tl;dr

But what I get from that is some idiot bought the console version of a PC game.
That you can mod.
And make actually fun.
Also, it's an FPS, and those are only good with keyboard and mouse. Only. No exceptions.

Some people prefer console games to the PC.

At least the 360 version of Orange Box is well-done.

I don't FPS games on the 360.
They're just not as good.

The 360 has like no slowdown though, and looks amazing.
My computer cannot push all the pretty effects for Half Life.

Hell, once a portal is open my frame rates go through the floor.

I have Team Fortress 2 for the PC, but it lags so bad even with all the graphics options at their lowest... so I prefer the 360 version... and there are some mods in the 360 version, just not as much as the PC version, obviously.

No... ;_;

Let's just say my computer for no real good reason is ridiculously slow now. Even after virus scanning, even after deleting tons of adware and spyware crap... it's STILL slow... even after defragging... etc.

I'll probably eventually just empty everything from my hard drive and see if it does anything... I only have about 5 to 8GB left from my crappy 70GB hard drive.


But it might just be my #####ty internet router.

It lags a lot for me too, and it's because of the servers/internet connection.

I have to say though, HL2:E1 is more demanding than HL2.
I have everything set pretty low on 480x720 resolution, windowed, with only maxed textures and models. Worked great for HL2.  I could easily push more, but I have an integrated graphics card, and I like frame rates over 40fps. 30 is a bit too low for me.

Yeah, I max out my settings on pretty much every Valve game out there.
There are games I can't run 100% all the time, like GMod, but that might be because I have like 7000 addons for it.

Nova...
... are non-network applications still slow? I mean, I don't want to bog down this thread in techno-babble, but seriously, I've had similar problems before. If so, try out JkDefrag if you use XP. Works much better than the usual Windows defragmenter.

Got my hands on RE5 this weekend.

... yuck.

Game is pretty much what I expected and less.  Sheva is nothing more than Leon's briefcase with legs that can get you killed and keeps you from being able to do what you need to in your invintory if things get hectic.  It's all out action in sickingly straight path run and shoot style.  No exploration what so ever.  Even RE4 had more of a RE2/3 Racoon City feel than this #####.  I aboslutely HATE the "buy ##### and upgrade between chapters" bull#####.  God does that feel so out of place and mishandled.  At least the merchant made sense from a gameplay point and he was hella cool to boot!  The "checkpoint/autosave" ##### also just feels completely wrong and adds to the awful linear feel of the game.  And Sheva's AI is indeed awful.  Hop up on the roof with that ammo!  Think you should pick it up?  No?  Ok, just hop back down.  Hey pick up that ammo, I'm full.  No?   Pick it up.  No?  Pick it up.  No?  :: shoots lock off door :: pick up that ammo. GOOD JOB BITCH.  Waiting for those enemies to get closesr to blow them away, bam bam bam, hey could you NOT waste ammo?  Christ.

RE4 was a good game, but a #####ty RE game.  RE5 is just a #####ty game.  It wants to be an action game, but as I've seen people point out a LOT, it just doesn't play like one.  I'm mostly just going to go through it to see what spoilers are true and which aren't at this point, but I'm pretty sure the game does ##### all over certain main plot characters, so either way this will likely be my last RE game.

OH, and the BEST part?  Capcom's doing a Remake of RE2 for wii... AS A #####ING LIGHT GUN GAME ON RAILS.

Say hello to Umbrella Chronicles 2! I hated the first one.

And I so agree with Sheva's AI being #####. She wastes ammo on EVERYTHING, and then is like "I NEED AMMO"... geez. At least Ashley didn't waste my ammo and stayed behind me.

I'm not sure if they fixed this or not, but in the demo you can't tell her to stop and wait, only "go", and "keep going and die". Seriously, I'd rather she just stay behind me and watch. She makes everything a chore. And finally, at least in RE4 Ashley was only around for a few parts of the game. In RE5 you have Sheva ALWAYS...

I was playing on Normal before (as I've said in this topic before) and she still seems the same to me.

She never shot the boxes for me, either. Are you sure she's on Cover mode for you and not Attack?

Yes. But to be honest, she seemed to cooperate better when she was on Attack though.
 I still think there should be a Wait mode...

Like RE4, I plan to never play this unless I'm forced. RE4 was bought for me by a friend, and it so really totally isn't my kind of game. So I haven't played it in like a year/since he was here last.

Resident Evil 4 is about as much a Resident Evil game as Power Battles is a Mega Man game.  Still a good game, but doing something quite different from what the series actually was built on and is defined by.

Played a lot of Street Fighter over the break, SF4 and SF2 collection for the PS2. Also tried Portal for the first time, very wicked. I'm now set on getting a 360.

And now I'm playing Pokemon Platinum..

Get with the times, Gramps.
PCs are only for RTSs and Point 'n' Clicks.
So stop being ignorant.

Anyboo, I've been playing Street Fighter 4.
It's just a prettier Street Fighter 2.
So, it's pretty much the best worst fighting game ever.
It's beyond frustrating when you're doing badly, but you get an unparalleled feeling of accomplishment when you actually win or something.
So exactly like Street Fighter 2, 'cept you can play with random twelve-year-olds, at two in the morning, who say they've never played before, but just happen to have Akuma and can pull off ultra moves and get uber combos.

SO WHAT WAS THE POINT OF SSF2THDR!?!?!?

For every elitist that can kick your ass with Akuma, there's an idiot who doesn't know how to use Akuma, but uses him anyway because he's col like Protoman.

There are two things I don't like about SF4 though, C.Viper, and using the 360 controller to play it.

KEN IS THE BEST

I admit, I play as Ken, but I always have for as long as I remember playing Street Fighter. Balrog is even worse, when you're online, all they do is duck/block, and when you're close, they pop you in the face.

Blah... I'm terrible with everyone.
I normally play as Ryu, Dan (gay Ryu), Sakura (girl Ryu), Sagat, or Fei-Long.
I'm also completely unable to play as any character who needs to do any of that directional charging crap and all I can ever get Vega to do is take his clothes off.
The frosting on the frustration cake is that I can only ever beat Seth in round 2 by being super cheap. By being cheap I mean I spam grab moves and tripping kicks. I #####ing hate Seth, he's a big, naked douche bag.

I played for about an hour tonight.

It's easy to be good with Blanka.
I also like Fei Long.

Overall, I hate the control scheme of Street Fighter.  You have to learn each character's moves before you even stand a chance.
I prefer Soul Calibur for my fighting.

I don't really like fighting games at all. I excelled, sort of, at DBZ Budokai 2 and 3. And this random Naruto game my brother bought. I don't like either series but I was good at the games even though I never really played them? It's weird.

If anyone can get a Tetris times two, I'll buy them TWO and a half lunches.

And by times two, I mean waiting for the 8-block long Tetris piece. Yes, it exists.


Also, I left the game running for 30 hours before I finally lost.
