Fallout 3 > Oblivion for me also.

That was probably the most annoying part Jsp. You have to follow the rebel without being seen through 4-5 areas. Very annoying.
 
WTF.

*head explodes*

I want Valkryia but have no money.

So should I be able to finish MGS4 before Christmas, playing it like an hour or so a day at least?
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']Near the beginning of Act 3. IDK, all of
the end of Act 2 was just "run three feet. Cutscene. Now ride on the back of Drebin's vehicle. Cutscene. Ride. Cutscene. Ride. Oh shit, Raiden. Oh shit, roboty hoppy things everywhere, cool, let's fight--except, no, just run three feet and cutscene.

Then the seemingly unending Mission Briefing, ecspecially Naomi talking to Sunny forever. And then Otacon. Forever.

Raiden is badass though.

And now...
WTF is this trenchcoat-wearing walking-around-a-city stuff? I don't even know what I'm doing because I hit start to pause the codec convo, not realizing it would skip it instead.

well, you could quit now that you've played acts 1 and 2. It ceases to be Metal Gear after that and I mean that almost literally. there's about one more shorter stealth sequence at the beginning of act 4. If you've played MGS1, it is worth enduring act 3 for the part though.
 
[quote name='zewone']Wow, Valkryia Chronicles only sold 33k copies?

When's that going to hit the $20 bin? I want it.[/quote]


If you ever see it around that price, let me know.

Much like Persona, I suck at it but I love the visual style.

Yeah, I plan to finish it. I finished the other three, so fuck it.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']american games are good. european games are good. japanese games are good.

in the end dev territory is slowly becoming less of an issue IMHO.[/QUOTE]

I dunno... I feel like it's more like:

American devs are good, European developers like glitches, and Japanese developers just don't fucking get it.

It was the opposite last gen, though.

You guys are getting ahead of yourselves. :)

BTW, you are all invited to the wedding. ;)

That's some weak sales. I want it too.

I can see it sitting on the Target endcap for sure.
 
I'm kinda hoping the Olevia I was going to move into our spare room craps out--gives me an excuse to get that $800 40" 1080p series 5 samsung from Sears. >_<

Gaming room x2 = :whee:
 
Was there a level cap in Oblivion?
I know F3 got real old reaaaaally fast after I hit 20. 95% of enemies weren't shit, I had ammo out the wazoo, and with that grim reaper perk? Please. It wasn't even that it wasn't challenging, but it was like "now I have to kill all these fuckers and I get absolutely NOTHING for it.".
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']Was there a level cap in Oblivion?
[/QUOTE]
There is. Going up levels is tied in to your major and minor skills. So when they are all 100, you won't go up levels.

I'm like level 45 currently. Haven't played in months, so I don't remember my stats.

I don't remember the highest level.
 
I'm thinking about making a general iPod app gaming thread. If I did so, how should I structure it? Should I update the OP with new releases and such?

Jump off your roof.

Title it "General iPod Gaming Thread : General Discussion and Info." And definitely put a list of games in the OP with links to each game on apple.com, and keep it up to date.

Also, when a new hot game is coming out or is out, put it in caps in the title.

Example "General iPod Gaming Thread : General Discussion and Info UNO OUT NOW!!!!"

This makes a lot of sense as to why I stopped leveling -- I had just about everything I could managed at 100, I think -- I liked how I could practice the skills and have them go up... sneaking, summoning, magic. I missed that in fallout 3.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']You'll hit a point where you can do just that in fallout 3... but you stop gaining exp at level 20.[/quote]

which is where mods come in :D

I'll be playing the PC version, so I can has mods. I'm looking at console commands for it, and there's a bunch of fun stuff you can do in the PC version. I'll play it for real first, then I'm having some fun.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']If you're playing on the PC, sure thing. 360, not so much. :\[/QUOTE]

They're raising the cap soon.
 
Okay, Persona 4 time, finally. Sure, I'll have all the speakers blasting from the left of where I'm sitting, which will get annoying (I'm playing on the monitor, which is why this will happen), but I gotta play this damn game and see if it's really that good.
 
[quote name='zewone']They're raising the cap soon.[/QUOTE]

Wasn't that supposed to be part of the third DLC offering? I wonder if you use a brand new character for the Alaska stuff and Pitt stuff... :?
 
I want to try to get things from Oblivion into Fallout 3. Horses and horse armor in Fallout 3 would be godlike. :)

I've messed with the Oblivion mod editor, so if they are similar, I'll try it.
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']I want to try to get things from Oblivion into Fallout 3. Horses and horse armor in Fallout 3 would be godlike. :)[/QUOTE]

Mutated horses FTW! That would be sweet. Hell I've even settle for dogmeat armor!
 
Well so far, Persona 4 is neato. I like the setting. The rural-ness of it just makes it feel darker and more desolate, and that's what I wanted. I also dig that you can hear the rain outside of the house.

Only heard one of the songs so far, but it was good. I felt like P3 was something of a step backwards for the composer, so this seems to be a return to form. Shoji Meguro is awesome.
 
New Age of Empires for DS is fun. Just like the old one. That's okay though. I liked that one a lot too.

No luck finding a used Last Remnant today. $50 spent at hollywood video into $140 at gamestop (Hopefully to become $200 in Visa vanillas at blockbuster) is nothing to complain about, though.

I always thought horses made sense in the fallout world.. it has that wild west vibe already, so people riding horses around isn't that out of place..
 
[quote name='MarkMan']White Knight Story/Chronicles got some sub par scores in Famitsu too...

PS3 fanboys am cry *you know who I'm looking at*[/QUOTE]

didnt Valkyria Chronicles did also? and i loved it (and want it XD). I'll get WKC
 
PS3 fanboys should be used to crying by now.. lol.

God that system is such a disaster. It's one thing after another. Home is just the latest fuckup.

Also if you can't even get decent scores in famitsu... SCEJ didn't pay enough?

Force Unleashed is a below average game. I have had decent fun with it, but it should be called "the force unpolished"
 
[quote name='refusedchaos']didnt Valkyria Chronicles did also? and i loved it (and want it XD). I'll get WKC[/quote]

No, that actually got good scores from Famitsu....

Valkyria Chronicles: 8/9/9/8

And that was a Sega game with a smaller budget... WKS/C is a big budget game backed by Sony.

So yea... uhhhhhhhhh

I'll still get it.

But lol.
