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?

could be cool i guess? not much to see in those half second clips in between the bleeding guy.

since the trend these days is to remake old games, i really wouldn't mind seeing a straight up simple shooter but i don't know if i would really enjoy more painkiller gameplay as even that was worse than doom slaughter maps. so yeah, more doom/quake, less painkiller.

otoh, if they mean they're making the maps LOOK like painkiller, than i'm totally behind that!

Hard Reset is a futuristic first-person shooter that isn�t afraid to buck the trends of its modern-day counterparts. This PC exclusive harks back to a time when exploration was necessary and regenerating health was a luxury.

I think I just understood where the name "Hard Reset" comes from... 
 
If it actually allows you to avoid damage via fast movement and has level design beyond Serious Sam's basic arenas or PK's corridors then it could be interesting.

Without that it doesn't have the essence of old iD shooters. Wait for demo I guess :) 
 
I'm keeping my eyes on this if what they say is true. 
Hard Reset 
looks cool, though i'm not a huge fan of futuristic sci-fi with disco lights everywhere.

Yeah, i'm waiting to hear what people say about it before I dive in on that one, I heard from a few sources that it's quite buggy atm (sadface) but that patches are incoming.

Did anyone pick this up? Thoughts? :D 
Hard Penis. 
Needs more screenshake and flashing lights. I can just about see what is going on in a couple of frames. 
JapsEYE. 
Looks like a combination of the blandest bits of Deus Ex Human Consolisation and Bulletshitstorm, remade in a modded HL1 engine.

Demo should be incoming soon, will wait for that first, looks pretty weirdo otherwise... Shambler describes it well. :D 
My Thoughts Exactly 
 
Goo 
fuck off world of goo

Haha... it gets pretty infuriating, but when you beat the fucker it's ok again. I'm up to the epilogue trying to build an f-ing impossible bridge. Game's got lots of style. 
Quakecon 2011 Steam Pack 
$70.00
http://store.steampowered.com/sub/11027/

Too bad I already own ... nearly everything in that pack. 
 
hehe yeah, but that reminds me... has any one tried brink out? as it as good as it seemed way back when it was previewed? 
 
Seemed very underwhelming at work, all the talk I've heard seems to echo that. 
 
wow, that's disappointing. :( hype videos and such looked like a lot of fun. 
New Rage Trailer 
 
i wonder... will this actually be a proper game from id this time? trailers seem to indicate it's more than just a tech demo this time!

between this and skyrim, Q4 is gonna be packed! 
I Hope I Can Quick Scope In Rage 
 
Call Of Cthulu 
any good? 
Yes 
But buggy as fuck. It's a rushed console port.

The game itself is very good, lots of atmosphere and generally cool stuff going on, for a fan of Lovecraft.

One particular bug is when you're running away from (something) and depending on your graphics settings, you running speed may be 50% of the normal - resulting in death on every attempt.

Over bugs come in the form of AI glitches when sneaking through innsmouth - even though that sequence in itself is great.

Not quite better than Amnesia or Eternal Darkness, but worth a look. 
The Stanley Parable

A HL2 mod, interesting experiment, worth giving a try. Not reading anything about it before playing helps appreciate it I'm sure, so don't. 
 
will check out the hl2 mod later!

in the meanwhile.. it only took about 6x as much ram as the minimum requirements ask for and many many community patch interations, but gothic3 runs perfectly at highest settings on 6gb ram + nvidia gts250 1gb.
maybe i can finally beat this damn game. i've had it lying around collecting dust for years, because i've never been able to actually run the damn thing. -_- 
Playing Crysis On Full 
at 1920*1080 with 16xAA and 16xFSAA. Bloody hell this looks amazing!!

And so far its tremendous fun too. Could easily be one of the best games ever if it keeps up. 
 
Yeah I've been playing a lot of Crysis mods and maps lately, working my way through them all, and there's some really good ones. In some ways a lot of them have better gameplay that the actual game. Either that or I'm just getting used to it more.

Re Call of Cthulhu - read my review drew. On my website or in the archives of this thread.
