I loved the first Fable, truly a ground-breaking game at that time.

And there are just a ton of mods here. I'm using a bunch of the flag models (because I need a Sobe flag lol), Djs shipmod, and a bunch of barmaid governors daughters mods.

It is a very dark game, lot's of disturbing moments that genuinely scared me. I haven't finished it yet but i'm really digging it so far, def worth a look Sean.

Still feel the same after a few days? Worth the money? I hear it is kinda short... I may take some old games to town and do a trade.

Little Big Planet has been recalled? I don't have a PS3 so I am not affected, but someone on this thread was waiting for this one.

We got Aerosmith a month or so ago... some pretty awesome songs on there. I want to get GH4 bad but isn't gonna happen I'm sure. Don't really have room for the setup in our den and I don't want to play on anything other than the big screen.

I can't believe no-one has mentioned WorldofWarcraft!! Where are you Paul?? Wrath of the Linch King comes out on the 13th and it's easily the best game I've ever played and one that I want to play all the time. :( Been playing it for over 2 years and no sign of getting even a little bored with it yet. Blizzard has hit the money pot with this game.

Re: Games thread!

I got the Wii (and the balance board for the wii fit). That being said, I'm not huge on video games (because I am sure if I really got into them, I'd do little else... I don't go into things half-heartedly... ;)), however...

This game is gonna be the shizz... you use the balance board to control your guy.

I can't remember the last time I was excited about any video game.

Presently all I have for the Wii is Madden 08 (awesome), Tiger 07 (incredible), Mortal Kombat Armageddon (very cool), and the Wii Fit (which I picked up for my wife, thinking she'd be the only one to ever use it... I was wrong... it's great).

Re: Games thread!

I've got a Wii stashed away for my wife/kids that I'm giving them for Christmas. Does anyone with small kids have some good games for young girls (currently 4/5)? I've seen some stuff like a Disney princess game, Hannah Montanna, American Idol, and a few others, but don't know how they would be. If you have any recommendations, I would appreciate it.

My wife just got a gym membership, but I'm thinking about Wii Fit for my wife for some additional workouts at home.

Dude, i've put in less than four hours and have had some game breaking bugs. First, in the very beginning, when you take the test, the guy wouldn't give me my paper, so I just sat at the desk stuck. Restart, go through the bs again. Then at the radio station, after clearing out the baddies, I go up to talk to three dog and my guy gets stuck at the top of the stairs for no reason. he just won't move. I can turn, shoot, but I can't move cause i'm stuck on a little fukcing wall at the top. So I restart and have to do the whole freaking thing again! Then again, on my way towards the washington monument, at the hotel, I clear out the second floor of it's super mutant problem, I don't know where to go, so i'm just wandering, and again my guy gets stuck in a fukcing wall! So restart, and I have to do the whole thing over again! I am beyond frustrated with this game :fl:mad:

This is besides the floating corpses, the suspended body parts in mid air, floating brahmins's, and the terrible AI. And why does nobody blink!? The fact that i've had to restart three times already is beyond crazy, I like the game, but I don't even want to keep playing it until the stupid thing gets patched. I hate having to redo things over and over again, this is no good!

Mario cart was recommended to me as a 'must have'. There are also some games for the wii fit's balance board (wii ski, for ex.) that I figured the kids could master quicker than games using the remote. Other than that, it seems like all of the popular cartoon characters have their own games - Spongebob, Dora, etc.

You may be able to find some answers HERE.

Get the wii fit as soon as you can (Walmart has em for $89)... it's the coolest video-game thing I've seen... not only will your wife love you for it, but the whole family will enjoy it (most likely you, too).

PS3. I checked the IGN and GT forums and i'm not the only one having these problems either. I'm done with this game until there's a patch.

Volt	10-30-2008 11:49 AM

Re: Games thread!

Ouch... your having some pain. Might want to do various check point saves instead of having to start over. I used to do that for some other games.

You sound like you either went a different direction or are way ahead of me. I'm the type that explores everthing so i get side tracked and don't typically rush through missions. I'm just completing the first survivior book mission to the grocery store and fixing to report in to the female who gave the mission.

If you check around the forums you will find a number of people having as bad of a time as me. There isn't anything wrong with the disc, it's just a glitchy game.

Joystiqs negareview was also pretty good in picking out the various problems with the game.

A few hours in and no problem so far-except the damn ants. I cleared out the super market and then headed over to help the kid find his dad and I don't have enough ammo to keep the buggers off me. I'm thinking that I am not ready to fight them. I am almost to level 3

Re: Games thread!

I've been playing Fallout3 all weekend. I must have 20 hrs in the game-it is huge. I haven't had any glitches that I noticed. Game hasn't frozen up...been tons of fun. I did get the guide because this world is huge andlike Oblivion a person can spend a lot of time wandering around getting nowhere...The world map is unwieldy and the maps in the book aren't so good, but the walkthrus are very good.

The graphics in the games are great-when you get into D.C. you can really see the devastation.
