros... started on 64, i believe that game broke most of our 64 controllers
or was it mario party that did
(melee and brawls are good too)

fallout3
very fun bit time consuming

oh Baldur's Gate was really good
need more co op games like that

jet force gemini
mario kart 64 and wii

64 had a load of great games

 

im a MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role playing game) girl lol

World of Warcraft ftw. >.>

Its my favorite, im inlove with it for the role playing, the communication, and juts the type of life you live in it!!

i own

 

Counter strike, Timesplitters, GTA, Alone in the Dark. I used to play final fantasy waay back in the day, like the first four games I think.

While I got you all here, does anyone remember a game for the NES that had a character named Ryu (i think) where he had a sword, was on a big spaceship and was collecting disks? I loved that game and can't remember what its called.

Also, who remembers Contra?

 

Ninja gaiden, maybe?

 

you get your 360 back yet?

 

ninja gaiden xbox is nothing compared to ninja gaiden nes, ryu really did not keep up with his training regime

 

contra was hard as hell. i think i sold that because i couldn't get very far
