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

[guardianoftheblind]

obviously no one's going to buy that thing

he's just being insanely bitter, as always

[Wang Mandu]

Yes, I was being completely serious.

Rise of the Triad remake coming out later this year. Probably PC only, and probably mediocre and/or date out the Bajesus. Still, I find myself highly interested in this. IF ROTT is getting a remake, maybe one day I'll get a NOLF or Undying one.

[james]

hahahah man I would play it, but there is really no reason to revisit that game

[Wang Mandu]

Would play a Shadow Warrior remake but that will never, ever happen.

[Pooeyegg]

Warhammer: Space Marine, excellent multiplayer & coop, gory as hell.

Singularity, onrails shooter but fantastic gunplay, and gore. It wants to be Half Life 2 so bad...

MGS: Peace Walker, Dating a 16 year old as Snake is a mission.

Red Faction: armaggedon, pretty lame, n64 version was better.

Beautiful Katamari, funnest non murderdeathkill game.

DQX out today in Glorious Nippon. Still no word on a US release.

Pretty impressive technology considering it's a Wii title. Apparently the clamshell talks, and can drive a car.

Not sure you meant to say onrails, I can't even remember any onrail parts excluding any elevator shenanigans. Maybe you mean corridor shooter. Linear shooter. Whichever the case, Singularity was one of my favorite FPS of the current console generation. Bioshock meets Half-Life. Well done!

MGS: Peace Walker, Dating a 16 year old as Snake is a mission.

I think there's a level in that Asurua's Wrath that you can't look at a waitress's tits. Quirky Japanese stuff like this might be oddly amusing the first time you ever play it, but I'd shut the game off quick if I thought someone else might see me play it out of raw embarrassment alone. Someone other than you fine dirt-bags, that is.

[The Bill]

Huh. Color me interested in Dishonor after watching this demo:

You get to possess a fish!

Of all the people, Susan Sarandon is doing voice work for the game.

[Wang Mandu]

Brad Dourif is in it, too.

[The Bill]

Aaaahahaha! The kids went and hid my Punisher disk and put an Oblongs DVD into the 360. The wife claims ignorance and I believe her. But seriously the XBOX Punishet disk is completely hidden. Glad it's that and not something really worth playing.

[The Bill]

Okay then, kids, the part of Monday you most enjoy. The Bill's inane video game ramblings about is wasted Friday nights at home.

The Punisher: Who knows, one of the kids took it out of the 360 and ???. Maybe DomFoe has it some where masto batin on the toilet. I rather like the game, but I'm not going to hunt another copy down. Either it shows up soon (in an undamaged form) or we just chalk that one off the list.

Crysis: It took me some time to get acclimated to the difficultly and strategies needed. I quit the game earlier in the night out of slight frustration but came back to it later. I feel it plays a lot different than the sequel.

Transformers War for Cybertron: This game seems really boring. It's competent enough, and it's cool to be the various Transformers, but I'm not into it at all. I think I might have to cancel the pre-order for the sequel if it's just going to be more of this. I'm not giving up on it just yet, but I don't have high hopes.

Skyrim: Did some quests that I had basically ignored since starting the game. Like the quest where I ended up in prison with a bunch of Forsworn. I helped them escape, then butchered them once we were outside. I didn't like how they spoke to me in jail.

WWE SvR '09: No one cares.

War For Cybertron's multiplayer was a lot of fun.

Gunlord

[Spooky Apparition]

finally playing through limbo... i dig the atmosphere a lot, but christ there are some tedious puzzles in this game. especially the stupid brain bug ones where you're forced to slowly walk in one direction. i've wanted to play this for a long time but i'm glad it was only $2.50 during the steam sale

[james]

I might take the afternoon off....

anyone getting this on PS3 here....

[The Bill]

Okay, it seems THQ is desperate and using all their remaining funds to advertise the hell out of Darksiders II. Manhattan is plastered with posters of this thing today, man. DEATH LIVES!

[badgevvrecker]

Spy vs Spy for Iphone has eaten my life.

[DR. THRAXX]

Persona 4 Arena is the best looking game I've played in a long time. I cannot begin to tell you how beautiful it looks.

Now I must get good. Haven't played an arcsys fighter seriously in a long time

Way to go, Nostradamus.

There's another zombie type survival game coming out soon, too.
