Anyone know where a man can electronically steal The Dig?

Nope. Giving out links to warez sites isn't allowed here

But it might be abandonware, tried home of the underdogs?

The Dig isn't funny, but it's damn good.

I am playing Fallout and Halo 2 at the moment. So far Legenedary is getting a bit easier now that I know that cover is teh key to survival.

Okay Janus, this is like your 10th post in the thread and the games change every time.

My game's changing again, too: Zelda Collector's Edition on GameCube..Been playing all the games all day long.

Im still playing Metroid Prime 2, havent played much else yet. Its hard for me to juggle games around cause of controls and story whatnot. I'll be getting Resident Evil 4 when it comes out too

RE is the most overrated game ever, after PD.

ExtremeDrinker · Post by **ExtremeDrinker** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 2:17 am

I think Silent Hill is pretty overrated. I shelled out $19 to get part 4 last week. CRAP.

POOPERSCOOPER · Post by **POOPERSCOOPER** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 2:54 am

ITs already at $20? hah. RE pretty much just a point and click adventure game with a horror theme. Silent hill is the same it looks like too, but with 2 headed babies. RE4 looks more action packtion.

Nocturne all the way bitch.

Subhuman · Post by **Subhuman** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 3:37 am

You don't like Resident Evil...but you like NOCTURNE?

Banned. Forever.

S4ur0n27 · Post by **S4ur0n27** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 3:48 am

Nocturne had a retro feel, and I liked the 2 guns system.

Subhuman · Post by **Subhuman** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 4:11 am

Dino Crisis 2 had a two-gun system, too, but that didn't make it a good game. (Although I liked it.)

S4ur0n27 · Post by **S4ur0n27** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 4:19 am

I'm just saying, I liked Nocturne's setting better, and also the shooting system. Resident Evil also has shitty characters, whereas Nocturne had a badass main character.

Playing nocturne feels like raping a corpse. Its stiff, cold and unrewarding. The intro-movie is totally fucking awesome doh.

Kashluk · Post by **Kashluk** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 6:35 pm

Silent Hill was good 'till part 2. Volume three was mediocore at best. I haven't had any experience on #4 yet, but I have a strange feeling that it won't be mind blowing.

Iv'e been playing Jagged Alliance 2 Urban Chaos.... And man, its like ten times harder than the original! Well not quite, but almost...

JA2 is easily one of my favorite games of all time, however I usually get half way through playing it, and then real life or sometimes my attention span just hijacks me from the game and when I come back to it I feel like I've lost the enjoyment in my last save game and restart.

I think it's partly due to the fact that the conditions for retaking territories is so gay. I would have loved it if JA2 played differently so you could behave more like insurgents. Just raiding various places and not conquering unless you think the time is right.

Halfway through the game it gets pretty ridiculous. It's like trying to plug holes in a boat with a hundred leaks. I'm the kind of guy who likes to take a methodical approach to things. I really wish I'd stop encountering enemy platoons every second tile in the world map when moving. Or territories being attacked relentlessly. Kinda wished they made the resources of the enemy a bit more restricted to suit my style of play. Making a mad dash to kill Deidranna is not what I consider fun.

I wrote a long reply but it was lost in the black holes of the intraweb... So long story short - I agree.
