The Cake is a Lie

[Tessian]

Finally got around to finishing this last night-- amazing ending. The AI, the song, wow... can't wait for a Portal 2 or just more content. Was disappointed in the "Bonus Content" which was just the same levels but harder.

Thoughts?

You asshole, we still have Halo to play before Mass Effect takes over my life! I'll kill you if I see you playing Half Life or Team Fortess while I'm on.

well where the fuck are you guys then...I havn't had a halo partner in forever since andrews girlfriend became a traitor to play call of doody 4

[Blotus]

I haven't seen either of you on for a while, although I did catch you on, Chris, playing Puzzle Fighter while the wife and I were playing GH3 drunk.

Oh wait, we played a few days ago, but sucked.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to wear Mass Effect out in a week or less so I'll be back to the Haloz.

Speaking of Mass Effect-- how the HELL are you already playing it??


As for Lotus and Chris... I check Live every so often but don't see you two losers on. Hit me up on AIM if you want to play; I still want to get Captain and/or beat Legendary

I've been playing through HF2. Just beat Episode 1 with the One Free Bullet achievement. Going to play Episode 2 next, though I have been playing some TF2 today.

Halo 3? GH3? Rock Band? COD4? Super Mario Galaxy? Pfft, fuck those. I am still having fun with the 5-in-1 Orange Box. I'll get Mass Effect when I'm done with that.

Get all of the games 'cause you're gonna have nothing but Smash Bros and maybe (i stress maybe) Too Human for the 3 following months

Devil May Cry 4 in February, though I'm kinda surprised at the lack of Christmas titles. I guess if it's in Q4, it doesn't really matter. The 360 had been barreling through like a train wreck when I got it.

Oh well. XBox Live Arcade is a good source of good games, too. Rez should be coming out sometime soon in Q1 '08, and there's a new version of Mutant Storm out.

Great little game. Woulda been pissed if it was a $40 standalone but as part of that awesome package? Perfect

BTW, I love the baby's crib toy :-)

[RentCavalier]

We really were going to have a party. I even invited all of your friends. Even the Weighted Companion Cube.

Of course, the Weighted Companion Cube couldn't make it.

You murdered it.

How does that make you feel?

God damn, I finally got the Orange Box and Portal was SO FUCKING FUN...

I love it! They should, honestly, include the Portal Gun in the next Half Life installment.

More likely you'll see sequels to Portal. I mean you saw where you ended up right? Brave new world... perfect ending for sequels and you KNOW they're on their way.

[SineSwiper]

I agree, though. It'll eventually end up on the original HL series, and it will be one of those life-changing weapons that redefine FPSs as we know it. (Sorta like the gravity gun, which has been mimicked in many a game.) Can you imagine multiplayer games like this?

[RentCavalier]

Indeed!

For that matter, Half Life 2 is awesome. I'd just gotten to Ravenholm when my girlfriend got my Bioshock for Chuankah, so I've been distracted by teh fishies.

Fishies and crazed, ultra-violent mutants...

[Tessian]

HAha multiplayer Portal! you gotta trick people to fall into portals and out into lava or incinerators or such... geez.

[Andrew, Killer Bee]

Can you imagine multiplayer games like this?

Shadowrun's teleporation is as close a comparison as I think of, and it is indeed rad.

[bovine]

xbox 360 shadowrun = barf

[Blotus]

Shadowrun=barf.

Never played it.

Shadowrun SNES=win.

[Andrew, Killer Bee]

Nah, it's more like a dry retch. I've only played the demo, but I found it pretty fun, even if deeply, deeply ugly. Note however that this was in a pre-Halo 3, pre-COD4 world.

[Tessian]

Am I the only one who tried Shadowrun?

It wasn't that bad a game... definitely not too much to it but it was a decent Multiplayer FPS with powers to use and different classes to play. It got quite boring after a few weeks, however, mostly due to how annoying players were in it and how lame the matchups were.

I watched that Halo recap vid that's up now (think it may have been on the Legendary disc as well) and I don't remember Halo 1 and 2 looking nearly that ugly.

Heh — both those games probably look better than Shadowrun. But it was fun.
