Is Prototype any good?

Whats a good game to rent?

rented Bionic Comando last week, it was alright, could have been way better if there where more bosses.

Mkavanaugh77

What systems you have homie? Prototype is good... Hotspot spoke on a lot a few shows ago. Basically, fun as hell but it can be waaay too hard at some parts and frustrating as hell... It looks awesome though. You can do pretty much anything, eat people (badass), run up walls... jump across roofs, etc... it's like infamous but with an evil, confused, messed up main character who consumes people and has parasitic arms and ****.

Yea, i own a 360 and PC

Gonna get a PS3 when the price drops(I want a Ps3 but i know there will be a price drop soon, so im gonna wait)

Had a Wii from day one, sold it, did not like it at all.

Havent beenplaying much lately because my controller is semi busted(left dpad wont work) and my mic broke, plus been working too much, and been tired.

I still want a PS3 though, i wanna play Killzone 2, MGS4, Uncharted, but gonna wait for that price drop

lol fix that **** man. You should rent Prototype... it's the only game I would consider renting atm. Have you played GTA4? If not... rent that. Best multiplayer ever. I thought Halo 2 was good back in the day, and WAW was dope when I played with my friends. COD4 was amazing too. But damn.. GTA4 has tons of variety and it's just waaay too much fun.

lol I just found out that the 4th Fallout 3 DLC was recently released. I have yet to catchup with the 3rd :?HaSheeSh_basic

Same:| I heard the fourth one is awesome, I need to cop both Broken Steel and the fourth one soon.

I heard about that as well, I think they've already released Operation Anchorage on a disk but I'm not sure. I'll probly just buy them off the marketplace though whenever I feel like jumping back into Fallout.

If anyone plays GTA4 on live add my gamertag (Jthemoosebee). I need some damn competition. I've been owning deathmatches like crazy.... Almost rank 3 and I've only played a total of like 12 hours on live... maybe less.

Also, does someone know how to set up games with friends on GTA4? Me and my brother always have to hop from game to game to get into a game with each other. And wtf can't I enter helicopters :(?

elpooz

I'm pretty sure there is a Party Mode you can use to set up games with friends its sorta like Free Mode if I remember correctly not sure though haven't played the game in a long *** time. Oh and you should always be able to enter helicopters. :P

Btw anyone here played through Prototype cause I'm at the last boss and i'm in bad need of some advice on good combos to use on it. Singleplayer can get mad frustrating on some missions  I died less playing through Infamous on hard than what I've done playing through Prototype on easy lol then again maybe I just suck. Its a great game though but damn a lot of cheap deaths in it. 

StarCraft II Multiplayer Gameplay

This game keeps getting better and better, plus the beta is coming really really soon.

Anyone seen the Fight Night Round 4 review on GS? What a piece of ****.

I don't like the foot speed of FNR4, it feels slower then the past fight night games.  The physics and punching control are superb though, I'd give it a 8.5 but that is just based off playing the demo. I haven't played the full game yet

andyboiii

I didn't like FNR4 at all, I think 3 was way better. It just looks kind of funny but the punching controls are very good like you said. Personally I prefer UFC over FNR.

We need to get an OTB Halo or GTA game goin online, BLB and myself played last night and it was pretty damn fun haha.Magna_Man109

Ya COD is dope ness but Halo Player Matches with BLB's buddy Zoni was so damn hilarious.

I'm down for some GTA, CoD or pretty much every other shooter except Halo when I get Gold (probably buying this weekend or next week) :P just hollerate at me on Live my nick is LiveFADE.

I just copped a new computer the other day can't wait to play some good RTS games again cause damn that basically a non existant genre on consoles. Btw anyone got some suggestions for some good PC games I mostly play RTS games and FPS games on the PC but I'm open to RPGs if they doesn't feel repetitive? Last games I played for the PC was Company Of Heroes, World In Conflict & The Orange Box other than that I haven't played any new releases since 06-07.

RTS: Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 and Sins of a Solar Empire...Both are really good especially the latter.

RPG: The last one I played was Mass Effect. If you have a 360, then you may have already played it, but I would say it's still worth it because it plays much better on PC and is worth multiple playthroughs. The only other one that comes to mind is The Witcher. I have yet to play it, but have heard really good things about it. It should be cheap now.

You should definitely get a steam account. They have lots of games on there old and new. I recently got both Max Payne's from there for cheap.

Mass Effect was aight, It had alot of flaws, but it was enjoyable.

The Witcher i bought, but igotta say i really cant stand RPGs on the PC, The Witcher is a great complex RPG but i just found it too boring after a while and stopped playing it.

I got a steam account my nick is F.A.D.E on it, and yeah Company Of Hereos = the ish. You played any of the expansion packs cause I'm most definitely checking them out now so wondering if they're any good?

