Pretty sweet:
Potential Spoilers: Harrison Ford Playing Uncharted 3 Japan - YouTube
So stoked for this game
MW3 in two weeks.
meh, tired of gta
I haven't played a GTA since 3, which I played for ~90 minutes. Completed GTA2 though :P
VICE CITYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
i love how a giant % of my time home will be spent on a couch playing video games with friends. BRING ON THE FALL QUARTER
San Andreas is only my most favorite game ever. I got to $400,000,000 in the game without cheating, but then I wanted to cash out.
But even so I never played 4. I'm just now contemplating whether or not to buy a console or a new video card to play newer games. New videocard seems to be the +EV option though, as SWTOR is about to be released and even if it is an MMORPG it's the one game that has piqued my interest in ages. Well, that and NBA 2K12.
+1 on MW3 but I has an xbox
+everyone on not having been into much GTA in recent memory. I've tried to pick up GTA 4 a few times, but once I get in a car and see how terribad I am at driving, I just quit outright.
Really the only game I'm interested in is the next Fallout whenever that comes out.
the only fallout i played was new vegas. which was fun except for the stupid vats system. was not a fan of easy mode combat but i thoroughly enjoyed every other aspect of the game
Yeah VATS + whichever skill makes you good with a sniper rifle makes the game super ez mode. I remember clearing out the Deathclaws from that salt-mine area from like a mile away. But Fallout 3 and NV were both super fun to explore.
Adding myself to Fallout bandwagon. Great games.
Personally, I'm more eager for Skyrim to come out than anything else. ELDER SCROLLS FOR THE MTFW!
the new fable.
the new bioshock.
MFW3.
I have been thinking of picking up some sort of game again. I was an avid gamer in the past back in the Nintendo, sega and PS1 era and played a ton. Once PS2 came out I played Vice City, Grand Turismo 3 and a lot of sports games. I haven't been able to find the genre I want to get back into playing. I have looked at even playing WoW a couple times but haven't picked it up. Since picking up poker my inner gamer has faded.
I even got into Half Life, Command and conquer, myst and some starcraft2 on the computer. I miss playing games, I just can't find one to peak my interest in my downtime like Poker did.
RDR is so fun. I load up RDR: Zombies every now and then and just run around shootin dem brainz out
Arkham City is super addicting. One of the best games I've played in recent years.
Also, NBA Jam: On Fire Edition is fun as hell. In your Xbox/PS3 store.
curse the wankers who made BF3 so system heavy
cant f play on my laptop
also borderlands 2 sometime in the far future
So many fucking good games out or coming out. I simply don't have the time for this.
Yea, that was pretty fkn AIDS, and I really think that to date the series peaked at Morrowind. Skyrim looks like it has some serious potential though.
Morrowind is my hands down favorite game of all time though. If they could revamp the battle system to be more similar to Oblivion I think I would spend another 8,000 hours playing that game.
You guys playing Elder Scrolls on PC? If not, you should be. Use mods to fix about anything you can think of.
I played both on PC back when I had a PC that could play games. Most likely going to play Skyrim (if I ever do) on Xbawks since I don't want to invest in PC hardware anymore.
Realizing all my PS3 games are shooters. Need something else for balance.
What is your #1 non-shooter PS3 recommendation? You go now!
God of War series.
Oblivion! Skyrim coming out in less than a week!!
Arkham City.
Portal.
*sitting on the porch waiting for MW3*.
Figuratively, of course... some of us is old and has job.
i fucking hate that my 360 isnt here
I fly home tomorrow night and will be loading MW3 asap
Totally not a video game guy but been playing InfamousII on my sons PS3. Really having fun. We're gonna get the 1st one and then get festival of blood. Should be good.
lulz
Arkham city is so much fun.
mw3 is fun
kill confirmed is weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Infamous 2 was great, got the bundle. I'm playing the first one now too, it's fun but the graphics are a bit rougher, it's difficult getting used to not having all his powers. I keep just missing buildings, and hitting the button to glide only to be dissapointed.
