Just got Unreal Tourney 2003... It's really Quake-like (the new physics engine has that more visceral, immediate feel than it's predecessor). The single-player "Ladder" is fun (drafting your own team is cool, but still nothing but a timewaster)... I play it with NO opponents sometimes; the level design is just that beautiful (in fact, the best I've EVER seen).
Still cranking out a JK2 map, so every now and then I go back and play one of the levels for reference. I switched the playermodel with that of Darth Vader, and boy, does it help. It's almost impossible to lose (or play nice) when you have Vader's avatar to work with.
Tried Warcraft 3. it's allright, but not as engaging as I'd hoped/feared. I'm waiting for Starcraft 2.
Red Alert 2 : Yuri's revenge... on the LAN, with the boys. what a great, mindless RTS. From Cuban suicide bombers to Yuri's telepathic minions, it's the best way to exorcise your inner evil. All over your friends.
GTA3 - been a while. I played it maybe 20 times, but it only got fun when I played with someone else, taking turns at a life of crime. Like the MP3 player inside, that's pretty much the best thing about it. Well, that, and understanding the inner depths of a friend's psychosis. It's really disturbing to hear a man giggle like an ecstatic schoolgirl when the police helicopters start gunning down pedestrians to get to him. |
