FPSes are about shooting things.

Modern FPSes don't even have any killing at all.

You just sit and watch second-rate cinematics.

Deadspace thinks your funny.

We got a proverb in Poland:

We have ? I haven't heard it, but maybe I know it in different version.

Deadspace is shit, new RPGs are shit, new FPS are shit.

Only RPG I have enjoyed released in the last 5 years came out a few weeks ago: Dark Spire. And that's because it tries to be like a game from 1986, can't go wrong with that. No stupid directions, no getting everything explained, and dead people actually stay that way after a battle, it's heavan.

And no bloody bloom.

Why does this look so good? Wireframes in high resolution!
What system is this for? I really don't have the money to buy any handheld console right now but this looks like a good game.

I don't feel like reading oodles and oodles of his text until my eyes are bloodshot. He should hire voice actors.

Come to think of it, his site's user interface is godfuckingawfully ugly, and I get no directions whatsoever on how to browse it.

I didn't feel immersed at all browsing his site, what a failure.

Being born in any given year is no excuse for bad taste.

Anyone born close to, during or after 1990 is and should automatically be excused for having terrible taste. The alternative would be complete liquidation of said age-group.

depends more on what games you grew up with , i guess.
but if you where born in or later then 1989 it prob means that you are one of the Generation Playstation.

Quoted for spelling. And games are tied to date of birth, so they're kind of the same thing anyway.

Says all you need to know, right there.



Bullshit, I was born in 1989 and yet this didn't prevented me to play (with time as I grown up) good games like LBA 1 and 2, FAllout 1 and 2, Planescape, Kotor 2... I say that guy is simply retarded and is mentally unable to think something intelligent, that's all.

I have a state of the art gaming pc.... yet I've played (and finished) more Doom, DukeNukem and especially Blood than all those fancy bloomy fps's. These games with mouse support are just a thrill ride. I miss the days of detailed bitmap/sprite gore :)

As someone mentioned before, some RPGs of old required people to take out a sheet of paper and a pencil and actually write down where things were, who people are, or even draw maps, because the game lacked the details to provide such things.
I'm three years older than him and he makes me feel like I'm a fucking dinosaur. I want to stab him with a knife, cut him up and eat him. Holy fucking shit...

NDS.
Most of its games work fine in an emulator, btw.

I don't buy it. You should both be burned in the fires of righteousness.

EDUITT: Also, the games you mention are shit.
