They're...surprisingly good. They're almost on par with games like Command & Conquer.

Isn't that the Anime porn stuff?

Yeah...

Like I said though, it's like Command & Conquer or even one of the Total War games. Except now, whenever you win battles/war/etc. you get to see boobies.

Sounds hawt. Not really my thing though, not into anime. Or anything Japanese.

C&C loses out to Civilization. Civ 5 is amazing if played on the right computer.

Saints Row the Third all day!

well there's a conversation killer.

Did it occur to anyone that the game series Halo, Gears of War and Resistance are suprising alike in their strory lines?

I'll elaborate: In all three games there features Humans battling non-humans in a war that the humans are losing. In all three games, there is some viral parasitic life-form...thing i.e The Flood from Halo, The Lambent from Gears of War and the Chrimea form Resistance. Outside of the game, all three games are also benchmarks for their consols

And now that I think of it, that game Metroid is suspiciously similar to Halo...

I don't see a point in that. Who wants to work for their porn when there's so much out there free and easy to access?

Ok honestly, if you're looking for a storyline in a FPS/ 3PS then watch a movie.

^Missed the obvious troll, somehow. Also, in what world is a movie equivalent to an FPS?

I don't play it to fap. The boobies are just extra incentives.

My only concern is that the digital market is becoming too fragmented now. Just a year ago you could get all the same games on Direct 2 Drive, Steam, or whatever and you were free to simply stick with your "platform" of choice.

Then EA comes along and throws their dummy out of their pram, now I will have to use Steam for some games and Origin for others, starting with Battlefield 3. Then some other arsehole company will do their own with exclusive games. I'm sorry but I just don't want lots of them on my PC.

EA lack creatibity and thrive on monopolies and advertising rather than making 'good' games. PC FTW

I'm not trolling anything...

I'm just saying the storylines in video games are laughable, thats all.

There's a reason they're called betas.

They're just a sub genre of visual novels anyway. I have to play Umineko one day. I got them all downloaded.

wut?

EA don't make games. EA publish them. They are supposed to handle advertising.

I thought it was over developers who made the games, you know the coding the and stuff, and the EA handled the rest of it....

EA does have quite a few in-house teams.

Age of Empires 3 (best RTS ever!) :bow:

Left 4 Dead 1 & 2
Red Dead Redemption

Oh yeah, I forgot about them. Are any of the teams actual EA teams, or ex developers like Westwood?

Company of Heroes
Men of War
Blood Bowl

The only thing I don't like about Blood Bowl is that it's hard or even impossible to buy new players for your team that are anywhere close to the level of your current team. It's like a Premier league team signing on a pub-league player. And what's worse is that the AI teams don't seem to suffer from this problem.

I've never seen the appeal of Age of Empires; it just seems like a mediocre RTS version of the Civilization series.

Left 4 Dead seems good, but I prefer Zombie Panic as you get to be the zombies.

I like Age Of Empires because it shows me what I'm doing, not just telling me where my civilization is going.

I like feeling involved, and the Civ games just don't cut it for me.
