Question to Mikael about gaming - Page 3

Tubbs · September 20th, 2007, 03:13 PM

I used to be a huge gamer, then I started getting into music a lot more. Now I just play the UT and Half-Life series along with Diablo 2 and classic emulator games for the N64 and SNES (along with Castlevania: SOTN). I'm really anticipating HL2: Ep2, but moreso Portal since it seems like something different for a change.

Risquit · September 20th, 2007, 04:04 PM

Bioshock's predecessor, System Shock 2, was one of the scariest experiences ever.

Sheckles14 · September 20th, 2007, 04:21 PM

My bad, got us off topic...

HoursOfDebt · September 20th, 2007, 04:43 PM

fallout 3 is set to come out soon. cant wait for that one.

opeth8 · September 20th, 2007, 04:57 PM

The Wii is pretty cool. Graphics aren't in the same universe as the PS3, but using the remote is fun. Went to the chiropractor after playing Spiderman. There are way to many combinations, but still fun. I'm getting too old for that system.

Bought a PS3 last week !!! Madden & the Bigs are my only games so far. Haven't bought any RPG's yet. I'm waiting for God of War 3 which may take awhile ??

Yep, well, about this time next year. The game I'm looking forward to the most now is Assassin's Creed.

PowerBob · September 20th, 2007, 06:16 PM

From what Ive played of Bioshock, that game was amazing. I cant wait for Guitar Hero 3 and Rockband, that will provide hours of entertainment and hours of sleep depravity.

And has anyone here played The Darkness. That game was pretty damn awesome in its own right as well, plus it has Mike Patton in it!

Mr. Bland · September 20th, 2007, 08:01 PM

What about Spore!?!

antipunx13 · September 20th, 2007, 11:58 PM

Spore looks pretty interesting...I'm interested in seeing how they attempt to pull off such a huge concept.

Pavelent · September 21st, 2007, 01:40 AM

I agree with Mike..Bioshock is pretty amazing.

um yeah, considering that god of war 2 is so fresh. may be a couple years, why not just buy elder scrolls IV for ps3? nearly 200+ hours of gameplay with the added expansion packs.

haha. win.

anyone else picked up Eternal Sonata? Such a fun game. If you've never heard of it, its basically a world inside Chopin's dream as he's on his death bed. Theres a ton of his music (played by someone, i forgot the name though) and its just a great game.

** OH yeah, SKATE is fucking awesome!

Katatonic89 · September 22nd, 2007, 01:07 PM

Omg Mikael owns a 360!!!!*running to the store to get one*

biggsy · September 22nd, 2007, 10:36 PM

im way into sports games. ricky ponting cricket 2007, nba, nfl, fifa etc.

Alcapoth · September 25th, 2007, 04:26 PM

Everybody KNOWS PS2's two best games are Final Fantasy X and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

Now, get READY for MGS4 -

I personally think it'll be the gaming event of 2008.

CorpseDeception · September 25th, 2007, 06:56 PM

I like shooting arrows at villagers in Fable. The guards aren't as much fun, though.

Towedwart · September 25th, 2007, 07:14 PM

There are so many games to be excited about that just came out and that are coming out soon: Bioshock, Halo 3, Assassin's Creed, World at Conflict, Rock band, Spore. This is a good generation of gaming.

Shemsu'Hor · September 25th, 2007, 09:56 PM

Assassin's Creed is going to be FUCKING AWESOME

Alteredmindeath · September 25th, 2007, 11:28 PM

future 360 Games Im looking to get for now...

Silent Hill 5
Resident Evil 5 (one of my favorite franchises, along with the spooky Silent Hill series)
Ninja Gaiden 2 (I can murder the first one on P3)
Fable 2 (Maybe)
Mass Effect (Sci Fi Rpg)
Rise of the Argonauts
Age of Conan
Halo 3 (I never liked Halo that much, and always thought it was highly overated)
Gear of War 2 (1st game blew me away)
Street Fighter 4 (I have heard rumors)
Grand theft auto

bribri234 · September 26th, 2007, 12:14 AM

Metal Gear 4 should be cool for 360.

I think God of War is easily the best P2 game, after all its the P2 at maximum capabilities.

I did enjoy FF10 more than FF12, I got bored quickly with FF12 and traded it.

Sheckles14 · September 26th, 2007, 06:43 AM

Right now, I'm just waiting for Fable 2 and Alan Wake. Halo3's campaign was slightly disappointing. But with so many new maps, the ability to download new maps, online coop, and so many other things, this game's replay value is immense.

Shemsu'Hor · September 26th, 2007, 07:25 AM

Halo is definitely the most overrated franchise. It's not bad but it's not great either, it's the game non-gamers play so they can feel like gamers.

I kinda liked the story of FF X better than FF XII's but I liked 12's setting better, and that combat system is sweet once you get the hang of it. Not to mention that rabbit chick is hot
