Listening to the Ratchet and Clank 2: Going Commando Soundtrack and waiting for The Witcher 2 to finish downloading to my Xbox.

Gaming / Re: If TLOU isn't one of the best games of all time...
« on: January 31, 2015, 11:35:02 PM »
I'm tired of zombie games, and while I enjoy a good story in video games, the whole advertising campaign gave me the impression that it the gameplay was shallow for it. That's wrong, I know now, but by the time I figured it out I lost all interest in it. Naughty Dog re-releasing the game in less than a year as a "remaster" that doesn't even include all the DLC made me avoid it at all costs. I despise those business practices.

1) The majority of the game is spent killing humans, not the infected.
2) The Remastered edition does come with all the DLC, to my knowledge.
3) I'm pretty much on the same boat as you for everything else, though. I don't like zombie games at all (the whole concept is rather played out, actually). I didn't actually play TLOU until it was released on PS4, and that was a smart business plan. A report said that 60% of PS4 users didn't own a PS3, so it was a safe assumption to make that those players hadn't played the most critically acclaimed PS3 game. So, if you had already bought TLOU, you didn't need to upgrade. If you hadn't played the game, you got the chance to. I don't think there's anything despicable about that.

However, ND did release a "Full-collection" version on the PS3 that was $60 that included all the DLC. That's some shady shit, I'll agree. That's milking.

The last good Naughty Dog game was Uncharted 2

This is another thing I have an issue with.

How is Uncharted 2 a fun game? I see how it could be better than 1 and 3, but for the life of me, I can't get into it.

It's just shooting gallery, platforming, shooting gallery. The characters are semi-interesting but the narrative is too tied in convention to go anywhere interesting with them.

I really really want to like these games and hop on the UC4 bandwagon but I can't get myself to enjoy them.

It's shit, why would you.

Dunno. Just thought it was neat, considering I got banned over a year ago.

Bungie.net is full of shit anyways, there is no point of going back.

No arguments here.

But still thought, getting banned over a year ago is pretty pathetic.

Pathetic on whose part?

I don't know, what did you get banned for that made you wait over a year?



Oh my, this made me lol'd XD

It made me cry of laughter when I saw it, too. Haha.

This is a masterpiece, i have to give you credit on this one, lol.

I suck at the game, I'm literally playing on easy and got destroyed by these little monster things that can dig underground.

Shit fuck balls. Is it at least challegingly rewarding?

That place has gone downhill fast. Glad to see you here.

Well I've been here for a few months (not as regularly as I'd like, due to having a shitty mobile version) and it's head-and-shoulders above anything over at Bnet.

Even the Desticles are starting to catch onto Bungie's shit, though. I reckon big, or, bigger changes are coming in the future.

Yeah but I was banned over a year ago and couldn't access my original account. This is the one where it all started, baby.

In anticipation for The Witcher 3 (which would have been my first Witcher game), I wanted to get the second one to see what I would be putting myself through.

Luckily, this game is free with GwG on Xbox 360, and it's currently 11:20 where I'm at, on January 31st. Talk about perfect timing.

Now, without spoiling* anything, does anyone have any recommendations or comments about this game before I play it? Considering I have virtually nothing else to play, I'm ecstatic about this.

*Spoilers include things like "the ending will make you cry" or "watch out for that twist!" Don't give me any hints or allusions to what happens in the game, I want to go in blind.

Solid game. I have two platinums from it. Grounded was a bitch!

The hardest parts were the bloater, falling down the elevator shaft, after you give Ellie the sniper rifle, and the final section before you get Ellie.

Hey, still up to battle tonight?

That's what I thought about for CK, which is why I used Empoleon. I'll probably do what you said, though.

I'd rather not, considering I just got wrecked 4 timesin a row. I need to refine my team.

Should be good to go tomorrow, though.
one thing it seems like a lot of people ARENT doing is is adjusting their team based on who they're facing

Might wanna check your opponents type and tweak a bit before battling them

Wtf just happened? I posted a reply and nothing showed?

Anyways, I did think of that, and I'll apply it to tomorrow's battle. That's why I used Empoleon.

Alrighty. Not sure how this works, though. I'll figure it out.

CK looks like he's a top contender.

the way i see it is, you can argue about TLOU being good or not all you want. ill grant that the ability to enjoy a game is subjective and everyone has different tastes. but, at the same time, can you really, in good faith, place TLOU on a list of all-time greats? it wasnt anywhere near the best game of its year. only a few 2013 games can begin to claim "all time" status: guacamelee, DOTA 2, and hotline miami.
but it is certainly one of the best of the last generation
i disagree strongly.

Then we're at an impasse. Agree to disagree?

game wise, it's a terrible game, clunky controls coupled with boring combat mechanics and a game wide escort mission makes it a bad game.


the story on the other hand is great, and engaging, with characters you can feel are alive, and you can remember.

I would argue that the gameplay is the game's strength, but I should save my debating energy for some of the other users here. Lol.

Of course I can. It isn't on my top of all time, but it is certainly one of the best of the last generation, which should guarantee a spot on anyone's list. Considering the quality of video games skyrocketed after Xbox and PS2 launched.
