Whatcha been playing lately?

Post by Worm of Despite »

I used to play nothing but PC games, but lately I've been playing SSX 3, a snowboarding game, on the PS 2. I also have Final Fantasy VI though X to keep me busy, and Final Fantasy Tactics.

Just finished KOTOR last night. Bit peeved, as I thought I'd get to cruise around the galaxy at my leisure after killing Malak. I left quite a few quests undone.

Me and the wife are playing Baldurs Gate 2: Dark Alliance on the XBox.

She enjoys the role playing type games like Baldurs Gate or Gauntlet as long as the mechanics of the game are not too complex.




How much? ;)

Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox.

*muffled frustrated weeping heard*

A certifiably BRILLIANT game.

Also the hardest dang game ever made.

Good luck, fools!!!

Which side did you choose? And did Bastila survive? In your game I mean... I've completed it... but there are several ways you can go...

Yeah, she survived and declared her love for me. I chose the light side, although I got a good ticking off for using Force Persuade too much and threatening to kill the owner of the droid shop on Tatooine.

The end cinematics looked a bit odd, as I'd given Canderous a suit of Mandolorian assault armour, not realising it had a helmet too. It looked like we were being stalked by a vengeful mercenary.

On every Star Wars game I've got, I've always told myself that I'll play through again as the Dark Side. I can never seem to go through with it though (although I often play JK2 online as a darksider).

I might have a try at being a 'grey' Jedi on KOTOR next time. I loved some of the nasty responses you could give to your friends. Like when Carth asks how the final battle went, you can say "Fine, and some help you were!"

If you guys have never played Baldur's Gate II, then I strongly suggest it. Probably the best North American-style RPG.

Also, I've been playing Final Fantasy Tactics lately.

I'm also trying to find my old Super Nintendo and then I'll buy Chrono Trigger. I only rented it once, but it's my favorite game.

I wanted to try an RPG for the PC, because I've never tried one before, so I got Morrowind cheap, and I'm going to see what its like.

That game has a steep learning curve, but once you get over that, it's one of the richest, most addictive games ever. Only reason I stopped playing it was cause there's some glitch in my video card causing the graphics to look crappy, so I'm playing mostly old school RPGs on PlayStation. Still looking for Chrono Trigger.
