Video Games

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 09:05 AM

Useless.

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 09:13 AM

I don't actually know the storyline in most games I play I just know I have to keep moving and shooting.

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 09:19 AM

Yea, I'm like that with Halo (does that even have a story?). Bang, bang, recharge, alien, dead.

No time for a story when you're saving the friggin' plannet.

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 09:31 AM

If it moves it's a target.

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 09:37 AM

I regularly melee the soldiers on my side to get their guns (in halo).

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 09:44 AM

You know you can just swap weapons with them? Well on 2 you can

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 09:48 AM

But that's nowhere near as fun.

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 09:49 AM

I love it when they finally snap and start attacking you.

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 10:06 AM

Heh, yea. I did that quite a lot in Halo 1. You know the second level where you have to drive around and find the survivors? Well, I "accidentally" killed all of the first group and all the other survivors magically knew what I had done and attacked me.

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 10:14 AM

Yeah, it's stupid though, them trying to kill the MasterChief, the one thing that can stop the aliens.

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 10:30 AM

Yea, stupid noobs.

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 10:52 AM

According to my friend who plays the WoW and lineage the new term is "nabs"

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 10:56 AM

Fuck that, I'm old skool.

**Quincy** · 07-14-2007, 10:58 AM

n00b!

**blueone** · 07-14-2007, 10:59 AM

Nub!

(I pronounce it so rhymes with 'tub', although I believe it is supposed to rhyme with 'tube' - stupid newbs).

**blueone** · 07-31-2007, 01:55 PM

Well, my Xbox 360 just went and killed itself. I got the 3 red lights of doom. Now I won't be able to enjoy the delights of Bioshock the day it comes out. Instead I'll be playing it a couple of weeks after since Micro$oft have to repair my console.

**Quincy** · 07-31-2007, 02:13 PM

A couple of my friends got that. I am as yet, safe.

The first one ritualistically set fire to it. The other one sent it off for repair,

What a muppet!

What caused it, I think, was that I had it on carpet which, supposedly, magnifies the heat given off significantly. When I get the console back I vow to put it on a wooden surface.

**Quincy** · 07-31-2007, 02:32 PM

No idea what caused it.

I keep mine on my desk.

**Quincy** · 07-31-2007, 02:32 PM

Also, I feel for you in your dark, dark times.

These next few weeks will be hard for me. I was so very looking forward to Bioshock!

It looks like I'm going to be doing a lot of PC gaming... NOT WoW, DAMNIT.

I must be losing touch, I have no idea what Bioshock is.

**Quincy** · 08-01-2007, 07:10 AM

I'm glad I finally have a place to post these.

A massive free-roaming shooter with flexible combat (ie. heavy on improvisation). Takes place in an underwater metropolis that went very, very wrong. You see, there was a drug called Adam - everyone got hooked and turned it crazed druggies (basically ZOMBIES). And there's totally sweet stuff all around.
