QUOTE(Pseron Wyrd @ Apr 8 2013, 10:55 AM)  Would you all say Bioshock Infinite could be enjoyable to a person who has never played the original Bioshock?
My younger brother played through it and said it was still amazingly good, he called it one of the best games he's ever played. Sure it's nice to have played the last Bioshock games but not strictly necessary. You can still enjoy this thing a lot without any previous experience with the series.

The second one was pretty good, didn't like the first.

QUOTE(mirocu @ Apr 24 2013, 02:52 PM)  Now when I think about it... it may have been Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries that we played... Gee, it was such a long time ago Played Driver, Sub? I liked Mercenaries much better than MW2. In MW2 it did not matter how badly you got shot up in a mission, because you would start out the next one in a brand new mech. In Mercenaries you had to pay for repairs, and buy all of your replacement parts. So it really changed how you played. It even changed how I attacked enemy mechs, because if I completely destroyed an enemy mech, there would be nothing left to salvage. OTOH, a headshot that took out the pilot left the rest of the mech in perfect condition. Driver? What is that, a golf game? Or a race car game? Back in the day I used to sometimes play Nascar 3 with my brother. That was a hard game if you turned on the realism settings! I could barely get around the track without slamming into a wall. I am trying out Tomb Raider Anniversary. I have a hankering for the original game, and I would like to see what it plays like with a mouse and semi-modern graphics. If anyone has ever played it on the PC before, WTF is wrong with the save feature? As far as I can tell, there is no quicksave at all. I made a hard save through the escape menu before typing this, went back to play the game from where I left off, and it will not let me load the game I saved. It is forcing me to start all over again. Why is there a save game feature if it does nothing? This post has been edited by SubRosa: Apr 25 2013, 11:52 PM

IIRC the Tomb Raider series had fixed "save points" - once you reached a certain location, the game would save automatically, and you didn't have to backtrack any further. It makes the save file itself much smaller, because it only has to track health and equipment, and a location counter. I'd guess you hadn't reached the first one of those.

They certainly do. You can stand perfectly still and do nothing but as soon as you press the key that enables the handbrake they come after you as if you were Americas most wanted. That was most of the fun, really; I loved playing the sandbox levels where you could drive around the city getting into massive car chases. Those were great fun. In other news, I've finally decided to stop humming and hawing, and bite the bullet and get Dark Souls. Wish me luck, everybody...
