Someone is not helping:

Hot on the heels of the release of the Iraq Study Group Report -- and a day in which 10 U.S. servicemen were killed and at least 84 Iraqis were blown up or shot -- prospective presidential candidate Hillary Clinton will join with Joe Lieberman to hold a press conference today at 3 pm ET to announce the launch of a television PSA campaign about... video game ratings.

i am becoming so obsessed with elder scrolls: oblivion--

anyone else?

― this is cutty (mcutt), Sunday, 10 December 2006 22:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, i played little else for 2 months

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Sunday, 10 December 2006 22:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah I've been playing it a lot too. Its one of the reasons we bought a HD tv, even. I havent even started the main quest yet! I've been having too much fun moving up the mages ranks and gettin' into Arcane Uni and stuff. Fingers of the Mountain spell! KABLAMMM

― Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 10 December 2006 23:08 (seventeen years ago) link

getting fingers of the mountain was awesome

get the book, give it to the wrong person, shock the column, get in trouble, steal book back from person and give to guild!

(hey ade, I cansen you the add-on package one of guild officers made up that works with the 2.0 patch if you want it... haven't figured out how all the mods in it work and a couple of them actively suck (grr fucking Pocket Gnome, I hate you) but it mostly works well and looks good)

my VCS has started skipping, what a load of rubbish. Don't buy a PSP!

― Ste (fuzzy), Monday, 11 December 2006 11:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh noes! Had to give up on VC, it was dying at odd moments. Which is a pity because it is so beautiful. Tried Rugby 2004. I was embarrassed at how little I understood of the game after watching it for so many years!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Monday, 11 December 2006 12:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Twilight Princess is killing me. Currently, I have no desire to play any other game.

― Dragons (per the previous FAQ answer) (nklshs), Monday, 11 December 2006 16:03 (seventeen years ago) link

wiis are now selling for £400 on ebay, i'm having a hard time persuading myself not to sell mine & buy one again in the new year (+ loads of games virtual or otherwise with the extra money). Twilight Princess really is awesome. um. oh yeh theres a new GROW game up, not very complicated though - i finished it at the second attempt.

― zappi (zappi), Monday, 11 December 2006 16:27 (seventeen years ago) link

If you finished on the second attempt then you missed about 90% of the game

― TOM. BOT. (trm), Monday, 11 December 2006 16:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Finished it after a few attempts. I really like this one, it's like the Cube!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Monday, 11 December 2006 16:50 (seventeen years ago) link

My son finds the tv commercial for Viva Pinata seen on Nickelodeon EXCRUCIATINGLY entertaining.

― Dragons (per the previous FAQ answer) (nklshs), Monday, 11 December 2006 19:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Does anyone know if pro evo 6 on the PC will be good, or a giant heap of ass? I've been told that the 360 version is the worst apparently, and I realy enjoy that. It's only £17 from play.com at the moment.

― jim (jim), Monday, 11 December 2006 22:49 (seventeen years ago) link

It's kind of the same as on the PS2, ie better than the 360 and better (but not amazingly so) than PES5.

The furthest I've gotten is the little underground empire and that was still one bar short of MAX. I feel like I've tried every 'branch', wtf am I missing :(

― aidsy (aidsy), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 00:59 (seventeen years ago) link

there's less internal logic to this game it feels and more external logic -- i.e. less each try tells you something about the others and more just intuit it. try watering the egg instead of pushing it further down, for one.

who wants to play Zookeeper online?

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 07:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm gonna get a new DS this week. Numerous people that I consider to be 'sensible' have reassured me that it's the best thing to do.

more random japanese games

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 15:26 (seventeen years ago) link

But quick: I need a game with the same happiness as katamari, same calmness and more n.b. not horrific levels of violence. Any clues?

Shadow of the Colossus and ICO!

viva pinata

― this is cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 19:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Next game for Wii after Zelda is probably going to be Elebits.

My roommate has been playing this old game called Shadow Run that sometimes has awesome music but more often makes horrible annoying repetitious unpleasantness noise.

― Dragons (per the previous FAQ answer) (nklshs), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 19:33 (seventeen years ago) link

the genesis or the SNES version?

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

It's emulated, I think he said it's the SNES version. It kind of looks like lots of fun.

― Dragons (per the previous FAQ answer) (nklshs), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

Yup, it's entertainment. I played it a lot during Xmas flights last year.

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 20:11 (seventeen years ago) link

viva pinata? i thought you were a hardcore gamer nerd, cutty? why the gay stuff? that makes elebits look like doom.

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 20:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Thanks, I've been hearing conflicting stories but your opinion seems to be the most common, roll on payday (Thursday at midnight for some reason).

from our daily campus police report:

BLANTON DORMITORY, 2500 University Ave.
Fraud: A UT student reported that he had made the winning bid on an online auction site for a PlayStation 3 gaming console. The student anxiously awaited the delivery and soon discovered that he had gotten into a bidding war for pictures of a PS3. Loss value: $835.00

is viva pinata any good? i am thinking of buying a 360 at some stage and this would influence my purchase (in fact all 360 games that aren't 'run around and shoot people' would influence my purchase)

lols, we now have 5 people in my department playing WoW! So far, we've got:

dragon quest 9, exclusive to the DS. Super high level of tension.

my girlfriend bought it

― this is cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 22:42 (seventeen years ago) link

she makes you play it too?

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 22:50 (seventeen years ago) link

(i'm not judging, as i am someone who has already preordered elebits)

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 22:51 (seventeen years ago) link

no, she doesn't, but i can make a recommendation based on But quick: I need a game with the same happiness as katamari, same calmness and more n.b. not horrific levels of violence. Any clues?

― this is cutty (mcutt), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 22:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Well as long as no-one's gay, that's alright.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 23:23 (seventeen years ago) link

She sounds pretty gay though.

I know it was way upthread but whaaaat? Abbie Herpe? She stole my first name, ferchrissakes, and got a stupid Suicide Girls look, gets mad points for playing Animal Crossing? I am mad at her because she is associating my fine Christian name w/an STD and stealing a pseudo-dreamjob.
