Does everything go cheap on black friday or just games? I seen a video once of some guy saying Steam done so many deals on black friday but i has no clue.

Just about everything category but not every product. I'd love to see Deus Ex listed on there as half off, but alas.

So, I was looking for Christian games. Found Vatican Wars.

It's like Mafia Wars, but with priests. Top priest gets to become Pope. There's two factions, the socially conservative side and the socially liberal side, so, anyone can enjoy the game.

Vindictus is available for Europe now, in case nobody knew.

What I like about the game:
Battle system has a not too steep learning curve, with videos in the game to reteach each move.
Fast paced.
NPCs have large photos when talked to, with the words large and clear.
Good music.
Hot weapons and armor.
Crafting weapons and armor is easy or can be bought.
Not incredibly hard to find a party.
Fishing has its own, realistic environment. Sail off on a ship. Can pretty much spend all day on a boat and chill.

Dislike:
Dislike that there's no Global server, which means only playing with players locally. That's because it works on a Peer to Peer system. If party leader has a crap connection, everybody lags.


Had it on my PC for a while so retried it last night.


DL'd Silkroad Online tonight, after years of not playing it. Was reminded how much it sucks. I don't understand why it has such a large fanbase now, when the controls are clunky and there's no option for walking with WASD.

Looking for something special.

Sunk a lot of hours into Skyrim lately... built a cool fireplace though:

That's hawt.

Here's a few more in case anyone still isn't convinced that this is one of the prettiest games ever made:

yea, skyrim is beyond awesome

I really want to get Skyrim!

Anyone here play Empire Total War or Company of Heroes?

company of heroes the RTS game? used to play that a bunch

there is a mmo now of CoH right? never tried it

I used to play all the TW series before I moved and left my comp behind, my dad still plays ETW though and he likes it.

Poor draggies... *sniffles*

My DC Universe Online heroine. Punchbuggy.

Good game. Only thing driving me crazy about this game is that I wish there were more quests because leveling is taking a while. Otherwise, it's a lot of fun. Great customization in the looks, costume and battle department. I have Punchbuggy setup to be a brawler, using her fists as her weapon instead of the other choices. She can run at the speed of light and leap off tall buildings. I gave her teleknetic powers, so she can lift enemies and throw them.

Cheatley says being a bad guy is more fun, so I might make an alt soon.

You really like pink huh

Nah, I was just going to name her Aunt Flo but the name was taken.

My sis is doing her black friday shopping and wanting to know what I want. I'm stuck between Deus Ex or Skyrim. I prefer medieval to sci-fi, though Deus Ex looks cool. But then it's like, I wonder if the game would have better maneuverability on a PS3 or on PC. And my computer meets the minimum requirements, but I'm not sure if the quality will be worth getting it for PC.

Okay, I see Skyrim has crafting, option to have a relationship, and most of all, I can be a girl character. So I think Skyrim it is, but still questioning whether to go PC or PS3. Anto, have you experienced any lag with your PS3 yet? I'm been reading that once the save file gets to be 6--8mb, some people have experienced lag.

i got it for xbox and never have lag; large save files in multiples no problem. i imagine the ps3 would even run it better, but i dont have one.

got to level 30 with no lag, so cant imagine expecting any anytime soon.

unless you have a top notch pc and video card, i would go with ps3 version because the game is just stunning. i prefer the controller to a mouse and keyboard as well, but each their own.


i heard good things about dues ex, i'll probably get that when its on the cheap. skyrim is one the few rare games i bought day it came out, and i'm glad i did.

i havent played any gears of war since this game came out lol

This is so difficult. Why did I have to look for Deus Ex trailers? LOL.



Eyegasmic



Well, my birthday's in January...

true lol

if you get it plz clue me in on how it is!

but yea, skyrim is GOTY pretty easily me thinks

Just finally figured out how to play PS2 games on my PC. Oh yeah. *sways to the left, sways to the right*

Been at this game two years now hehe
