CIV 2

This.

Also Metroid Prime is great.

Look up the DayZ Mod for Arma2

That would require me to buy the Arma 2 game correct?

Henry_42 @ 27/6/2012 20:59 Yeah, self-explanatory. Max Payne 3 baby, all the way. I might just flood the thread with hundreds of the thousand screenshots I took during the many hours of gameplay. The game is totally genius. Pure action, gunplay mechanics are polished to the max (unintentional pun, intended) - the shootouts are so realistic and good, gat-damn! The story is cool aswell, told in awesome looking cinematic videosequences. I love it! "Drinking" Spoiler + You've been pimping this game in the last few forums. I never played the other two so I didn't think much about it. My buddy called me earlier and told me to come down for smoke time. As he lit it up he started up Max Payne 3 on his PC. It definitely looked awesome. I watched him play for an hour or two, then I tried to jump in and dispense justice. It was at that part where you walk into that slum courtyard and one of the guys locks the door behind you. Max says something about "the king being in his castle." I took a molotov cocktail to the face and burned to death in spectacular fashion. Handed it back to him and watched him waltz through with no difficulty. Going to pick it up for the PS3, I think it would keep me entertained.

Lol I know what you talk about. On my first walkthrough I struggled with that checkpoint myself. It's a pretty difficult situation as you're backed down in a corner, getting shot at by 5 people or so and it's raining molotov cocktails on you. A shootdodge straight forward out of the cover and into the hail of bullets is the best choice really.

You can't go wrong with picking up that game. You buy the ticket and you're in for a ride. It's pure action and delivers like no other game out there in terms of gunplay, except maybe Red Dead Redemption. The gameplay is like "heaven" if you dig gunplay with detailed mechanics, choreographic movements and balistic shootouts a la John Woo. Every bullet you fire leaving a shell to fly through the air, just...wow. And all that in Bullet Time (slow motion) is just....woooooow.

The videosequences which tell the story and play at the beginning/ending and during the chapters are beyond awesome. R* is known for its love for details in the cutscenes. Just look at GTA, the video sequences that tell the story just pour off details and authenticity. But this time around they just went completely NUTS. The motion capturing looks pretty real and overall they delivered something that many movie makers wished they could have transfered from script to the screen in that fashion. Before the release they said "Cinematic experience" a lot, and it sure was/is. The editing, especially in the Intro you'll see it, it's amazing.

Any suggestions for PC?

Max Payne 3. It's a damn good. Srsly Arius, the optimization for the PC release is incredible. It looks beautiful and performs very well at the same time. It's totally worth looking into, at least. Some fine entertainment there. It's a game AND a movie.

unfortunately yes, but I have not heard of one person complain about the price after playing the mod.

I love that game! I don't play as much as I used to but im pretty pro at it. Probably the only video game I am good at.

Occasionally!

I don't have much money and can't buy games very often, but through the help of a friend and PS3 game sharing, I'm able to enjoy all the free games he gets through PlayStation Plus (as well as pretty much every game he's ever downloaded in the last year or so). I'm really glad I bought a PS3. Free games, bro.

But anyways, I've mostly been playing Persona 3 FES and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine (both on PS3, though the former is a PS2 game). Oh, and a bit of Just Cause 2, but that's just a bit too clunky for me; it feels like it should be a PC game, really.
