    I tried San Andreas yesterday and man is it terrible

    I saw it on Xbox Originals, and came close to buying it, until I remembered that I'd generally disliked the GTA games because of their terrible protagonists.

    I like San Andreas but that might have been because I didn't play Vice City or play GTA 3 that much. I also really like the idea that you could get fat or skinny or really buff in that game

    I am a big fan of the Klonoa games, they did some pretty awesome stuff with the whole inflatable enemies thing.

    you mean Dig Dug?

    Similar I guess.

    Yeah I ignored that one and vice city. No, Rockstar, I'll buy the next one that's on a new fucking engine.

    You missed out, brah. Loved Vice City. San Andreas had trouble keeping my attention, but Vice City was wonderful.

    Yeah, GTA4 was the first game where I didn't feel like the protagonist deserved to die on general principles. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

    Probably Morrowind, at the age I first played it I'd never experienced anything like it. The world was also very unique and visually fascinating. Ive never been more engrossed in a game than when I realised "hey, I can just go anywhere!" when first playing it.

    Hearing the sounds from the game (the creaking of the opening ship interior, the sound of Silt Striders, etc) just sends me to nostalgia heaven.

    I also didnt overplay it, so the magic is fresh for me.

    I don't understand why people think Morrowind has a more interesting world than Oblivion

    It is just

    brown brown brown mustard brown brown black greeny-brown

    It is the most boring world

    You should totally play the artificial girl series. You get to make these nifty clothes, a whole wardrobe in fact and the best part is you get to dress up girls and watch them strut around with your awesome new designer outfits!

    It's certainly not a series without it's flaws but Dawn of War is still fucking awesome. I can't wait till the sequel.

    Its more the world of Morrowind felt so far away, it felt like such an escape from reality, perched on the edge of an empire, always hinting at something bigger, like a good book, the way the rest of tamriel was referenced made you feel like part of such a large world. Oblivion kind of ruined that a bit by revealing that the largest city in Tamriel looks and feels like a glorified stone-statue. Though dont get me wrong I loved Oblivion, its just Morrowind felt more believable. It felt like a shitty outpost in the middle of back-water province, this gritty unearthing of its hidden stories and history was much more satisfying than the Oblivion's fairly generic depiction of a 'stormwind' kind of capitol.

    And yes it was a lot of brown, but there was some interesting environments and characters for its time. If you look at all the cities and societies at work there it was a bit more textured than the wastelandy appearance would lead people to believe. This is just my experience with it though.

    It should be pretty incredible now that they're going to use the same engine as CoH. If any game could benefit from destructible environments, Dawn of War is it.

    Oblivion was a lot less boring if you rode everywhere instead of just fast traveling.

    It annoys the shit out of me this never got a next-gen sequel:

    I cant even count the amount of hours my friends and I wasted on that game. You could beat the other team into a pulp to win the game. And swear at people. Also Androids vs Demons. Swearing at each other.

    More people should play this game.

    Plus Cyrodiil was supposed to be a big jungle-type area with awesome shit instead of Lord Of The Rings Land
