Have beat my high score in Solitaire too many times, but I've recently discovered OpenOffice Calc, it's a horizontal/vertical scroller that lets you design your own maps for Arkanoid 1&2. Also, if I set out 7 columns and label them Monday to Sunday, then do each column a different colour, it breaks the week up a bit. stoned.gif

mostly been playing 'H.A.W.X' and 'Resident Evil 5' lately,
RE5 is stunning visually but the controls take abit of getting used too, HAWX is class though, im loving playing that at the moment smoke.gif

@ pierre - your simply talking bollocks dude, some people dont want the hassle of pc gaming and all the shit that comes with it - thats why we use consoles, they are more convenient smile.gif

PC or console, they don't half churn out some really shite games for all of them. lol.gif

Bought Dawn of War 2 yesterday - twice lol.gif - first time was out of Cex, 2nd hand, saving a tenner I thought, took it home, went to install it, only to find that it was a Steam game and whoever had bought it originally had activated it and still had it on their own Steam account, so back into town, quick explanation, refund, over to Game, bought the full price version, took it home, installed it, only to discover that my graphics card (Ati X800 pro) doesn't support Shade Model 3.0, so contacted a mate and got my old GT6800 back off him, had to swap the entire kit out to a new case in the end, finally got it installed, only to find it runs like a three-legged pig on my minimum spec machine, glitching/clipping everywhere. Been looking forward to it for ages too, time to upgrade methinks. sad.gif

My rig is still fucked so no gaming for parka. I would be playing DoW2 and Total war Empire :'(

Been mostly playing recently:

Streetfighter 4 on 360- good fun for a week
Killzone 2 on ps3- mediocre to pretty good
Empire Total War on pc- just bought it, seems good

I would still rather play CS on the pc tbh. Although it's been nice to dust off the ps3 and get at least abit of use out of it.

I've been pulling 10hr shifts on Fallout 3 for the past week on my PS3 lol.gif

dont get too excited dude, ive got it already, had it over a week now so given it a good play - its shite tbh
visually its stunning, absolutely great on the eye but everything else about it is dogturd, smile.gif
for example you are running along and you wanna chop a zombies head off or shoot at them but the second you do that on RE5 your character just stands still so theres no runner-gunnering or anything like that sad.gif
so basically its got not much playability and the controls are just shite too, theres just not enough there to make me wanna play RE% over other games sad.gif

just a heads up bro smoke.gif

This week I have mostly been playing Dead Space on my PC - enjoyed it, too. guitar.gif

It's quite a lot like being a (mainly) solo character in your very own Alien film. fear.gif

Am currently playing it through a second time, as completing it the first time unlocks new equipment and bits of the back-story etc. - you also get to keep all the items and equipment that you were left with at the end of the first playthrough to use in the second. thumbsup.gif

Next week, I reckon I will be mostly seeing if I like Mass Effect.

I'll take your dog turd and raise you dog's bollocks. I'm shocked you prefer HAWX to it. HAWX is okay but at only level 7 i'll not comment further.
I've recommended loads of games to you that you condemn without giving a chance. Is it zombies you have a problem with in particular as you said left4dead and fallout 3 were shit too (you didn't even get out of vault 101 FFS, and still said it was shit unsure.gif ).
Your point on 'run and gun' is silly at best. Can you imagine trying to "run and gun' with a rocket launcher, grenade launcher or desert eagle (fucking recoil will have you on the floor unless you're Popeye- lucky for Chris Redfield, he's been on the 'green herb' too) - you'd end up hitting nothing except, perhaps, yourself russian.gif . You even get chance to dodge almost all melee attacks, so whats the need? I think you've been playing too many FPS games.
Also, why would you run up to someone and shoot them in the head? Are you training for an armed response unit? doh.gif

I've been playing RE5 for well over 30 hours in the last week (completed on normal) and i love it. It's very similar to Res4 in style and gameplay, the controls are practically the same as all the other res games. There's lots of secrets, infinite ammo modes, an extra difficulty setting after you complete on veteran by the sounds of it too. Plus there's Mercenaries again, which is always good. Replayability is top notch and the online mode brings a much needed multiplayer aspect to the series (although i obviously haven't played it due to fear of getting my 360 banned). I can see this being a great mode though, as my only gripe is that the AI isn't scripted too well - perhaps this'll be sorted with an update.
This game completes the RE storyline and is not just recommended but essential for any fan of the series.

Scribs, have you played KOTOR? if so, mass effect will be right up your street. the prequel book is essential reading for back story. cheap on amazon. There's also another book that's the sequel for the next ME game due late this year/early next. I'd recommend playing a character with some biotic ability as playing as a soldier doesn't really allow many tactical battles, rather shoot first ask later, gameplay.
Dead space is a great game though - i'll definetly be giving it another go soon.
The Major
This week i have been playing Tom Clancy`s Hawx.

This arcade flight game has the best visuals i have seen on any Flight Sim. The citys look amazing. Stunning.

Though i must stress its no Flight Simulation.

There is no take off and landings. You start in the air and finish there.

This aside, Its no flight simulator more an enjoyable flight shoot em up.

The aircraft models look good, though i have seen better, In Hawx bomb bays and things like that dont open like Air Combat 5. I felt a little let down by this as they feel rushed into production.

