As the name suggests, this here is a thread to discuss video games until we get the old forum back. Anything to do with games is fair game here (pun intended), be it rants, gushes, news about what's new and all that good shit.
Yeah, anyway I just bought Katamari for PSP and I fucking love that game! It's so original and downright adorable I just can't put the little fucker down. Basically the idea is you have a ball and you have to go around rolling various objects up in it, and as you get more and the ball gets bigger and bigger you can pick up larger objects as you're ball grows. Has anyone else played the games in this series?

How much are PSPs nowadays? I've been wanting to try that game Patapon just because the music's catchy, but am iffy to buy a system there's, like, two titles that interest me for.

Not too sure, probably a couple of hundred $ where I am, but unless you're an Aussie that info is probably kind of useless to you (i.e. it's most likely considerably cheaper, you lucky foreign bastards).

I miss my precious Sleeper Hits topic, still deciding whether or not to resurrect it here. In my life news: I am still obsessed with getting Mount & Blade. I have money its just that I have trouble asking to use someone's credit card to get it (anxiety disorder.)

I have money its just that I have trouble asking to use someone's credit card to get it (anxiety disorder.) Lol, the sleeper hits thread is what inspired this one. I wanted to gush about katamari but realised that since the old boards are temporarily fucked, I had to create a new thread for that sort of thing. If you do want mount & blade why not just use a bittorrent to download it? Usually if a torrent is verified by the community it won't have viruses so as long as you're careful you should be ok. And you don't have to pay a cent for it.

Well, I wanted to do that until I could get my hands on a legit copy, but there are so many different versions that it is hard to find a compatible crack. Also, if there is a hell then there is a special place for people who pirate indie games and never pay for them.
I am proud to say that I pirated Spore though.

Yeah, M&B is probably the only game I wouldn't pirate. You can still download and pay for the game through the official site. In other news, RE5, Sims 3 and Empire Total War all come out over the next couple of weeks

Can't you just get a pre-paid debit card and buy Mount & Blade with that?

Can't you just get a pre-paid debit card and buy Mount & Blade with that? Well that would be a lot harder than what I have to do. I asked my brother if he could use his e-bay account to get it for 15 USD, but he doesn't have that much money (college kid.) All I have to do is Plan B: Ask my mother, but its friggin' 3 in the morning. Plus I can sense her judgment of me buying yet another video game (not really but I do feel guilty about it.)

I wish LocoRoco 2 had more levels and less minigames.

I played the Empire demo and wasn't too thrilled. I mostly just play for the campaign mode and the battles are quick and dirty. I don't put too much thought into strategy. Also, my feeble mind couldn't comprehend commandeering the naval battles. I'll check out Sims 3 when the whole game is released, i.e. when the expansions are out.

These days, I mostly play Rock Band 2 and a few XBLA titles (I'm addicted to Heavy Weapon still, and Geometry Wars). Plus I'm a huge fan of the Koei Warriors series (Dynasty, Samurai, Orochi) and love beat 'em ups in general.
