gunner154 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I have to agree with Chuck on this one. It took me a painful while to decipher all that...So let me guess. Your contention is with puzzle games of the good old days? Hey, Prince of Persia is great fun and I still play it today, mind you! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesnake Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 no here is a summery of the topic with some spell check service :i mean to say that games have allways been hard but being younger gave me more time and energy to finish games like prince of Persia ex....now being older i just cant put up with the complications any more, and i see that games Oslo getting much harder for no reason at all..im just starting to like games that are more simple to the mind like bf2 and emp...and i wanted to blame games makers for taking a harder line in their games that's all and am calling it the art of making things complicated..i hop you get this one thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erjin999 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I would put it down to your changing taste in games. Spicy, can you do this for us, maybe use MSWord to type your messages first, or another spell checker (there are some that run from system tray that work on all keyboard inputer, like Tiny Spell from www.Numerit.com) and copy & paste to the post ? It honestly does help a lot.Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veK Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 gaming to me means:single player: funmultiplayer: competitionI've been playing cs for so many years now and though my league and lan-tournament times are lying behind me I still like to kick ass and play a good 5on5 war from time to time though the tactics aren't as good as they were back then with a team where everybody knew everybody else and everything fitted perfectly.as for single player games I sometimes like them to be hard and difficult but you should still be able to manage it without trying 200 times. what really annoys me is such crap as in nfsmw. I posted it in the nfsmw topic: you can drive absolutely perfect without crashing and be the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I tend to enjoy cooperative multiplayer games and singleplayer games more than competitive multiplayer games. It's definitely just me, I guess. The downside to this is that most game writers do not write the AI properly, and thus the only way for them to create a challenging AI is to have an AI that cheats. Sometimes, this additional "skill" of the AI makes gaming more interesting, but more often than not it's just plainly frustrating.When I tried Day Of Defeat: Souce during the Free Weekend, I must say I've been pleasantly surprised. It seems to be somehow... reviving my age-old interest in competitive multiplayer games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesnake Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 yes erjin i will try...and yes vek you perfectly understand what i mean and nfsmw is one of the games that made me make this post along with few others like call of cthulhu which have a perfect hard levels one after the other.....i just felt after few minuets of playing i felt extreme headacheand tired..and for need for speed it was those long police rides which made the thing for me...

Nyarlathotep Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 For me games need to be complicated. The more the better.Easy games like Serious Sam are fun on a LAN party with friends, just mindless shooting.However, the somewhat more "complicated" games are more fun for me, either multiplayer or single player (prefer to play multiplayer games though).

MrFlibble Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Well, computer/video gaming is a rather new cultural phenomenon that definitely has a future. In due time, no one will find it strange that people of all ages are gaming; the sceptic view that gaming is "only for kids and nerds" will disappear.As for me, gaming is not only entertainment, but also a bit of a hobby. I'm interested primarily in old games, the evolution of the genres (RTS being my favorite) and games as a phenomenon in general. I also do a bit of amateur modding here and there, 'cause I like to look into the innards of a game and, if possible, extract and modify them ;DAnd BTW, I have never played a game online... :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
