Games you're playing right now, and my freetime's demise

[Andrew]

I think I've played Fallout 3 just about as much as I can until the new DLC comes out but I actually picked up Fallout 1, Fallout 2 and Fallout: Tactics as part of a "Fallout Collection" boxed set fairly cheaply off eBay since I never played the originals and am interested in checking them out.

[buzzy]

Picked up Far Cry 2 and I'm pretty addicted to it.
Also throwing in some rounds of NHL 09 here and there.

[Lean]

You'll be wowed with oldskoolness of the Fallout games 'drew.

If you didn't patch Fallout 1, you'll be having a time limit in completing the main quest.

Among the first three released games, I am to Fallout 2.

[Andrew]

So far I can certainly see why fans of the originals would be put off by Fallout 3 because it is so different but as I lack that nostalgia (at least specific to the Fallout series), so far I'd have to say I prefer the change in approach that Bethesda took. Fine games and I'm sure I'll get into them but I'm actually a little underwhelmed. Obviously I wasn't expecting graphics that rival Fallout 3 or anything ridiculous like that but as someone who played the most recent one first and with all due respect to the originals and Black Isle, I much prefer the current product.

[Lean]

I understand your point, 'drew. The first games are all in the classic isometric view. It's a sudden turn since Bethesda made F3 a real 3D game. The original, cancelled F3 (Van Buren) would have been 3D.

[Andrew]

It would seem combat is a little more strategic than simply "point and blast" too, which makes it a bit more challenging.

[Lean]

One of the things that made it lengthy is that the combat is entirely turn-based.

I have Oblivion right now, graphics is kinda outdated but still looks good. The time I left the sewers, the game asked me to edit my character before leaving. Fallout 3's ancestor.

[Andrew]

I've been tempted to give that one a look sometime too, having really enjoyed Fallout 3.

[imefimef]

rite now, i have NBA Live 08, Madden 08, Scarface, Watchmen(the game is pretty good), NBA 2K9, MLB 2K9, Call of duty 4, Kane and Lynch, Pes 09
but i only play NBA2K9, Scarface & Watchmen

[JaoSming]

picked up KillZone 2 with the girlfriend's discount today

I've only played the multiplayer so far, and am enjoying it. Kicking some ass, which is always good.

Other than that I am playing NCAA BBall 09: MM Edition and Live 09.

Kinda weird that I haven't been touching 2k9 still....but whatever.

Also looking into buying one of those HDMI/VGA/DVI to USB adapter things for some new HD video mixes, but we can wait and see where that goes.

[Andrew]

I really wish they could find a way to clear the hurdle with international licensing issues and release NCAA Basketball outside the States. Oh well, that's the tradeoff for having a 360.

[JaoSming]

that would actually explain why MME didnt come out on the PS3

thanks, that was actually really bugging me

[Ryan]

Picked up a PS3 off of Ebay and have been playing The Show, Killzone 2 demo, and the HAWX demo. All three are bad ass. HAWX comes out on pc today btw.

[kibaxx7]

Hey Kite, is Saints Row 2 any good? I was thinking in getting it but, I don't know.

Yes.

Guess I will buy it when I have the money, can't pass the oportunity of a GTA-ish game plus Tera Patrick.

[N'JAN]

Playing Resident Evil 5 on PS3 .As soon as I finish I'll try out Killzone 2 .

[bee-boy]

i just got and played street fighter IV. That game is so sick.

[FiZzO]

I'm halfway through Dead Space, Midnight Club LA, Fallout 3, RE5. And just started Hawx, Skate 2 and Farcry 2. I just can't get through one game at a time.. I want to play them all and because of that I don't really get into any one of them .. I need some kind of a schedule or something for my gaming time

[el badman]

I was gonna start Call of Duty: Wold at War on PC, I bought it used on amazon, but the DVD was corrupt and couldn't be installed...
Just finishing the Sam & Max season 2 these days, and replaying Crysis: Warhead a second time so that I can uninstall it afterwards. Oh, and NBA 2K9 of course.

[Lamrock]

Resident Evil 5 and NBA 2K9 right now. Also I'll sometimes play N+ for 15 minutes which turns into 2 hours.

[NovU]

i just got and played street fighter IV. That game is so sick.

DAMN! I wish they'd make that game for PC as well. I got logitech lumblepad 2 which will work nicely for that sick game.

[JaoSming]

it's coming out for PC in the summer

[bee-boy]

yeah i also heard it's coming for pc soon. It's a really great game

[NovU]

That's a great news. I hope they won't forget online feature.

[Drex]

WarHammer 40k: Dawn of War
Rollercoaster Tycoon 3

[JaoSming]

No Mercy is back in full force for me. I think it is more of a way to keep me distracted so I don't pay full price for legends of wrestlemania or get TNA Impact.
