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?

As Long...

swe is a sex now? 
Hmm 
No. He got the order wrong ofc fool. Swe is the location. Jeez, some people.

czg is obviously the sex 
Hmm 
That in no way implies czg is 't3h sex'.


Just a valid gender choice in the modern world... 
Ooooh

Yeah Go On, Ruin Another Thread 
QMAP`ed


meawhile Iv played pennyarcadegame demo - it has nice comics style, but the gameplay with FF-ish combat didnt interest me at all 
LOL @ #1782 
That is all. 
90 Minute Non-interactive Cutscenes... 
Personally I'm not an MGS fan because of the cutscenes and shit controls so I won't be playing MGS4, but this news just blew my mind. People sit through this shit?

http://kotaku.com/392923/mgs4-has-90+minute-cutscenes#viewcomments

discuss.

Personally I think it's absolutely absurd that the cutscenes in MGS are often substantially longer than the gameplay sections. In the first game (or at least Twin Snakes) the cutscenes near the start of the game we between 5 and 30 minutes long. 30 minutes is already an insanely long time to be watching a cutscene for, but 90? You have to be fucking kidding. The cutscenes are skippable, but if you do that you will miss all the story.

I wonder if Kojima thought of adding a shortened cutscene option for those who just want to play a game rather than sit through hours of his movie making wankery. Save and resume during cutscenes maybe? Can you imagine if you had 45 minutes to play a game and you chose MGS4 only for one of these cutscenes to start minutes into your session. God, that would just suck cock so bad.

Whatever Kojima might bring to the table with regard to innovations and whatnot in his games, he needs to go make a fucking movie and get it out of his system.

Idea: set up a 360 with a copy of CoD4 or GoW next to the PS3 and play a little... er, 90 minute chunk each time one of the cutscenes starts. I bet you finish MGS4 way later. You could probably play CoD4 and GoW in the time it takes to sit through just the MGS4 cutscenes. 
Wait A Sec 
90min overall, or a single scene of that length? o_0 Game is an interractive medium. Cutscenes of this length make no sense at all.
I guess he indeed makes a movie with some interractive sequenses :)
And I dont care for MGS or any stealth for that matter. yes

BTW I beated stalker clrear sky e3 demo leak, despite it crashing all the time and not letting you reload. I killed everyone (except the chopper) :) 
Pretty Predictable Really. 
Hideo Kojima openly admits to spending well over 90 minutes at a time masturbating to his own reflection in the mirror.

In an unrelated story, I have never had any desire to play - and I'm sure will never have any to desire to play - one of his games. 
 
The early Metal Gear games are pretty fun, you should give them a shot. 
 
snes ones? 
 
No, the 3D ones. .. I mean the ones on PS2. Metal Gear was alright until about Sons of Liberty. That's when the interminable conversations started over the codec and the long ass cut scenes started rolling. 
Bleh 
Decided to give STALKER another try recently. I am just at that early border with the Monolith guys I have to keep away from getting near. I killed them all, the mission said "wee, done" and now the mission seems frozen in "defend the border" state...
That "family rifle" has run away too.
And why on earth didn't they fix the PDA's diary so it at least displays read posts in white? The map, well, that would be advanced programming I guess...
I am using that 1.0000000006 patch. Is there something else I could do against such stupid logic/mission bugs? Some fixed mod maybe?

Far Cry 2 Trailer 
In game footage and shizzle, pretty cool despite the annoying Flash-ness: http://uplay.ubi.com/teaser/teaser.html

Never really been drawn to Afrikkkka as a gaming location but this does look good... 
Yawn 
from the 5 seconds worth of gameplay it looks like yet another delta call of medal ops: whatever 
Whatever To You Too. 
I liked Far Cry.

I think it's meant to be quite open and sounds VERY different to super linear games like CoD in terms of the freedom you get to choose your strategy and do missions in whatever order you like. 
 
yeah, lets discuss games, not promo trailers 
Yeah 
So no more trailers (or screenshots of up and coming games) on the "Other PC Games" thread.

And if you do post a link, then please:- nobody talk a word about it.

(PS - Im looking forwards to Far Cry 2, The explosions look really smart, and I hope it's a bit like crysis but with an oppertunity to actually talk to NPCs!!! (that would be cool))

Ooops! Sorry SPEEDS 
Other Games 
Spore - WANT WANT WANT WANT
Left4Dead - WANT WANT WANT WA
Warhammer Online - WANT WANT WANT WA
Starcraft 2 - WANT WANT WANT
Human Head's New Game - WANT WANT WANT WANT
Mass Effect - WANT WANT WANT WA


Most of these are at least 3 1/2 WANTs, so they must be pretty good. (Score is out of 4 possible WANTs.)

Far Cry 2 != CoD4 or HL2. Maybe they will fail, maybe a lot of the stuff you hear people gushing about is marketting hyperbole or maybe it won't end up in the finished product for some reason, but you've got to admit that if you like games like Far Cry, Crysis and STALKER that Far Cry 2 has some promise.
