Haven't got round to playing Extraction Point yet. I got really bored with FEAR.. endlessly wading through enemies in those offices... zzzzzz. Is is worth playing through?

Fahrenheit is a good game btw :D

See I really liked fear - thought it had a really good atmosphere - the AI was really good and so on.
Also I think as it was the first game I played after I had installed the fatal1ty card, and was using it with surround sound headphones - so the game became even more creepy...

extraction point is much the same think, spook noises, and so on - if you didn't like fear you probably won't like extraction point - though it is a far shorter game

I didn't really hate it, it just got a bit boring after the novelty of the 'bullet time' wore off. But yah the AI was good.

They should have had more of those invisible dudes... they were the only thing that semi-freaked me out :D

The end part was especially un-scary for me :(

Picked up Rayman Raving Rabids today... been playing it this afternoon with my son and the missus, and we've all had a real blast.

Cow tossing :erm: is good, but the disco dancing game is brilliant!

Ryan 20-03-2007 18:32

Re: what game are you playing
 
I've been playing:

+Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars (Demo).
It's like Quake or Unreal as an RTS. So very fast. Love the units and it's extremely well optimised. One of my favourite series of video games will be finding it's way back onto my hard drive when it's released on March 30th!

+DEFCON
Great atmosphere and very strategic. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to play a VERY simple, but VERY difficult strategy game with lots of atmosphere. I've never played a game before where I can kill 10 million people with one click.

+Plasma Pong http://www.plasmapong.com
"If God played a game of Pong when creating the universe, this is what it'd be like." A fantastic variation on Pong with nice graphics. Recommended. Free download, and a fantastic sandbox mode where you can experiment with the physics and gases.

Will be playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R soon, my copy is in the post(had it on order with play.com since 2004!! Although not sure my Athlon 2100XP, ATI 9600XT and 768MB RAM pc will be able to cope with it.

Haven't finished building my new C2D PC yet.

I play CS v1.6 until I start screaming in fury, and Morrowind when I have the time.

I think that would be a wise move... you don't want to ruin the surprise by playing it with the details massively scaled down. Plus it'll be an incentive to actually finish your other PC ;)

Just completed Resistance fall of man on the PS3 after a mamoth stint with me and few mates. Then spent a few hours killing people in the online rooms. It rocks. Though I do now have DVT and daylight makes my eyes hurt!

Been playing Supreme commander (A Lot) since its release. It has most features of every RTS I have played with a few extras I didnt even know I was missing.
If you have computer that can keep up with the action its also very fast paced. Sadly I dont have a computer that can keep up with it at the moment but thats gonna change real soon.

My lad and I play the co-op on local and it's a great laugh. I think you can have up to 4 on screen on the same console but I haven't tried it online though.

Incidentally, imho the co-op maps on GRAW (shipping port, temple etc) are better than the ones on GRAW2.

Re: what game are you playing
 
You can have up-to 16 in a multiplayer game (GRAW2), however, you'll very often find that a lot drop out due to insufficient upload speed (the host).

Very stange, this - I found that my Tiscali connection could host up-to 10 (384kbit/s upload) and virgin can only host 3-5 (490kbit/s upload) - it would almost suggest throttling activity on Xbox Live.
