every title I buy now probably just means 1 more on the shelf that I never actually play. :(
Even Bioshock??? WHAt???
IGNORED!!!
I'm not sure if you can read this, what with the IGNORing and all... But I will definitely pick up Infinite, maybe in about 6 months or so, and it will mean that I will never actually play Splinter Cell 5, Shadow of the Colossus, or, heaven forbid, Fallout Vegas. Every title I buy now means one on the shelf won't get played... but it probably won't be that title, if you follow.
Eh, leave Splinter Cell 5 and Fallout: New Vegas, definitely at least kill a few colossi in Shadow of the Colossus, it is a great game, but if it is between never playing it at all and only playing a few hours of it, I'd say play a few hours of it. It is essentially a puzzle game and the biggest challenge is figuring out how to take down each colossi, if you take down the first few, you've basically experienced the game. That isn't to say it isn't worth playing all the way through, if you have the time and initiative to do so.
I played [CoO and GoS] a little, they felt a lot like the PS2 games, only with really awful graphics in comparison and with a bit more of a claustrophobic feel to them.
Really awful in comparison to the PS2 games? I had heard that they were at least on par, but I haven't booted them up, so I don't know.
No way. I haven't played three yet, so I can't compare it. But going from playing GoW 2, which I think looks gorgeous, to playing the PSP ports, it was impossible to forget that they were designed for a 480 x 272 PSP screen.
Dead Island was a game I loved all the way to the end, and was disappointed when it was over. I remember thinking it was fantastic, but a little too short. My c-op partner and I played the campaign through 2 and a half times to get to get our levels up.
That's encouraging! I tend to trust your taste in games, so hopefully we will at least feel gratified that we played through to the end once!
I'm playing the Asian girl who seems to have developed a real glass jaw of late. I recently started using a long handled axe which has helped keep the undead at bay, but I have resigned myself to constant deaths just being part of the game.
Yeah, that game can be brutal. You really have to watch yourself and work with your partner to keep from dying all the time.
Honestly, I think I am one of that game's biggest advocates, I really enjoyed it through and through, but it seems that the vast majority of the gaming population has always been a lot less willing to over look its flaws than I have been.
Interestingly, a few months after beating it two and a half times and moving on to other games, a friend of mine bought it and wanted me to co-op it with him. I was really excited about the opportunity to play it through again, but found myself really bored. Maybe it was because I was getting really annoyed constantly explaining how the game worked to him, as he was going through the learning curb and I wasn't. Or maybe it was somehow related to bringing up the memories of the previous person I co-op'ed it with, who had since moved on and was now co-op'ing other dudes.
