Gaming room (It's a geeks paradise)

Oooh looks good!! Someone's taken Dear Esther and made a proper game out of it by the looks of things

[Otta]

I liked the story and the humour of Fable 2. Of course they're mere snacks when you're playing elder scrolls, but sometimes you don't need a 3 course meal.

[Dopamine1979]

Finally found time to finish GTA V.

I opted to kill Trevor.

[Otta]

Yeah cheers for the spoiler!

Although I'll have forgotten it by the time I get round to playing it in a few years time.

[Dopamine1979]

No spoiler intended.

You control the story line anyway.

[Otta]

I was only jesting mate, it's not a surprise even after the opening sequence.

[El Pibe]

Ben Croshaw just described zelda fans as

"A bunch of milk-eyed simpering cunts who can be brought to the theoretical limits of hhuman ecstasy by tri-force patterned tea-towels."

Has anyone ever seen him and woodrot in the same room? Just a stylistic similarity is all. That would be very cool indeed btw.

in a world where cool=incredibly geeky obviously

[Otta]

To be fair, I loved Zelda but have given up playing the same game over and over. I just couldn't defend it to myself anymore.

Still a couple of my fave ever games in the series though.

[El Pibe]

me too, but they have milked it.

I've heard good things about the new one though, here's hoping (and might get a wiiu for the kids for crimbo

[Otta]

I got skyward sword on the wii but gave up after a couple of hours as it was just the same old same old and I have little enough game time.

[El Pibe]

apparently this one will be much less on rails, and won't do the usual new item = access to new area schtick.

[Dopamine1979]

I never got the appeal of Zelda. Even back in my bespectacled short-wearing NES days. I think it must only appeal to a special kind of geek.

[Otta]

I never liked the original Legend of Zelda, but Adventure of Link was one of my absolute favourites as a kid (funnily enough it wasn't liked by a lot of fans).

If the new one is more open world then that will be a huge improvement.

Which begs the question, what the hell was wrong with FIFA 10?

[Parker82]

I can't remember , either fifa 9 was so bad it put me off or it was so good I just stuck with it for a extra year.

[Dopamine1979]

I'll take a couple of games off your hands Parker82. How much for red dead redemption?

[El Pibe]

anyone playing world of tanks blitz, out now on android as well as ios (and new update gives you the british tanks)?

ftp model is not annoying in the slightest, it's a beautifully balanced game, and judging by my 500 battles and counting, worrisomely addictive!!

[StraferJack]

my gaming time has all but evaporated - i could play on teh train I guess but by then, reading is my goto

duly filed away for when more time frees up tho

[katanita]

Am enjoying this silly but seasonal game http://monsterandmonster.com/winterwalk/. It's quite zen.

[Dopamine1979]

I have been revisiting Street Fighter 2 on my X-box.

I spent many of my formative years on that game and would still argue it is the greatest 2 person beat 'em up ever.

[Otta]

I was a big fan. A SNES with Street Fighter 2 Turbo was up there with my bass guitar as best presents my parents gave me as a teenager. I tended to go for Ryu/Ken.

Tekken 2 on the original Playstation was also very very good (never had a PS, but spent A LOT of time round my mate's gaff playing his).

[Otta]

Was never really a mortal Kombat kinda guy.

[El Pibe]

also soul caliber on the dreamcast.
