I'm pretty pissed about Malice. Its not that its bad, its just not good. Look up the word "mediocre" and you'll see a picture of Malice's lead character. For ****'s sake, they've had over 3 years and this is the best they can do? I was psyched about this game. It looked dope graphically and was going to have a banging soundtrack by No Doubt. It was also going to put out by a sweet publisher called Vivendi. Instead, it goes to Mud Duck, loses its deal with No Doubt, and becomes garbage!

Halo is by far the worst game I've ever played. The only enjoyable thing to do was throw grenades at my feet to see how far I would fly.
This is followed closely behind by Blood Rayne, who's jiggleometry left something to be desired. Mostly breasts.
Third worst game is Unreal 2. Man was I misled on that one. Surprising how two games running on the same engine can require totally different specs. I'm surprised ANYONE can run it.

Cloverfield 06-22-2004 08:55 AM

Ah, someone else on here who isn't obsessed with Halo. I was beginning to think that me and Alcar were the only ones who don't see the wonder of Halo. I wouldn't exactly say it was the worst game I've played, but I never see the big deal in it all either.

Although expect to recive a lot of flames after that comment, people on here are Halo brainwashed. LOL

Yeah, I figured that when I realized most people here are Xbox fanboys because of Munch's Oddysee 0_o
The only reason I can see as to why people would enjoy Halo so much is that Xbox owners have nothing else. It was the first decent game released for Xbox really, so naturally they had to cling to it and blow it out of proportion.

wtf is Chronicles of Riddik i'v never heard of it

It's a prequel to the movie Pitch Black. There's a movie currently in theatres called The Chronicles of Riddick.

Another bad game: Eggmania. It's the stupidest game, yet I still play.

Shrek Super Party is a game that I'm sure everyone would think is stupid, however you get 4 of you playing it late late at night and it's a laughfest.

You can add me to the list of people who do not like Halo........I hate the game.

Chronicles of Riddick is NOT, I repeat, NOT a prequel to Pitch Black. It's a SEQUEL. I've seen both movies, and they make it pretty damned obvious.

drakan90 06-22-2004 09:18 AM

I dont HATE Halo, but there is no way its as amazing as all the X-Box people say. Its just a game, not even groundbreaking, graphic, plot, or gameplay wise.

Cloverfield 06-22-2004 09:38 AM

Awesome! Chronicles of Riddick is the sequel to Pitch Black. I absolutely love that movie ... and I've heard of Chronicles of Riddick [it's not released here yet I think], I didn't know this. I've definately gotta go and see it now!

Heh, yeah ... just like us FF fans cling onto FFVII. ;) Hey, but FFVII kicks ass, even if it's old. Anyways, most people who own Munch's Oddysee also own Halo, as both games came bundled in many of the packs that were released for Xbox launch. Blow out of proportion ... yeah, that goddammed Halo topic is at almost 600 responses now

I like Halo, but it isn't may favorite game. Halo 2 is going to be awesome though...very awesome.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay for Xbox IS, I repeat, IS a PREQUEL to Pitch Black. The movie is a sequel. He was asking about the video game, hence my reply stating the game is a prequel. It's about Riddick escaping from prison, and Johns (played by Cole Hauser, who died in the movie Pitch Black) is in it. Cole Hauser and Vin Diesel lend voice talents.

nads 06-22-2004 10:11 AM

Plus, between PB and the new movie is Dark Fury, an anime with an art style like the animatrix series.

another shit-tastic game is ninja gaiden. When you have to fight two OHK tanks and then two guys with rocket launchers and THEN a helicopter with HOMING ROCKETS!

oh and anything by Nicelodeon

Mojo 06-22-2004 10:21 AM

Another worthless game (For me, that is) is Shadowgate (NES). I really liked the skull on the sticker on the gamecassette. But I couldn't get out of the first room...

Jacob 06-22-2004 11:48 AM

I agree with most in this thread about 'Halo' not being uberly amazing. When i bought it, i was all "Oh...so, this is what the fuss is about?". I've always said it's just like a prettier version of 'Doom'...but with an amusing Robot character who kicks ass.

I also loathe 'Bloodrayne' - i thought it'd be good. It wasn't. T'was poo. And in the second part of it, you get the ability to slow down time for, like, ever. Making it not only uberly slow, but uberly eeeeasy.

I agree, all my freinds were saying how good it was but when I bought it it felt like a regular FPS.

I enjoyed that game, but I like weird stuff like that at times. Although I do agree that it was a very difficult game, I never did complete it ... and things such as walkthroughs on the internet were unheard of at the time.

oh, yeah, morrowind 3.
you don't have clue about what you need to do.
what kind of plot is: you're a prisoner, and you need to do favors for a guy.


:rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:

oh, yeah, and enter the matrix

The Red Muse 06-23-2004 12:02 PM

Legend of Dragoon = total shite & waste of your money.
Eugh...can't even be bothered to explain! *shoots game designer*

Ehrgeiz...um... sure, it has Cloud, Tifa, Vincent, Yuffie, Zack and Sephiroth from FFVII and it's a fighting game...but it sucks. It sucks big time. Why did I even buy that piece of ...crap...?*dies*

Chronicles of Riddick (the movie, not the game) is nowhere near as good as Pitch Black. The only relation to Pitch Black it has is the three characters that survived, and even then their roles are nothing like they were in the original. The movie just sucked in comparison to PB.

I stand corrected. Could have specified WHICH Chronicles of Riddick you were talking about. He asked what Chronicles of Riddick is, not specifically what the game was.

Facsimile 06-23-2004 08:22 PM

I like Halo, but it is no where near my favourite game, although the sequel is going to own, the first is way too hyped. Apparantly it has an 'incredible story mode', but I never really thought that. There only area it shines for me is multiplayer, if there was none I certainly wouldn't have bought it.

Probably for the same reason most people did ... for the FF characters. *drool* Sephy!!!

I didn't mind it actually, but I'm probably bias. Although I suck really bad at fighter games ... but the weird thing is that I beat this one ... but I could only beat it with Sephiroth!!! Hmmm ... must be a mental thing or something.

It was also very amusing to see Sephy competing in "beach" activities. LMAO ... just can't picture him having "fun in the sun".

Heheee :p
I must admit that the game gets very amusing when you're playing with that Nanaki-like creature... Django?
The CP never hits you :D Yay!

Oh, yeah! Hey, AbeBabe, you wouldn't know anything new about FFVII: Advent Children? I've been trying to search the net for some info, but I just came up with some old crap...

beserker slig 06-24-2004 04:02 AM

the FF games are pretty good.
except in VII, where the city is like the ghettos. i hate that. and, i think some others do that too. :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad:

Check my sig ... or go here :: www.adventchildren.net I think I need to annonce it in really large letters somewhere, as everyone asks me about where they can find a site. :D Although some of the sections need a little updating, as I've been doing the forum skin instead ... but the news is all up to date [thank god for staff].

Aaah that's too bad, the trailers look really good but I did have a feeling that it might not live up to PB.

Well the previous poster stated that he loved the CoR video game..then the question was asked (with the original poster's post quoted) asking what CoR was...so I thought it was just assumed that I was telling him about the VG version (to which the original question was asked). It's always hard to get context correct on message boards though!

What's the problem with FFVII? Ghettos?

Not a problem for me. You are just strange. *prods with fez*
