This is a thread devoted entirely to discussing games. Talk about what you're playing, what you're looking forward to, complaints about gaming (No console flaming. I don't mind if you have a valid complaint though, but watch the way you choose to go about complaining), and any other gaming related subject you can think of. Some people have taken to posting reviews or stories in the other topic as well for me to use in 2.5D.
This isn't a general conversation topic, you've got the pub, and Hey Maestro for that. Think of it as more of a daily gaming journal.
-Anyways, I decided to play some more COD4 online on the PC yesterday. I really can't say that I like it any better. I still find the perks to be really cheap additions to the online play. I was at my friend's house this weekend watching his little bro play the 360 version, and I found a mode I liked. It's not in the PC version, but I really found the oldschool mode to be fun. Sure, people can collect the perks via powerups in that mode too, but you start out on equal ground, and that makes it more fun.
I only watched him play that mode for one round. He took fourth place, then he let me play the next round, and I took third which isn't bad considering it was my first time playing the 360 version.
-I also decided to crack out some Syphon Filter 3 yesterday. I just had the sudden urge to play a Syphon filer game, so I grabbed the third one. It was kinda like the PS1's last big hoorah, because it was the last truely blockbuster type of game that hit that system. It didn't get as good as deserved reviews at the time, because it was "More of the same." according to the reviewers (the same reviewers that gave ever damn RE game glaring reviews even though they were all the same as well). Plus the PS2 was already out and going strong at the time, so they probably took off points because it was a last gen game.
