[August] What Video Games you playing??

[Stormfalcon]

The arcade gives an even better feel for what the games like.

True, assuming you have a decent arcade nearby. Some of us don't, or at least the decent ones are way out of the way.

He can be pretty dangerous in the hands of a good player.

Very true.

 

[Green Knight]

Donkey Kong
Galaga
Pac Man

Yes, I know they're old. But I can't afford a Playstation or a Gamecube or any of that, and I can play those on the computer.

 

[The Forsaken One]

GameCube = Metroid Prime, Resident Evil's and alot of SSBM with friends

PC = Starcraft (Played it as a Progamer for 2.5 years and I keep finding myself playing it again accounts: Voltage- and Forsaken~[TUW] on europe server.)

And Warcraft 3 - The Frozen Throne.

But that game sucks a bit, nothing really fancy. Starcraft beats it hands down.

Starcraft is one of the few games I can return to, again and again, even years later. Proof positive that making something 3D doesn't immediately translate into a better game. SC has the mark of a game that isn't as dependent on technology.

He can be pretty dangerous in the hands of a good player.

You have a gift for understatement...

For the record, the normal difficulty level in the Japanese GC version is a complete pushover. However, every subsequent difficulty level is harder than the corresposnding levels in SC1.

And I'm playing Hot Shots Golf3 and Virtua Fighter Evo on my PS2 [I loves me some AAA titles for $20 and under].

Hey, and does anyone here have any experience with buying a used XBox? They're going for 139.95 at my local Gamestop, [obliagatory Star Wars paraphrase]and the desire to play Knights of the Old Republic is strong in this one.[/paraphrase]

 

[Lazybones]

Neverwinter Nights (1 campaign as DM, two as a player), and Battlefield 1942. Looking ahead to this fall, looks like a slew of great PC titles, including Halo, Jedi Academy, Half-Life 2, ToEE, Tron 2.0, Deus Ex 2, and the second NWN expansion.

 

[Tewligan]

I just picked up Silent Hill 3 today on one of my periodic Best Buy rampages. Yowza, that's creepy! I'll be crying like an 8 year old girl before I finish it, I wager. In the very first area, I had the character constantly spinning around like a deranged ballerina to make sure those horrible rabbitmen weren't going to spring on me or something. So far, much scarier than any of the Resident Evil games.

True, assuming you have a decent arcade nearby. Some of us don't, or at least the decent ones are way out of the way.

Decent arcade, what's that?

The mall that has the SC2 machines is half an hour away from where I live, and most of that's on the highway.

 

[Hopping Vampire]

Shining Force 2 or the Sega Genesis
Shining Force CD on the Sega CD
Langrisser 2 on Genesis
Tactics ogre on GBA

 

[Zulithe]

Final Fantasy IX for the second time. Haven't played it since the first time I beat it a couple years ago.

Also, Lufia: The Ruins Of Lore on GBA
