Borderlands, wut; diablo? Take my wallet!
post=103788
Brandon, I've almost sent you a game invite several times for Borderlands, but I keep remembering what you said here.
Well I'd turn you down. =P I really don't like multiplayer gaming. Sorry man.

wut? Isnt the whole point of this game Co-op play?
I don't really think so. I mean it's a strong component of the game design and everything but at the same time the game's setting and gamestyles really lend themselves to the lone desperado archetype. I'm having a blast playing solo. When you play games alone, you play at your own pace and do exactly what you want. When you play with other people, there's some groupthink going on. That appeals to many people, but not to everyone.
When I want to interact with others, I invite them over. And whenever I do play multiplayer games it's usually when I actually have someone over. But for the most part video games have never been a social thing for me. Internet multiplayer has always had zero appeal to me, and I don't think I'm the only person who feels that way.
EDIT: Also I usually play video games with my girlfriend on the couch when she is watching TV or something on the laptop . . . it's sort of our quality time at the end of every day. That might play a part, too, because I'd rather use my extra attention span to chat with my girlfriend while playing a game and not put on a headset or something and shut her out.

I am looking forward to this game, but PC games make my tendonitis worse so I will be playing on XBox Live. Sorry bro!
Also I don't like playing video games with other people.
The Steam deal is a pretty good idea, even though it is a little unconventional. I think it's hard to argue with digital distribution when you can get such awesome bargains through services like Steam. The sales numbers support it, too; when they cut games down to very low prices, their sales go up by over 1000% sometimes. I'd like to see Activision or someone sell a big title like Assassin's Creed for $20 new and see if they are able to move 10 or 20 million units.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?
I am playing Uncharted 2 because I like the occasional major blockbuster. It's pretty good. I like it more than other third-person shooters because my character is acrobatic and agile instead of lumbering and muscle-bound. The game feels loose and imprecise compared to Gears of War or whatever, but it's a ton of fun. It also has pretty good Hollywood-style storytelling.
Man I'm so jealous. But I prefer English-language games because you know.

Still playing Dragon Quest IX.

Dragoon Legends, Part 1
Did you fight the giant robot? As I recall, that's around the very end of the thing. There might be more, but I have no idea. This is just the latest internal beta that I happened to have at the time . . . Kazukeri hasn't been seen for years. He just stopped appearing on the internet one day. I really do worry that something happened to him.
Dawn's Light
Yeah, the rest of us really should have been a little more enterprising. Here I am actually going into work every day . . .
I think this is indicative of how poorly the mainstream RPG market is serving its American audience. Thousands of people will pay good money for such an amateurish product because they perceive that it fits their taste in games better than million-dollar products at Gamestop that also cost $15-$30. I don't know about you guys, but with only a few exceptions, every console jRPG I play is worse than the last one.

The importance of Music in a game
GRS - I'll second you that Ace Combat has great music. I remember the dogfight at the end of Ace Combat 4 was sort of romantic in a way. The enemy ace and I were both in strategic stalls, facing straight up into the sky, plummeting towards the earth in a tight corkscrew, struggling to get a lock on the other . . . and the music was so understated. It was a really magical game experience.
