Yeh huge prize money. I've preordered RTW 2.

 

I wish they'd kept with Command and Conquer Generals 2.

 

Did you go for final fantasy 10 then Philly?

 

How can anyone complete Desert Bus?!

 

FFX is my favourite game of all time. The story is brilliant and it really knows how to get at you emotionally. If you can't shed a tear (you'll know when if you have played it) during FFX, then I doubt you have a soul.

On the whole the story is well paced and a fantastic music score.

I know I am a sucker for saying this, but when the HD release of FFX comes out, then I will be buying it again. I don't have my PS2 anymore and it would be fantastic to play it again.

Plus - Blitzball!

 

I finally got around to playing Resident evil 4 and have to say it was easily one of my favourite games i've ever played, so good i played through it twice.

 

Sigh...yes I did Opti but it wouldn't play on my laptop. I don't have a PS so oh well nice idea

 

philly all is not lost. ill send you a pm later. I take it you have a windows based comp?

 

I still have a working PS1 somewhere. Just need a power lead cable, I think...

 

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it on here but I'll do it anyways.

Watch Dogs looks to be one of the top games this year. It looks like such a brilliantly created game with a really unique and good storyline to it. The whole premise of the character and the game is excellent. A must buy for me, and I don't buy much games

 

I have Rome 2 Total War in my hands now, but can't activate it until midnight. Rubbish!!

 

Waiting very impatiently..... mate at work booked the rest of the week off, wish I thought of it!

 

I'm waiting till midnight. Already done the preload, its all in steams hands now.

Going to do the campaign? Might post updates on here about it, if others do it it could be interesting to compare.

 

wish i could play rome total war 2. maybe oneday it will be available for mac.

ive got rome total war gold edition on my mac, absolutely love it. the last one i bought for pc was rome total war empire.

 

Yeah the original was amazing! I've been waiting years for this, makes me wish I was still at Uni. Just had a two week holiday from work, so no more time off for me, will have to be patient and wait until tomorrow evening. It won't even let me install the hard copy yet off the disk, and waiting until midnight is no good with work tomorrow, pah!

 

RTW 2 will be released at 9am uk time apparently. 3rd september for the USA.

 

Cookie Clicker.

Whoever designed this game will have a foot up their arse; I cannot get myself away from it. There's no point to the game except to click on a cookie and build a cookie empire.

 

I played it a few weeks ago. I quit after getting 100 of everything on the right. 100 time machines too.

 

Got like 10 T.M's. Hmm.

*Spams cookie*

 

GTA V really does just look and sound f**king incredible.

 

It's so addictive. And probably quite tactical on what you spend things on whether its better to save up for something good at a slower rate or invest in lesser things immediately and so the rate is faster. Weird.

How are people finding RTW2? I'm playing the campaign a fair bit at the moment and its difficult. I have a whole region near Sicily rebelling and I have to wait 14 turns before the technology of plumbing is available to stop them.

Check out some of the other gameplay videos and the trailer on youtube. Looks incredible.

 

can't you just crush the rebels with your military might?

 

I keep on doing but that doesn't help the people.

 

ahhhh **** the people. on my last game of rome total war, i took over all of gaul with my legions. they then started rebelling, so i slaughtered them over and over and over again. they learned their lessons. in the end.

 

I've been taking it slowly. I'm playing as Sparta... taken a few territories but have Athens as an ally.

I have 2 client states... one I literally just declared war on and they instantly sued for peace. The other I took a settlement, marched on their capital and they got **** scared. Both of their armies are actually quite big so I didn't mind, just a bit worried about whether they're going to turn on me.

 

Anybody into MobA's? I.e League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, DotA2? Big player of Hon, if anyone else plays would be good to get a wfc team together

 

I had a few but they weren't paying me any money and it entangled me in a huge war where I lost half my empire.

 

Started off with Dota years ago. Moved to HoN for a year or two, tried a bit of LoL..... now Dota 2 since the beta started

 

Pre-ordered. Don't think I'll be pre-ordering FIFA though. Just looks the exact same.

 

getting it for free with my xbox one. never been a big fan of fifa, but free is free.

 

I know this is bad, but I'm seriously considering keeping up-to-date with the Doncaster game via twitter. That is bad, but GTA V. A wait of five years! #tormented

 

Getting FIFA 14 on PS3. Then whenever I get a PS4 I'll just get it on that.

From what I've heard, you will be able to upgrade your games for something like £10 ... so not that bad

 

At Christmas I might Fifa14 for PC at a discount.
