Morning Discussion

So who is glad to see Friday? Yeah me too. So what do you guys think of these statements made by Red Octane about guitar controllers? Sure there's a quality issue with Rock Band hardware for now, but is the situation permanent? Also, Beats is now available for PSP Download, which is neat to see Sony doing. At $5 it seems pretty tempting to see how it would treat some Daft Punk.

So what's everyone playing for the weekend? Post it in this thread, and I'll toss out a set of BioShock theme and gamer picture pack for 360 to someone at random.

      Rock Band. And then more Rock Band. Might try to finish Mass Effect if I can stop playing Rock Band.

      I finally graduated up to Hard difficulty on the guitar. Made the game fun again.

      Probably some old adventure game. Maybe The Longest Journey, if I can borrow it from my brother. Or Planescape: Torment. I've been chomping at the bit for an adventure game, but I can't buy the newest Phoenix Wright because it's on my Christmas list.

        The Longest Journey was such a good game, even if some of the early puzzles made very little sense.

          December 7, 2007 6:09 AM

          How long is the game? I've heard that Planescape is really quite long, so I'm leaning towards playing The Longest Journey first.

            December 7, 2007 6:22 AM

            From what I remember, it's pretty long if you're not sure what to do next. I was quite enthralled with the story, though, so it didn't feel like a grind or anything.

        I quite enjoyed it on 360 as a kind of b-grade western, be sure to try the bonus missions as they were more fun than the actual game I thought as they involved more shooting and "heist" style play than the story. The load and save times on the PC were appalling, has that carried over to the steam release?

      Is anyone playing this online? It's a pity no one is (or does GoW multiplayer suck?;) I was hyped for UT 3 and yet GoW has been more satisfying.

The best of genre combat in HL2 makes ME's clumsy combat system feel really lame and the dialog heavy open ended game play of ME makes H2 feel like it's on rails. So i figured i better play them one at the time.

      EVE, Pirates of the Burning Sea and I think I'm going to finally finish the Witcher.

      unreal 2. I had it before, on my old pc, but at 640x480 it wouldn't run at more than 2 FPS as soon as there was any kind of particle effect on screen so I sold it on ebay and recently bought a new copy of it from my local grocery store, which has like ten or so really cheap pc games on a shelf in the back, which is fucking weird but awesome. I got, besides unreal 2, max payne 2 (same story as with u2), splinter cell CT and jade empire special edition from there over the last few weeks.

      TF2 and the some Mario galaxy along with some Resident Evil UC. Decided not to buy any more games until I finish some of my current ones.
