Gaming room (It's a geeks paradise)

I could be up for some wii swappage too.

I have

Mario & Sonic Olympics

The Simpsons Game

Crash & the Titans

Mario Galaxy (although have barely got going with this yet)

No more heroes

Call of Duty 2 or 3, not sure which, have never played it

Some really bad Ninja Turtles game that I got with the wii

Think that's about all, I really must get to the shops at some stage!

[paragon]

I have a load of Xbo 360 games which i don't want

Perfect Dark Zero

PGR 3

Pro Evo 6

Table Tennis

Bioshock

Gears of War (although I don't think it works)

Would like to swap for something - PS3 game/s if possible.

[Keef]

Forgot to say I have Guitar Hero 3 - Legends of Rock with wireless Les Paul controller that I'd also be happy to swap for a while. Oh, and it's Call of Duty 3 that I have.

Just managed to get my hands on a Wii Fit. :))

Found this thread earlier this morning

Things you didn't know in games

And when I read about the Wait bit in Oblivion I shuddered at the memory of crouching in some guys attic for half a freaking hour!!

Good to know about the VATS chaining in Fallout 3 as well

[Floating Onion]

Nice thread. Thankfully I haven't been caught by any of those. You can chain up attacks in VATS against all the targets you can see. There doesn't seem to be a way to undo an action from the list once queued however. Still not helping me with the damn fire ants. That's a game I'm definitely hoarding ammo in!

[SeanMacGabhann]

It's a game I'm hoarding until I finish Orange Box - but I like what I've seen so far

I've heard rumours of large DLC for Fable 2 imminent apparently

[Floating Onion]

I've noticed. It took me a little bit to get into Fallout, but really enjoying it now.

[mockney piers]

Well i'm very very nearly done on Fable II, just finishing up the last of the side quests before heading to the final battle with Lucien.

Still got 20 keys and 25 gargoyles to find mind, and only managed a couple of the demon doors.

They won't charge for the DLC will they?

[SeanMacGabhann]

As many of us are playing hefty games on 360, we can't have helped but notice how busy and noisy that DVD drive is - are we all looking forward to being able to play these games off hard disk after the 19th Nov?

[bon3yard]

I'm stuck on Deadspace. A completely unecessary section if the game has me stumped and I'm gutted. Its a superb game but this has completely ruined it for me. :(

[Floating Onion]

I don't have enough space. I could clear off some demos, but it would still get very tight.

[mockney piers]

When all else fails, there's always a gamefaq walkthrough

I avoid them wherever possible, but if it's really got me stumped, and lets face it, some puzzle solutions are flippin arbitrary!!

[bon3yard]

This is nothing that a game walkthrough can solve, its just a shoddy and unecessary part of an otherwise excellent game.

[mockney piers]

Just for you Bon3yard

Dead Space savaging.

Mind you Fable 2 fares worse.

[bon3yard]

Dont get me wrong, there are things wrong with it(and that horrible section was the worst, but with the help of the guy who came around to fix my plumbing(no, really)I got through it), However it has a lot more right with it. Its pretty short and you can usually guess when the sh*ts about to hit the fan but its superbly atmospheric and the sense of isolation is quite often too much(especially with the lights off in the early morning). I'm enjoying it and thats all that really matters. So there. ;-)

[SeanMacGabhann]

Not sure if the full retail version is going to offer MUCH more but the demo of Left 4 Dead on 360 is absolutely brilliant. And despite knowing how they are going to invoke the scares, it hasn't stopped me shrieking when they happen - I'm definitely interested in a 4 person team going online for a demo session?

[mockney piers]

will happily join up for a co-op session, as after 3 and a half hours to download demo (?!?!!) I got in 20 minutes before spooks, and was singularly unimpressed.

Serious Sam set in Ravensholme.

Not that SS wasn't a lot of fun, it's just that it was a lot of fun 9 years ago when a fast, slick, pretty Doom was acceptable.

I'm hoping co-op will add a something that single player was missing.

Folks,

Getting a s/hand PS2 some time soon, to while away the odd quiet afternoon. So, given I like rallying games, what's the recommendations for the best of the bunch.

Also, are there any good "quirky" possibly games out there for two players?

Tia

[Floating Onion]

The demo of left 4 dead is gone. Apparently no more now that the full game is out.

This should help you out the 25 best games for Playstation2. Bon Chance. M.

[LostThePlot]

Cheers for that link, only GT4 there really floats my boat. Oh well, never mind eh! WTD: Cheap steering wheel... ;-) and I'd better get that rally seat frame made up too...

OH, can I rig a PS2 into a PC monitor?

[bon3yard]

I wouldnt read too much into that list to be honest. They made over 2,000 games for PS2. If your really only into games that involve thrashing about in cars though...well, your missing out on a wondeful world of gaming! :)

[SeanMacGabhann]

oooh - so it is Onion. Odd, they don't usually take demos down upon a game's release

But I suspect there is more to the game experience than Pier's is suggesting

This review for example is making me want to go out and buy it today

But of course I won't - for tonight it's all about creating my Avatar on Live, and copying my games to hard disk

[Floating Onion]

I seems that they didn't want to leave servers just for hosting demo coop games.

Forgot today was the update. Copying games to the drive would be good, but mine is full of demos I still have to try now. Can you install games to an external drive or anything useful like that?
