The Fifth Video Gaming Thread: Limited Collectors Prestige International Plus Alpha Gold Edition

Whats the deal?

You need to watch their atrocious E3 conference. It is painful stuff.

Apparently, Ps3 is about to start charging for their online, like 360.

That was one of the major reasons Ps3 was as good or better [not debating this] than 360.

For PS3 to bridge the gap online they needed to have a paid model.

Really looking forward to Nintendo's 3DS. There is just something about the handhelds that brings out a surge of nostalgia, taking me back to those days of long car rides with me and my Gameboy.

Ok I know I'm not the only one who had a Game Gear.

A friend of mine had one but he only used it when he was near a socket and used a Gameboy everywhere else.

Didn't want a Game Gear cause of the battery life....wasn't it like 45 minutes off 4 AAs? Did enjoy playing Sonic on other's though.

I had a Game Boy.

Thinking of getting a DS but the 3DS will cost an arm, leg, entire skeleton.

A first look at PES 2011:

No, my 360 is still not back online.

How come there hasn't been a single mention of the release of StarCraft 2 on this board. I'm disappointed in you. Or is it that most of you are too young to remember the greatness of the first game?

Well I just finished the campaign mode on normal(easier than I expected) on my lunch break and I loved every single minute of it. Great game and next week when my employment is up I'll have to try the harder difficulties...

My friends are all shitting themselves over that game atm, I have yet to play the original so I don't really understand the hype.

I played the original but preferred Warcraft 2 (and the associated expansion packs). My friend and I were actually playing StarCraft on and off last year. I am not that excited this time around because my laptop is out of action and I simply do not have the time. No doubt I will pick it up at some point. I can understand the excitement from those who have been playing it regularly or been eagerly waiting on the sequel. If anyone is interested in the genre then what the hell are you waiting for?

Currently making up for a lost childhood with Banjo-Kazooie (XBLA), loving it.

I loved the original StarCraft, what graphical settings do you use when playing? I plan to build a better gaming PC by Christmas

I do have a question I'm too lazy to search the answer to: Does PES 2011 have UEFA CL & Copa Libertadores? or just Libertadores?

Both.

Excellent. I may go back to Fifa this year. I've been away for 7 years at least. Fifa 2004 the last one I seriously invested in.

Halo Reach is 33 days away.

I play with full graphics settings. But then I have an i7 that I've cranked up to about 3.6 GHz and a pretty good graphics card as well.

I know I'm super late with this one but I played Fifa World Cup 2010 continuously at my cousin's house and I must say I was extremely impressed. EA Sports have definitely stepped up their game and I think I'll get the next Fifa as well.

Yep the world cup game is good fun!

Apart from the ping pong passing they said they would fix in this new edition, yea FIFA 10 has been alright. It finally got that celebration feeling when you work for a goal, and tie or get the game winner. Truth be told that was only in online pro club mode though.

The online features make FIFA last very very long.
