Honestly, I think saying that all of the bored housewives who spend time playing Farmville & the lot are 'gamers' is like me saying that I'm a doctor because I put bandaids on my kids boo-boos.
"Oh hey Myrtle, do you remember that time in Farmville when I clicked on that button, and harvested those strawberries? That was freakin' sweet!"
"OMG Betsy I know! But it sucked pretty hard when you ran out of coins. It's a good thing Gretchen gifted you that magic cow!"
LOL
I am going to stay far, far, away from the GTA hype train this time around. I don't think I was ever so excited for a game only to be so completely let down once I actually got my hands on GTA IV.
As far as that goes, GTA III & Vice City are really the only GTA games I actually enjoyed. San Andreas might have been fun if it hadn't been so 'ghetto' though.
Good lord. Limp Biskit? in 2011? Whoever unearthed this pile of crap band please look up 'seppuku'.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks the Team Meat guys are crybabies.
Well it's both, d'uh. Right now I'm calling it a fad, although in say 5 - 10 years when technology gets to the point where those retarded glasses aren't necessary, the price of the tech comes down to something palatable for normal humans, and the major TV broadcasters are using it THEN it won't be a fad. But that's the future.
You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding.
Luckily for me I picked up the Gears Triple Pack over the weekend for the ludicrous price of $9.99, brand new!
Why do these Google-translated articles get greenlit? I understand that there is a worldwide gaming community out there, and that someone somewhere can read this untranslated, but really for most of the rest of us these articles are horrible to try and read since they are full of grammatical errors. I usually give up after the first few sentences, which is what I did in this case.
/Grammar Nazi
Other than finally getting tired of New Vegas after 4 complete walkthroughs, the constant delays with the delivery of the DLC is what finally prompted me to send the damn thing back to GameStop. If they had lived up to the original release dates I would likely still have this today.
I hate to break it to you, but things aren't actually going to get progress far until you can make your way to the New Vegas strip - which you won't be able to do until say 1/4 of the way in (around 15 - 20 hours for me I think).
As a handy piece of advice for someone just getting started with it, DO NOT LEAVE THE ROADS! You are going to get your ass handed to you if you try exploring off the beaten path at low levels.
I think they should have added one of Agent York (Deadly Premonition) when he smiles - THAT is scary :)
"Why Dark Souls Will Overshadow Every Other 2011 Release" - yeah, that's not very likely.
Sadly, I got tired of waiting for the new DLC to be released, and sent this back to my local Gamestop last week once I had completed my fourth run through. I wasn't really all that amazed with Dead Money (which I stupidly started during my Hardcore run) or Honest Hearts (ho hum), and expected the same with the new ones - looks like I should have hung on to it a little longer :(
Just wrapped this game up last night. I really liked it, but to be honest I don't think I could suggest it to any of my gaming friends. Not because I think it's bad, but because it's so quirky & rough around the edges. But if you're into it, it's almost like getting your hands on a demo tape of your favorite band - the production is pretty bad, but you can still make out the tunes, and you'll find some random things you won't hear on the album.
I gave up on GTAIV before I finished more than an hour or two of playing it - what a waste of cash. Now Deadly Premonition on the other hand I've sunk about 22 hours into so far. So maybe 1/3 of the title is accurate.
Depends. If you thought Silent Hill was a blast, and want to play a game that's not much more polished than that but has an incredible story, hell yeah. If you're one of those FPS types, not so much.
When my wife watched me play this for the first time she thought I was nuts. When I tried to explain it was a lot like playing Silent Hill again for the very first time, only a little more oddball, she kinda got it. After watching a little longer, she totally gets what this game is all about. Recommended.
Hey Zach, looks like there may be some more friends coming to our party. I wonder if there's enough coffee for everyone?
I didn't have a lot of respect for them when they were playing the sob story card, and I now have a lot less for them after this.
