khilafah Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Would love to get a new RPG for the X-Box after finishing Mass Effect, Blue Dragon just didn't appeal to me for some reason, would you recommend this game? Was thinking of importing, its either this or Zack and Wiki anyway. Yeah get this for sure. There are some slow moments which can be annoying but it is a real good RPG.
Hero-of-Time Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Not from me as I hated the story. I may give it another go at some point.
LazyBoy Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Just completed Portal. Brilliant little game, just far too short. I wanted more of that lonliness and seclusion. I hope Half Life 3 includes the girl you play as or at least the facility. Its just such a wonderful little world, I don't want that to be the end. Edit: Oh yeah what's the deal with Lost Odessy? What is it and is it worth the walk?
Cube Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Edit: Oh yeah what's the deal with Lost Odessy? What is it and is it worth the walk? I just have one question: Is the combat turn-based?
Guest Jordan Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Just completed Portal. Brilliant little game, just far too short. I wanted more of that lonliness and seclusion.

What is it and is it worth the walk? A Portal 2 is in the works and it wouldn't just be map packs. I just have one question: Is the combat turn-based? Yes, but its interwieved with cut scenes. It looks pretty cool, shame i'm not into the genre.
Domstercool Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Eternal Sonata is a good RPG. Worth a check if you enjoy JRPGs.
Bren Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Was i the only person who hated portal, i found it such a chore to play, and that stupid robot voice... ARGHH!!! And does anyone else get bad lag on TF2?
Guest Jordan Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 How can you hate Portal? The puzzles were fun, it was constant genius comedy and the ending was fantastic. TF2 does suffer from lag on the console versions. Apparently Valve are fixing it.
Nintenchris Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Was i the only person who hated portal, i found it such a chore to play, and that stupid robot voice... ARGHH!!! And does anyone else get bad lag on TF2? oh no you didnt Portal is pure genius, every single last bit of it.
Calza Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Nah I found it fun but I did not find it hilarious, and I found the ending a bore. It did not deserve the acclaim it got.
fex Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) Portal was insane, a nice refreshing twist. Although the voice did do my head in! ________ Medical Marijuana Dispensary Crown Valley Parkway Laguna Niguel Ca Edited April 28, 2011 by fex
Guest Jordan Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Good news. I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. It was a morality core they installed after I flooded the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin to make me stop flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin. So get comfortable, while I warm up the neurotoxin emitters.
gaggle64 Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Portal is amazing. Inventive, dark, hilarious. It isn't going to bring the humour to you, this isn't Will and Grace, there isn't going to be screeching gay stereotype. It doesn't have a laughter track. It's more subtle then that. It's called wit. Actual, honest to god wit, and if you don't like it you must be stupid.
Calza Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Ha, typical because I don't like it I get called stupid. Yes I get the wit and sure it made me smile but the way some of go on about it make it seem like you were rolling on the floor laughing out loud.
Calza Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 What bits? I would really like to know. And the 'boss' fight was terrible, it didn't even introduce any new ideas just the rocket idea from 10/20 minutes ago. And don't get me started on the whole cake thing. *sigh*
Cube Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 What bits? I would really like to know. Most of GLaDOS' script. And the turrets.
Guest Jordan Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 The boss fight was to simply get you to see and meet GLaDOS. It wasn't supposed to be inventive. The journey and the fight itself were pretty cool. Seeing behind all the test chambers, GLaDOS basically saying she loved you and then you killing her because she threatened to kill you. It was pretty messed up and it was so, so different from any other Valve game ever made. Thats what made it special and the portal gun just made it even more fun.
AshMat Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 I find portal seriously over rated, yeah it was a damn good game, but not the OMG MOST MEGA THING EVER TO BE BROUGHT TO GAMING craziness. And also, i HATE the song. EDIT: Also yeah, why does everyone go fucking mental about the cake thing? It's hardly a big deal, the game has better bits than the god damn cake.
Ramar Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Picked up Eternal Sonata today in game for £19.99, haven't played a decent RPG in a while. Hopefully it turns out to be an inspired purchased.
