Hey stainless, you've got an Elemental as your avatar but you didn't list any of the Mechwarrior games... Didn't like them?

Also, forgot to add Day of the Tentacle and Monkey Island as my favorites, dammit!

What you played there was Leisure Suit Larry. Hah, that's a good game. I never got to the end though, because I would always try to get the wine from the store to the hotel, and the driver would drink it and crash. I never really wanted to cheat to win and read a faq, but I never figured it out either :( oh well.

Where the hell did I see this coming? :)

Spazmo, seriously. You need to play No One Lives Forever. It's a hell of alot better than Half-Life in my opnion. Although you have to crouch walk so freaking much.

I trust that you've played Perfect Dark, Stainless. I also trust that you thought it was horrible to Goldeneye.

I don't get people who are Final Fantasy fanatics. The games are good for consoles. Sometimes. Actually, FF VII is pretty over-rated. If you want a good Square game, just play Chrono Trigger.

If you want a good square game play Final Fantasy 1, it's the only original one of them all. Really, if you think about it, for it's time it was ground breaking - and I still find it fun, if tedious. From there on it only went downhill, as far as I'm concerned. D:

Heh, I was going to add some battletech games, but I forgot :P

- Battletech: Raise of the Crescent Hawks
- MechCommander
- MechWarrior 4
- MechWarrior 2

----

And, yep I've played Perfect Dark. Got it, actually. It isn't too bad but it never made me stay up late playing it. It's just too slow paced, and generally boring.

Yea Perfect Dark is pretty bad, compared to Goldeneye at least.

What is Rez?

No One Lives Forever vs. Half-Life was more like another_teen_movie vs. triple-Oscar winner than total NOLF pwnage.

NOLF was good for a few laughs and easy-as-hell shooting, but Half-Life was great in every aspect when it came out.

Except for being great in the aspect of me liking it?
I never beat it until recently, and I didn't do that except because I was really bored. It was interesting - almost cool even - but it was hardly anything but cliche, gameplay wise. :(

I thought Perfect Dark was pretty good but it was alot more complex compared to Goldeneye. The only thing I really hated in Perfect Dark was when you hit someone with your fists and they got dizzy and if you were the one that got hit it got really annoying, even when you died and respawned you would still be in the dizzy spell if you got fisted near your last death. No moving lips from talking characters was kinda wierd at first too.
