The Other Worlds Shrine

Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about... 

  • Nothing like attaching a plasma grenade to your marine buddies ass and then watching him run around and slap himself like a madman screaming "Get it off!! God get it off!!"

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I still maintain Halo is awesome but why the hell are there no bots in multiplay? I mean, co-op is cool, but all those multiplay-vs. matches go to waste when you just have two players...

DOA3 - Pretty, but just like Soul Calibur, fairly shallow (yes SC was shallow...don't believe hype). And no extras save some hidden ones through survival/time attack? Maybe I'm missing something... If not, I'm trading it in.

Oddworld - Fun and Gorgeous...but I don't like platforms all too much so I merely rented it.

The controller - Fits my hands (and my hands are pretty small)... also, it has 'shock' built-in (does the GC or PS2 have that? I dunno). The only complaint I have is the oval layout...I get confused which button is which.

The system - God is it ever ugly. And heavy. And ugly. When people said this before, I thought (by looking at pics) they were nuts... but no, it's really quite hideous.

I gotta admit, I'm pretty happy with my XBox purchase BUUUTTT I also have to admit I'm considering picking up a PS2...Mainly because you all make GTA3, and FF games sound so good...(plus the PS has Atlus games)

Geeze...I don't even play games that much anymore...what to do....

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>i have a ps2 and my incentive to buy one was the ability to play dvds, of course FF games, but it would play all my other ps1 games, and they even run and look better on the ps2 asofar. :-)</div>
