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?

Dystopian Space Ship Porn 
aka Dead Space 3.

Only about 2 hours in so far but daaaaamn son dis shit is off da hook yo. Etc etc.

The weapon system is just fucking awesome. Seriously whoever designed that needs to be given the videogame equivalent of an oscar. So many hilarious combinations and I'm sure I'll unlock more as I get further in.

Gameplay wise it's pretty much standard DS so far. Don't think I've seen anything particularly new added there, aside from the weapon system.

It's the constant tense atmosphere that really makes the game shine, it's done so brilliantly just like the other two titles in the series. There are moments of horror but mostly it's a slow burning dread that permeates just about activity in the game. Pressing a button in this game is scary, haha.

So far things seem super easy on normal difficulty. I've got health kits, ammo and stasis packs coming out of my arse and can craft 300x more if needed at the work benches. I think I really should have picked hard! I decided against it as I'm quite slow playing with a 360 pad, but in hindsight I think I would have been just fine. Tip for you lot! :)

Now go map Quake metl :) 
Oh Shit 
Visceral Games just need to make an Aliens 3rd person survival horror game and I'll be in heaven.

studio�s co-founder Jason Jones reasoned that the PC would not be a suitable platform for the first person shooter simply because nobody plays shooters with a mouse and keyboard.

Is the PC FPS market really a thing of the past? 
 
even if it is, that's still a flimsy reason not to develop for the pc since you can plug any usb controller into one. 
What BS 
Online shooters are evolving, even for the PC.

Look at Blacklight, Planetside and Natural Selection 2. All better than Halo, all modern shooters, all on the PC, all played by skilled players with keyboards and mice. The dude is obviously high on glue. He probably owns an iPhone..... 
What... 
...a fucking bellend. It's demeaning to even consider replying to someone who is so self-evidently wrong, but Far Cry 3, Crysis 2, Rage, Dishonoured, Deus Ex, MW3, BLOPS2, BF3, TF2, Quakelive, etc etc DAFUCK.

So they made Halo shit and dumbed down and consolised, well done. Fucking choads. Mouse and kb is still the proper control system.

rage and quakelive are commercial failures. and the others are consolised games anyways. 
Subtext: Piracy Kills Revenues In The PC FPS Market 
 
Snake Oil Salesman 
As Spiney suggests, what he's really saying is "we lose money on PC".

But crediting your customers with intelligence is a no-no; they only care about teh awesome, not facts.

Considering he's pitching the comment to XBLA trolls, I spose that's fair enough. Just makes him sound like a high on glue ... self-evidently wrong ... bellend to anyone with even half a brain cell. 
Honest Version: 
Jason Jones: "We can't compete in the PC FPS market."
CEO: "You're fired." 
Look At Blacklight, Planetside 2 And Natural Selection 2 Y'all 
Seriously.

Last time I looked those games we're doing pretty well. Fuck controllers!

"no one bought our Halos on PC" 
Spirit 
you're totally right, tf2, fc3, dishonored, bf3, etc are totally consolised. 
Battlefield BC2, BF3 
Have console versions, but if you play with a controller on the PC version, you're gonna die. 
This One About The Wheel Of Time Game 
is there some way to increase the amount of terangreal to carry with you?

For example there are only 30 or something that lavaballs things you can hold to your inventory the same time, picking up additional lavaballs it's a waste of ammo

and the monsters are fecking brutal 
 
Yeah, I really did not enjoy that game. Unreal bot AI monsters + weak weapons + low health...
Loved the maps, but had to cheat my way through it. :S 
Wheel Of Time 
Heh, the book was so naff and cheesy (I only read the first one), it kind of put me off trying that game. 
Wheel Of Time 
The multiplayer on it was super fun though, there was so much fun tricks to do with the different powers, for instance you could throw yourself in lava, and shoot a switch-place thingy in mid flight to take an opponents place, so they'd suddenfly find themselves drowning in lava.
Wish I could play some more of it, was quite original and different from your regular multiplayer FPS.

The single player seemed fairly average though yeah, like the books. 
Wheel Of Time. 
Great game, good gameplay, cool environments, cool atmosphere, was really nice to have a proper fantasy "shooter" at the time (still a rare breed).

No problems with the gameplay on normal skill either. 
I'm With Shambler 
some of the maps made that game, Shadar Logoth is still one of my favorite settings in a game (think Willem was responsible for it too).

First few maps are a bit meh though from memory. 
Gears Story Writing Process 
Lol 
what story?

(Cant access the video at work so if the video is not serious, thent touche) 
Is This The Story That Makes The Game Fun?? 
LOLOLwhoamIkidding.

No chance of that.

Does look prettier than usual tho. Even tho the marine shuffling screen fuck does make me want to barf my coffee up. 
 
angry birds star wars is fucking awesome! 
I Saw That 
The tie fighter (?) bird made me laugh - tap and it starts blasting the scenery with lasers.
