I need a new game
« on: August 08, 2007, 07:29:31 PM »
Who wants to help me get into a good game for competition? I'm thinking DOA or SC or even Halo, something that I can compete in and something that is on 360 so I can practice. Or just throw me some ideas for anything.

Cheers!

Well - DOA, we do have Cools around, I just don't know what she is and isn't allowed to do anymore lool.

Also, you know I have a game night every thursday night - if you want to get into SC or SSBM, that'd be the place for that.

Halo - man that's scary.  lol   ;)


If you want to get into anything competitive - right now is kinda a odd time; all 3 games mentioned, other than DOA, are waiting on their new version.  So it's a odd time for competition.  HOWEVER - it's also a good time to get in and get the basics down, so that you have less of a learning curve later.

Do you like one on one strat?  Shooters?  Do you prefer to be doing something all the time, or do you want patience and long term strat rewarded?  Fighting games are about breaking down your opponent my friend, and that's not a 'fast' thing in all cases.  Halo - is FAST FAST FAST - but no patience really to it; making it ADD compliant -_-

I LOVE strategy.  But there's no setting up that in Halo - sure it's there, but it's ALL on the fly and for the most part short term feeling.  Fighting games - you have as much strategy as you need to overtake your opponent in each game, and then must have a over-arching plan to maintain that lead over as many games as you play...  I can rant on and on about philosophies on fighters if you go that route, trust me ;)

Yeah I really should have elaborated on this subject but it was late. Anyway I like Halo just fine and I'm more inclined to do 2v2's because there is a bit more strategy involved with a teammate but when it comes to Halo I play it with friends and I'm decent but I want to play something I can compete with. SSBM is okay but to practice I would have to go buy another game cube :( fighters I like because it's more personal and takes a little more finesse to play, I love Guitar Hero but I don't know when I'll be able to get myself a copy, but yeah I'd love to do Thursdays, but I'm at work until 1230 am mon-fri so that's kind of a bust. Not looking to be uber gamer star really but I like to compete, so that way since I belong to a group that is all about competition I can actually participate. 

@Godmode - right now I'm not playing much of anything the only games I have on 360 is Saints Row and Lost Planet

You know, I actually started looking into it last night and though "hmmm" sounds fun, then I started seeing all the glitches for it and was wondering if that effects your experience at all? I've never played it before because I was really turned off by the fact that all you do is jump from cover to cover and shoot, but the more videos I watch for it, the more fun it seems.

A lot of those have been patched out, and I don't really see many glitches being done now. Hit me up with a f/r and I'll school you. We play MLG settings, so we def. don't glitch.

Just make sure you add an extra quarter to the budget. Don't think I'll forget.  :P

I need to stop making these quarter bets...so far I've racked up 50 cents, at this rate I'm going to be poor.  :(

Halo 3 is definitely the best fantasy game for single player campaign and sometimes online.  I havent play COD but what i have heard the online competition is definitely better than halo 3.  I dont know of anything else that is good.  hope this helps.

if your lookiong for a skill game.  Pick up halo2 again, or Shadowrun.  Shadowrun is the ♥♥♥♥.    halo3 is a waste of money, GOW is a waste of money,  cod4 is fun but tis kinda noob friendly as well.
