Games Besides Tetris

WhiteTigerShiro · October 03, 2009, 02:05:05 AM

Oh mercy me, where do I start... Alright, I'm into:

BlazBlue
Castlevania
Diablo
Final Fantasy pre-PS2 era
Half Life
Left 4 Dead
Legacy of Kain
Lumines
Majesty
Mega Man
Metroid
Onimusha
Pikmin
Star Craft
Team Fortress 2
Warcraft (currently ~~playing~~ trapped in World of)
Zelda

Though I'm sure I've missed a few, and that's only including games that I've played recently and/or have BEEN playing since time began (as far as I know anyway). I've also played and enjoyed a number of single titles such as Braid, Quantz, World of Goo, And Yet It Moves, and probably about a dozen RPGs.

I play and highly recommend Guilty Gear Accent Core. Blazblue, a game made by the same developers, came out on PS3 and Xbox360 recently and is also good. I would recommend Guilty Gear over Blazblue, but Blazblue does have online play. These are both 2D fighters for those who don't know. I also would suggest Street Fighter 4.

Besides the fighting games I have found games like Team Fortress 2 and Left for Dead on the PC to be pretty fun. It is nice to have a game where you just play around with friends.

Do you know Melty Blood? It is also one of the top fighting games in Japan. The game has a strong community in the United States arranging tournaments and so forth.

I know what it is. I have Act cadenza(I think that is what it is called), but I don't have the latest one, Actress Again(yet again, not positive on the names). I never got into it that much, but I play it from time to time. I could never really find a character I liked, didn't help that I couldn't remember or pronounce any of the characters.

SpawN · October 03, 2009, 10:14:21 AM

Yes the knew one is Actress Again. I have it and you can find it if you look for, but i`m not supposed to talk about it. You know what I mean. It is not released for PC yet, but it is released for PS2. Well it is a typical anime style fighting game. Guilty Gear is more appealing to people outside US, cause it is not that much anime based. I also don't like japanese anime and manga, but that game is deep. Each character has 3 fighting styles, each with its own specifics and overall the characters are very good balanced. This is the biggest English Melty Blood site: http://www.meltybread.com/

Counter-Strike
P0rtal
I wanna be the guy
I wanna be the fangame
I wanna be the tribute...
You can see where this is going, but I highly recommend IWBTG is you want a challenge and CS is just great one of the best (I'm talking about 1.6 not that Source crap)

Lol @ trapped in WoW. I know how that goes, I finally quit like 2 months after WotLK, too much of a recycled process. Whats your main? Armory linkage plz lol

Here's Me although was only after 2 days played of 80 so don't judge me too harshly lol.

Two games I'd recommend that are addicting are:

&

http://www.kongregate.com/games/preecep/de...acomplete=deskt

Both hella addicting.

Yeah, I doubt I'll full-on quit WoW, because I do find it to be kinda fun, but I've been thinking about axing raiding from my schedule. Too much time commitment for too little reward. As for my main, I'm a Mage. Let your eyes wander to the left a little and that shouldn't shock you too much though. If I ever tell you I'm playing an RPG, you get three guesses as to which class I'm playing as, and the first two don't count. Only thing that sucks is that in a lot of RPGs the Mage-styled class is usually also the un-written "hard mode" of the game, too.

Oh right, Armory link... just a sec, lemme fish it out:

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.x...anis&n=Xyan

The second link is about as far from being a spell-based class as I usually go.

woo starcraft starleague season is starting!

other than that I play mostly pokemon (and tetris)

been playing the uncharted 2 multiplayer demo lately. Love that game but I don't think I'll be able to buy the real game when it comes out though QQ.
Critter crunch also comes out on PSN this week. anybody with a ps3 should check it out cause it's only 7 bucks and it's going to be a great little puzzle game similar to magical drop with online multiplayer.

You should play Disgaea and Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor. If you're into strategy.

I wouldn't consider Disgaea a strategy game per say. It is a turn based RTS, but strategy goes out the window later on in the game depending on how you are. Say once you have several 9999 people that have rebirthed a great deal of times. The game is really damn good though, I am just saying that it really does get to the point where you are an unstoppable force and even the hardest bosses can't take you on in that game, with or without strategy. I love the Disgaea series though, and Disgaea 1 is one of my favorite games of all time.

Brutal Legend is, as expected, made from pure pwnsauce.

Definite +1 for Majesty; the original was amazing. It's just too bad that Majesty 2 had to suck so much... I was expecting so much more.

And I'll have to include...

Fallout 3
The Elder Scrolls series (Morrowind/Oblivion)
You Have to Burn the Rope
Dead Rising
Resident Evil 4 (5 was sort of bad, which was really depressing.)
Kingdom Hearts
Dead Space (AMAZING.)
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth (My favorite survival horror game, easily.)
Scribblenauts

Turn based real time strategy?

It is a Strategy RPG (S-RPG I guess?), at any rate.

I've put about 400 hours into eXciteBots: Trick Racing on wii this summer.

I have to say this is the best arcade racing game ever made. I'm totally hooked on it!

every wii owner should have it. the trick system makes the game incredibly addictive and deep.
