    Default Bigred's Videogame Thread

    Truth be told, videogames are awesome. This thread is inspired by the LBP thread and by UG picking up an xbox 360. Welcome to the wide world of current gen gaming UG. Feel free to discuss any game you've been playing, have played, or are looking forward to playing.

    I've actually been on quite the playing spree lately.

    Single player games I've recently beaten:

    360: Gears of War 2, Left 4 dead

    PS3: Force Unleashed, Fallout 3, LittleBigPlanet

    Still need to beat Resistance 2, I'll get to that eventually.

    My roommate has been playing the latest Prince of Persia for Xbox 360. It looks pretty cool, I'll probably try that out later.

    Lastly, I downloaded the Resident Evil 5 demo for Ps3 last night. It's pretty badass. If anyone has a ps3 and wants to play my psn is bgj84v. Demo is a free download.

    Xbox360 tag is ScottMalkenson. I'd be willing to play Left 4 Dead, Halo 3, Fifa 09, or Gears of War 2.

    I've been meaning to buy that but for some reason there's always been something I want just a little more. Will, what's your PSN tag?

    My biggest anticipated game for 09 is God of War 3. I can't wait!

    Bigred's favorite video game?

    Invaders.

    Xbox 360 tax: UG1979

    Current games are NCAA Football 2009 and GTA4. GTA4 seems decent but I haven't really played much yet. I haven't even used any weapons yet, so that tells you how far into the game I am so far.

    NCAA is ok. The last NCAA game I owned was 2005, but my favorite (by far) is 2004 (Carson Palmer on the cover). That game was just so fast, so wide open....it was pretty sick. The current 2009 version I have seems to play slower, a lot more like the old Madden games played (I've never been a huge Madden fan). It'll probably take some getting used to, but defense seems more like "pick a play and let the computer play it for you." There just doesn't seem to be the freedom of the 2004 game I remember.

    Overall I'm happy with the purchases I made.


    Games I'll probably get soon: Gears of War and (I think?) it's a Call of Duty game. Some kid in one of my classes is selling me a bunch of his old (and newer) games. Hopefully I'll have them soon so I can get online and have you guys own me.

    DO NOT waste your money on Prince Of Persia. It's all eye candy and no fun. It becomes extremely repetitive after the first 30 minutes. There's really not much to do in that game.

    I'm going to get LBP soon.

    And I highly recommend Portal (part of the Orange Box pack -- from the makers of the Half-Life series) for anyone that's into FPS and puzzle games. It's not a shooter, but you control it like a shooter. It's really a brain-teasing environmental puzzle. Hard to explain without seeing it in action.

    I dunno man. I'm tired of these female main characters. Testosterone + limit = omnislash
    Estrogen + limit = sex and the city marathon

    The other one looks good though with the badass guy dressed in dark clothes. FF13 versus I believe? I loved FF7 and the characters from FF8. Seifer Almasy and Sephiroth are still two of my favorite game characters.

    My roommate bought it already so I'm not wasting money! I agree with the monotony though. When you get LBP, make sure you have a headset. I don't want to spend 15 minutes typing out you're a dumb ass going the wrong way when I can shout "wtf are you doing noob?" in a matter of seconds.

    Locke, Chrono and Fei Fong Wong are some of my favorite vid game characters.
    I seriously doubt there is anyone more badder-ass than Fei Fong Wong ever.

    I just wish they'd retake dev of Chrono Break at some point.


    And come on, you know if you get Versus you would have to get the main one too

    He is in Crisis Core for the PSP (Awesome BTW, on my second playthrough). And there was a fan-service movie, um "Advent children" or something? Ask 3tanes, I'm sure he knows more...

    FF7 was amazing. If you whisper the name Aeris around bigred, you can see his boner grow 3 sizes right infront of you.

    so I became friends with some kids that I go to school with, but never had classes with until this semester. About a week ago, I found out they played/play (yes still) diabloII and are video game dorks at heart. It was such a great feeling to know that not only am I not alone, but I also now have people to share my video game nerdiness with.

    I loved FF7 ever since it came out in late 97. Got it that christmas. One of my first RPG's, with the exception of Super Mario RPG, which kicked very much ass.

    Who played super mario RPG here?

    i'm on the biggest hold out ever for a ps3.
    so many versions, so many different features, so much research to do, and no backwards compatibility in he most power efficient later models.

    i think i will buy this one once it's available




    but I also need to buy a kick ass upconverting receiver, and a big widescreen lcd before that, so it will take some time (and a shitload of reources) before i'm on psn

    Did you like Mario? The game has a cute, harmless approach to a wide open platformer with a huge variety of challenges. One minute you're racing cars across the map, jumping over alligators while swinging from tree to tree, and then flying over everything in a hot air balloon collecting items. Some items can only be accessed by teamwork so you can't just sit there and play alone. Some bonus parts of the map require 4 players to work together. It's quite a fun concept.

    What I really like about the game is the open ended map design. It gives the player the ability to create whatever he wants using a good physics engine. Some of the user maps I've played have been awesome.


    @slayer, I played fallout 3 and got bored at first. Then decided I would give it another shot when my roommate got our hi def TV cause it looked beautiful. I couldn't put it down afterward when I got a little farther into the story.

    oh i thought you had it. yeah i got modern warfare, but there is also world at war.

    why would you buy it new? the dude at the vg store told me blu ray's don't scratch (unless maybe you put a thumb tack to it), so buying used seems way more +ev.
