Video Games Thread

Greetings all,
Now there’s a music, jokes, photo, philosophy, movie and poetry topic, so here comes mine, the GAME topic!

My favourite game is a fantastic game from 1997, Final Fantasy VII. Graphic might be ■■■■ compared to todays games, but it’s not the graphic that makes the game. Final Fantasy VII has many mysteries, every character has its own story and background. Yet after playing it a hundred times, you still can’t be sure about everything.

Cheers,

It’s difficult for me to choose the top (like asking me my most fav song - never a definite answer), but don’t say the graphics are ■■■■ (I haven’t played games nowadays so can’t comment on that). I remember when the promo disc came out for FF7 and they were ground-breaking! It’s not my fav FF, but I think I’ve spent the most time playing it. If had to choose of the FF’s, it would be FFX even though I’ve only played in 3 days.

I said compared to todays games, but it was awesome when it came out, but that’s 10 years ago, tho I think you have to compare the graphic to what they were able to do back then, as you can’t compare, for example, Super Mario Bros.(NES) with some new PS3/XBOX 360 game.

It can be hard to know what the era of x game is like, especially when dealing with youngsters who didn’t grow up during that era. For example, during the golden SNES rpg times, Chrono Trigger was my fav.

*TEKKEN Series
*The King of Fighters Series
*Street Fighter Series
*Suikoden I & II
*Final Fantasy Tactics (PSOne)
*Breath of Fire Series
*Zelda Series
*Castlevania Series (especially Symphony of the night)
*Warcraft Series
*Starcraft Series
*Diablo Series
*Caesar III
*World of Warcraft
*Final Fantasy Series (XII is the easiest & simplest FF/RPG ever made!!)
*Need for Speed Series
*Romance of The Three Kingdoms Series (especially #3)
*Chrono Trigger

…and lots more…

But mostly, I’ve spent my day with Warcraft III & TEKKEN 3 or 5.
…beating a virtual character to death with Jin Kazama, can be a stress release for me…

You should try FF-XII.
The graphics is just AMAZING (yes, with capital letters), and the gameplay is quite fun while the stories is not bad either.

AoW Shadow Magic
Any of the Civ games too :slight_smile:

i forgot to mention these :
DEVIL MAY CRY 1,2,3

Well Favorite PC game use to be Halo. yes i know made by microsoft and not that great of a game. But it was my first real PC game :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: i played it for HOURS!!!. But now i would have to say favorite PC game is War Rock. I play some PS2 but i don’t have any favs on it.

Leo, that’s not a game. We don’t need to see the back of your head, thanks.

How do you know it’s not my hairless knee! :smiley:

there is to many games to say what is good and wat is not.
i mean to all of you gamers out there who love to play games, you will knw wat im bout to say is true.
when u go out to buy a game and u have spent £20-£40 on a game you cant help but want to play it.

bout halfway onto a game you start to realise that the game is the same the hole way thro but just in diffrent scenes. what is hard to see unless you step back and say hold i done this bofore. just like all if the need for speed stuff. you drive a car buy a car upgrade a car, and then boom oh look what i have just done. the same thing for bout an hour n a bit.

the only game wat i have found to be a sussefull game by changeing things is oblivion only beacuse it has so many directions in the game you could take its crazy!

sigh i’m bored 88)
all i do everyday afterwork is watch “boston legal”-play 2 missions of “Devil May Cry 4”-continue watch “boston legal”-play 1 mission of DMC4 and then go to bed 88)
is there any interesting game for me to play? suggestion?anyone?
i’m still saving my money for PS3 (just a little bit more :slight_smile: ), but now i have to play on my PC since there’s not much new good PS2 games around anymore.
sigh almost all PC games are shooting games, and i always become the one getting shot 88)
life’s so hard 88)

oh no online gaming for me :stuck_out_tongue: first, i got this stupid mouter. second, i like an individual game, no need interaction with other ppl, even on fighting game, i only play by myself to unlock secret characters.friends are needed when you want to copy their memorycard/gamesaves ;D

This was also a favourite game of mine until I recently discovered a game called The Elder Scrolls Oblivion. This game beats all rpg’s that I have ever come across thus far and I recommend you try this game seeing that you are a rpg fan. It has alot of graphics though so if you have a video card lower than 256mb I dont think it would be advised.
