Running video games (and consoles) thread

Not to mention you get the PS3's BluRay capability along with it. That's a steal. I'm with the others on the next-gen consoles. I'm very content with the graphics, depth of gameplay and selection of PS3 games.

 

Plus your game saves/data won't transfer over to the new system.

 

Anyone else getting a lot of glitches and lagging in NCAA 14? I don't know what it was, but the game lagged so bad today I had to stop playing one of my games. I couldn't do anything without throwing a pick of randomly fumbling it.

 

Seems like PS3 players are having a lot more problems than XBox. Could be a system thing.

 

Been playing a lot of Diablo 3 on the ps3. My god the drops are incredible. Almost too good, but there's a fair amount of difficulty you can put on yourself to keep you challenged. SOoooooooooo much better than the PC version.

Footage of the abandoned Snake Plissken game. I would have found the money for a console to get this one.

 

A Snake Pilssken game would be incredible. I realize it already kind of exists in the form of Metal Gear Solid, but that series has gotten so loopy and fucked up that I checked out after the third game. Hell, just completely rip-off the movie and GTA - Make it Snake in "1980s New York City" where he has to rescue the president, but otherwise, it's GTA.

 

1997.

 

Here's a first for me: just scored on a 100-yard run against Mississippi State in NCAA 14. Ball was on the 1, so it should've been 99 yards. I'll take it.

 

So, I did the Toys R' Us deal when I got NCAA 14 to get the $25 gift card. Now, I need to spend it before it expires at the end of the month.

What should I spend it on.
I like strategy/RPG/sports games. Doesn't have to be that new. I don't buy video games that often.

Difficulty level: Toys R Us has to carry it.
Difficulty level part deux: As mentioned before, I get bored of GTA games quickly. So I won't get GTA.

My other option is to just buy Settlers of Catan with it, if I can't come up with a video game.

 

EA and Tiger Woods agree to part ways. "Mutually," yeah, right.
