You're setting yourself up for disappointment if you use Conan O'Brien as a valid review source.

This is the same guy who implied Halo 4 was a good game.

I mean, that's one of the few games I played that pretty much everyone I know agrees it is objectively a bad game.

Re: All time favorite games ..

it's a comedy ... he's a famous comedian ... he says himself he knows nothing about video games .. he's hilarious but of course no one thinks he's a valid review source ... the whole point of the thing is to laugh on how bad he reviews them ... me posting the link was for laughs.

Yeah, he sorta liked Kinect Star Wars. That lone is reason to never trust his opinions on games.

It's fine to laugh at the videos though.

Re: All time favorite games ..

Anyway, since this is a games thread, I shall use this post for my routine Halo 4 bashing.

Halo 4 is the sole proof that Kazuma Jinnouchi and Neil Davidge (Top video) are not nearly as good composers as Martin O'Donnell, Yasuharu Takanashi, and Naoyuki Hiroko (Bottom videos)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YfFfFUKqZY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCrL76vGpNA

VS the obviously superior

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y0kPsom4s8
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgJh0n5F4NY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZVryiISZ80

Note something that the bottom three (O'Donell, Takanashi, Hiroko) have that the top two (Jinnouchi, Davidge) lacks. It's called subtlety. But no, they (Jinnouchi, Davidge) had to appeal to the Call of Duty audience with an EPIC, MICHAEL BAY EXPLOSIONS, SO PUMPING, 1337 TECHNO ost for Halo 4.

343/Ensemble. Ruining a once-great series once element at a time. Kinda like how they destroyed Age of Empires a few years back with that, that thing we abhor as Age of Empires Three. RIP Ensemble/343, and godspeed to the IP they dragged down with them.

Anyway, I end my rant here before it derails any more from the title of FAVORITE games into MOST HATED games any more. And I apologize for crashing anyone's weak PC if they couldn't handle all the embed windows, but trust me, it'd be much worse if you went into a music-thread on Facepunch.

(Got rid of videos, they seem a bit obnoxious in such density.)

again kinda stating the obvious .. he says himself he knows nothing .. and the "rating" is made up ... that's like saying you can't trust SNL weekend update with seth mayers (a comedy show) as a reliable news source (duh). like he only liked tomb raider and halo cause he liked the girls in them ... so the response i was expecting was more like : lol funny video tongue rather than saying it's not a valid review ... big_smile but ok, got it, i won't use comedy shows as my source for video game reviews ... or the barber shop to buy groceries tongue

back on topic I got skyrim m PC can't really run the graphics well for it and the beginning is a bit boring but still like it .. more than oblivion which i left after first level cause those huge rats kept showing up freaking me out sad tongue

currently playing DMC and enjoying it quite a bit has a potential for being one of my all time favorites ^_^
so was PSI OPS ... favorite for sure ^_^

I didn't know games were such serious business to you guys.  And don't you think these huge money-wasting movies masquerading as games deserve to have some laughs at their expense anyway?  That being said, Conan's review of Resident Evil 6 was a very insightful and accurate review.

Well, I don't have much to do inbetween TAXES and WORK. It's either writing a fanfic like Eastern Heat (Shameless plug goes here) for hours or spending just as many hours playing something.

Re: All time favorite games ..

Do you guys have any games that brings you memories from the past?
This is a gameplay from a game that gives me nostalgia ;_;
[video=480,360]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSYAU8BXMiE[/video]

Posting this also because the game is kinda similar to Oni, it is third person fighting game and it has female main character.
This is actually even older than Oni (1999) so combat is much more basic.

Re: All time favorite games ..

It's probably the prototype/basic design for the Grand Theft Auto Series before they went into 3D third person, that's why it looks really similar to GTA 4's gameplay, even the hotdog xD... it's also a open world...but the combat is very similar to Oni's.

If I think about it, world was a bit like in gta you could even drive cars, with extremely bad handling though.

Re: All time favorite games ..

Interesting, I've tended to overlook this game for some reason and haven't seen much of it before.  Since Oni was originally slated for 1999, this game was listed as a possible competitor in the positioning statement.  It's true that combat looks more primitive, but then UC has actual moving traffic and Oni doesn't, as well as some other nice touches.  So I wouldn't say it's more primitive in all respects.

If Oni had come out in 1999, i think the game would have had a much huger fan base plus more success sad

Glad you found it interesting. Too bad they didn't incorporate many features from the positioning statement like physics, destructible environments, real time shadows or multiplayer hmm

Looks like Solid Snake got scared and shaved himself when he heard that Sam Fisher started his own barber shop.
