Zaid's idea of the perfect RPG is Final Fantasy 7

it's apparent

[atmuh]

[prophetik music]

gamestop tries to sell that to me every time i go in, and every time i go in i just buy something off the used and discount rack. maybe they'll get the hint eventually...

Case in point: Lost Odysessey or whatever.

You really need to stop doing things that clearly aren't your cup of tea.

I gave LO a fair chance and it's boring characters, and god-awful storytelling fall flat on it's face.

If your so immortal, why the fuck is there a game over screen.

Geometry Wars 2 is so fun. I got 34th place on Pacfism today, heh.

I tried the demo, it seemed a lot easier than the first one.

But not different enough.

1942 however...

FF7 is a damn good game.

Yes it's over rated, and they took the series too far, but you cannot argue it is a good rpg.

Edit:Oh hey, a double post... This is the first time using tabs to post has turned out bad for me. O_o

You only got to try 1 mode though, which only lasts a few mins

And 1942's menu is sooooo annoying. Every time you select something *LOUD PLANES FLYING*.

I think it's plenty different enough thanks to all the modes the first game should've had. The first game was spartan. It was just the core game. Now it has multiplayer mode (still needs to be live) and a ton of modes. Also, the 1080p definition is insane. I can barely even make out the tiny pixels the game uses. Rarely you see that in videogames.

I was a little annoyed by that too, but I like the game enough to overlook that detail. Until they release "The Raiden Project" at least. But I won't buy it until I have my own xbox.

I will say, it looked really sharp, and was a lot more fun that the first one. But I just can't justify buying the sequel when the original is so similar. That and I suck at the original. I think I'll stick to lumines for now.

Yeah, I think the optimal mileage of Geometry Wars is for those who can make it past 5 minutes without getting slaughtered.

Sometimes you don't last long, but then sometimes you get that awesome run that lands you a really good score. Then you just want to keep on trying again and again....and again...

[anosou]

I didn't even know GW2 was out gotta get me some of that action!

..just one more SC4 match.

[prophetik music]

i dunno, with all these great real games coming out i can't find time to play any XBLA games.

[atmuh]

i dunno how you can say that everything is boring except uno

[Bigfoot]

Good thing I got uno for FREE, and I don't even play it. lol

[atmuh]

lets play it sometime i love it

[Toadofsky]

I did have one, but I traded it in. I bought for 200 dollars from a friend. It was in good shape, but I just don't have the time to keep track of two game systems. Sounds ridiculous, I know. There are plenty of cool games on 360, and I can't wait to try some of the games coming out (my future roommate has one), like Mirror's Edge, Portal: Still Alive, and a few others. But I couldn't afford 60 dollar games everytime one came out, that, and it was starting to lock up for NO REASON. I wouldn't even play it for 15 minutes and it would lock up. I'm not trying to knock the system down, I know how that may sound to some. But I'm content with my Nintendo Wii and DS. Can't wait for Wario Land Shake and Kirby Super Star Deluxe on those. Sorry, I've got a knack for getting off topic on these forums.

[atmuh]

what an excellent post for 360 info!

And here I am playing Sneak king...

[I-n-j-i-n]

Maybe that's why the console was a $200 leftover.. Really, you can't take chances on resale like that.

yeah, you've gotta make sure it's been to m$ and back or else it won't have the firmware update...makes a big difference on long play times on keeping the heat down.

Question: if you make a high score in Geometry Wars 2 when you are not online, does it record the score to the leaderboards the next time you sign on, or was all that work for nought?

I really don't want to pay $99 for that damn wireless adapter, and I also really don't want to run net cable down a floor.

If you have a GameCrazy or GameStop near you, I guarantee they'll have a used one for 60 bucks. Well I can't guarantee, but the GameStop I went to had like 6 used wireless adapters for 60 bucks. Works like a charm. (Still it's 60 bucks. Then again it's not 100.)
