so what are you guys playing these days?

[jedijome]

haha ok since so many awesome new games have just come out for the pc what are you guys playing right now?

[Carnage]

Well I haven't really been playing much as of late.

But I'm going to be picking up Crimson Skies for the Xbox later tonight. I figure that should keep me busy for quite some time.

[thelefteyeguy]

lineage2 CB (free hehe)

[HamsterGirl35]

not a new game, Prince of Persia..... I like the graphics.... :)

[KapnK12]

I'm still playing RTCW:ET, but I'm thinking of picking up UT2k4.

[SAS-1]

Vietnam the most lately so I've voted for that.

I also have Ninja Gaiden, Far Cry, and, very soon, Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow on the go.

What did you think of Ninja Gaiden?

I played it for about 15 minutes and the brutal camera angles were just too painful to handle. Does it get any better farther into the game? Or is the camera always glued to your face of back?

[HamsterGirl35]

Thanks Carnage, at first, I was going to get that copy, but, now I won't coz I can't handle bad camera angle,... I guess that's why I like Prince of Persia :)

[vladislav]

Far Cry, X2 The Threat, Lineage II

[chdude3]

Yeah, the camera is a pain, particularly when you're surrounded by enemies. You have to click the left trigger to constantly reposition. This is a problem in an awful lot of true '3d' games actually. But the game is still challenging and fun. The bosses are especially cool. Your jaw will drop, especially at the end of the 2nd level, as the boss kicks your ass. It's a cool game because even minor enemies can destroy you if you're not paying attention. Sort of like real life martial arts. :)

It's a game to rent and see if you like it. I did so, and ended up buying it.

No prob.

You could rent it if you're really curious.

The action itself in the game is pretty cool though.

But the camera issue is a big enough flaw that I wouldn't suggest anyone buy it without renting it first.

[HamsterGirl35]

good idea, I will go rent it first and see how I like it.... thanks :)

ET is my daily game - limited lives rules! I'm thinking about BF Vietnam but probably need to do some serious upgrading as I can't even run the demo of Call Of Duty!

[ferkel]

I'm playing Dead to Rights.. Got a huge stack of PS2 games to go through this year :wacko: Too bad a job gets in the way of my gaming time :D

The camera in Ninja Gaiden can be very frustrating at first. Eventually you will get used to centering the camera with the R trigger that it'll just become second nature and another button in the game you have to push.

The game has grown on me and has turned into one of my favorite Xbox games. The carnage you can dish out in later levels is awesome. Animations and graphics are the best on Xbox I've seen. The sound is great and the CG cutscenes are phenomonial. Once you start pulling off 50+ hit combos you'll realize all the pain you went through getting used to the camera is all worth it.

I'm currently on chapter 11 of 16. This game is VERY FREAKING hard. Some bosses you'll feel are near impossible. I love this aspect of the game though. The last game I played, Baldur's Gate DA: 2 was a joke and I felt ripped off. I want to die during a game! Just be prepared to put the controller down and take 20-30 minutes break. There have been times that I was ready to throw my cordless controller across the room. :D (And I'm usually a very calm gamer).

[Calmuser]

i'm waiting for Syberia 2! hurry up april 1st B)

[Kurtz7834]

One game I have still not gotten through, after more than 50 hours playing it, is Knight of the Old Republic. I'm near the end though. Great game, one of my all time gaves.

[Leshita]

Unreal Tournament 2004 (UT is one of only PC game I enjoy ^_^)
Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes.

[LtFransky]

BF:V, although it's still too early to comment on how the game will develop. Everyone wants to either fly or play as an american machinegunner.

My main game is still America's Army. Hooah! Realistic killing never gets old.

[sleepyguy]

Right now....

Jagged Alliance 2 (I will 'never' stop playing this! :)) PC

If you play and are looking for a great no BS server check out:

A Walk in the Sun (http://awits.com/)

[thomas997]

Top three in this order: Far cry, UT2004, BF:V

When I finish far cry, or get bored of it, then it will be UT and BF...


Played the splinter cell demo, didnt seem as fun as the last one.

Multiplayer might be interesting though

[Capt. Canada]

Nothing beats Socom 2! :wub:

[frogeee]

Splinter Cell, Call of Duty and a plethora of random NES and SNES ROM's. God bless Nintendo.

[PriceChopper]

Tried to play FarCry, but no go, until some new drivers come out or game update, but I just started a game called Sacred, kinda like Diablo II, except, they always tell you where to go and have the location on the map for you, but i guess it's suppose to be for the story -_- and almost forgot, Winning Eleven 7 (soccer), game is good, because it is challenging (hard mode), easy to medium = too easy, and almost guaranteed wins except for the top teams (for medium).

[viper84737]

I play Russian Roulette with a semiautomatic pistol. No wonder I keep losing... :(

[thunder]
