Title: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Dave Gray on January 30, 2009, 03:14:42 pm I have an idea. For those of us who play games, why don't we pick an old game (that's cheap) and then play it together.
The last one I did was Forza 2/Marvel Ultimate Alliance. I had fun with it, but never played it with any other TDMMCers, other than Guatarrican. I think we should pick a new game. Anyone have suggestions that would be interested in participating? I was thinking Burnout Paradise for the 360. It got very good reviews. It is $20 new from Amazon. (Probably less if you can find it used.) It has come out with FREE downloadable content since launch. It's also a game that is played with lots of players doing challenges together OR racing each other. Thoughts? Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Brian Fein on January 30, 2009, 03:20:50 pm We could easily make it games that everyone already has, such as Gears 2 or Halo 3, or even Madden. Is there a reason why you'd rather have people go out and buy a new game?
I think a racing game would be fun, but I prefer the kind like Need For Speed over Forza. Dunno, just my preference. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Fau Teixeira on January 30, 2009, 03:36:23 pm or GTA 4 !

Post by: Dave Gray on January 30, 2009, 03:37:55 pm We could easily make it games that everyone already has, such as Gears 2 or Halo 3, or even Madden. Is there a reason why you'd rather have people go out and buy a new game? Yeah, for a couple of reasons. First, I'd like it to be a game where we're not just playing only playing against each other. Halo and Gears have that, but only for 2 people. Also, it'd be nice for all (or at least most) of us to be on a level playing field. ...whereas, Halo 3 or Gears isn't fun, unless you've been playing long enough to be good. Lastly, I think it would be a good way to go back and pick up some titles that fell under the radar for cheap. But....it's not all on me. We can play whatever. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Brian Fein on January 30, 2009, 03:51:07 pm I agree - I'm down for whatever, just asking.
In Gears, there's Horde, which allows up to 5 people to play co-operatively, and possibly some of the most fun I've had in online gaming, ever. Halo3 has co-op campaign up to 4 people. GTA4 has cops and robbers, and a ton of game modes, but not sure how easy it is to assemble your own party. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Dave Gray on January 30, 2009, 03:53:39 pm You're right. I'll play either Gears 2 or Halo with anyone. I forgot about Horde and 4P Co-Op.
Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: SCFinfan on January 30, 2009, 03:53:52 pm How about left 4 dead? I play that online w/ a friend.
Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Dave Gray on January 30, 2009, 03:56:16 pm I have Left 4 Dead. ...and I'll play that with oneone, as well.
But right now, that's a 60 dollar game, so I wouldn't ask anyone to buy that who doesn't already have it. Burnout is $20 brand new. I'm also down for playing some Team Fortress 2. I have it, but have never played it, really. It's part of the Orange Box, that is also 20 new, and a great deal. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Thundergod on January 30, 2009, 04:39:42 pm Sounds bad ass. I love Burnout, (have takedown for ps2) and if it's only $20, I can deal with that hit to the bank acct. I'll re-up my acct. with Live if we can get some multi goin on. Also have GTA4.
I'm game if something happens. :) Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: myami54 on January 30, 2009, 10:06:02 pm Burnout is awesome and they have a new update coming out. I don't know if it will have any new content but so far everything has been free to download.

Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Dave Gray on January 31, 2009, 12:04:19 pm I don't play PC games, but I know a few of us do (did).
Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: SCFinfan on January 31, 2009, 05:42:33 pm I have Left 4 Dead. ...and I'll play that with oneone, as well. Side topic: Is left 4 dead not the coolest game out there right now? Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on January 31, 2009, 05:55:59 pm I am a big axis and allies fan. That can be played for free at http://tripleawarclub.org/

I love these type of games.... err YAH! it Turnbased....I'll have to save the link for when I've got more time....Woohoo..Thanks Hoodie....

Turn based like the board game. the board game that came out in 1984 (no central usa) is called classic. the one that came out about 5 years ago (with central usa) is called revised and there are also a bunch of variants the version that came out about 2 months ago is called aa50 but still has bugs. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: bsfins on January 31, 2009, 07:43:12 pm Yeah My buddies and I used to love to play this type of Axis and Allies took forever to play....but it was awesome...

Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on January 31, 2009, 07:53:02 pm Yeah My buddies and I used to love to play this type of Axis and Allies took forever to play....but it was awesome... game still last a long time, but they move about 25-40% faster on the computer, because you don't have to set up (or clean up) the game, dice rolling is handled by the computer much quicker than real humans can do it. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: MaineDolFan on February 03, 2009, 10:57:41 am I've been meaning to respond to this.
I am willing to do either, play something we all have or buy something new. Some of the more enjoyable multi-player games, in my opinion, are: Call of Duty Halo Left 4 Dead Vegas 6 I am grooving on Left 4 Dead right now - this is one fun, bad ass game! Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Dave Gray on February 03, 2009, 05:12:11 pm I bought Burnout Paradise today at Target for $20. It's in the bargain bin. There was also the Orange Box in there, as well as a few other games. ...but these were by far the two best.
If anyone else wants in, I'm game. Also, for you Left 4 Dead-ers -- let's get a game going. I'm down. Title: Re: What do you gamers think of all getting the same game? Post by: Thundergod on February 03, 2009, 05:28:49 pm Just need a heads up if and when we're gonna do this. I'll pick up the game.
