that's System Shock 1. I haven't played that one myself, but I have played SS2 and it is absolutely worth it. I'm currently playing through Bioshock 2 for the first time and have also got Bioshock Infinite ready to go right after that.

 

there is a consistent feel across all the *Shock games, in the environments, atmosphere and storytelling. right now I feel like they're my all-time favourite franchise, more so than the Half-Life series which has proved to be so intermittent that my loyalty is starting to fade.

 

I didn't even realize that it was the same franchise. Wow.

Hope its good but looks a bit too indie to be very good.

What does that mean?

lol, yeh sry its a shit drunken way of saying that it probably doesnt have a very big team /funds behind it for such a good concept. yes i could be wrong, wtf do i know

Nah I think you might be onto something, haha, I just wasn't sure what you were getting at.

I thought the trailer looked amazing before all the weird zombie cultist shit came in. Invariably every game has to have some brutal violence these days right? It stopped it from being a lush, atmospheric thing and turned it that much more generic. Also yeah, looks visually too good to be true for a little indie team to pull it off properly

WE'LL SEE I GUESS

I hope its good too. it could be something like the AI or the animations that lets it down, or bugs etc. Thats sort of what i was getting at.

Currently at the chapter "Entanglement" in Half-Life 2. Will go into the prison block and defend myself with some turrets. Me and my waifu Alyx just realized that Dr. Mossman had betrayed us.

First time playing HL2?

That chapter's a bitch if I remember correctly. You'll see.

Nah, probably the sixth or seventh time already. The game is so well designed, and is in my top 10 games absolutely.

Computer just crashed because my CPU is overheating (have to apply some new cooling paste.. again).

Well, let's give it another shot

Beat it!

Only died once. Will start playing on the Anticitizen One chapter tomorrow.

yeehaaw

Sounds like some PS4s are shipping dead right out of the box. IGNs review unit even died on them.

flol thats awful

RROD pt. 2

i've read that xbone one runs bf4 at 720p and ps4 at 900p, facepalm next gen.

Plus they're boring shootan games irrespective of resolution.

I'd agree that most generic shooters can be boring, but Battlefield is actually really fun when your whole team is working together + vehicles and all that. That said, I haven't played since BF2 so 3 and 4 may not be as good, donno.

yes. i've been utterly bored by bf4 campaign but bf's multiplayer have always been incredibly fun (i've played bf2 and bf:bc2) so i still consider buying it.

Yeah as I said earlier in the thread, seems they just include singleplayer campaigns in BF nowadays to compete with CoD, but what they do best is multiplayer. There's really no need whatsoever for singleplayer in BF. I'll never forget how much fun me and my friends had with 1942, holy shit. There was nothing else like it at the time.

Playing through Assassin's Creed III right now. It looks amazing, but the controls are so bad that I'm just rushing through the main story to get it over with. I'm far more interested in Desmonde's story than the actual story of the game.

Anyone playing IV? I hope there's been improvement.

No one commented on this the first go round, but it is HILARIOUS so please watch it. (doesn't matter if you are into bf or not)

Heh, he seems to be reallty into his game.. I can't help but feel that these multiplayer first person shooters would be a lot more fun if everyone had the same approach, although with tongue planted firmly in cheek.

voluntary RPG style gameplay has actually gained a lot of popularity with the sandbox style games like minecraft and dayz. I think it is a very interesting.
