GGT 84 Bought Killzone 3 And Regrets It Like Last Night :(

Yeah, I guess I'm kind of tired of discussing it at this point. I'll just leave it at the fact that I think games could stand to have a larger variety of purposes. Meaning that there should be games all about fun with nothing else, games all about deeper messages and themes with absolutely no ounce of fun in either gameplay or mental entertainment through story or whatever, and every kind of game in between those two end points.

Well, looks like y'all are managing to artsy $$$gy it up without me. Gold star sticker for y'all.

But I would want my Holocaust game to be fun. See: the joys of exploring a hostile and vaguely-to-explicitly threatening environment in The Dig, Half-Life 2, etc.

I actually imagined it being from the perspective of a victim of a concentration camp or something.
 
It could be an alternate history setting and make it like riddick where you escape from the camp. But that would really just be abusing the setting and history.


Played the PC Dragon Age 2 demo. Having never played the original, I though it was okay. The constant loading was obnoxious though.
 
I'm trying very hard not to judge DA2 based on its demo. I think - and I very much want to think - that it simply put the wrong foot forward on that one.

To my knowledge, the only game that ever really dealt with the Holocaust is I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, in which one of the playable characters was a doctor in a concentration camp.

And not, like, the kind of doctor that makes sure all the guards are healthy.

The other kind of doctor.

Now on the subject of fun vs. not fun, I will say that yes, some games aren't fun to play exactly, but are engrossing or however you want to say it. Nobody really likes the gameplay in Silent Hill games, for example, but they want to see WTF happens in it. It's like books. They aren't necessarily fun to read, but it's something to occupy your thoughts and help pass the time rather than staring at a blank wall.

Just my opinion though, I wish they made Silent Hill that played like Devil May Cry. That'd be the shit. :bouncy:

If you want to play later I'd be up for it.

Yeah, I've heard of the game. Never played it though.
 
Hooray for faster loading times in MvC3. Thank you patch.

Also, completed Chun-Li's missions. 9/10 on Dante... his last combo looks aggravating though. Trying to finish up Hulk's next.
 
[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Hulk's are really easy[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that's what I thought, but I'm having serious trouble with 9.
I've realized that you have to delay the cr.H > s after air.H > air.s until the target is almost hitting the ground again otherwise he launches too high for hulk to jump to and you miss the air.M > air.M > air.H > air.S.

That's when I hit trouble. I'm not sure how fast to call the p1 (IM smart bombs) assist. I've gotten it to bounce up and hit the next stemp (gamma charge.H) but even if I immediately cancel into gamma crush, the up hit misses and the combo drops before gamma crush completes.

Hmm, just ran through it again to see what you were talking about and did it on my first try. Just call in the smart bombs as soon as your feet hit the ground, start up the gamma charge as soon as you see the fire effect, and cancel that into the gamma crush whenever.

I didn't delay any of the attacks.

When in doubt, mash it out.
not really

I definitely notice that if you cancel the air.s into the cr.H as fast as possible that Wesker is too high to get MMHS on when you jump cancel out of the launcher.

Maybe part of it is I'm calling in IM too early? I hit the p1 right before my feet touch the ground to make sure it OTGs, then immediately qcf.H, gamma crush... but the up part of the gamma crush misses. Strangely enough, when I watch a video of it, it seems like Hulk is too close to Wesker when I land -- do you jump cancel up or up forward?

I wasn't able to replicate this problem, so color me confused. I was jumping straight up.

I'd video it if I could... I'll have to try again later jumping up instead of up-forward.

Invizimals saved Joel's marriage.

I know you did seanr, that's why you're a bro and I'm not gonna make fun of you anymore.

If I get another I won't try to make the next GGT.

I will make a new GGT at 450 posts if you even attempt to make a new GGT.
 
[quote name='Amblix']Hm, I can't pick between Noel Vermilion or A-11 as my main character. :([/QUOTE]

Do you prefer rush down or do you like to zone?

The only thing you made was a mess of your hopefully short life. You're an insult rookie.

Well I found Noel more enjoyable to play, but A-11 is fucking beast, 3 out of 8 matches I had were flawless (no damage taken) she has beastly range, but is kind of boring.

I'm not so into fighters, Blaze is the first one I've ever been into.

Rush JSP to the hospital, that dude's got 4th degree burns.
 
I finished Brutal Legend Thursday night. The game could have been SO much more.
Seems to be no one playing multiplayer though. Not that I'm that interested.

Should I just assume that if the game came out over a year ago, the community is dead?

Yes. Unless you're playing Calladuty, Halo, Counterstrike, Starcraft, or Team Fortress 2 PC.

There are maybe like 3 game series that have online communities past the first six months. So yeah, that assumption should work.
