In the fourth game you can have your character voiced by Nolan North... playing himself... as your character. I haven't done it yet, but I'm getting the urge.

Oh yeah. Two words: dubstep gun. It fires dubstep. It also a beast that obliterates all in its path.

Currently getting the sh*t scared out of me playing Alien:Isolation. The damn alien is a ninja. Little ol' me just out there, exploring and minding my business on a spaceship in buttf*ck nowhere of space, and this as*hole alien has to just spoil that and jump out of vents to f*ck me up. It's a spooky, atmospherically haunting game, and I love it. I swear though. When I finally am able to fight that damn alien. That dick is going to get some much deserved revenge.

I think I've dead 50 times by now because of that son of a whore.

Dude, i'm still playing the third one and I can't get enough of it. It's so much fun and the missions are legitimately fun to do. Doesn't really feel like a chore or anything like that. I also do want to say that for a game like this, the graphics are fantastic. I haven't had any glitches in terms of graphical errors and things like that. It's all very smooth and well refined. Probably going to spend most of my day playing more of it.

One of my favorite things about SR3 is the music that plays after you finnish a mission.
the missions always end up in a cool moment than the screen turns purple and it's all cool and sh*t.

Though Gta5 is not as flashy it is by far a better game, The story mode is great and the online mode is simply addicting. you'll spend your time racing and modding your cars and pimpin your character and by the time you realise it you have spent 6 hrs playing the game

I've been replaying it was well with a new character since yesterday, and I already own every single store and property, with many of the guns maxed out. U mad?

I'm mad though. There's this dude, named Professor Genki, with an anime cat head, who appears randomly throughout the city every once in a blue moon. He has a rocket launcher and is a bitch to kill, but if you do he drops $350,000, and his rocket launcher. Of course, as soon as I kill Prof. Genki, max out my rocket launcher and sniper rifle, go on a celebratory sniping spree, and then go back to Friendly Fire to buy more ammo, my ****ing game freezes. I hadn't saved.

Police Quest: In Pursuit of the Death Angel

I ended up finishing DreamWeb rather quickly. It seems the developers lost interest halfway through the game because rooms became far more barren and the puzzles mostly just devolved into "shoot the guy".

Anyways, now I'm playing the early '90's VGA version of the first Police Quest game which fixes some of the really stupid Sierra bullshit deaths. Actually as far as Sierra adventure games of this era go, this one is probably one of the most straight forward ones. I've only used a walkthrough so I can have access to the crime code things you have to enter when you book someone into the county jail, and that's only because DOSbox spazzes out if you alt-tab out. Story is pretty dry and weirdly cliched given that it was developed by a retired California Highway Patrol officer.

When I saw this it reminded me that I have all these games on 3 boxsets. King's Quest Collection 7 games, Space Quest 6 games and Police Quest 4 Games I bought them a few years ago and only played the King's Quest games. Played through the first bunch of King's Quest games which were too hard, old graphics and dying for any silly reason so I kind of gave up on the whole thing.

How does Police Quest measure up against the first few King's Quest games?

Hey man, you should have known that picking up that piece of string five hours ago would result in a hellbeast tearing out your heart right before the end, causing you to have to go all the way back to the beginning.

I never got into the King's Quest games, a little too dry and straight forward for me. Police Quest is pretty dry too, but it's an interesting look at police procedure that I find intriguing. It was pretty easy though, I mean I really only had a walkthrough up for crime code things I had to enter when I booked people. Honestly though there's really no story here, you just kind of meander around, going through scene-to-scene, then finally you find out what it is you're suppose to be doing, then you do it. I will say this for it though, no stupid fucking mazes.

I think the Delphine adventure games are some of the worst for that, although some of the really old Sierra games like Manhunter: New York are pretty punishing for that.

Im currently replaying Terraria and Breath of fire 3. ive also downloaded a Scumm emulator to play old Pc games like the King's quest games but idk to how to use it.

It's very different than the console emulators im used to and since i didn't grow up playing Pc games idk how to install them or what games to look for.
