Dooby has lost it....

so when did you order it?

Dooby · 27-11-2003, 10:20

few days ago, but on the 'cheap skate' free shipping thing on amazon, so maybe have it on saturday, maybe next week

Tezcatlipoca · 27-11-2003, 18:32

Cool

You gonna get back into playing XBL then?

Dooby · 29-11-2003, 09:20

well its arrived, played through training and the first mission thing ( basically still training ... ) looks awesome...

gonna try out the voice commands later ( not sure when i will get the chance though )

tez, tbh the main reason i stopped playing on live is cos everyone started playing on newer games and I wasnt really that drawn to RTCW, I had been holding out for SWG but that looks increasingly like it just aint gonna happen...
anyway, I know have a list of live enabled games to buy over christmas ( cos no other f*cker will buy them for me ) including PGR2, maybe amped 2, and Halo2 as soon as it comes out... there were some others, but i forget...

anyway, i may be around tonight later, if not sunday, will look out for you all

Tezcatlipoca · 29-11-2003, 16:03

Cool. Hope to see you online in RS3 & PGR2

I admit you got that right!!

Its arcadey a bit yet still realistic. A good mix IMO

lol by the time you two get into the online play, people will have moved on to Counterstrike... the Xbox Live public are a fickle fickle bunch!!!

Perhaps....but if CS is a bad as some people are saying, then I can see people moving back to RS3.

only downside to rs3 is that my wife now thinks i am mad cos i used the voice command thing in single player...

took three attempts to explain that i wasnt playing against/with other people LOL

[off topic]Actually CS isn't all that great-the game looks good & everything like that, but I just don't think it's suited to a console.

Maybe it's just because I've played it on PC, but I wasn't that impressed.

Counter-strike is a simple game on the pc in my view. It isn't to do with the graphics or anything. It the fact u can go round sniping and hunting players and that basic formula is why it so successful. I have no idea whether it'll work well on a console because you need to have lightening fast reactions. I wouldn't judge it on the graphics but more on gameplay.

Dooby · 01-12-2003, 14:36

i think the reason CS does well on the pc is because it isnt UT or Quake, i.e. it is more 'tactical', especially given the 'once you are dead you are out'.
I am not sure how it will fair against something like rainbow six, as that seems to include a certain amount of the gameplay elements that made CS stand out...
