Yeah, I meant that my MOII game is a on a CD, so I can't play it on the laptop.

 

[Jaboldinho]

Anybody playing Diablo III? **** not going too smoothly.

 

[Ebonix]

I heard that servers have been dropping out? Also people are saying the game isn't quite all it should be?

 

[Filipower]

Apparently it takes like 2 minutes to finish it.

 

[Mandieta6]

Finished Uncharted, as well as Infamous and 1 go of Heavy Rain. All good, but I was kinda disappointed with Uncharted, was expecting the story to go differently, and overall was just expecting more from the game.

Infamous is pretty awesome, it's geniunely fun to go from place to place, which is a nice feat for such a game.

Heavy Rain is brilliant and I want more games like that to be made.

Heavy Rain is up there for best game concept ever made. I normally don't bother with playing a game once I beat it, but I played and beat that game three different times, and got three completely different endings. Epic game.


Bought LA Noire for about 20 bucks and I'm about halfway through it. At first it was fun, and it's cool to drive around the 40s LA, but **** the missions are repetitive. Chase this guy on foot, chase other guy on a car, interrogate this other guy. Conspiracy here, conspiracy there. Meh. I thought it'd be a lot better.

 

[Mandieta6]

Yeah, think I'll give HR another go soon, loved that game.

Loved the LA Noire concept, but I played a bit of it and haven't gone back yet, hasn't hooked me in. Shame, really liked the idea.

My friend was total Diablo 1 and 2 addict, he got #3 and was very disappointed. And as Fili said apparently is so short. Some Korean guy passed it for like 7 hours. I played it a bit, it's good, fun game, but I'm not fan of it and will probably not get it.

I still didn't finished Sniper Elite V2, I stuck at some Flak Tower. You simply have to plan every attack, observe and shot with the sound of artillery and aviation.

I also heard that Company of Heroes 2 is revealed, this time on Eastern Front, coming next year. I'm big fan of CoH.

 

[Jaboldinho]

7 hours for the easiest level. And that's with rushing. I'm close to finishing it on Normal, and I've played maybe 15hours. And even I haven't walked through the whole maps. Plus the harder difficulties are supposedly really challenging. I didn't really have too high expectations, so I guess it's possible some hardcore fans are disappointed, but I'm enjoying it.

 

[Waldo1639]

Released today for Xbox 360 and PS3, and June 15. for PC. Finally...!

Also, May Payne 3 is coming on PC on May 29.

 

[Ebonix]

Finished Fallout New Vegas fully yesterday. Despite the crap programming, the constant crashing and the glitches, it was actually fun. Not quite Fallout 3 but still

MGS3, best game ever

 

[Waldo1639]

Chasing and sniping The End is one of the best boss fights ever. By the way, did you know that you can kill him much earlier in the game, so when you come in Sokrovenno forest there are just few soldiers?

 

[Ebonix]

I finished MGS2 & 3 a couple of weeks ago in the Metal Gear Solid HD collection on 360. Fantastic to see the games remade to a half decent standard. The End is definetely one of my favourite bad guys ever. One of the achievements is killing The End earlier in the game.

 

[Back Door Skip]

I'm currently playing Max Payne 3, and I'm about halfway.


I made the mistake of playing it on hard and free aim, and it's ******* ridiculous. Some parts are actually too hard, and they just keep throwing you on near impossible situations over and over. This is like the best target practice game for FPS fans because it's quite challenging.

At times it becomes tiresome how hard it is, though. You got five dudes shooting at you, you shoot this dude... you got him. Blood splattered everywhere. He's dead, right? Wrong.

You proceed to kill the others... you move, and you realize you're still being shot at then you die. ******* aggravating.

Haven't touched Skyrim in ages, but this might change my mind.

 

[Mandieta6]

Is that the free patch I've heard about it? Been wanting to buy Skyrim and I gots the money to do it soon, might wait for the patch to come out though.

 

[Ebonix]

I think I seriously just pissed myself with excitement.

 

[4ndr3i]

Is that the free patch I've heard about it? Been wanting to buy Skyrim and I gots the money to do it soon, might wait for the patch to come out though.

I seriously doubt it's gonna be free.

 

[Mandieta6]

I read about a patch that gives the users the ability to ride on horses, which would be free, is this not it?
