UFO Enemy Unknown (Mute it, theres some fuckturd talking over it)

Aw man, was thinking of playing Ultima Underworld just the other day, been wanting to give it a spin again for ages. It's probably one of those games I remember being scared shitless by, and will just laugh it off today. What an amazing game though, way ahead of its time.

Was gonna post a bunch of Microprose classics but my net is running exhaustingly slow atm :G

Good idea for a thread btw

Kinda considered getting it a while back, but it just looked too fugly so I didn't bother (Sorry, can't help but be superficial ).

On a different note, you really need to play something more happy ala Katamari or LocoRoco D3, you play way too many depressing games man

Yeah, while you're at it put Gamer55 on Blizzard

/me hides

I still think it's gonna be the East coast with a circle forming New York, Chicago and Washington with country sides in between, or something like that.

Just having a big detailed Liberty City wouldn't be bad either, but I think it would still somehow feel like a step down after getting used to San Andreas' size

I'm still waiting to get some info on what they're doing with the gameplay. If there's going to be jump in scale of things you can do like there was from Vice City to San Andreas, then I have no idea how huge it would be. I just know they haven't failed to deliver so far, so sadly I'm hyped up and expecting massive things

Yeah, thats a pretty badass character, if you do in fact play him. No more of this stupid gangster and gangsta shit, GTA could use a change of style in that department. Seem pretty controversial that they're making the player an immigrant, given GTA's nature as a media attack magnet. Probably wont change anything though

Also on a second viewing after sleeping I'm a bit more enthusiastic about it, I just want some info on the actual gameplay :G

Oh yeah, try freeze framing it around the part where its at the time square'ish place (00:30), lots of the same 3 types of cars [/unfair nitpicking]

Just saw it, not terribly impressed tbh. But then again, know no details on the actual game. Looks pretty detailed though, if its on a nice big scale it should be sweet

Heh, pretty naive of me to think that it would actually work. Screw this, I'll be spending my entire night pressing F5 at this pace. Might as well just goto bed ~

Dont forget now

3 hours

Whats up with the Raven->Gearbox migration?

My problems right now is that my computer is exactly far enough away to not just connect it to the TV, plus that'd be via DVI so I'd have to get some cables over to the amp for sound as well.

Been considering getting a Mac Mini or a h@x3d Apple TV, but those seem like more extreme measures.

Hmmm, maybe getting a proper HDMI DVD player that take on most formats would work :G~

I'm totally with you. Obviously I'm slightly biased since I actually bought a PS3, but overall I think the media and people in general are waaay outta control on the PS3 bashing. Sony has deserved a lot of it when their PR muppets act like children and they tear out hardware for different regions, but fact is that its a pretty decent console with some pretty good launch titles. I certainly haven't regretted buying it, Motorstorm online is probably some of the best fun I've had this console generation (At least when I'm winning ;D).

But you'd definitely still be insane to buy a PS3 before a 360 if you're getting it for the games though, gonna take a while for the PS3 to get into the kinda release gear Microsoft has going on.

Oh yeah, I bought a 40" Bravia yesterday (W2000, not the glass framed X2000), got it insanely cheap and the picture on this thing is unbelievable.

Now I just want my free Casino Royale on Blu-ray

For how much did you get it Maz? The cheapest I can find online after a quick search is like 1.8k D: !!

Motorstorm is pretty good I agree. At first I thought this looks nowhere as good as in the videos they released, but I guess it looks good enough. I don't know what I was expecting after all the marketing buzz around the PS3's technical power.

The game itself is great though, I'm not into racing games at all, but the tracks are great, very wide and open with multiple routes and levels. The "reversed boost" works great for me too, nice arcadish racer

About €2.100, which is half of the X2000 here. Also keep in mind that we have an absolute shitstorm of taxes n shit in Denmark. It's pretty much the same price you'd get an average Samsung for in the same size.

Now I just need some fancy setup to stream HD movies from the computer to the TV, hmmmm~

(Edit on re-reading this sounds a bit preachy, I don't mean to be I'm just a bit sick of the endless Sony hate that seems to be endlessly spread across every single gaming site the last 12 months).

Onoes I lost an hour D:

You must have missed the outcry a few months back when they said it doesnt come with those cables

:wink:

Yeah, totally missed it. I probably have to put some blame on the guy in the EB where I bought, since I specifically asked him if I would need to get anything extra with it (Given that I almost always have to get extra shit with em, Wifi/Rechargable Battery/Recharge wire for the 360), and he said it didn't have a HDMI cable, but component was fine.

He probably knew as much about it as me, but still, damn it pisses me off to open the box to that kinda surprise :G

Beh

Dont even think I'll bother and try to run it on my home computer, sounds like its a system hog :G

Saw somebody play it at work though, looks quite nice. Kinda like a depressing Oblivion with guns and radiation

Its amazing, after coming home with the PS3, already hella tired and just wanting things to go smoothly, I start unpacking it. After having taken everything out I realize something fairly important is missing; it doesn't come with a component cable. Get this: It doesn't come with a component cable, it doesn't come with a HDMI cable, it comes with a standard AV/Scart cable.

WHAT . THE . FUCK!?!??!

Yeah Sony, the next generation of HD shit doesn't begin until you launch your console.....and force people to buy the most fundamental of video cables extra. When something cost this much you'd think a simple component cable would be included.

I'm still in shock, it is quite simply unacceptable that they're doing this.

Motorstorm is quite nice though :G

Dominion City

Reactor City

Plutonium City

Oh wait that wont do, would probably work for industrial zones in Sonic though

I cried from laughing

Wow Erratic, looks great! Totally love the feel of the lighting, very unique, especially for a DOD:S map I think. Looks fun too
