General Games Discussion

I started gaming too young to even remember but my mom says it was Super Mario Kart on the SNES when it came out.

First games I have solid memories of was Tetris on the Gameboy and watching my Mom play Wolfenstein 3D and Doom.

I remember watching my dad play Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and Duke Nukem 3D on an ugly, beige-colored PC that was supposedly top of the line at the time. It looked like it was covered in bird crap

I vaguely remember watching someone else play that Dr. Mario Tetris game on Gameboy. I'm pretty sure I used to like the theme song for that game. Nothing beats the Sonic the Hedgehog game theme song, though.. that song is nostalgic as f*ck. It probably sounds dorky and silly to people who didn't grow up playing the game, but to me, man... right in the childhood

So I actually went and ordered some computer parts, gonna become the greatest Scandinavian truck driver ever

One of my earliest memories was playing Nights into Dreams on the Sega Saturn tbh

Although i'm pretty sure i played stuff before that.

Good choice; larger population than Battlefront




Euro Truck sim is pretty legit. There's a reason why it's been popular for so long.




If only this was a mod for GTA or Just Cause...

So Phritz are you taking the piss or not? hard to tell tbh

Taking the piss out of Battlefront (it had 100k on consoles peak so it's not dead on console), serious about Euro Truck Sim. Game is relaxation central.

Was on about the Euro Track stuff tbh

Although it's not my thing so probably wouldn't like it anyway but wasn't sure if you were being serious either way.

My first game was probably Mortal Kombat 2 on Sega.

Young, impressionable M99 being exposed to all that blood

Processor and graphics card arrived, I'm genuinely excited. Should get the rest of the components next week, then I can finally become a Scandinavian lorry driver

Recommend me some games FFS, where to start. My favorite ever game was SWKOTOR, so something with a great story.

If KOTOR was your favorite then try the Mass Effect Trilogy.

You can't go wrong with The Witcher 3.

Give GTA 5 a try, my personal favorite.

I wasn't aware you had played before, assuming that what types of games did you like other that SWKOTOR?

m99 is right about Mass Effect btw, if you liked KOTOR you should love that.

Also Dragon Age Origins is very KOTOR-ish in gameplay and it has an awesome story but you might find it a bit outdated considering it got released in 2009. First Mass Effect is also pretty old now.

But yeah Dragon Age Origins and Mass Effect is closest to KOTOR.

I will probably just continue playing CS 1.6 and Football Manager and I bought this shit for nothing Feels nice to having it though.

I haven't played many games, other than the two mentioned I also played Half-Life,GTA(older ones) and PES. Can't remember much else... Scarface about 10 years ago and something called Bloodrayne where I was a female vampire killing Nazi zombies.

Will try GTA V for sure, and Mass Effect it is

Witcher 3 depends on if you like that type of game, i love it ( obviously ) but if you are not into high fantasy and all that shit you might not like it. I say this to everyone who asks about it, i don't believe it's a game for everyone.

Same applies to Dragon Age even if the gameplay is more similar to KOTOR.

Definitely not into high fantasy.

Also I don't care if it's old, as long as it ain't in 8-bit it's cool, don't care about graphics much.

Yeah i'd steer clear of Dragon Age/Witcher then, also did you like when you played Half Life? There's a few games which are kind of like that, like Bioshock for example.

Half-Life was amazing for me TBH, both games.

BTW is that outsider made Black Mesa any good? I instantly thought about that.

If you loved Half Life then try Half Life 2: Episode One and Episode Two.

It's a continuation of the story. It's basically Half Life 3 ep 1 and ep 2 Gabe Newell said.

Yeah I played those too, I forgot. I also played Fallout 3. I loved that, so 4 is on the list.

Well I googled a bit, so Mass Effect is definitely first up

You could try out Fallout New Vegas too. A lot of people prefer that to FO4.

Now that's what I'm talking about... Can't wait for the rest of that computer to arrive FFS.

But will it be able to run all this? I have R9 graphics and a 4 core processor at 4 gigahertz. My friend who recommended these parts said I'll be fine with the new games for now.

Playing GC classics atm since there's nothing on the PS4/Xbone

Man, i miss some of these games Paper Mario, Luigi's Mansion, Mario Sunshine, FE, Starfox Adventures etc

Nintendo needs to get its shit together, nobody fkin about Yoshi woolly wonka world or kirby's yarn barn or whatever
