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

[Spooky Apparition]

a somewhere-in-the-9s review from a credible reviewer would excite me more about the game than a 10 from greg "dead island is filled with experiences" miller.

...but i already know what to expect from uncharted 3 (exciting campaign to play through once, maybe twice, and oddly-appealing MP/co-op) and don't really care what IGN says.

While we're at it, his only criticism of the game is that "the last few rooms stopped my progress for a while" or somesuch, and he praises the multiplayer because it rewards you even if you suck. x infinity.

I mean, I know my head's not in the right place for this at the moment because of you-know-what-I'm-playing, but fucking seriously.

ahahahah is that the same guy

holy god what a dink

[Spooky Apparition]

unfortunately yes. i'm being honest when i say i clicked the video review, heard that guy talk for 10 seconds and shut it off. don't sully (PUN) whatever goodness uncharted 3 has by letting that dink (good name for him) review it, IGN, you fucks.

I've got Arkham and the rest of Dark Souls to plow through before I even consider U3, there's no rush for me no matter how hyped the scores.

[riley-o]

+skyrim, which for my tastes is looking a billion times more engaging than U3

i'm going to take my time with skyrim though, and not put a full-time job into it like i did with certain other games

Oh totally forgot about Skyrim too. That will defo make its way into the collection before U3 too.

And of course mate, you say that NOW about certain games which rhyme with "stark poles"

[guardianoftheblind]

don't really need to take your time with skyrim, considering you can put 500 hours into it if you want

Hearing that Battlefield 3 is a good but not great single player experience. That's a shame.

After all the hoopla, the Beta didn't get my bame boner beyond 60%. Its way down my priority list at the moment.

[copstache]

actually all reports are showing that the final version makes the beta look silly by comparison

mp, not sp obviously

people care about the sp?

[fallbacktostone]

hahaha people that don't understand 'beta'

i bet the sp is just fine.

[guardianoftheblind]

i understand the Bill's love of SP, obviously, but to totally disregard multi--ESPECIALLY when it comes to Battlefield is pretty JOFA-esque

Yes, sir! I'm single player ONLY.

the SP will probably be just like BC2: totally serviceable but nothing special in the end

[copstache]

i bet the sp is just fine.

yeah but i mean that's maybe 1% of why i'm excited for the game. i hope it's a good campaign, and i'll play it. but even if it didn't exist it wouldn't make a lick of difference in my interest

Sorry, dont care for multi-player matches and such. Maybe one day I'll get around to playing a game via co-op. it's too late for me, son.

[fallbacktostone]

yeah i mean. you play it when you can. inbetween mp seshes while snaggin mad cheevos nawm sayin?

[guardianoftheblind]

FUK YAH

[Comrade Slinky]

I'll play sp when I've had too much to drink for mp.

[doomeddisciple]

I'm sure the polish is more apprent etc.

But at its core it is still just a shooter. I'm just not as excited about it as the other tonne of bames recent and soon to arrive.

[copstache]

I'll play sp when I've had too much to drink for mp.

ahahahah i'm the opposite. some of my most impressive multiplayer man-shooting moments have come at times where i'm almost too drunk to stand

[fallbacktostone]

i have a lot of fun when i'm drunk playin something mp but i usually suck if i am.
