I've only ever played the original Splinter Cell on Xbox, but I loved it. Good place to start I'd say.

MrWally · 03-15-2009, 03:39 PM

Well I don't have any consoles so I'll have to start on PC. Anyone know if the ports are decent?

**Samuel Dravis** · 03-15-2009, 04:27 PM

Yes, the ports are IMO better. I've played the original game, Pandora Tomorrow, and Chaos Theory on PC. I played the original on Xbox and it was more difficult to aim (just the typical problems of shooters on consoles, I guess).

If you suck at shooters on consoles that is

I'm actually, ehem, acquiring, Chaos Theory for PC, seeing as I forgot how TOTALLY F***IN AWESOME that game was.

GeneralPloKoon · 03-15-2009, 09:08 PM

CT Was the coolest on xbox....but the PC version should be up to par with the xbox version.

I suppose I'll join you in that endeavor.

Da_man · 03-15-2009, 11:31 PM

I have Pandora Tomorrow and the original. I was thinking of getting Chaos Theory, but eh, I'll get it later.

However...

Double Agent is a MEAN Motherf**ker when it comes to sneaking around in the JBA HQ.

Oh, and Sonic a kicking my a$$. Stupid Marble Zone. Bringin' back a lot of good memories though.

Got to the large lake level about half way through the game. Went to work, realized the entire (obvious) twist of the game's story and texted my brother the secret. Went home, played another hour... accidentally booted ourselves out (selected Continue?: No) after Sheva lost a few pounds thanks to the friendly chainsaw maniac.

And developing a system of co-operation with two people is great. I play Chris, my bro plays Sheva. I've got the pistol, MP5, Dragnov, and Stun Baton with grenades. Bro has a better pistol, the Ithaca shotgun, the RPG-7, and Stun Baton and deals with a lot of the healing equipment. Inventory space is clausrophobic as hell, too. I'm usually pretty loaded with 3 guns, their ammo, a melee vest, and the stun baton -- taking up 8 spaces, leaving one for either health or grenades... kind of a pain. But meh.

Game is awesome, especially in co-op... even with split screen the game still looks amazing... people don't look like action figures like in MGS4... Also, buy the stun baton ASAP, that thing kicks ass and doesn't need reloading.

Oh, and about the demo...

If you played and liked RE4, no reason not to get RE5.
If you played and didn't like RE4, this isn't really gonna change your mind that much.
If you've never played RE4, the demo isn't that good of an intro and just realize the demo levels are abnormally hard and unforgiving. So if you like it but kicked your ass, just imagine it more fun and being somewhat easier.

Brilliant GAME! Brilliant Co-op. Going through the campaign with Lynk Former right now. It is also the source of my excessive insomnia the last 3 nights. I HAVE the game, though I don't technically own a copy yet. I have it on check out from work, until I get my lost debit card replaced. I guess you could say loosing my debit card was my unlucky Friday The 13th story. I had just got my income tax money too. Damn!

Da_man · 03-16-2009, 03:25 PM

Found an old speaker and subwoofer system my dad had, and hooked it up to my computer. Played Iron Man by Black Sabbath.

IT'S AWESOME

You haven't lived until you heard Iron Man blasted full strength from a good sound system.

The Live version is TEN TIMES AWESOMER. BTW.

MrWally · 03-16-2009, 06:20 PM

That's AWESOME!

Pie™ · 03-16-2009, 06:52 PM

Nah, screw Iron Man, test that sucker out with some Ufomammut.

Da_man · 03-16-2009, 11:18 PM

That, sir, is some serious bassitude going on there.

**IG-64** · 03-17-2009, 03:12 PM

This is what I spent close to my entire spring break doing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHL7B98xxo0&fmt=18

For animation class. The fact that I finished it in time is a good thing.

I am completely ignorant here and am pretty sure it takes much more work than it looks. What exactly goes into making one of these?

MrWally · 03-17-2009, 07:05 PM

I'm going to guess that he individually drew (whether its digital or not I can't tell) every frame.

TiE23 · 03-17-2009, 07:20 PM

Saw Watchmen finally. Solid movie.

And finished RE5 in co-op with my bro. Final boss was a ****ing bitch to figure out. Then easy to do.

Weapons for Chris: MP5, SVD, Stun Baton/Grenade Launcher. Weapons for Sheva: M3 Shotgun, Pistol, Stun Baton/SVD.

**Samuel Dravis** · 03-18-2009, 12:04 AM

Recently got:

a bunch of T-shirts from woot and threadless

Hardcover copy of Watchmen

more stuff today:

A couple of shirts and a cd from an Austin band that I really like (they're lots of fun live)

edit: I just realized I have around 1.5 billion t-shirts...

Commander Obi-Wan · 03-20-2009, 04:25 PM

I FINALLY sent in my repair request for my xbox after like 4 months.

Totally can't wait to be gaming again.

Darth Avlectus · 03-21-2009, 03:37 AM

Pirates are win.

Especially ones as hawt as her. Amiright? Oh yeah.

TiE23 · 03-21-2009, 01:01 PM

I tried reading the One Piece manga a few years ago... I just descended into an unintelligible mess within a volume or two. But yeah... 'kay...

So, why are you posting your fapping materials in this thread?

**RoxStar** · 03-21-2009, 06:00 PM

New rig!

CPU: Core 2 Quad Q6700 @ 2.66 ghz
RAM: 8 gb (yes that you read that correctly) of Kingston ram
HD: 750 gb Seagate SATA hard drive
DVD: Sony SATA DVD Burner
OS: Windows vista 64 bit (yes, I begrudgingly installed it)
Video Card: My old Radeon x800 Pro Pci-e (lolz

)

Runs microsoft word and firefox pretty well

MrWally · 03-21-2009, 10:25 PM

Oh wow, I didn't realize it was a Q7600. I think earlier you said Q6600. That's insane!

I'm jealous

GeneralPloKoon · 03-22-2009, 09:20 PM

Yep, they were drawn in pencil on individual printer pages. It was 150 frames in total.

That's so impressive. I'd never have the time or patience for something like that. Kudos to you, man.

BongoBob · 03-23-2009, 06:56 PM

God damnit, why did the original comparison images that Rhett (least I think it was him) made get lost to the internet ><

In other news, my Coheed and Cambria Neverender: Children of the Fence Edition Boxset arrived today, and it's amazingly fantastically awesome. Not only is my name in the book cause I ordered early, but I was one of the first 3000 to order it, and got a signed copy