Yeah I already played Mass Effect on the Xbox great game can't wait for the sequel which looks amazing and I already have a Steam account so i'm most likely going to starting buying games off it. I'll check Red Alert 3 out too cause I played the RA2 practically to death that has got to be one of my most played games of all time. Sins of a Solar System and The Witcher I saw some reviews for them now and they're looking good probably check them out as well. First on my agenda though will be Supreme Commander and the Crysis games. (last one basically to see how they look on my PC lol and I loved Far Cry so hopefully it will be some what similar)

Is fallout dope? I hear its like Oblivion but in the future... I think I'll rent it soon I've been so damn bored with Xbox. I guess I'll wait until Madden or something but even then I stop playing Madden once NBA 2k10 will come out.Magna_Man109

I'm lovin fallout. Im a lvl 13.

Btw, you can buy anchorage and pitt on a disc in stores for $20.

Not sure, but you could have watied a few months and just got GOTY version with al the DLC on it. 

TBT, i'm probably gonna get cod4 soon for the multi, so i'll come own you when I get on that. I haven't played in forever though... do you have WaW? I'll play you in that any time if you've got it...

and yankeagle, just stick with soldier or vanguard in Mass Effect if you don't want to learn how to use the bio stuff... I chose vanguard and it owns. it's basically a straight up shooter that can power up his weapons and use some bio powers (i never used them though...). there is engineer too... which doesn't have bio at all. if you really want to enjoy the game, just choose soldier. nothing is more fun than gunning the **** out of people in that game...

anyone watch that scribblenauts preview? i want the game even more now... can't wait.

if anyone has WaW or GTA4, hit me up and let me now... it would be dope to get an all OTB game going...

Fallout 3 is the best game of 2008. I got it in December and I still haven't gotten everything or discovered every location.

I think Oblivion is more fun because there's more things to do but Fallout is great, and there's tons of things to do.

you didn't choose the explorer perk at level 20 lol? gives you every location man...

Oblivion >>>>>>>> Fallout though. Well... to my knowledge. that might change after I get all of the fallout dlc. But I have Oblivion GOTY and like it way more than fallout 3 without dlc.

Yeah I have Explorer, but I still haven't visited all the places:P

I heard the 3rd and 4'th Fallout content is really dope. Broken Steel raises the lever cap to 30 and I heard Point Lookout is the best one yet. Exploring the swamps of post apocalyptic Marlyand= Win.

if anyone has WaW or GTA4, hit me up and let me now... it would be dope to get an all OTB game going...

i got both, but i suck at gta. but i think im pretty good at WaW, or id like to think that... :P

 ye setting an OTB thing sounds cool

GTA is such a hit and miss game for real... my brother is a monster at COD4, COD5, and Halo 3 but is horrible at GTA4...

I guess it just takes some learning of how to play it... Cause I used to suck and get last, but now I'm always the one with the most money, even when my team loses, and in deathmatch i'm always 1st or second.

alright i'll add you when I get home... is your sig gamertag still valid?

Rob update that damn sticky lol...

halftime: i'm gonna wait for GOTY and probably get that... i just hope they put everything on there. i heard anchorage and the pitt were wack though...

its jus really awkward for me playin online in GTA...seems way to different than offline...thts why i play COD. not a lot of difference in the online. the only game i play consistently online are the COD games...otherwise i dont really find myself playing others.

 and yeah my gamertag is in my sig. add me netime.

makaveli_89

I know what you mean, but if you learn how to really play, it is mad fun... more than cod imo.

Man... I'll break it down for yall... it hurts to know people can't have fun online with that game :P

You gotta click... that is like the golden rule. every gun, the pistol, smg, assault rifles, you click. small bursts from fast ass trigger smashing. that = mad kill streaks and victory. and you gotta learn how to use each gun well...

the pistol: you click at mid range and then just hold down and go on auto when close.

micro smg: small 2 second bursts (not clicking...) or clicking if the person doesn't see you (less ammo used and it's harder to be spotted)

assault rifles: click click click. easiest kills ever, because you have the best range and a strong ass gun. when close, small bursts like the micro smg. M4 is better for long to mid range shooting, while ak is best for mid to close range. with an ak, just spray the hell out of dudes at close range. with an m4, bursting is probably smarter.

smg: clicks... all day.... unless the dude is right in your face, just hold down.

rocket launcher: sucks unless you use it on vehicles or on dudes taking cover (blow up their wall or whatever or shoot the ground right next to their feet).

sniper rifle: snipe.... obviously.

projectiles: never use, ever.

shotguns: good if you're running up on a vehicle because a hit is guaranteed, unlike with the smg or micro smg. and obviously good when a dude is in your face... or if you have cover and dudes are running up on you.

oh and never get in a car... that is asking to get lit up. seriously, that = death and no kills unless you get lucky and run over a dude who isn't paying attention.

Nice tips but the car one is kind of iffy. Depends on the situation really. I've had massive kill streaks doing drive by's on suckersToriko42

Well it really depends on whether or not auto aim is on. If it is, you are most likely going to get lit up unless you're lucky and catch dudes sleeping. But if it's off, it's much easier to pick up kills with it. One on one, cars can be really good for kills, but in most games, you'll most likely never find dudes alone. You usually get one kill and then get owned by another dude. I only use them when someone else is in the car with me, like 2 other dudes, cause it's less likely that I'll get killed and you get kills like crazy with 3 dudes shooting at one target.
