Hangout The Games Hangout Thread

[Arrogance]

Thanks Riki . I didn't know the next installment for AC was coming out so soon. I am very curious what the multiplayer would be like. That was something I never saw coming with this series.

Spoiler

Another thing I'm worried about with the series in general is if it will remain as good when the fight moves out of the past through the animus and into the present. I have high hopes but it does bother me a bit that the feel of the game might change (possibly for the worse) with the setting changing to modern times. Hopefully doing medieval assassination techniques will translate well into the new setting, lol.

Can't stop playing Monster Hunter o__o

and Dante being in the game is nice!

 

[riki]

Dante is in the game? Sweet! I'm still playing the beginning portion of the game so where do you find him?

 

[Weapon_X]

I've never ever played any Marvel v Capcom games but since it's Dante in there, that will be the only reason for me to buy the game.

 

[Arrogance]

I used to play Marvel v Capcom in the arcades when i was little. I used to have a crap load of fun with them. Never had them for one of my systems though. I think I would prefer an arcade version over a system one though. You get a different feel of things playing arcade machine style.

How about buying a fighting stick, so get the arcade feeling at home too? :P Bought one last week and am still adopting to the stick, as there is no edge for up,down,left,right, so QCF/QCB are hard to made perfectly.

I'm not exactly enamored with the new visual style for MvC 3, but as long as it plays the same as the past games... I can't really complain.

 

[riki]

Here is some info about the gameplay:

- MvC3 is using the Tatsunoko vs. Capcom scheme to be more accessible, but will retain stuff like Hyper Combo cancels, Snapbacks and assists.
- Marvel vs Capcom 3 will have simplified launch attacks which are universally performed with one button, the “Exchange Button”. You can counter exchange moves by guessing the correct exchange move to input at the same time as your opponent.
- Deadpool has a teleportation move but it will malfunction if you use it too much. He breaks the fourth wall just like in the comics by beating up his opponents with his health bar.
- Chris Redfield uses two weapons from Resident Evil 5, his shotgun and the shock stick.

I think it's hilarious that Deadpool can beat people up with his health bar.

In other news, Kingdom Hearts: BbS has a release date of Sept. 7th. It will also be included in a PSP bundle which can unfortunately only be bought from Gamestop.

The bundle includes: A "Mystic Silver" PSP-3000 system, Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep on UMD, a yet to be announced movie and a 4GB memory stick Pro Duo.

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood will have a beta multiplayer mode.

Preorder bonus has been announced.

Been plying Dante's Inferno fro last two days. Didn't work for me, Devil may Cry and God of War are much better in the same genre. I m kind of disappointed in this game.

 

[Weapon_X]

Bought God of War 1 and 2 for the PS3. Very good quality.

Sonic 4 gameplay

Sorry for the spam.... but all I have to say is

 

[riki]

I'm so excited for Sonic 4. Too bad it got delayed until later this year.

There was a leaked video of the last stage, but it was removed from Youtube unfortunately. From what I remembered, there were a lot of cogs.

 

[shaheer]

taking my time and playing God of War 3......

 

[Shiro-kun]

Sonic 4 looks interesting haha ,

I hadnt really been into Sonic since the advance games so this might get me back into the series.

 

[Weapon_X]

Oooh! Gran Turismo 5 comin' out in Winter 2010.

PS3 sales are gonna go beyond anything.

They better have saved more good games for next year aswell...

 

[thornofcarrion]

Gran Turismo is my favorite series in car racing genre. The realism, the variety, and upgrades make this game pure win.

Does anyone played Red Dead Redemption?

It has a score 9.5 / 10... o.0

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/reddeadredemption/index.html?tag=topten%3Ballimg%3B1

I just wanna see how good it is before buy it..

 

[riki]

My brother has the game and played a little bit of it. He likes it so far.

BTW, they are going to air the Red Dead Redemption animated film this Saturday 12 AM EST. It will be on Fox in the USA, but I don't know if they'll show it in other countries.

Sega is making another Sonic game called Sonic Colors.

There's not much to say about Sonic Colors just yet, except that Sega's promising the Wii game will apparently "seamlessly combine both 3D and classic 2D gameplay perspectives." I don't want to be cynical, but it wouldn't be out of line to say that we've heard that one from Sega before.

In Sonic Colors, the hedgehog is tasked with saving the mysterious alien race the Whisps from the clutches of Dr. Eggman Robotnik. As Sonic collects the various Whisps, he'll gain powers from each of them, such as "drilling through the ground" or "speeding through the stage as a laser."

I only saw the first hours of the game being played by a friend of mine. Looks awesome, sounds awesome, but has a lot of riding in it. XD The world is gigantic, I think so at least, if I wasn't to drunk at that time. haha
