space marine was ph neutral. it was completely worth playing but not worth playing at the same time it was like... "Ehh, got no problems with it, but it's not good enough to keep my attention" Tomb Raider was a cool game and i don't get the negativeness surrounding it but maybe that's because i like never died

i thought some of the tomb raider deaths got a little torture porn-y it was kind weird how long they lingered on the deaths in a game where horror/gore wasn't the idea

the sad part is that knowing about it getting a little like that made me know the rebar thing was going to get cauterized at some point because that's the only way to treat wounds in games

I like Sonic 3d Blast on the Genesis. It's a terrible sequel for a Sonic game and it looks like a token low effort response to stuff like DKC and MarioRPG, but its a surprisingly decent sequel for Flicky, the music was pretty good and I'm a sucker for isometric games.

Resident Evil 6 plays really well once you understand the controls but then at the same time the level design is awful Still had a lot of fun playing it co-op and it was worth the purchase for the Mercenaries mode alone.

the controls are bonkers. Can you even roll on a 360 controller?

Great Joe posted:lol look at this dork, i bet he thinks all car games play like gran turismo I like Gran Turismo almost as much as I like Ridge 7 so I'd be completely fine with it if all these games ostensibly moving in a more realistic direction actually ended up feeling like Gran Turismo but they invariably end up blending the worst of both worlds. Like all the Criterion NFSen have this weight to the cars and you can't do ludicrous Burnout Paradise drifts anymore (boo!) but at the same time there's not enough serious sim in there to really make driving around without the arcade excesses very nuanced or interesting. And every Codemasters sim-lite has cars that can spin out but there's not enough feedback and the physics aren't terribly consistent so you've got to use an external cam and just look at what the car is doing in order to catch it in time.

Is the new Tomb Raider the game everyone said was really misogynistic until it came out that it was written by a woman and then everything got really awkward?

The game does really wanna show you Lara writhing in pain a lot.

That one death where she's impaled through the neck, there's no visible wound. All they did was take the model and just jam another polygon through it and everything else is screen effects and sound effects to make it appear more gory than it really is. There's really no mortal kombat style deaths or anything. In fact the deaths are less intricate than those of Resident Evil 4(Leon had a decapitation rig and all of Lara's rigs have no parts coming off). They just have really good sound people. Seriously the splats, skull dull thuds and bone crushing sounds are the best I've heard in a game. But the best thing is all the starting enemies are some sort of cult crazies who then slowly get replaced by the stomguard dudes who toss them around like toys.

You're p. cool. I recommend you try out Grid 2, that game was made by the Sega Rally Revo guys and it's got actual nice-feeling drifts.

I played Star Wars Rebellion a lot but that's probably because I didn't know any better (had yet to play Master of Orion or Civ) Also I thought Red Faction Armageddon was decent.

Many years ago, I was staying at a friends house and he started playing a game just so he could show me how terrible it was. That game was Ape Escape 2, and we ended up playing it all night because we both came to the realization that it was actually awesome.

kingdoms of amalur is the blandest piece of poo poo imaginable. it's like a lovecraft entity but instead of insanity you are struck with a very strong sense of boredom and unimpressedness it's not even BAD it's just not good in any way i was trying to play with daggers and doing sicknasty combos and then i switched back to greatsword and noticed every swipe was dealing 2x a dagger combo don't play amalur learn from my mistake

Crewmine posted:Freedom Fighters for PS2 was extremely fun, especially the local multiplayer. i sperged the gently caress out on this game and beat all the difficulties, too bad it was in the pre-cheevo era because id have platted that poo poo or w/e. usually im not very completionist and beating a game at all is still kind of a big deal for me so yeah. too bad they finished it with a really obvious sequel hook and never made one

I DID use the Radd Spencer skin from the outset, though, because I could and it's better. Swinging around is fun as gently caress (great animation) and there are some really beautiful setpieces. Combat is fun enough but secondary.

I played the multiplayer through hamachi once and it's intense as gently caress. best 2,50 i've spent in a long time ----------------
