HYPER COMBO FINISH!

Hmmm… secret Coup de Gras? Sounds sexy. I’ll have to look that up.

And yes, several of the characters do indeed swear. Malcolm particularly says bitch a lot. One of his CTF taunts is “That’s our flag, bitch!” I think it’s hilarious. Prevalent swearing in games is such a recent thing. I laugh almost every time I hear it. BloodRayne used “fuck” about three times. Cracked me up every time.

I haven’t played 3rd Strike in forver. I take it over to my buddy’s place and play it with one of his friends. His friend doesn’t even play 3S. Dude owns me with Ken & Ryu. :wow: Only time I won was when he used Necro.

And my MvC2 game was so off today. :sad:

nice shit

Well my friend wanted to check out Mega Man X Command Mission on the PS2. In the past I had wondered what Mega Man would play like an an RPG setting but I didn’t think it would be the X series. I just started the game but so far, this is some good stuff. The combat system takes some getting used to but I like it. Fire X and Black Zero are some bad mothers. The first boss Hippopressor, is surprisingly putting up a good fight. He’s gotten both X and Zero’s LE (Life Energy or HP) into the yellow. Normally I don’t get nervous for my characters in a RPG this early on but if this is any indication, Command Mission could be quite challenging.

I also played some Mega Man X8 today. Oh snap, is this too good. Beautiful 3D visuals but with sweet, sweet 2D gameplay. X, Zero, and Axl all play differently. Axl can hover AND shoot in 8 different directions!!! Shooting in 8 different directions with rappid fire in a Mega Man game = THANK YOU, GOD!! :pray: And Vile is back!! And he looks pimped!!! And the voices = GOOD!! X finally sounds like a man and even Axl doesn’t suck this time.

Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition :cool:

On a racing game tear. Enthusia, Forza and Juiced on occasion. 17ish hrs in on Stella Deus though.

Frequency(ps2) - It seems they’re finally pulling the plug, shutting down the online servers on May 9th. Right now me and several friends are just playing it online like old times, and we’ll be playing on the 9th til the servers get shut down. :sad:

Currently playing Resident Evil Outbreak File #2 online.

So much funnn

playing Kingdom Hearts, Just entered the games in hercules world, beat it with all 3 on my team, now trying to beat it with sora alone. i got a prize for doing it with a team, i wonder what happens if you beat it solo.

Started playing FF3 SNES again. Great game.

that’s it…I think Arclite is my new #1 character in UnrealChamp2. I’ll know for sure when I finally play other people, but at the moment, I’m absolutely destroying the bots like it was nothing with this particular character…I’m far more efficient with Arc than any other character.

there;s something beautiful about having U-damage and activating “UNSTOPPABLE” at the same time…at least for that period of time, I’m so overpowered it’s just disgusting…I love it. I become like a god among insects.

Watch out for Brock and Torgr when using Unstoppable. Their unique skills (Primal Scream/Fear) both deactivate currently active Adrenaline skills, and prevent further use for 20 seconds.

Also note that most of the bots are stupid and keep attacking you when Unstoppable is active, while some human players recognize the red aura and run away.

And seriously unlock Gorge if you are liking Arclite. He’s exactly the same except his skill Smash is way better than Concusion. Smash costs 1 bar and deals extremely heavy damage to everyone caught in the blast (it will kill Lights immediately, and Mediums can only survive if their health is fully Overdriven).

ah yes…I was wondering about Brock and Torgr’s skills there…like what happens if an adrenaline power is already activated, and they use fear/primal scream…thanks for answering that already. At first I thought their powers just prevented adrenaline powers…I didn’t know they also cut off powers that were already active.

I’m lazy about getting Malcom and then Gorge, because my 2nd controller is a piece of crap from Madcatz…and thus, unlocking Malcom is going to be quite annoying.(*the signal from that Madcatz junk is not consistent apparently, as the Xbox keeps reacting as if I’m pulling that controller plug out every now and then.)

*small sidenote—I think Arclite looks cooler than Gorge though. There’s just something “junky” looking abut Gorge, and it’s not a good thing.

I agree, actually. I like Gorge’s armor, but his face paint and mohawk thing look stupid. For that reason, I still use Arclite as well. But like I said, Smash >>>>> Concussion, so I like Gorge better.

EDIT: Oh, I also like Arclite’s personality. How he doesn’t have any violent tendancies, but because he is still a genetically enhanced Human, the Liandri Toutnaments were still the only place he could find work. So he only fights begrudgingly out of it being the only job he can find. It makes him an interesting, somewhat pitiable character.

wow, Pariah is such a shit game. I’m not gonna even bother trying to explain why I feel that way.

Artelier Iris is a bland rpg for ps2. It just feels a bit sloppy, then again I’m only 20mins into the game. Still playing Forza, Enthusia and Stella Deus though.

FFFoooooooOOOOORRRZZZAAAAA!!!

okay that was a bit too much for now, but I’m fucking digging this racer. Can’t wait 'till one more week when finals are done with and I can spend more time with this.

I heart car damage.

SRK , let me know if this is a good deal, my friend got MGS snake eater for x-mas, but never played it, its opened , he watched the intro but he never got around to playing it, he needs $ fast and asked me if i would buy it off him for 25$, should i? your opinions, and is this game awesomeness?

Buy that shit. One of, if not the best game of last year.

They sell for around $25 new on ebay but then you gotta pay shipping and all that, so $25 for a basically new copy is a good deal.

EDIT: And there’s a guy that shoots bees out of his mouth.

Beat SH:C (both endings), still don’t know what to think regarding Karin’s side of the story…

Attempted mission 13 in DMD in DMC3, yet got trounced by Vergil once again. Also playing KoF '02, mainly working on MAX mode combos here and there, occasionally playing GGX2 as well.
