Stereotypes? Huh? Racism? What.
Everything so far in the past 10 hours of gametime has been pretty normal to me. I mean QTEs are dumb but they're implemented in a way that stays under my tolerance. That's my only complaint really so far.

Uncharted 2 has better cutscenes, Tomb Raider has better gameplay.

It wasn't that bad, but it certainly wasn't GOTY material.
yeah man gimme dem third person shooters filled with QTEs, unnecessary violence porn, hand holding, 0 challenge, etc

It's the same damn game just reskinned. How do people not see this?! I finished the game, but man did it drag on and the MP is complete shit. TLoU is honestly the best TPS game I have played on the console and probably period. Not to mention that MP is tits.
Tomb Raider had potential, I even bought it on a not so cheap sale(like $10 off) and while I played it because I loved the series it retains damn near nothing of what made the original franchise great.
In other news, how do the Legacy of Kain games hold up? I haven't played the series since Blood Omen II

We can all agree on this I think, this doesn't need to turn into a Uncharted Vs Tomb Raider thread
Wait I'm confused. What's it for?
I've made it clear that I think The Last of Us is the best game I've played since Final Fantasy VII in 1998.

well there you go..UC1 was not great... but if you have not played UC2 your ps3 is crying..

Max Payne 3 plays a lot better than the second game. More movement options and the introduction of cover works well but doesn't throw the balance off (went one playthough without ever using it outside of the office section with the gunner)
Always preferred MP1's bullet time system anyway.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Currently custom profile backgrounds in Enhanced Steam are offline after a user decided to use the existing system to exploit the database.
This would fix that by requiring users, when saving their choice of custom background, to authenticate through Steam to do so.
I'm playing FFVII for the first time right now
Well, I am already paranoid about Enhanced Steam!....... But I am a bit like that with browser addons and because the source code is available I do not see why you should not add the feature.
Well, I could not possibly disagree with this more. Assassin's Creed 1 is one of the worst games I've ever played, Uncharted was awesome.

Do you find the chibis cute Grief-Senpai?
I never thought I would read this. Enjoying it?
one thing i feel TR did better than UC too is immersing yourself into its world. Including notes and stuff throughout the island, a seemless island to explore(if you call it exploring), having fireplaces to go to (like dark souls).
It is way better than the way UC does it with each new section you go to a new cutscene

Hmmmm, most of them have been skippable so far.
Agreed, I think most cover systems in TPS's are pretty clunky. Although, TR has pretty good one.

made 2,60 with selling cards, i'm in the sale again!!!
I'll have two more if Steam ever emails them to me.
Oh boo. That last win I had was an accidental dupe so I'm disqualified!
I'm 12 and what is this?
Yes I am, I haven't gotten that far yet since I have been very busy.
I can tell its a slow start, but hopefully I can devote some more time to it on Wednesday.
Climbing two 14ers tomorrow actually.
My favorite game of all time. I'll remember it on my death bed.

What are lfd2 booster packs going for? I cant use the market until thursday and I just got one.

Yeah, I only play games with necessary violence porn.
the qtes aren't even that bad. The best QTEs is where the only thing that happens if you miss them is you have to do something differently. Like press a qte to jump a breaking bridge, if you miss, you fall underneath and have to fight dudes instead of skipping them entirely. That's good qte.
also it doesn't really hand hold you that much but it's fairly generous on the platforming, which I don't mind actually. If I am 5 inches off or something I do not want to fall to my death and have to restart, and sometimes do this several times. This is infuriating. I would rather it shift me a little bit and allow me to make the jump and continue the flow of the game instead of interrupting it because I jumped slightly too early or something. Fuck that archaic shit. Ain't no one got time for that.
Also gore and violence is hot. Frankly it needs more before it hits any kind of gross factor with me. Like I was hoping she would cauterize the old dude's leg wound with her torch :3
remember when someone we never cared about died saving someone and the sad music played

FFVI for life, although I enjoy most of the Final Fantasy games. Even XIII because of the incredibly fun battle system and vibrant color pallet.
Only FF game I'm kind of meh on is FFII, I have bad experiences with the SaGa games though. Battle system is just super weird, hit your own allies to get more health! And obviously launch FFXIV

Meh, I will just open it.
I got FFVI on the shelf behind me in both SNES and GBA versions.
FFVI is my 4th favorite GOAT.
FF13 is up there with "worst games I've ever played". Loved the battle system, though.

Card prices are dropping pretty fast huh.
it's cool man, opinions are opinions, it's just really not my cup of tea and something that is very easy for me to point at when asked "what games do you not like".
there's no such thing as good QTEs as far as im concerend, and this certainly arent them
and as for the violence porn, I dont care about violence in games that are violent. What I dont understand is how this game is fucking tame as shit and suddenly IMPALED BY A STICK IN THE NECK OVER AND OVER LETS SEE THAT AGAIN. It's unnecessary within the context.
game is dumb and bad, what can I say

Anyone here can vouch for the Dawn Of War II? Haven't played an RTS since C&C on the Sega Saturn, and itching to get one.
