Video Games - a general discussion thread

I agree with skyman completely. I don't know how many times I've plunked down 20, 30, forty dollars for a game

but I totally disagree with you guys on pc as a gaming platform being dead...
lets all remember that both the Xbox 360 and the PS3 are computers inside that nice shiny case...
when it comes to the PC it will always be the number 1 choice for games for games due to the fact that the technology is always evolving and this in turn helps game developers bring their creations to life...
example: Farcry for the pc and then for the xbox...


Actually, by all accounts I've heard Farcry is better on the X-Box than the PC version.

Yeah, cause then you'll get run over by a car.


I can't believe I'm saying this to Adam, but

My favorite is that one called something like "Jojojo jojojojo"


Actually, it's Bobobo-bo-bobo. Wherein the villains are those who shave people's heads.

And Sage, the only loincloth I can think of in any of the anime you mentioned is Alphonse Elrich's in Full Metal Alchemist (the name, by the way, makes perfect sense in the context of the show) and Alphonse has his soul stuck in a suit of armor, so it's not like he really even needs clothing.

Agreed. It's just unfortunate that most of their best stuff over the past year is on the DS.

This WOULD be a good thing if the Gamecube wasn't doing so poorly. They had one game the whole year that got universal acclaim: Fire Emblem. Everything else was either a mixed bag or got varied reviews, and the onlything else worth paying fifty dollars on the GC last year was RE4 (which admittedly was worth every penny, but that's besides the point)

New Model PSP in 2006
Time
I have a PSP and can't say I'm terribly impressed. Mostly just the game selection doesn't intereste me save a few Titles, all of which except Lumines have better coutnerparts on console. And since the battery life is short, I never really take my PSP anywhere, so playing a slightly watered-down GTA is only so much fun.

On the other hand, the game "Exit" looks like it could be a good game for the system.
