Dude... Spelunker on NES... YUCK! That game has the worst fucking play-control of like any game ever! Haha.


Bukow... is it relatively easy to hook up for PS3 online shit? I did it with Smash Bros. and Mario Kart on my Wii, and I just used the same internet connection I use for my computer. It's just a wireless hookup that's included with my rent. I reckon it's pretty simple.

Is Little Big Planet 2 out yet? Which one is superior?

PS3's pretty easy to set up; there's a lil network option and you just sign in to your wireless.

I think the general consensus is LBP2 is better.

QUEST FOR GLORY V WAS THE BEST THING SIERRA EVER DID. EVER.

My boy space knows what's up with Dishonored. Deus Ex x Thief x Half Life concept. So excited. And it's only like 5 weeks out...

I gotta get on playing Red Dead Redemption....somehow it slipped by my completely when it came out.

I like that we have quite a few old school gamers here. I still think that SNES is my favorite system - sooooo many of my favorite games are on SNES. Hell, the only reason I still have my PSP is so I can play my SNES emulator on trips.

SNES is my all-time favorite system as well.


I'm going to imagine I'm Roland Deschain as I play Red Dead Redemption. Probably get a PS3 in the next few weeks... gotta sell my Sony Home Theatre first.

Heck yeah, SNES for life! I've had mine for 20 years now and it still rules, especially for RPGs!

And did anyone see that they're remaking Shadowrun? That shit was so dope. Like if William Gibson played D&D.

I guess for me I'd say the most memorable and favourite would be the Sierra stuff like Space Quest I, II, and Hero's Quest I, so I guess my favourite system is PC. PC games influenced me the most. Same with the old D&D games like the Eye of the Beholder series.

Greg, I've been checking out that Kickstarter! Same for the guys who created Space Quest, Two Guys From Andromeda, working on a new project with a Kickstarter.. flippin cool!

Don't forget about OKAMI HD coming out on PS3... this is the third time the game's been released... it's that good.

I had it for Wii and got about halfway through when the game locked up and I lost all my info... so I never finished it. Will do this time.

That one does look kinda nifty. Specially since apparently you can climb and stabby stab the bigger enemies.

Dragon's Dogma is cool for sure!

I have a dumb question about DLC... you know how in October they'll release the DLC for Dark Souls, the Prepare To Die edition, for consoles... do you have to start over when you get that or does it just add in to your game as is?

Have a fun gaming night Max!

Another question for your doobs...

Would you recommend the 160GB or 320GB hard drive version of the PS3?

I can get a 160GB for $250 new, or a 320GB bundle with Uncharted 3 for $300 new...

I'd only be using it for games... I have my computer for multimedia storage.

Do you like the Uncharted series, Christian? If you do, and you haven't played #3 yet, then I say go for that because big hard drives rule and Uncharted 3 rules. Really fun and interesting game!
