You can't say "that is all" and then "P.S." without sounding like a big sucky suck who sucks and probably will have wiener kids one day.

DON'T talk about Ziggy that way!

I don't know, you're suppose to be the site archivist. In some thread it was established that a future time traveling version of me went back in time and became the bearded Flogging Molly fan who impregnated his mom. That is why his mom and I agree on so much, we're soul mates. Or at least were in her past/are in my future, for a little while.

I just want to say everybody here sucks for not liking and playing the games I like and play and leaving nobody for me to talk to about them.

That is all.

 

P.S. The next game I will be purchasing is Rage. In the interest of not sucking, buy it.

I too will be purchasing RAGE.

I wouldn't expect xhonzi to be joining us in the 'not sucking' - he's far too much of a bargain hunter. [although I'm certain he could trade in a stack fo terrible games for it...]

Actually really looking forward to RAGE now, after watching a whole bunch of videos. Looks like a lot of fun with a sense of adventure. - unlike the dark corridor shooters of past.

Considering possibly getting it on PC [now that i have a decent one] but might just cave and get it for 360.

 It's only part bargain- though it is part.

It's more that I just don't have the time to keep up.  If I paid $60 for something, it would probably be $30 by the time I got around to playing it anyways.  :(

Nobody puts xhonzi on page 2.

I finished Deus Ex3 too early and now it's a bit of a wait until the next game I wanna play - RAGE. Granted it's not long now, a bit over a week or so.

I thought about getting Dead Island but I've heard it's not that good - and a bit glitchy - can anyone vouch for it? it looks like fun but I dunno if it's worth getting brand new...

I'm taking a break from Dead Island at the moment but thoroughly enjoying the PC version. It does have a few annoyances but it's the most immersive and enjoyable game I've played since Fallout 3. I haven't played co-op yet as I want to finish the game by myself, but it's apparently even more fun with 4 people.

But a bit over a week? You can probably hold out... it is a little shallow and glitchy, though if you've got a 360, CP3X didn't seem to have any problems with that version.

SPOILERS (a bit)

 

I'm not long into the city which is the second major area. There are three, it is not a completely free-roam environment. Just starting to encounter more firearms and human enemies. The first "punk" I came across jumped about 8 feet vertically out of a river and nailed my [REDACTED] with some Jackie Chan-type [REDACTED], but it's easier going once you just shoot them all instead. The infected are nasty, they kept nailing me till I learned to kick them first.

end spoilers

I usually play games on easy so having no difficulty option and getting killed with two or three good hits has actually made me enjoy it more because I'm more scared of the zombies and getting killed.

I've been saying since it came out, it is amazing. I love it. One of the best games I've played in a long time.

But, I am a pretty big zombie fan, so the subject matter is a lot of what makes it so great to me. I also play it with someone, which makes it a lot more fun. I guess I have been lucky, but I haven't run into any game breaking glitches and neither has the friend I play with. From all I have heard, the patch that was released during the first week fixed all the game breaking glitches. 

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Beat it and am still playing it. Just got done clocking a few hours into it just now. Still loving it.

During the initial reviews, I remember reading somewhere that the 360 version was the least glitchy. Other than an occasional zombie disappearing right before my eyes and a few annoying total system lockups (3 times total, I believe, in over 40 hours of playing; with FO:New Vegas I had a total system lockup about once every hour or two of playing), I really didn't have any problems.

Warcraft all the time, all the time Warcraft.

The Mrs and I are riding this triple experience as high as it will take us (level 80). I'm not sure what happens after that point, but we have friends who will help us out. We started a guild the other day with one of the guys from the FilmRot podcast. Should be interesting.

 FilmRiot or FilmRot?  If it's the former, I LOVE that podcast! 

If not, then screw 'em.

Screw you!

But seriously, I started listening when they had Jambe on a few months ago, they're just a couple friends who sit around and talk about movies once a week. I admire their persistence (they've been doing it for years), and the fact that they'll have me.

Battlefield 3 beta... *drools*

Did my 48-hour early access time (though it was considerably less considering school and download times) now the beta is open. Go check it out if you're so inclined. My name is obviously Tyrphanax.

So much fun. Just like slipping back into the warm bath that was BF2, only now it's warmer and it has bubbles.

Manliest description ever.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

END OF LINE

You know, I actually saw a reference to Total Biscuit outside of this forum? Blew my mind.

I don't recall where or why. I just googled him, apparently he's a big deal, or he sells himself as one.

Oh, is he that girl in the "I'm kind of a big deal" shirt?

No, he just kind of sells himself as one. Kind of like that dork of ours that made that super awesome first 3-in-1 prequel edit that really sucks, can never remember his name, he too is kind of a big deal, but only because he himself says so.

 

I hereby declare C3PX as apparently a big deal. A very big deal, in fact.

Adore me!
