Chac, I'm with you. I like the game less and less the more I play the demo. I've played through it three times and I'm just not digging it.

Again, how come we still have big red exploding barrels in FPS?

It brings out the color of the base/boat/plane/city/house/hotel/street/alleys/dirt/water/whatever.

And I just said this in the Killzone thread but I'll repeat it here. Why the hell would anyone leave huge barrels right next to turrets or strewn all over a warehouse. 99.9% of companies would at least put flammable or biohazardous materials in a safe room instead of just any old place.

Is it fun to shoot the barrels and make them explode right next to bad guys? Sure. But haven't we been using them for a decade now?

EDIT -- E4 plays you Preston. Just give in.

Now we can do it with teh amazing next-gen effects! The red barrel will never disappear as long as we can add more effects to the explosion or even show damaged barrel pieces in some cases!

Since the aiming reticule takes 10 minutes to get to an enemy due to awful control lag, it's easier to shoot a barrel to set off a chain reaction to kill an enemy.

Turn up the sensitivity, if you did, then I have no idea what you're talking about. I was popping helmets and heads like no tomorrow.

yea, i had no problems with the controls....but your just a box
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']How the fuck do you play E4????[/quote]
Go to the options and change the shooting control to the right stick. If that wasn't the answer that you were looking for, then it plays like a mixing of Geo Wars and REZ.

I just a what bitch?

Oh well, who cares, we can enjoy it and they won't. Everybody wins, except me cause I won't be playing it. SFIV will be out before then.

I won't be playing SF4. I'll be doing something more enjoyable. Like staring at the wall.

yeah but keep in mind... it's REZ with suicide

IDK what's going on! I turned on the trial and shit is everywhere and one of the buttons creates an explosion and my controller is vibrating so hard it gave your mother an orgasm.
 
It's a demo for a reason people. 10 min of gameplay is not enough time to get use to the controls. I like the weight.

@Jesus: to confuse you more the rumble is an important part of having skills with the game.

I don't want no cake, I want me some pie, you understand what I'm sayin'?

[quote name='whoknows']If it'll please you then there's no way I'll do it.

I'll videotape it and NOT upload it to teach you a lesson.[/quote]

It won't please me, uploading it would teach me a major lesson about ... how to bash your skull against a wall properly.

Not to mention, you'll enjoy it more than SFIV, right? So get to it.

[quote name='Chacrana']I didn't try the knife, but I tried probably all of the other weapons. What you should be getting from shooting an enemy is the sensation that you're really fuckin' that dude up. Like, you want the bullet to just rip through them, or to at least make them recoil. I'm not saying it has to be ultraviolent, but it's gotta give you a bit more of a feeling of being a badass.

The knife does sound interesting, and I appreciate the game's attempts to throw in some smaller details that do add to the experience, but I just feel like the core mechanics are pretty ghetto.[/QUOTE]

Nah you're just biased. KZ2 is everyone's favorite FPS. If you don't think so you're wrong.

Reading SRK's chun and strategy thread makes my head hurt.

Ouch.

He played it.
 
I ordered lost and damned on amazon with the free 3 mos of live. Guess I better finish the actual game soon.

seemed like the best deal that would be found for the game, basically $10 each for LnD and 3mos live.
 
[quote name='distgfx']EDIT: Who the hell would prefer using the R2 button on the PS3 controllers for shooters? The triggers are god awful.[/QUOTE]

Not with the pro trigger attachments. They curve out from the controller to make them way more comfortable to use them. I actually prefer the R2 button for shooting now, when the option is available.
 
[quote name='whoknows']So bashing games one hasn't played isn't ok?[/QUOTE]

Using the information available to one to render a judgement - okay.

I have no means of playing KZ2, most people know that and take my opinion with that context in mind.

Others just get upset like babies.
 
[quote name='refusedchaos']no sir[/quote]

Well let me break it down, you know when you're in the shower with some fine, foxy hoochie momma and she got dat-...

Funny you should mention that, I just ordered them from amazon a day or two ago since I've heard such good things about them.

[quote name='whoknows']So bashing games one hasn't played isn't ok?[/quote]

*stares at food* This is horrible.

Does that make sense?
 
[quote name='whoknows']Dead Rising sucked.[/quote]
The only thong about Dead Rising that sucked was the time limit... and not having any co-op.
 
Save system sucked. Mission structure sucked (Have the devs ever heard of the fabled retry option?), health system sucked.

I don't know...other than that, it just wasn't as fun as a game like that should have been. I'll never forget the day that and Gears came in the mail. I was so excited I skipped class to play. I should have gone to class.
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']God GGT is so angry lately.

Focus on the positives guys[/QUOTE]

Street Fighter IV!!

Audiosurf is sweet. I can't believe it took me this long to try it. It's so damn hypnotic. Plus it has the best soundtrack ever. ;)

After SFIV, I'm getting RE5, then I'm getting games I've missed, like Castlevania OoE, Valkyria Chronicles (snagging this soon, before it disappears), and Chrono Trigger DS.
 
[quote name='Chibi_Kaji']The only thong about Dead Rising that sucked was the time limit... and not having any co-op.[/QUOTE]

I think the game would have been more fun if you could control it.

That fucking clown was just there as a reminder that the game was nigh-unplayable when anything fast was happening.

This weekend... hmm.... I played Beatmania and some 3s, oddly enough. Game feels sooooo different from Remix.
 
I'm going to order the laser replacement part for my ps3 this week. I'm having Fallout withdraws. Plus my income tax will be here this week. I'll save about 1/2 of the cost doing it myself and my system will stay here with me where it belongs.

Also, I picked up MGS:TTS for $12(local shop) and the orange box for PS3 for 9.99(Meijer).
 
[quote name='Chacrana']...and some 3s, oddly enough. Game feels sooooo different from Remix.[/quote]

...in a good way or a bad way?
 
In a different way. It's a completely different game and what you know from Remix doesn't necessarily transfer over to 3S. Personally, I do like 3S better.
 
I feel the same chac. I haven't been playing for nearly as long as everyone else, but I have SOOO much more fun playing 3s than I do Remix. It feels so much more deep, and I love the animations and art style.
