I am currently playing Resident Evil 4 for the Gamecube and San Andreas for the PS2

I'm playing GTA: Vice City for the PS2. I missed that one for some reason. I want to play RE4 for PS2...truthfully, from the screenshots I can't tell much difference in quality with the GC.

Vice City :thumbsup: I love that game.

Yeah, I can see how they used a lot of the improvements in VC as the basis for San Andreas. The frustration rate for some of the missions in VC is really bad though....

I played on PS2 and after on xbox. It's way easier on xbox. Some missions on Ps2 took me a few hours to succeed, but I managed to complete them on my 1st attempt on the xbox.
Weird. :headscratch:

Maybe it's because you already played it on PS2 before, so you already know the strategy on those missions when you played it on Xbox :sweat: .

Oops. :ashamed:
I guess that's more plausible, than they made the game easier. :sweat:

I'm currently playing Shogun Total War. I'll stop playing online games for a while to play this old school strategy game :bonk: :mrgreen:

Well, it was released in 2002 and the first ever Total War game. It didn't become that successful because warcraft 3 and battle realms are reigning the strategy game scene during that time :sweat: . And, it really require time and effort to play this game because this is not your usual strategy game. You will control a clan here were you have to develop your economy from the ground up, forge trade relationships, and strategic alliances, conduct espionage and order assassinations, and battle with other clans to conquer and unite Japan. In other words, this is a season by season game (you know, the "end year" stuff). So, like I have said earlier, it really eats up your time :mrgreen: .

The latest of this kind of game is Rome Total War, which is greatly accepted by many gamers. I would like to try this one too once I finish playing Shogun Total War.

I played the first Splinter Cell. Don't know why I waited. I ordered Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory for PC, but they're taking forever to arrive.

I hope it wouldn't be like the case of bmwracer's monitor :fingerscrossed: .

been spending countless hours on Civilization IV, which slowed down my progress with jdorama series...

I'm now with Final fantasy VII.
I already finished that game when it first came out, but I don't remember much about it, so I felt like playing again.

I want to buy it, but I have too much stuff to do. It's so hard to stop playing Civilization. :sweat:

yeah, its one of those games where if you liked it, its gonna make days look like hours... eseentially ruining your social life. hehehe



@krim: i also played civ3, both are good imo, well, all the civ series actually.
one of the problems i had with civ4 was that during the later stages is that it began to slow down -- DRASTICALLY. Good thing the new patch fixed it.

days into hours, reminds me of age of empires II, i was on that game for long stretches of time, but grew tired of it, and stopped playing it long ago, gave up on that one.

That's what happens to me when I play online games (level up games) :mrgreen: . My latest craze is Rising Force online, but I stopped playing that for a while to give way to Shogun Total War, which I find my time controllable than when playing online games :beaten: .
