The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames)

Fuck, I wonder if FEAR on the Xbox 360 was neutered some how, because the PC version (just from a game play/shooting point of view) is probably top 10 first person shooter of all time.

I had last week free and decided to try to stop sucking at CS:GO, I watched many videos in YouTube and put around 15 hours on the game and went from being killed in the first 15 seconds to always ending up in the top 5 of my group. The game is complex and the people are way too good, but once you get better you start to get the appeal and it becomes fun and addictive.

P.S. The best is seeing how you get one million FPS. And my hardware is not even that good (R5 2400G + RX570).

Hell yeah. After so many decades The Bill finally beat the original NES Castlevania... and I hear-by announce by retirement from ever playing it again. Original G? No! Pure God.

Also beat FEAR.

Want to feel dread and incompetence? I guess I do. Started Condemned Criminal Origins. Headphones are a must.

oof. that fucker takes balls mate. well done

Fuck the birds that drop the fleamen and double fuck the Grim Reaper. I definitely played better than when I did as a kid. Patience and better pattern recognition. I think beating Castlevania 2,3,4, Rondo, and SOTN so many months ago leveled me up.

I came in 2nd Place in Tetris 99 for about the 10th time. I've still never come in 1st. I did get 1st Place in Super Mario Bros. 35 last week, but that didn't feel like much of an accomplishment.

So sad that new DOOM Eternal DLC came out today and I just don’t care. So many aspects of the game were cool but just too much arena combat, too much 90’s Image Comics type story telling and design. And I truly hate the ammo/health/armor gameplay. Loathe the platforming. I don’t know it’s too far removed from Doom 1993-2016 that it’s not DOOM, but some other modern FPS. I should really replay the original 2 via Brutal Doom to completion.

You gotta get your shit together if you want to be a true Tetris Maximus stud.

Time to stop being a Tetris kid, and start acting like a Tetris man!

I pulled the trigger on a v1 (moddable) Switch... also buying a new midrange PC. The one I have now was built in 2010. About to choke down an entire decade of gaming innovations. I don't think I'm gonna get much work done inbetween now and 2021.
