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

[doomeddisciple]

Fallout 4 PS5 - can't load my PS4 save files, can't see a PS4 vs PS5 option if I delete and reinstall, can't hook the pip boy app up - blaaargh

[ghost boner]

I forgot about the pip boy app! Been playing that shit a lot lately. Game fucking rules

[The Bill]

Rouge Warrior beaten. It was pretty short but I'm positive I literally paid only a dollar for it. Generic military type shooter that probably thought it was a COD clone, but really it was an older style pre-Modern Warfare shooter like a Soldier of Fortune, Black, or one of those. Main character's shit talk was a hoot. It was okay.

Spin the Wheel, you Commie Cock Breath Mother Fucker!


Vice Project Doom (NES)





Vaguely familiar, but I know the AVGN recommended it in a video long time ago.

[The Bill]

UGH! That NES game kind of blows. GREAT graphics for the NES, but combine lackluster Spy Hunter, dumbed down Operation Wolf, a little NES Batman, and slightly more forgiving Ninja Gaiden and you get this. I find it annoying and boring, and the story is incoherent ramblings. Pass!


Spin the Wheel, Ally McBeil


FALLOUT


Nice! Good timing with the TV show. Is it 3, or 4? New Vegas? No, it's...


Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel (PS2)





Oh, the one that did so poorly that Interplay lost the rights to make Fallout 3 over it. But, it's like Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, isn't it? Isn't it?!?

[The Bill]

As to be expected I’m not gonna finish that Fallout game. It’s fine as sort of a Mad Max Take on Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance. But anything Fallout is just a crude layer of sloppy paint thrown right out of the bucket on top of this game. This is no Fallout. But Fallout or no Fallout, the game is missing something, So we’re gonna have to pass.

I actually also beat Tomb Raider (2013), which I had been slowly picking away at for a while now. Love me a good Die Hard style adventure. I don’t like to just play one game nowadays. So, I like to have a Back up game that’s different Enough so I could possibly go back-and-forth when I’ve had enough of one of the video games for the day or what have you.

[The Bill]

So, huge update, because I know you all wait with baited breathe for the continuing misadventures of The Bill's electronic devilment. I had time to play two of these before I typed this.

The wheel choose:

LUST FROM BEYOND





Stole this from a site that promised survival horror in a Lovecraft meets GIGER world that has boobs. Well, it's unique to what I normally play, that's for sure. Graphically outstanding outside of character faces, which feel like graphics from a generation or two ago. It's a combination of Layers of Fear. Scorn, and Resident Evil 7. Some of it's cast of characters could be from Bioshock, and the main character's dialogue is quite good. The art style is very H.R. Giger and I guess Zdzisław Beksiński (I only know of him now, thanks to this game). Oh, and the Lovecraft influence is definitely there if Lovecraft was a pervert because THIS GAME IS BORDERLINE PORNOGRAPHY!! So much fetish shit and I've been gay raped, damnit! It's hard to play this with the family around, although the boy is aware of it. Wife almost caught me giving a masked bitch doggie style. Game can be oddly mundane, though. So much walking around to find an item. Reuses locations a lot. Still, there's something oddly well done about it, and it gets in your head. Sutter Cane for depraved fucks.


The next game wasn't a spin. I just saw it and grabbed it and played some based on YouTube reviews whacking off to it:

MULLET MADJACK





On paper this is not my shit at all. I hate timed anything, an archaic abomination from the NES/Arcade days. Guess what, game has you killing enemies within a 10 second timer or die, as you speed run through tight linear levels, while also managing a health bar. I'd call it a glorified mobile game, except it gives you an option to turn off the timer, and play it as a normal "boomer shooter". Oh, now I like this game lots. Nothing to spend a lot of time on in one sitting, but 10 short stages and a boss fight is the usual so far, and that's good to go for a while.


Mullet isn't a proper full game, and I can't play porn all day without discovery so:

Spin that Wheel, Eel!

THE DARKNESS II





Beat the 360 version when ever it came out. Not as good as the first, but I remember it being fine. Very violent at the time. I think they switched to that cell shading look to trivialize the gore, since this was before those new Mortal Kombat and DOOM games really took it further.
