One of those games.

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

I loved Tachyon: teh fringe! What are you talking about!

Age of Empires was great fun at first. Then I got Age of Empires 2 and 1 just looked cr*p. I can't even win without those laser troopers.

Ok maybe because I am just burned out on the game but Battle Field 1942. The guys at work have been staying late and playing it 2 or 3 times a week. The game was fun and (internet) online rocked, but now other then the satisfaction of sneaking up and sticking a knife into your co-works I am getting very tired of it. And why in the world do they all want to be snipers in the game? They don't know the good hiding places and then just sit in the same place and snipe without a thought of stealth or concelment. So I spend the game slipping around the sides and waiting for them at their favorite sniping location or dropping bombs on them.

DF2
C & C: Red Alert

and I hate to say this but...

Freelancer.

I'm really off the game at the moment...I played it to death and now it just bugs the hell out of me. Its going to be a long time before I can play it again with vigour.

I only replay/reinstall games whoch i really like. The ones I dislike won't be on my HD or my CD-Rom tray.

To be honest, and don't flame me, I replayed Half Life and it kind of dissapointed me. Yeah I know, it's like digital blasphemy but it's true.

Oh great Valve, please give us HL 2!

I think I know what wiz is talking about, I had about the same between GTA III and GTA: VC, after I played and accustomized to VC and its capabilities, I reinstalled GTA III, and was shocked at what I saw, a very low degree of detail, cars are easier to damage and the game generally has less capabilities then VC, but that doesn't make the gameplay value less, although I found the controls a tad shoddy after a long while of the seemable finesse in controls of VC, and the sounds were far less detailed then in GTA: VC.

The Control Problem: In VC I could do a 180 Turn without breaking a sweat (first try at it that is), but as the finesse in controls in GTA III are a little bit cruder in set-up, I was bumpsing and burning car after car in GTA III whilst trying to get the old manouver under my fingers again.

tis just the difference in engine is all that tells it, Im sure that when I buy Half Life now, Im going to get shocked with the "antiquety" in Graphics, and sounds, but fortunately that ain't all....

Red Alert II:
Naturally expected it to be decent, since the command&conquer series did so well but, much to my surprise...
boring, repetitive, and as i discovered after a few days, horrendous plotline.....

Speaking of which...I seem to be the only person on earth who factors plot quality into video games... come on people, back me up!