Also the flight geeks might notice its not a Mig-25 as stated but the Mig-31. geek.gif Again maybe there research was rushed.

Over all i would give Hawx 6 outa 10.

Im dissaponted t hear a bad review of RES 5. I was going to get it tommorow. Now i dont know.

Yeah - I liked KOTOR a lot - it was quite a long time that I played it through, I think that it might be due a dust-off and a replay. thumbsup.gif

Must say that in general I've never been the biggest fan of turn-based strategy games, but I really enjoyed KOTOR. I'll look forwards to giving Mass Effect a spin, I think - thanks for the playtips. wink1.gif

i played fallout 3 again the other day and got out of the vault and it was still boring as shit, and left for dead was shit beyond belief thats why hardly anyone still plays it, i guarantee thats what will happen with RE5 too
Also yeah i prefer fps, so what? better than some boring old shitty zombie 3rd person shooter with no playability
so are you saying when someone shoots at you, you would stand still? thats what happens on RE5

At the end of the day bro we just like different types of games

HAWX is still better tongue.gif

e2a - your probably right on me not liking zombie games as it goes, they are tired now like ww2 games imo smile.gif
SkullDuggery
friend of mine just got RE5, only had a very quick blast but gotta say did not do anything for me.

controls do feel quite disjointed and the stopping to shoot is fuckin awful


gotta disagree on fallout tho scar, really enjoy it myself but different folks and all that


Scarface, you suffer from the same problem as me, cod4 syndrome. Ever since it came out there's so many games i just can't get into cos the controls feel so shite after cod

no problem. KOTOR was a great game and my fingers are crossed for The Old Republic MMO being better. Bioware are putting an immense amount of story into it although the graphics look a bit shady.

You're guarantee isn't worth the electrons it's written with. At least give me a timeframe so I can put some money on it.

Brum, Scar, have you guys played RE before? The controls are almost exactly the same as the other RE games. You've only had over a decade to get used to it.

Squaggles- that's a hard choice. I like a good geek-fest so it's Mass Effect for it's 'space opera' setting for me. I reckon FO3 would appeal to more people though. Don't believe Scarface if he tells you HAWX is better than Fallout. shock.gif

Only played Fallout 3 and Dead Space. Its a hard one but i would go with Fallout 3. Although they a both great games.

@solidox - i bet within a month from tomorrow theres a massive dip in gamers playing that, its just too annoying to put any hard time into
its been overhyped and is gonna be a let down for many, i know it was for me smoke.gif

There's always dips after a few days, a week, a month, etc wouldn't surprise me that there's more people who don't like it for obscure reasons. Overhyped? didn't you say the same about GTA4? You want a letdown? Play Age Of Conan - then you'll know letdowns bud. I've felt that way about a lot of games recently too but RE5 isn't one of them.
If Alan Wake and FF13 weren't due out this year I'd bet RE5 would have got a few GOTY awards. Saying that, it is more of the same formula, but that formula sells. It gets great reviews. It's fun.
Too annoying to put time in? it's not out yet and i'm over 30 hours. fun hours to annoyed hours? 30-0.

Just ordered a copy of Res 5. I pick it up tommorow.

I picked up a pre owned copy of Shellshock 2 Blood Trials. for £10. !

Also i did a trade in for Res 5 and got it for £15. Bonus smile.gif

anyone played the ninja blade demo on the 360? i can't wait for that to get released.
theres not many games that make the hairs stand up on the back of my neck but it is frankly awesome. i've played it about 5 times already.

the watchmen arcade demo is also worth a download

yeah i did say that about GTA4 lol.gif it was a letdown, i was expecting so much more from that too smile.gif but i think tbh im just not into that sort of game, the grand theft format is another gametype i feel is getting old now, the novelty of beating up hookers and robbing them on a game got boring after i hit the age of about 16
the best thing about RE5 without a doubt is the cutscenes, and if it wasnt for that one thing (turning into a statue when you use a weapon) id probably like it, but that 1 problem is such a huge one it makes the game unenjoyable, i wanna be able to run or at least walk slowly when im pulling the trigger or slicing, not be stuck there like a statue
I just feel the game has so much potential and its not being used
also you cant no-scope, if you try to it just moves your player untill he is pointing at his female companion - i wanna no-scope god damn it lol.gif

Yes i've played RE before but not for a good couple of years. TBH i didn't remeber the earlier one's being so stop and shoot but i suppose expectations change as technology and general standards improve.

A decade to get used to it? Maybe so but you know what they say, if it aint broke, don't fix it. If it is, ffs do something about it.

I've really not played RE5 enough to codemn it or otherwise, but on initial impressions it just didn't feel fluid.

Finished Res5 last night, it's a 2/10 at best, doubt it'll get played again. sad.gif

Grimweeder
got the demo of RES 5 kinda want the og game but now im not sure from wot u guys say,
ive been hooked on fallout 3 for fuckin months i cant stop playin it. i even completed it once an wasnt happy with wot i acheived so went back an am now doin it again an its jus as good as the first time but better cos i know wot im doin now
also thinkin of the new street fighter game anyone played or got it, gotta get it as its a classic game an now in hd, i spose the same could be said for RES5 tho
scarface
been playing a couple of older games the last few days - forza2 and cod4
just got dead space though so gonna give that a blast today as i havent played it before smoke.gif
