What games are you waiting for the most?

[brad.dude03]

Ah, I need to obtain Gears of War 2!

 

[Masiah]

Been on the presentation of that game in Barcelona, it looks awesome. Shame it's only going out for the 360.

 

[Andreja]

1. WotLK.
I don't play anything else except WoW now >.<

 

[Dr Super Good]

Starcraft 2
Diablo III

Only if they are free thou, if they are pay to play then those will be struck off the list.

Otherwise it would probably have to be the next lego game from the lego starwars, indiana jones and batman series.

 

[thegreatsmite]

Celebery Sprots Showdown, another game for my AAA list


1 - SC2
2 - The Conduit
3 - COD 5
4 - Diablo TRES!!!
5 - Madworld



i could care less about WotLK, i played WOW for a month fror free and realized "wow, this isnt worth my life..." (no pun intended)

oh and 6 - WC4 (becasue it won't ever exist)

 

[brad.dude03]

Wc4 has already basically been announced, dude, check your facts.

 

[Masiah]

Indeed? I haven't heard so.

 

[Steel_Stallion]

There is no Warcraft IV. Not coming, ever.

 

[Gilles]

It was slipped?! Or strategically placed.

I can't wait for Gears, but I think I'll just rent it with a friend. We beat the other one in like two days of casual playing, and I don't expect a whole lot more. I really only buy replayable games, and I don't play online. Stupid Live.

 

[brad.dude03]

Actually, there is. Slipped right out that a system they're using in SC2 is the same as the one in WC4, thus basically giving away the fact that a WCIV is in the works.

 

[TDR]

The Elder Scrolls V

 

[Gausslander]

Dawn of War 2. That's about it.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

PacMan 2.

 

[Gilles]

It's odd that they would slip it after being so careful all the time about information.

I just got it a few hours ago, gilles. Let me put your worries to rest.

This is the sequal we've been waiting for. Sucks if you don't have live, but there are Bots so you can always versus with a friend.

Oh and did I mention Horde mode?

no more talking, must play

 

[brad.dude03]

Yeah, Gears 2 is going to be amazing. Gotta get my money together for a 'Backup'... that I could have had weeks ago.

 

[Gilles]

Backup? As in another hard drive for your 360?

I still don't think I'll buy it. Once I beat it once with a friend, I'm happy and can put it to rest.

 

[brad.dude03]

No, backup as in a burned Dual-Layer DVD.

 

[Steel_Stallion]

Got to Act 4 on gears...

Act 2 is the longest so far, also the funnest. You look at video clips and screenshots, it does not do the game justice.

You have to play it to see its graphics, I didn't think they would like this nice but the screenshots and clips are misleading.

It looks fantastic. The tiny details, like the tip of your gun heating up and turning red and the way the blood spreads between cracks on the ground...

remember when the "slipped" the information on SC Ghost???

 

[brad.dude03]

Yeah, and it was in developement until it barrel rolled.

 

[skrab]

The Elder Scrolls V

Elder Scrolls V In 2010? - Voodoo Extreme

if they turn to MMO...(-.\\)

 

[thegreatsmite]

honetly, i hope that Wc4 doesnt end up like SC ghost.... but im still doubtful.

if anything they would need (or should) make W4 bacwards omcpatable with W3, so we could have all of our old W3 maps and models and stuff. that would be the most mazing feat in RTS history!

 

[HappyTauren]

No, it'd suck, who would like to play old shit?

 

[thegreatsmite]

No, it'd suck, who would like to play old shit?

Who wouldn't want to play old shit?

 

[brad.dude03]

Everyone. Innovation is necesarry, and in order for it to truly occur, the past must be left behind. This means backwards-compatibility just has to go.

 

[Masiah]

People would just remake the old maps. I bet there will be a DotA map the next day after the release of WC4.

That map would surely suck. It takes at least a few months to make a decent map.

 

[Steel_Stallion]

Just finished my playthrough of gears 2 on hardcore. It's a solid 4 hours longer than gears 1, the story is great (Espcially the Dom/Maria sub plot) but it creates more sub plots than it concludes. Atleast the ending hints at gears 3 (Stay after credits)

and despite a really disappointing end chapter, the overall game is great. Multiplayer is insanely addictive espicially horde mode. Try surviving 50 waves of Horde mode on insane. It's fucking nuts

And Co-op is so much better than gears 1, which is no understatement since gears 1 already had some great co-op. But the scenarios and shit that you play through feel like the levels were designed with the intention that 2 people will be playing this.

Ya its great, go get it if you got a 360.

Oh and, its possibly one of the best looking games I have ever played in my life.

 

[Masiah]

Since when DotA is considered "decent"?

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

Don't you even dare to start "DotA conversation" in here >_>

Edit: o_o

 

[Steel_Stallion]

Since when DotA is considered "decent"?

