The Computer/Console Gaming Thread

[G1Optimal]

Try to recognise that these 'gaming' topics being raised by others, are the 'computer/console' type, not 'board' type. Your posts are essentially offtopic.

If you want to talk about board games, it is best to start a 'boardgame topic' so that your 'offtopic' posts do not annoy people trying to talk about computer games here.

Maybe the thread title should be changed to:

All Computer/Console Games Thread...

As i would of thought, the "Non-Electronic Games" would of been covered in this thread as well... Even though i don't use them anymore.

Well, most here seemed to recognise that the topic starters (this topic and the one in the intro section) were refering to virtual gaming (on computers and consoles), which is distinctly different to boardgames.
But if it is necessary to avoid confusing anyone else, the title can be modified.

Guitar Hero games these days have the ability to create your own music in the studio, not sure if Rock Band has it.

Unless you meant actually adding in the music via MP3 and it works out the buttons. That would be a wicked idea, but seems to futuristic to see it anytime soon. Would be cool because then I could put my bands stuff on there (as I am not smart enough to create it in the game because it is friggin difficult to create a song )

There was a mod years ago for the Guitar Hero II that allowed you do your own songs. Basically it involved a couple of computer programs to copy the game disc, use your own songs, burn it to a blank, also needing a chipped PS2. The track title would stay the same but the buttons and music would be your song. Very time-consuming.

I remember a clip of someone playing 'The Touch' which is how I found out about it. This isn't the clip I saw but it gives you an idea. And the site which tells you how to do it - scorehero.com

The Touch is available as a free download for Guitar Hero: World Tour (I think).

Finished Uncharted 2 within a few days of release, good times. Waiting for Fallout 3: Game of the Year edition to arrive from the USA so I can play all the DLCs and then probably do the game again.

Looking forward to Assassin's Creed II this month and also the God of War Collection. Will probably pick those up after the Xmas season though.

Got Arkham Assylum. The first part is longer and better than the one shown in the demo which is impressive. Voice acting is great and although the gameplay is nothing new, it is refined and the story, setting and characters keep your interest.

A very good game so far although I am barely at the begining.

Now I need to wait for Dragon Age Origins to arrive.

I bought the Spec Ed of that, though I dont have a PS3 to play it on. My work mate has it and said it was awesome. Bane is a really hard boss apparently, so you will find that out when you get to him (I think he is the first boss)
