DANGERMAN Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Yep, paying to play online, dlc, day one patches, multi gig patches, in-app purchases, retailer exclusive pre-order dlc, games that stop working whenever a server goes down or gets switched off. What an era to be a gamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Chin up, you miserable sod. Plus DLC isn't necessarily a bad thing, some DLC is great. Most of it is a cash in, but some of it is really worthy of our time. I think that there is a golden age. However, I can see the things you mentioned knocking fuck out of games as they are right as of now, until they find a medium that players are happy with.

HandsomeDead Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Games are arguably better than ever. The business is unarguably worse than ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I was thinking about this. There's about 15 or so of us that post here regularly. If each of you picks x amount of games that you've enjoyed between the 360, PS3 and Wii I'll do an MFG top 100 list. To flesh out the list I'm going to say pick a maximum of 40 games. I know that's a lot but it works out at just under 5 games per year, I'm sure we've gotten through that. Obviously you don't have to pick 40, that's just a cap. Just pick however many you feel the need to without going over 40 titles. Depending on how people vote, how many games are voted for and how many times certain games are voted for we might not get a top 100. PM me with your choices, when I've gotten them I'll tally your name up in this thread, when the majority of us have answered within a decent time frame I'll throw a thread up. It'll be nice to see how our choices stand up to those seen earlier in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiofloyd Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 Do we have to rank the games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Nah. Just list them. Games get pushed further up the list by being voted for by different members. EDIT: Number them so you/I know how many you've picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 this is going to be a terrible list edit: are we counting ds/psp/phone games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 No, only 360, PS3 and Wii. It can't be any worse than the IGN list, we pulled holes in it, rightly so, it was bloody awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I actually think they'll be fairly similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiofloyd Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 I wasn't sure whether to only included games I love, or games I would be content to see in a top 100, so in the end I included everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I don't wanna list right now. I'll have mine to you sometimes through the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I just did some prepping for when I put the thing together. I noticed Guitar Hero III made the IGN list. What the actual fuck, that game is proper dog shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 it was nothing like proper shit, it wasn't as good as Rock Band, nor should it be in the top 100, but it was a good rhythm game on topic, same as DC, I can't get a list done tonight but I wont hold things up too long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 It should have been brilliant, but the note charts were all over the shop. Neversoft struggled to get them something like for a few games. Once you got up to hard mode the note charts were absolutely horrendous on GHIII. Plus they filled it with terrible ideas. Boss fights and power ups. Horrible man. Absolutely horrible. It's easily the worst music game I've ever played. You're entitled to your opinion though, this is one I'm going to have to totally disagree on. It was pap.

Hendo Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It was certainly the worst Guitar Hero game, at least all the ones I played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Sly - if it's one of the worst (music) games you've ever played then you've been very lucky Hendo - unless I'm thinking of a completely different game, I have fond memories of playing the wii version online with you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It's possible, but I can't remember playing that one online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 it was the one where the wiimote went in to the back of the guitar (had Slash and Tom Morello as a boss fight) if not then I retract my last couple of posts because I haven't played it edit: I've found the thread and it is the one we played co-op, and you said it's the greatest game ever made (you didn't, that's a lie, but you do seem to like it and praise the online ) http://www.mfgamers.com/index.php?showtopic=28112&hl=%20guitar%20%20hero It's worth reading the thread just because we're talking about how the ps2 version might be the best version to get, which shows how long we've all been here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was ok in the sense it was Guitar Hero so my default stance at the time was that it was fucking awesome. Looking back, it was a much weaker game than GH2, and paled in to comparison against Rock Band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I like lists. When do you need them by, Sly? EDIT: List of 40 has been sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