Also playing MW3 on PS3, Knightofnarg if anyone wants to add me. Pretty good with domination, mediocre everywhere else.
SKYRIM IN 10 HOURS
Skyrim looks so awesome but i dont know if i would ever be able to devote enough time to it to make it worth buying.
No clue when and if I'll ever get skyrim
lol, Al-Bashir's car on BF3 single player
Don't think I've ever had to load a level so many times.
What's everyone's loadout on MW3?
RUSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
pp90m + kick (will be range w/e I unlock) + silencer
fmg 9 (will akimbo)
flash , semtex
SoH
Hardline
Steady Aim
Specialist Support Package
Assassin + Scavenger + Dead Silence
BIG MAPS
Type 95 (various attachments, depends)
Stinger (cuz fuckers don't shoot down air support)
bouncing betty, concussion
SoH
Assassin
Marksman
Support
UAV + Vests (lol prolly need to change this) + EMP
ive killed bigred a few times and he killed me a few times (maybe more?)
i also got game winning kill versus frosst who doesn't poast here anymore
few gripes -
spawns/maps(?): In order to create more gun on gun battles, IW has no qualms about spawning people behind you/right next to you. Also, the maps lack choke or power points. I don't know how I feel about that - it kinda reduces camping but everything feels kinda crazy.
Some of the maps are just plain unappealing to me. Outpost and Bakara come to mind. I like Dome, Hardhat, Resistance, and Interchange, and that other big one that looks kinda like Resistance.
Can't wait til they bring back some maps from COD4 and MW2.
guns: Like MW2, secondary machine pistols are lol overpowered. I think black ops had it right when they basically just had pistols as secondarys and you could add an auto attachment but it wasn't like you could drop people from range.
Quickscoping is overpowered now toooo.
I heard the shotguns suck but I haven't used one yet.
random shit placed everywhere: wtf barrel, refrigerator, pallets, etc. this really hurts the grenades and some of the shit that you should be able to jump over you can't.... Like I can jump on to one dumpster but I can't jump on another same sized dumpster? Also frustrating to have nignog shooting magically shooting through an object with just his head exposed.
connection: Personally, I'm toast if I don't have a 4 bar (full) connection. On 3 bar, I round the corner and they have already seen me for a full second and usually pwn me. I even turned the theater off, thinking that might help. Dedicated servers plz.
killstreaks: take god damn stealth bomber out of support, juggernaut is way overpowered in objective games, jfc there are too many UAVs up
With all that said, when I got a 4 bar connection, I'm having a good time.
oya, n00b t00b is basically useless now, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Picked up MW3 Friday.
I'm enjoying it so far. I'm really having a tough time figuring out the maps though. Trying to play as many objective games as possible (mostly Search) to get a grasp on where everything is at.
There are just a shit load of windows and head glitches for people to be in and spawns are fucking insane.
We've been playing Domination and had the enemy team double capped (let's say they had only the A flag) and have simultaneously spawned in with an enemy in a C flag spawn point on a few occasions.
LOVE the CoD4 red dot sights they're using in this game!
All in all, enjoying it so far.
Yeah, the spawns are wtf bad. I've almost broken a controlled for spawning multiple times in a row with an enemy shooting me a second later
Noob toob sucks. Maps are kinda bleh. I like choke points (mainly cause I'm a burst rifle camper) and I miss the MW2 of old. There's that one huge map, dome?, which is favorable for long range weapons. I haven't figured out my close range gun yet. I'm pretty good at mowing down enemy one and then getting mowed down by his buddies right behind him.
Dome is the only map I can actually manuever around confidently. And if you're not being sarcastic, then Dome is not the map you're thinking of. I'm pretty sure that's the smallest map in the game, probably the same size (if not smaller) than Scrapyard.
Heard a rumor that PC already has Cod4 maps and Highrise from MW2. Gay as fuck console has to wait on the DLC for those.
