General Gaming Thread

The Metal Gear games on GBC are pretty fun.

[9 to 5]

Not eating or drinking to keep my guy going in Fallout 3 is an odd experince I must say.

Any recommendations for sites that do good reviews of Xbox games? Really not fond of Gamespot or IGN.

Just use Metacritic, it's the gauge of general critical and, to a lesser degree, fan opinion.

Metacritic is the worst example of game reviews. Ever. I mean IGN is a piece of shit, but I'll take that over Metacritic.

I know this will get me a bit of heat, but... Anyone play Minecraft?

[Liam]

X-Pac heat

Nope. No one. Not at all.

Oh man, you're in the dog house now.

[Jason Patricks]

Well, it was worth a shot xD

But seriously now... just got an X-Box 360 and I got Halo: Reach, Fable 3 and WWE 12... Fable and WWE are done, now i'm doing the Halo campaign...

Shouldn't that go in the 'What have you been playing this week' thread?

I'm gonna have to report you now. Be more careful in the future :/

RUKI! Don't do it! Kaney has been especially viscous this cycle!

[Ruki]

Rules are rules Apsham!

I suppose. We have all taken the oath.

I like joystiq. Five star scale same as xplay

[King Ellis]

Ugh, first you don't follow through on that e-fed and now you play Minecraft? What a horrible human being you are.

I just watched a preview for Dragon's Dogma...wow, it actually looks really cool. I will have to try the demo.

So after horribly upset with X-Men Destiny, I am going to ask on here and listen this time... How are the other Marvel games? Any worth checking out? I gave up on DC Universe.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 & 2 are wonderful and filled with so many unlockables and fan fare. So many costumes!

[BuddyAwesome]

Cool, I was looking to pick one of them up tomorrow at Gamestop. How about the Spider Man games?

[TKz]

Eh. They're all pretty average. None have an amazing story or very interesting gameplay. I mean they're okay and if you're a big Spidey fan and find them cheapish, you'd probably have a decent time with one or two. Shattered Dimensions got pretty decent reviews, so if you're looking to get one I'd say go with that one. Ultimate Spider-Man was okay too.
