Other PC Games Thread.
So with the film and music threads still going and being discussed... why don't we get some discussion going on something on topic to the board? What other games are you playing now?

Metlslime 
I knew that, but as the game looked very good, I decided to post anyway...
BTW a friend of mine played it on X-360, and it reminded him "StartShip Troopers" movie.. It told me that is it really frantic: many exploding stuff everywhere, a lot of hordes of monsters, etc.. etc.. Very intense gameplay it seems... Well, I'll try to test it ASAP :) 
Rainbow Thix: Vegath Baby Yeah! ;�* 
Currently playing the PC version of R6:Vegas at work and the 360 version at home - yeah I don't know why either :/ I find the game really pisses me off constantly, but there's something about it that keeps me coming back for more.

The games are identical in terms of content on both platforms, although the 360 wins imo due to the controls working out better.

Not far past the Vegas Strip, so I won't post a proper review yet. 
Lost Planet 
I watched a few minutes of someone playing it at work last night, plot seems a little weird (from what I gathered you kill the creatures to harness their "precious thermal energy") but from the few minutes of gameplay I saw it looked like it could be fun, if a little clumsy at parts. Apart from nice graphics in the into cutscene (which I'm assuming was being rendered ingame) there wasn't much to make me want the game though. 
Lost Planet 
funny thing is, I knew it was japanese as soon as I saw the subtitle "Extreme Condition."

And it is apparently a Capcom game, and has lots of console-y designs and stuff (the look of the alien creatures is very metroid prime-y, for example.) 
I Like 
metroid prime-y bugs and aliens that move in wierd ways and you don't know what to expect. Generally more interesting than shooting the same old bloody terrorists/nazis/other blokes-with-guns etc.

Oh, I get it; so you're one of those bleeding heart liberals, eh? Next you're going to want a game where you get to bomb American infrastructure.

I can see the terrorists have already won. 
That's Rich, Coming From A Guy Named After A Rocket Launcher 
 
The RPG 
is used merely for deer hunting and bass fishing, oh, and the occassional revenuer who gets too curious about what's growing in the back lot for his own good, but beyond that it's pretty much for show. 
Headthump 
I dunno about everyone else, but I usually just use dynamite for fishing. 
Oh, And BlackDog 
Actually, I'm named after my dad.

Now don't ask me why my mom was getting it on with unexploded ordinance. 
Wario Ware: Smooth Moves 
Incredible game. I suggest everyone who has a Wii gets it. Though it may not sound like much to have tons of short minigames to play, the style, humour, and sheer madness of having to so many differant things in the span of a couple minutes is an experiance not to miss. 
Yay! 
I'm going to play it tonight. Imported it from England so I have it a few days before it's released here, a fact which irritated many people at work today. :D 
 
Lately I`v been playing (trying) games made by the company Im working at. And it all made me rather upset... 
Kekeke 
Lol 
but atm its loads of fun :) Leveling is quick and easy and there are tons of quests with great rewards. The new zones are gorgeous and some of the new items are just silly...

Gah my wow addiction knows no bounds! 
1K! 
First one to one thousand (i.e. me) wins!!! 
"Schlooomph!!" 
That's the sound of me being uncontrollably sucked into the world of Oblivion again.

And you'd have thought 215 hours would have been enough for anybody... :{

(Also, anyone else getting excited at the news of the expansion - seems like a return to the phreaky high-fantasy mushroom world of Morrowind...) 
Yeah, I'm Kinda Stoked... 
Looks like they listened to the folks who didn't want more semi-generic fantasy stuff. :)

And I've never really stopped playing Oblivion, although I usually only play for a few hours a week, and not obsessively, like I did with Morrowind... 
.ffs Files. 
Hi all, stab in the dark here, but i have no where else to go,.... Does anybdy know how to extract audio from a .ffs file or a program that will open it.

Gothic 3 - still brilliant and engrossing despite the occasional bugs and stuff. A lot more stable since the 1.2 patch. Only the slow running in busy towns is a real issue now. So much to do any explore, it rocks. Seems to be very few restrictions on what you can do. Unfortunately I lost my pet rhino somewhere. Last night, however, was very cool. I went back to the starting area of the game and swam directly across the ocean to a small island near the desert mainland (which I think I could have done first and completely ignored the normal progression). I got to this island which had a small fishing dock and a shack....went inside the shack and all there was was a decaying corpse, swarming with flies, hanging from a noose. Very bleak and cool.

Need a game recommendation for someone (not for me, I'm purely addicted to G3!). For a laptop, mobile Celeron 1.6 ghz with integrated graphics and 1 gig ram. Said someone specified:

I want something I can play over the internet, that's continuous play rather than a game you complete. Should be more of an adventure game than a shoot 'em up.

Any ideas? I've dismissed WOW and EQ due to monthly fees, and recommended Guild Wars as a cheaper option. Clearly online adventure games don't really exist, offline pure adventure games or MMORPGs being the nearest alternatives. Would appreciate suggestions cheers. 
 
Tell your friend to get a 360. 
QW! 
(sorry)

UT Classic
