Great initiative, this realy makes me wish I had some more time to play games those days. I'll keep an eye on this and try to participate if possible.

Daxter King 03-19-2012 09:48 AM

Suggesting RE4. Would finally make me play it.

Dynamithix 03-19-2012 10:03 AM

I vote for Resident Evil 4 too (as I am playing it right now)!

Manco 03-19-2012 10:05 AM

I’ll try to take part where I can, but I only have a 360, PS2 and a low end PC. I don’t often have the money to buy games, either, so I’d probably only be taking part if it’s a game I own already (or if it’s old enough to emulate I guess).

e: My vote would go to a Sonic game if that’s still on the table, seeing as how it was me whining about it in the other thread. Plus, I have the early games on like 15 different platforms.

Mr. Bungle 03-19-2012 10:29 AM

Voting for Resident Evil 4 (final vote). One of my favourite games and I haven't played it too long.

MeechMunchie 03-19-2012 10:57 AM

I haven't got that. Not that I'm trying to influence your decison or anything.

Crashpunk 03-19-2012 11:46 AM

Goddamn it! I just finished playing though RE4 with my...Ex-Girlfriend so I'm not playing though it again. :|

FYI your 'whining' more or less explained how to have fun playing Sonic CD for the first time since I was a squirt who didn't know dick about how to play.

You can get it on PC, but mods are necessary to make it halfway enjoyable since it has no mouse aiming.

So I'm thinking Resident Evil 4, specifically the PS2 version. You can play it on PC, Wii and Gamecube as well and I know for a fact it's only 9.99 on PSN, so we have 5 available consoles for a pretty accessible game.

You can tell us how to do everything when we're stuck, then. Be as condescending as possible.

OANST 03-19-2012 12:20 PM

We should all play Yaris.

Mac Sirloin 03-19-2012 12:24 PM

Remember when we got Crystal Defenders or whatever? I tried to download Yaris along with MM9 but at that point they'd taken it down. Bastards.

OANST 03-19-2012 12:27 PM

I forgot that they took it down. God, that game was awful. Even for a free game it wasn't worth it.

Daxter King 03-19-2012 12:42 PM

I remember playing Yaris, fun game.

Also I change my vote to Beyond Good and Evil since it has been sitting on my hard drive forever.

Dynamithix 03-19-2012 01:16 PM

I'm down for that too. I still need to get one achievement from the game anyways.

Varrok 03-19-2012 02:16 PM

I'd rather not play RE4 nor BG&E, completed both and I remember these 2 too well to start over

what about Fallout? It's a pretty big and nonlinear game

Daxter King 03-19-2012 02:29 PM

The world does not revolve around you, Varrok.

:monster:

Seriously, though. It's highly likely that not everyone will be able to participate the first time around. Now, since we all pretty clearly own computers (or someone is a goddamn witch) I suggest any sort of freeware as a possible starting point.

Now, my initial intention (vision, possibly) was for quality of participation, but not quantity of participants. What I mean by that is that we dig really deep into the game, find and investigate every weird little thing or oddity we might be interested in and see where that takes us. On the other hand, it would be very nice to have the bulk of OWF's gamers joining in on something, but it's not really my call.

It's probable (and not unreasonable to think) that a lot of people are going to think this is great right now and either lose interest or outright forget about it. I'm not saying that I want to exclude anyone, but understand that you might be able to actively participate one month and not the other. I can honestly say that any recent PC exclusive game is going to leave me in the dust, holding my dusty gozangas.

MeechMunchie 03-19-2012 02:52 PM

I've got a "legal" copy on disc somewhere, and I have been meaning to play it.

Speaking of which, I think Outcast is abandonware now, as is the orgininal Dungeon Keeper. So, you know, ethics and shit.

Still support BG&E right now though.

Mr. Bungle 03-19-2012 06:44 PM

Banjo-Kazooie.

I know, I don't want to force anybody, just saying that if it was RE4 or BG&E, i wouldn't participate.


Banjo-Kazooie sounds cool to me

DarkHoodness 03-20-2012 03:23 AM

I support BG&E since I actually have it and have been meaning to re-play it for a while now. Wow, that would also mean I can participate in a non-minecraft related activity with a group of people on here for once. :P

I long time ago, before the HD version was released and they changed the website, I used to be #55 on the worldwide high-score list.

http://www.oddworldforums.net/attach...1&d=1212057921

Could've been higher if I bothered to get a higher score in that hard-as-nails ball-maze arcade minigame.

EDIT: You have to admit that being able to upload your score to their site to compare with other players was a really awesome thing that they did - especially for 2003. It's a shame more single-player games don't do that. Maybe we can compare our scores here at the end or so. :)

Which Fallout game?

Or are you referring to Fallout 1?

I'll be joining in on this,

But knowing my luck, there will be no driving games :(

That's because we know you're just to good on WRC2. LOL! :D

Ain't been on it in a while, but I think I'm still in the top 10 on the world XP leaderboard :D

Nice one. No wait now everyone won't play any racing games because your too good. :D

Manco 03-20-2012 12:32 PM

If racing games are on the table then Crash Team Racing is a must.

Dynamithix 03-20-2012 01:43 PM

This thing is never getting started.

Mr. Bungle 03-20-2012 02:59 PM

I think we should all try our hardest to find one game for the majority of us to play and talk about.

...Zelda

Strike Witch 03-20-2012 03:10 PM

Uh, Diablo?

MeechMunchie 03-20-2012 03:37 PM

Diablo II.
