Poor lonely message board...

There's been longer dry spells, even in my time.

I use 3 forums and all of them are currently as dry as the Mojave desert.

Hello, and as a random thing to maybe start a conversation: The latest Bioshock game was great game, and a good story. but it was to goddamn short.

[The Hanged Man]

I suppose it was short, in a way, it took me a day to finish but it took me more hours than Call of Duty games used to take me.
I think Bioshock infinite is the most fun I've had with an FPS since the original Bioshock.

It's shiny!

I'm playing on Hard. Reloading after death. Haven't died much. The trick is to put all your infusions into vigors before anything else.

Cool to hear the new Bioshock is good, I was considering getting it. Apparently some version has the original game in the same box?

Also, If anyones interested; I have a moped (Think, 1970s vintage with pedals), not sure if i have shown you guys or not. Anyway, I went to a rally this weekend and took some pictures. Heres a few.

The second one shows our group filling at a gas station. The third shows 65 mopeds parked outside the door of a local brewery. The last one is my baby; A 1976 Puch Maxi N

I played it on normal and didn't even die until act 2.
I'll admit that I died a few times during act 3, mainly during the busiest moment of the game. I thought about changing the difficulty but I couldn't be bothered, since it would have meant starting from the beginning again.

Also, cool moped, that rally looks like fun.
I can only imagine the look on the petrol station man's face when he heard a hum on the horizon and saw a fleet of mopeds coming towards him.

Thats a whole lot of mopeds  And you have quite a nice one there.... how hard is it to find parts?

It sounds like a swarm of bees.

Not that hard. Mine is one of the most common models. We get them online. Mine is actually completely stock, but a lot of people modify them with new parts.

Well, thats good! Is the company that made it still around?

Well, for another attempt: I reinstalled Black & White 2 yesterday and played for a good 4 hours. Still the same satisfaction to crush enemy soldiers with platoon sized rocks.

[The Hanged Man]

I played the original Black and White, I did the evil thing at nearly every instance.
At the begining of the game someone asked me to save their husband who was drowing in the sea, so I picked him up out of the water and threw him even further out to sea. 

I remember some jolly blokes who made up a song in order to ask me for supplies and I rewarded their creativity by bringing them what they ask for. Sadly they decided to push it and asked for more, so I picked up a rock and smashed their stuff, then threw them all into the sea.

That'll learn 'em! 

[brujahonly]

Ahah that was good!

I like B&W and Dungon Keeper 2 so much that I can cry like a girl sometimes!

Similar to Black and White, I tried Fable recently.

I heard that the original was pretty good so I thought I'd get it in the Steam sale.

So far it's not so bad but it doesn't offer half the "freedom" that it bragged about during development.
Characters look the same no matter how much you change their hair or doodle on their face; they will always be a young, white, male with black hair. I haven't seen any incentive to marry another NPC and the moral choice system is broken in so many ways.

When I got to do my first mission (Rescue a bunch of picnic dwellers from giant wasps) I noticed that there was the obvious good option (kill the wasps) or the more obvious evil option, watch the wasps eat the picnic dwellers alive and then loot their corpses.

So I literally stood there for 5 minutes laughing as the villagers got killed by the giant wasps before looting their trousers and then turning on the wasps. For this I got good karma and I'm the hero of the land!

At the time it was said to be a "Morrowind beater" which seems kind of funny now, I think a character in Oblivion made fun of this.
