The boyfriend started playing Turok for the Xbox360 last night. It's a beautiful game, but pretty mindless. Controls also seem a bit sketchy.

I'm pretty disinterested.

The game sucks.


NEXT!!!

ha

See, I'm being the good girlfriend by keeping him company and sitting beside him while he plays his little video game.

I can't wait for Condemned: Criminal Origins to come in.

i've stockpiled a bunch of good 360 games - but i cant for the life of me get interested in playing them ... i dont know if it's because it's summer or what - but i just cant sit in front of the xbox for 10 seconds.... other than the occasional tune on rock band - but even that bores me now.

i have no business being in this thread for a while ..


i miss Halo :(

I forget - Have you picked up Bioshock yet? I definitely recommend it. Kept me absolutely riveted.

And, honestly, Condemned 2: Bloodshot was pretty damn good, too.

I hear ya.

I've also got the newest of the newest in PS3 games and non of them, except for Metal Gear solid which i finished 2 weeks ago, speaks to me. Not that there's anything wrong with them, but first time i die or lose i turn of the console... Man, maybe i'm just not 16 anymore.. :(

Now i'm just here, doing what i do best. Poking people. hehe. :)

Is Condemned: Criminal Origins the first or the second?

i picked up Bioshock a while ago ... a friend at work has been raving about it - and from what he said i need a bit of time to invest in it.

here's the thing - Halo was perfect for me ..
it had frequent saving points - the story was linear - just run and shoot ... no thinking required ... I really liked the music and the visuals - and the vehicles ..

but most importantly ... the saving .. if i died i only lost a couple of minutes and i was back again.


these other games seem like too much time and effort is required - thats really not what i'm looking for .. i just want to run around - find cool stuff - not have to figure crap out - because i really dont want to invest any effort at all into any game.

i probably will check out Bioshock at some point ... maybe this winter .. hopefully i can stay interested for more than 5 minutes because none of these other games have grabbed me :

Assasins Creed
Fear
Quake IV
Prey
Gears of War
Clive Barker's Jericho
Dead Rising

a few others i cant remember ...

I get bored after 10 - 15 minutes.

If fear bored you, then it may not be for you. Bioshock is cerebral even if you are playing just run and gun.

see thats something i like when watching a movie or playing a book ...
i'm just not into it when playing a game ..

dunno why ..

or maybe i do ..


playing a game has always been my last choice for things to do ...
(i'm not putting down anyone who likes games - they just arent my thing)
so when i'm in that frame of mind .. i guess i just want to run around - see cool art (landscapes) and shoot crap .. i'm not interested in working at anything ..

If i was - i'd be doing something else ..

i guess that's the deal
