The Video Game thread

I Just picked up the Shadowrun remake, I was into the original along with Fallout 1, 2 and Arcanum back then. I think it's pretty good so far if your into above screen RPGs with good story.

[rfurtkamp]

The actual RPG never did much for me back in the day but it looks alright.

I still have a few retro RPGs I didn't play a few years back that I've been meaning to that will eat weeks (NWN2 etc)

They're adding multiplayer into Don't Starve, so I'm pretty stoked on that.

[Achtane]

Kinda feels like I'm missing out on some good games, but I can't stand the isometric viewpoint.
Except for in, like, Final Fantasy Tactics. But even then I'm often fighting the camera.

Ruby and Sapphire are getting remade for 3DS.
It's too bad they aren't as good as Gold and Silver, or HG/SS.
I don't know why every game hasn't followed the "play the game, beat the elite four, explore a completely new region" route.
I spent a good bit of time earlier this year playing Crystal, and it was great.

Not sure how active I'll be in multiplayer (because I suck at everything online) but my Steam is mrheavenly...let's get some multiplayer Don't Starve going (if you're on Steam....)!!!!

Unbearable cuteness ahead

I can't even handle it

"Yup there's a mooonnsterrrrr!"

Man, this is awesome.
"Muddy puddles!"

Oh god I decided I wanted to watch it all and the first couple lines got me:
"The monster game"
"It's called Daock Souls"
"What do we do?"
"Smash the monsters!"

[MrNovember]

Still haven't watched it all but best part is:
"Is it the beach? It's the man sitting!"
"Yeah I got his item off him, he was just sitting, he probably doesn't need it"

Gen 3 is probably my favourite out of all of them, but that's probably because I played Ruby for longer than any other game.
I am pretty keen for the remakes, the graphic style of those games hasn't aged very well.

Woo.

Drinking Scotch and playing Deus Ex. How it's meant to be done.

[rfurtkamp]

I tried the Wildstar open beta.

First impressions not impressed.

Will try it again but very meh.

I've heard the leveling up to 15 or so is a drag, but
For whatever reason, I just can't get interested in that game. Well, I don't think I'm up for subscription-based MMOs anymore unless it's something totally different.

[rfurtkamp]

It was boring as holy fuck and I can't get into half-baked scifi.

10 years ago, maybe.

But...now? $60? NCSoft? Pass.

[Achtane]

Hey, just because NCSoft does its best to suck the life out of every game it's in charge of doesn't mean the same'll happen with this one!
