re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
How are we enjoying Battlefield 3? The maps are SUCH a colossal improvement over Black Ops. I think there are some questionable decisions - F18s with no flares and only guns to start, steep learning curve for choppers, etc. But this feels like a state of the art shooter.

The choppers have always been tough in BF games, but I guess that's only fair because a good chopper pilot can really wreck shit up. |

I played and honestly I think River Raid is a better game. I even got a patch for my high score, lets see your BF3 do that!

I can remeber getting a game and saying gee I hope some day the graphics will be as good as the picture on the box. Boy have we come a long way.

re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
There's a fine line between crap and classic. I bought the Intellivision Lives package from XBOX Live. $15 and you get every Intellivision game ever made. I was amazed how bad the "graphics" were but these games will always hold a special place in my heart.
Two of my all-time Intellivision favorites: Baseball - still probably the best baseball game I ever played ![]() Astrosmash - loved this game, I used to play it hours on end until my console was about to explode ![]() Last edited by CrazyCanuck; 11-03-2011 at 04:57 PM. |