Speaking of which...did anybody buy the elite or hardened edition? My brother got it and he gets all DLC a month early and free. I kind of wish I had of gotten one of those, but I just couldn't bring myself to pay $120 for a video game. (Although I do realize when all is said and done, I'll spend more on maps etc.)
i havent even played yet and im already pffting your quick scope oped
Actually, Dome is pretty awesome. The one I was referring is nothing but concrete. It looks like ruined highways, on ramps, etc.
Damn, just played SND on it and went 9/0. Love this map.
I haven't figured out a good loadout for TDM but for SnD I really like:
SCAR
Heartbeat sensor
Silencer
SoH Pro
Assassin Pro
Stalker Pro
Support streak with uav, vests, airstrike
Also, I'd never spend $120 on a game. Hope the few who did enjoy playing the dlc map packs a month early by themselves since no one else was dumb enough to pay that money.
i've been running:
Type 95 w/ RDS and rapid fire
frag
stun
SoH Pro
Assassin Pro
Stalker Pro
support streak because i die too much w/ UAV, CUAV and Stealth Bomber. Sometimes ill just run UAV and CUAV and just constantly spam them the entire match.
type 95 is such a sick sick gun. 2 shot kills FTW! I like the PP90 whatever for smaller maps sometimes also. After i've got to know the maps better i like alot of them. Carbon is the AIDS, but everything else is terrible. Big fan of Fallen now and i hated it the first few times i played it.
I don't know if it'll have the staying power of zambies, but a buddy and I played Survival mode this past weekend and had a lot of fun with it.
is that under Spec Ops? I haven't played anything but multiplayer so far. And 90% of that has been Kill Confirmed!
Skyrim confirmed awesome.
Load screens kinda kill the fun a bit, but patches/updates should make it more than serviceable.
I never truly got into zombies. Mainly because it consisted of angry 12 year olds cursing at me while we shot at zombies. Whereas in the normal game it's me shooting at angry 12 year olds who then curse at me.
I need types on how to not suck so bad at this eff'ing game. Probably should switch to something other than the first available LMG. I figured I'd just level it up all the way, but should've probably picked something different.
What are you playing? TDM? FFA?
learn 2 quick scope kingnat and forever pwn face.
I started using the Type 95... it has been very successful comparatively. I have heard of this quick scoping, I shall investigate... but so far I'm just getting used to this.
@trip I play almost entirely Kill Confirmed
hmmmm
id try using an smg like p90 or pp90m1 thing (silencer + range)
akimbo fmg9
marathon + assassin + steady aim
I'd use specialist package maybe go (SoH + Scavenger + whatever)
Key here is to not take people head on, run around the edge of the maps and flank them. If you are running down areas with hudge lines of sight you are going to get raped by ARs and sniper rifles. But in close quarters, even with old man reflexes, you should win like >75% of gun fights shooting from the hip with ur fast as fuck smg. Silencer and Assassin will keep you off the radar (but enemy air support can still see you if you want to use blind eye).
less smg silly-nanny'ery more quick scoping
much thanks for all the advice! I'll see what I can do with it.
MW3 Quick Scope Montage - YouTube
pure awesomeness
That went pretty well... my "loadout" (i'm so fucking street it hurts) consists of
Type 95
Kick, Red Sight and Rapid Fire
Using Blind Eye, Hardline Pro, and Stalker Pro
Specialist Package with SoH Pro, Quick Draw (though honestly I get Quick Draw MAAYYbe once a game at most.
It works well, because if I manage to run through a whole clip chances are I killed something, my SoH Pro is activated and I get the quick reload. :)
so you haven't gotten your third specialist perk yet? ;)
I'd just want assassin and a silencer for staying off UAVs.
Maybe I should switch to hardline cuz it'd be 1 - 3- 5 (assassin, soh, w/e) and start with extreme conditioning+hardline+steady aim
+ I feel like a boss when specialists perks pop up after i kill someone
