2 consoles and bored.
« Reply #15 on: May 14, 2002, 03:11:51 AM »
I really don\'t have much time to game anymore now that I\'m working about 80 hours a week + depending.. but I have gotten up to the last 5 rooms of the 6th Scenario in Wolfenstein3D for the GBA. It\'s kept me pretty entertained so far.. coincidentally enough.. I\'ll probably have it finished on the same day I get my next paycheck. >:)

And speaking of GBA.. with everyone knowing how big of an adventure game freak I am, how come noone ever mentioned Broken Sword???? Argh.. that\'s my next one dammit. Even if I have to go without sleep one of these days and drive to Indianapolis to find it!!!

Yeah, yeah.. I\'m sure alotta people here don\'t think it\'s very good. I still play Martian Memorandum and Countdown. So bite me! Wonder if this will garner interest for other adventure games to be released on GBA? Legend of Kyrandia.. Indiana Jones.. Monkey Island.. Leisure Suit Larry (in your dreams).. Gabriel Knight...

Ooohhh.. the possibilities!

QuDDus, I had the same problem not so long ago.  I felt that there was nothing worth while coming on to the consoles and everything that was being released was very un-original.

I then bought myself a 8 bit and 16 bit console (seeing that the prices you pay for the games are very cheap).  I now have 4 consoles to play from and, believe me, when playing the 8 bir or 16 bit games again you realise how much has changed and what we take for granted.  After playing a good few weeks of 8 bit I played my PS2 again and it felt like the first time that I saw PS2 graphics....amazed :eek:

Try it;)

Broken Swords a great game. I started of playing the first part on PC and eventually got the second part on PSX. Part one is really great, although I recommend it on PC (since on PSX the loading times are a bit slow and using a controller sucks). Part 2 is okay, not bad - but not as good as the first part. Broken Sword is definately a great game though and I can\'t wait for the next part to come! :bounce:

Sounds just the same as me, i haven\'t played my PS2 or Xbox in months, and i don\'t think i will for a long time yet, until the games become more online.
The only game i am playing at the mo is RE for GC and that only gets 20-30 mins because i really don\'t like the GC controller, it just doesn\'t feel natural.
I just can\'t stop playing Medal of honor online and Counter strike, they are just to good, there is just something about playing another human online.

remember Quddus, dont rule out old PS2 games such as Red Faction, which despite its flaws is a great FPS (on par with Half-Life IMO)

also have you played games like Baldur\'s Gate: Dark Alliance, another high quality game.. really doesnt seem like you\'ve played "all" the good games out right now

if you have played those though.. then.. great  :)

8 consoles (+PC) and bored. Well, not bored, I just don\'t play as much now as I usually do. The only game I\'ve played recently is FFVII (oh yeah, and SoulReaver2, that took one day to finish). I wonder if I\'ll break 1000 hours with the game... :p

I\'d get a truckload of games if it wasn\'t for financial reasons...

Can\'t say I agree. Bewteen RE on my GC (unlocking everything) , VF4 on the PS2 (Kumite mode) and pretty soon the new CastleVania for the GBA, my gaming needs are completely satisfied. As for my XBox, well, it hasn\'t been touched in along time.
