Teh (not yet) OFFICIAL What Are You Playing Thread? -
07-11-2005, 05:32 PM
We had one of these a bunch of months back...
Im not all too original a forum-thread-maker, but I was getting kinda curious, cause Im itching for a new game, and really dont find anything all too appealing (SP?) from the newest released games.
Oh, yeah, post screenies, too.
Well, I started playing Madden '04, which I got free with my videocard, and played that for around a week before I left for Mexico, leading the 49r's with a fabulous score of 2-8 during the preseason, but it got a little boring after I kept losing, and plus, not having a gamepad, I kinda felt like a loser just presing "WASD" over and over again, with a Q here and there. If I ever pick up a game-pad, I'll reinstall it.

So then I went through my stack of magazine demo CD's in a shoebox in my closet, and decided to install the Evil Genius demo that was on one of them. I think I might get it - I never thought base-building would be so fun, but it turned out to be, as I built interrogation rooms, captured spies (Chan!) and all that stuff. If theres nothing else any better, I'll pick up a copy.

Oh yeah, and finished the game Vietcong last night. Worst game I've ever bought.

How about you guys? Screenies are a plus...anyone here have Freedom Force? Im kinda thinking about that, too..

I'm going to hire Misc to kill you for saying shit about VC. Your graphics suck, by the way.

Isnt my screenie - I got it off Google.
Vietcong was dull, there was hardly ever a highlight, and it kept repeating itself after the 278th jungle crawl in search of bright muzzle flashes. Plus, I hated the fact that before every mission you spent atleast ten minutes LOOKING for the enemy, and when you finally found him, you wasted them in less than 30 seconds, unless they were hidden, which then they would fire at you from 500 meters away and kill you in an instant, forcing you to replay the entire mission all over again, plus the pathfinding. And the tunnel rat missions... cuss:

Did you have the uncensored version? It's so much better than the US. So much racial slurs and cursing, made MP so much fun.

No, mine was rated Teen, but from what I saw, I was pretty amazed by that, as "Shit" was spoken too many times to count. But while in combat, the squaddies didnt cuss - only the Power Ranger slogans, like "Rock and roll!" and "You die, VC!"
