Tesla rife is brilliant!!

I'm just playing the Sims 2, with University, Pets, Nightlife, Open For Business, Family Fun Stuff and Glamour Life expansion packs, but I need more!

Just finished it again, got the bad ending this time. Im a little dissapointed that the butcher costume doesnt come with the helmet. So far I have all the accolades except Brawler, explorer, cartographer and sprinter.

That Bad Ending is a major head fuck... I can't remember how many accolades I achieved, though I do keep meaning to go through it again, I'll have to check.

Still playing Soul Calibur IV. It's awesome. It just seems that my favorite character isn't meant for online play, because all his good attacks are through stances, which are hard to pull off fast online. And then there is Taki. She's supposed to be the fast ninja character, but the problem is, the only fast attacks she's got are normal jabs. All the good stuff is immensely slow. She is a miss character.

I sure hope your not turning into one of those "tourney clowns" who take a video game waaaay to seriously for their own good. Super Smash Bros Brawl has been ruined with the likes of them. (No items, final destination etc.) All of a sudden you got some comite of fat, zit faced teenagers (or fat, zit faced adults) who decide wich characters and stages are banned because of:

1) the character in question can do a move that Fox can't defend against.

2) the stage has a feature where Fox can't use his signature moves to its full potential.

3) the stage has "hazards". Seriously, stage hazards make the game fun.

Funny thing is, if you ask them why they wont just ban fox, theyll explain thats impossible because hes everyones favorite. Yes, tourneyfags are furfags aswell.
Should you ignore their self made up rules, theyll either bitch and moan throughout the game. Or downright refuse to fight you. I can imagine some stages and characters are already banned in SC IV.

Their bad people. Don't follow their example, M'kay?

Hehe I won't. I still play Taki, I am just annoyed that she is a "ninja" yet all her useful stuff has to come through a stance or roll, which are impossible to pull off against an opponent spamming vertical attacks.

The people I am pissed off with, or those who say "Algol is overpowered, because he is the boss/he can shoot bubbles". I don't spam bubbles, so learn to deal with it! And then the people who complain over the online play. I have seen so much worse. Sure, you are going to lose to a spammer / button masher because of lack of reaction time once in a while, but that's to be expected. Don't say it's unplayable just because you can't flex your god damn guard impact skills, I give nada about them. There will always be lag, there will also be idiots online, deal with it!
I am not taking a stance against people who get ticked off by lag, I am taking a stance against pro's whofeel so good, that they recommend you never play online, because you can't pull everything off perfectly.
But I do not like people who are too noobish either. I am thinking of this guy who kicked me because I was able to block his attacks :S

RIght now im playing Uncharted. Theres this surprizing feature that allows me to play the game completely in dutch. But the dutch voice actors sound incredibly retarded. Its both funny and embarrassing.

This game is also known as "dude raider"

I just gave RE outbreak a go and gave up after 30 minutes. Theres this time trial thing in it that bugs me alot. I know its realistic and all (virus infecting you etc.) but its REALLY frustrating when you cant figure out wich way to go. And your just running around exploring rooms (each with a 6-10 second laoding time, even for a damn toilet) and the same zombies keep spawning, if their not following you into rooms. I think I bludgeoned the same dude for like 5 or 6 times but hes there everytime I enter the room.

Its nice having 2 sidekicks run around, but not when they run ahead of you to pick an item up you spotted. Sure you can request and give away items, but im already having enough trouble finding a damn key, the last place I wanna look is my buddies pockets.

I picked the cop guy cause I thought having a good gun at the start would be good for a player of my type (kill everything, then explore the area comfortably) his backstory is that he didnt get accepted into STARS. No shit, last time I checked, they didnt hire MORONS. And that says something seeing they hired Brad "chickenheart" Vickers.

Also a bad time to be reminded of the occasionally atrocious camera.

I think ill let this game collect dust a little bit longer. At least I bought it cheap or it wouldve gone straight back to the store.

^The timed viral infection part of the game took the fun out of it for me as well.

Right now I am playing SH: Origins again with the Tesla rifle. I feel more like a "cleaner" than a victim now. "I shall rid all evil and monstrosities in this town."

I have to get back on my opinion on RE outbreak. I gave it another shot and got used to the controls more. You see, I tend to have "wtf is this shit" as an opening response to alot of things. But I tend to like it better on a second go.

The timed infection part intimidated me at first. But once you know how to deal with it, it becomes managable. (and once you know how long the levels are, and that it resets between scenarios) the levels also have a good replay value imo.

My first choice of character was a poor one I guess. But on my second go I tried David. (looks like Brad pitt, talks like Clint eastwood) and had a much better playing experience. I also noticed some details that unfortunately dont come out of the paint too well on single player mode. by accident, I found out you can block almost any door by pressing your body against it. Im sure this really richens the online experience. (Ill hold the door so you can search the area. etc.)

Then again, im pretty sure (online) co-op resident evil has been a dream of alot of fans.
