    Assuming you play on a console, did you get that DLC (Downloadable content) thing called "Prince of Persia: Epilogue" as well? If so then how is it?

    Haven't tried that yet. I want to finish the main story first, since it's an epilogue. But yes, it was included in the box (a serial n°).

  2. Dead Space (PS3)

    omg

    Man this is one hell of an atmospheric horror experience set on a giant abandoned ship set in deep space. Imagine a mix of Silent Hill (the creepiness and gory factor) and Resident Evil (the combat and survival aspect) but in the vast cold reaches of space. It's tremendously atmospheric and if played in the right conditions (dark room, full surround) your nerves will get a good workout. The graphics are absolutely mindblowing and really bring home the feeling of isolation and desperate struggle on a giant spaceship, like so many good horror movies have done, only this time you're the one being chased and terrorised. This is the closest you'll get to experience an interactive Alien movie. Sound design is also fantastic with corridors filled with the weirdest, most upsetting sounds creating tension. And it's almost as if the ship you explore is alive because you can hear all sorts of inner workings and environmental sounds that make you terribly uneasy and waiting for something horrible to happen. And when all hell breaks loose in the form of inevitable confrontation with the mysterious entities on the ship, be prepared for mayhem and nerve-wrecking combat. And the few times you'll wander in zero-G have to be seen to be believed.

    Brilliant game !!!

  3. well, started playing Killzone 2 and this really is a beautiful game, nice action too and I love how you can shoot everything to shit. So far only level 2 but already the orchestral score has captivated me enough to go out and hear it smile
    waaaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Where's my nut? arrrghhhhhhh

    I've been installing a bunch of games I haven't played in ages such as Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142, Splinter Cell and RollerCoaster Tycoon, but they just don't interest me now. sad

    They've lost all the appeal they once used to have and lack "fun".

    Chain Rxn is more my cup of tea now...my God, I hate getting older!
  5. The Facebook thing? It's cool!

    Yeah! cool

    I'm also playing again...Splinter Cell. If there are any good games that emulate 24 more than anything else, it's the Splinter Cell series. The main character is basically a clone of Jack Bauer, your boss is voiced by none other than President Dennis Haysbert, and even Michael Plowman delves into the same sample libraries as Sean Callery. Now that's frikkin' cool!
  7. Yeah shame that 24: The Game never quite got that level of polish that the Splinter Cell series has attained. Good ideas but poorly executed. Hours that only last about 10 minutes, what's the point of that?

    Started replaying GTA: San Andreas on PC again... this for me stands out as being the best GTA in the series, content wise. It's also the only one where you can fly planes as well as choppers. Awesome! And the whole black homies / gangsta storyline always got a chuckle out of me. It's much more comical / sarcastic than at first glance would appear, with all the swear words and stereotype characters. I also prefer this one for its smooth controls. GTA IV, great as it was just felt slow and cumbersome at times, but at least the combat was great. This one had it just right when it came to maneuvring / getting around the city. Such a great waste of time!! beer

    I didn't know you had this one on PC? I thought you had this one on the X-Box

  9. I did, sold after completing it, now I bought it again as part of a Steam download-package (including GTA III and Vice City). After GTA IV I just had to revisit this, and what great fun it still is. You don't have bicycles, flyable planes and drive-by shootings in GTA IV, now do you? biggrin

  17. Well I gotta say, on the mayhem / explosion front it's looking rather nifty, but the concept behind the film is not getting me all juiced up as a gamer. And besides gamers these days want well told stories as well as the ability to kick ass.

    So a big cynical head turn for me. I'm not itching to go see it. Last videogame movie I saw was Silent Hill and that one was fine because it stayed true to the concept behind the game.

    You did good; stay as far away as possible of the likes of Max Payne, Resident Evil (all of them), etc etc.

    Well at least the very first Resident Evil movie had some good ideas and a cool ending, whereas the sequels just went all overboard, nothing to do anymore with RE, I liked the first (somewhat) but not to the extent I would recommend it to anyone.

    And Max Payne, looks like another waste of good game material.

    Sure, the game material was excellent for a very good film (action, great characters, dark atmosphere, story,...); actually, I can think of few games with such film potential as Max Payne. Sadly, the film is so embarrassing that I don´t know how I managed to watch it until the end.

    Wow, impressive line-up for Microsoft. The Beatles guitar hero thing, some new game trailers (Tony Hawk a.o.) and actual gameplay, lots of xbox exclusives like a Final Fantasy and a Metal Gear Solid. Don't forget Alan Wake and the new Splinter Cell, and two new Halo games. But that isn't all.. a full body movement-tracking camera system. We've seen some great tech demos; and if it all actually works... sweet.

    Let's keep those press events coming. punk

    Are there any new screenshots or videos of Splinter Cell? The last ones that surfaced were over a year ago.

    Also from Crytek - CRYSIS 2 for the PC/Xbox/PS3!! cool
  25. Crysis 2? Uh oh, time to upgrade again...

    They said when the first one was in development it was supposed to be a trilogy, so it's no real surprise. But I'm still psyched about this series, in fact just playing through Warhead again, it's great. And quite lengthy for an expansion.

    If the 360 and PS3 can handle Cry Engine 3 just as well as the PC (lol!) I will happily buy it on consoles instead.

    But what's the chance of that happening. biggrin

    Dudes, games are for consoles. If you go the pc gaming route, lots of unnecessary expenses on a machine you'll eventually throw away, expect you; trust me, talking from first-hand experience.
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.
  28. There is a place for both PC and console in gamenation. At least for me.

    Some genres work better on consoles. Others work better on the good old IBM compatible.

    Take FPS's for instance, way more satisfying to play keyboard / mouse.

    And I don't need to upgrade my machine every year or so. In general after two years I just put in a new top of the line gfx card, that's it...

    Bought a few days ago for 10 euro 'EA EURO 2008' soccer game for the PS3. Quite nice, especially for the money (second hand, but as good as new)

    Regarding PC vs Console... I would love to have an updated playable version for the PS3 of the Total War series. But I guess that's impossible because of the controls you need to manipulate your armies, can't be done with the sixaxis. Maybe they can work something out, to make it playable though. For I really love these Total War games... ; huge acient armies on a battlefield.

    Some of my favourite PS3 games:

    Uncharted
    MGS IV
    Warhawk
    Oblivion IV
    Dead Space
    Sid Meier's Revolution
    Sega Virtual Tennis III
    Red Alert
    Motorstorm II

    Some of my favourite PC games (all time)

    Counter Strike
    Day of Defeat (an Half-Life mod)
    Age of Mythology
    Rome: Total War

    ps.. I am 36. Want to see the first computer game that I played EVER?.. here a screenshot:

    [IMG]http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/5660/tennisa.th.jpg[/IMG]

    Phew... makes me wonder what kind of games we will have 20 years or so from now.
