I can't believe JT doesn't like BioShock?!?

I absolutely hated Bioshock, I only completed it because I was laid up with a twisted ankle and had nothing better to do! I just really don't like 1st person games, they just feel wrong to me, the only 1st person game I can honestly say I enjoy is Bad Company 2, I like to see my character, I don't want to pretend to be him/her!

lulz! i'll swap you for Hannah Montana

Erm, I'm hoping I can get most of my money back if I take it to somewhere other than GAME, it's still Â£40 everywhere else.

good idea, pick up Ace Combat 7 instead, that looks awesome!

Jaynestown · October 19, 2011, 08:16:36 PM

Does it, or is that a note of sarcasm I detect?

Hell no i love Ace Combat and 7 looks absolutely amazing, ima give the demo a whirl tonight as i DL'd it earlier!! I can't really get it until Jan/Feb, but it's definately on my 'to play' list!

I should finish 6 first though which i've had for 3 years. The game doesn't deserve me

OK, thanks

Got this today for Â£20 in GAME and after 2 minutes of gameplay feel totally ripped off. Took an instant dislike to it, can't believe what a steaming pile of shite it is. I'm gonna give up buying games soon if this is what gets churned out, should have just saved the money

Edit: BTW, the reason I took an instant dislike to it was because it reminded me straight away of Bioshock, which I really didn't like!

A mate of mine rented this & promptly told me to remove it from my rental list citing all manner of problems, it's still there!

Yeah if you don't like first person games or loot rpgs then Dead Island probably isn't the game for you.

I tend not to like loot rpgs, but I am a simple enough man to just be able to enjoy dismembering zombies for hours on end, so Dead Island worked for me.

I like Loot RPG's, seems the only reason i'm still playing Oblivion atm.... skipping all story and conversations and concentrating on finding nice items.

There's some tomb somewhere where you fight some crazy undead Amazon warrior which gives you the most powerful sword in the game (I think). Once I levelled up enough to take her out it was the first thing I did.

I played most of the game stealth with a bow. But in those moments where stealth wasn't going to save my ass, I pulled out Ye Ole' Stab-a-lot and got sh*t done.

Dead Island sold at Asda for Â£20, so didn't lose anything thank god... and now I have money for beer

This all sounds familiar. It's been a couple years so it's a little foggy. Maybe we should take this discussion to the Oblivion topic? lol

hell no, lets drive this further off topic. Ace Combat 7 is A-mazing by the by!
