  1. iPhone Carcassonne

    Indeed a majestic city! Also, last night I started a quick game online, and guess who I got paired up with: Dibs! We had some connection issues, and in the end the game crashed (which for some reason gave me the victory, even though I was clearly losing) but it was fun while it lasted.
  2. Red Dead Redemption

    I don't think they do, no. I fired up the game again today, to finish up all the challenges and stranger quests, etc. I headed out looking for beavers, but after an hour of riding up and down the rivers finding nothing but raccoons and bears rivers I gave up. I don't understand what design decision lead to a mission requiring you to hunt down animals that sometimes never spawn, and for other players spawn hundreds at a time for crazy reasons. It was fun to do the various stuff in between the main missions, but now that they're the main thing to do it's just tedious. I learned this lesson with GTA IV, and now I've learned it twice.
  3. Awesome Boardgames online.

    I'm up for both XBLA and that other thing, whichever gets the most players.
  4. iPhone Carcassonne

    Holy Maloney, the "IT'S YOUR TURN" guy scares the living shit out of me every time!
  5. Awesome Boardgames online.

    That's simply a matter of learning as you go, a technique as old as the board game itself.
  6. XBLA Strategy

    I'm up for that. You should start a new thread.
  7. iPhone/iTouch gaming

    What are your email addresses? Also.
  8. Road Trip

    I just named some stereotypical places to see. I don't know if they're any good. In fact, I've never even been on the continent. Having said that, I'm sure the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is great.
  9. Red Dead Redemption

    God, I've been thinking about this game constantly since I finished it. There are so many issues and annoyances, from the start and right to the end, but it still comes out so fantastically well.
  10. iPhone 4

    See?
  11. Road Trip

    Grand Canyon and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
  12. iPhone 4

    Is it basically what everyone's saying, only with "relevant" instead of "open" or "good" or whatever? I don't get it, maybe it's a language thing. That's just describing all product marketing ever in the history of the entire universe. What, Sony Ericsson's ads are just lists of technical specifications?
  13. Red Dead Redemption

    Possibly. Best. Ending. Ever.
  14. Deus Ex 3

    What, could this be great after all?
  15. iPhone/iTouch gaming

    Well, this is embarrassing...
  16. iPhone 4

    But how are they years ahead of the iPhone?
  17. iPhone 4

    What are you guys talking about? How is the iPhone not "relevant"? And how is it any more of a status symbol than other phones, other than it costing more than most of them?
  18. iPhone 4

    What? What phones are these?
  19. Dwarf Fortress: Succession Fort!

    Seeing as I haven't gotten around to to trying the game out, you might want to take me off the list, as I'd probable kill all the dwarves.
  20. iPhone 4

    What phone would you pick that's less locked in?
  21. Formula Thumb

    Can't she join us too?
  22. Formula Thumb

    I'm game, so there's that.
  23. Telltale Jurassic Park

    I'm assuming this will be handled by the CSI guys? Isn't that a wholly separate department of people who don't have anything to do with the MI and S&M games?
  24. Emergent Gameplay

    I thought that was pretty lame as it was just some Japanese dudes playing, but then the green mushroom came out of the wall and I almost screamed in terror. It's funny how such arbitrary rules can be so engaging, even when the punishment for losing is an extra life.