Since everyone plays it, and no one would play it if it was "bad"

 

[LordDz]

I'll break the offtopic and get back to the thread:

1. Starcraft2a, Starcraft2b and Starcraft2c.
2. Dunno.

 

[Gilles]

Dow 2 is just looking better and better. I'm pumped.


<------- Look at that shit!!

 

[The_wand_mirror]

My list has changed.

1 - Diablo 3
2 - Left 4 Dead
3 - Red Faction 3

=D

 

[brad.dude03]

Damn right it has! Left 4 Dead ftw!

 

[Gilles]

Not a horror/zombie game fan.
Haven't tried Gears 2 yet, anyone else tried it? You must have brad!

 

[Steel_Stallion]

I feel so fucking invisible...

Come on, it's like 5 posts up..

As has been said, it's total sex.

[Steel_Stallion]

After playing multiplayer for a bit, I can say its great. It doesn't really feel different from Gears 1 multiplayer, it just feels refined.

Really, really refined. There are some cool environment hazards and events, like in Avalanche, the map shifts and changes completely once an avalanche occurs and flattens the landscape. Another map has razor hail suddenly raining down, shredding anyone in the outdoors to bits. Day one (The city map) has a big hole in the center, if you come close a Corpser will come and fuckin' rape u. It's really fun cornering enemies to that hole. Hahaha


Out of the team based modes, Submission (Or "Meatflag) is the best. It's basically capture the flag, except that the flag is an AI controlled human with a shotgun. And he usually gets more kills than players which is hilarious, you have to shoot him down and then drag him back to your base kicking and screaming.

It's pretty awesome.

Oh and Horde mode is one of the best Multiplayer modes in any game. I could not pass level 43 (out of 50) on Normal difficulty. Imagine trying to play the game on Hardcore, or Insane (Holy fuck, good luck.)

One thing I hate is the gay and homosexual Matchmaking system. Why do people think it is a good idea to put a fucking Matchmaking system in just because Halo 3 has one?

It sucks fucking balls, and the old Gears of war 1 multiplayer lobby was twenty times better than this match making system.

First off, I like choosing the games I see hosted (For my preference of map and game mode) and I also like checking the Green bars on the right to see ping (So I can join the games with least lag possible).

Now its just some matchmaking bullshit that takes me twice as long as gears of war 1.

Luckily, games usually take longer to finish in Gears 2 and are much more fun. I guess its fine, but I really would have preffered the old system. This one will do though

Forgot to mention, most Gears of war 1 veterns will skip training grounds, but it is really useful for people who have not played Gears multiplayer yet to get themselves used to the basics. It's like an extended tutorial for multiplayer where you play with bots.

It's also fun to play with bots, good practice and an Ok alternative if you can't play online. It's also a good alternative if you want to play split screen against your friend (4 bots and your friend on one team, 4 bots and you on the other. Or you can both play cooperatively against the bots)

Me and my friends tried playing 5 bots versus us 2 on the hardest bot difficulty.

The bot AI is just (if not more) as smart as the enemies in the campaign, which is really great.

 

[firedrake2222]

Damn right it has! Left 4 Dead ftw!

*Mouth waters* I can't wait to get L4D!

The thing is its made by Valve (people who are doing Half-Life), and the zombies in HL sometimes made me laugh....they just move so slow and make stupid noises! :O

 

[brad.dude03]

Status: Waiting 4 Tuesday

Damn right you are!

And the zombies in Half Life 1) Are not stupid, the fast moving ones will rape your face if you don't pay attention 2) Are filled with headcrabs, which are a bitch 3) Left 4 Dead zombies are absolutely nothing like Half Life zombies.

Sure, they wander aimlessly, but the second you start shooting, they freak right the fuck out and charge at you. It's scary as hell.

Also: POST COUNT NOW OVER NINE THOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNDDDDD!111!

 

[Gilles]

I said I wasn't a fan of zombie games. Well damn, this game does look pretty win. Also my friend played the demo, and loved it, which settles it for me. I'll be getting this game.

 

[thegreatsmite]

Left 4 dead is so fun!!!! but there are only 4 levels..


anyone here played cod5 pc yet?

 

[brad.dude03]

Damn right you will! It's the best zombie game since Zombies Ate My Neighbours

 

[Gilles]

anyone here played cod5 pc yet?

Eww, no.

 

[firedrake2222]

Left 4 dead is so fun!!!! but there are only 4 levels..

Its cause the enemies are randomly generated by the AI Director
And prehaps to cut the budgeting costs hehe

Sure, they wander aimlessly, but the second you start shooting, they freak right the fuck out and charge at you. It's scary as hell.

I WANT IT! XD

 

[brad.dude03]

Eww, no.

Agreed. WWII games are overrated as hell.

 

[Gilles]

Agreed. WWII games are overrated as hell.

They were fun back during the days of CoD and the first couple MoH.
