If nothing else, if those are your discovery titles, you're doing pretty good.

Don't worry I'm not gonna look for spoiler just wanted to know how far in the game does that scene happen.

installing Bio Shock now, gonna have to give it a go..

Be sure to come back here with impressions! I do give Bioshock a lot of ____ but its atmosphere is top notch. It can be rather depressing too, if you know where to look.

Mortal Kombat for me. This newest release brought buck some fond memories... It's a game you can always go back to, no matter how old it gets..

DUDE ... play JOURNEY its a PSN exclusive game. It turned me back to being excited about gaming. I was also "numb" to all games lately. But this game is just something I think everybody needs to play. Dont get me wrong tho, I loved what I played of skyrim.

I just found about kickstarter website, where these game studios get funded by gamers so they make the game that they really want, a lot of these are what many have been waiting for, like a return to Lesiure Suit Larry, a true Shadowrun sequel, Wasteland 2, etc...

Tim Schafer from Double Fine studio(Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Island, Psychonauts) just got 3.3 million dollars funded from gamers to make the next point and click adventure, that's so crazy:

There's also this game called Banner Saga that looks really promising, it's tactics RPG with full blown high quality 2D cel animation.

Just saw Xenogears at the store yesterday for $40. I'm debating if I'm going to buy it. I know I won't have time in the next year or so to play it. but it might be good to just have it when I'm finally ready.

Buy it!!!

This, I believe, is the spoiler that Drakul and Shropt are talking about so DO NOT CLICK ON THE SPOILER TAG!!!!!!!!

This goes to both Drakul and Shropt as I'm curious if this is the scene that is being talked about...

Spoiler:

The scene where you find out that you were being controlled all along?

Obviously yes

Yeah that whole kickstarter trend has some good potential for sure.

Also if you're interested here's a great interview of Al Lowe about the project.

Awesome! Play it fast to avoid spoilers and keep us posted.

 

[Chargersfan57]

Obviously yes

Yep, that's the scene I figured. It's been a little while since I've played it so I was trying to remember if there was possibly another scene you guys were talking about but this was the only one that came to mind.

And I agree, that scene blew my mind as well!

Oh and Drakul, check this out...

For Drakul's eyes only, or for anyone else who has beaten Bioshock...

Spoiler:

I thought this was clever how you worded it...
BioShock. While the gameplay was nothing special the atmosphere was amazing and that one scene was one of the most OMG!!! moment I've felt in my whole life as a gamer. So if you haven't, would you kindly go and play it

Apparently you can't bold part of a spoiler, so it's between the 2 's obviously.

Haha, yeah I thought people who played the game might get a kick out of that while not spoiling it obviously for those that haven't played.

I'm a spoiler hating freak.
