mainly racing and fps is what im looking for.
lately ive only got my hands on just cause 2 and after finishing the story im looking for something new.
had a look, but didnt see anything which looked like "zomg must get".
I got Bioshock 2 and it is amazing. Haven't completed it yet but thats because i have been busy with other things. But so far i am loving the game. I would recommend it if you enjoyed the first Bioshock.
I've played (and finished) portal. There's a whole list of games i'd rank better than portal (even tho, it's a brilliant game, yes). Are you still playing pong?
Yes i realise that. It wasn't my point tho. My point is...
While portal is a good concept, it didn't impress me that much as a game. This is why i mentioned pong (as an extreme example of a game that has a great concept, but is not really impressive on any other levels (game design, story, blabla)).
This is just my opinion, but no, i don't see portal anywhere near the top of my "best games of the decade" list, even if it's just three years old and would be well within the timeframe.
still think its a rather poor example as pong is one of the very very first commercial video games
as for the actual question i played rather a lot of plasma pong when it was still fres some years ago
but pong really isnt any fun without the proper controllers
i think portal is one of the very few games that dont really have any flaws and it overdelivers on top of that well beyond anything i expected
it does what it says on the tin in that it delivers some very enjoyable puzzle gameplay
slowly hints that there may be more to the games narrative than you expected and then hits you completely unexpectedly with something very rare in gaming... good humour... really good humour actually
and best of all it does all that in a very short amount of time meaning that it both doesnt overstay its welcome and delivers a storyline that can be experienced in one sitting making it all that more immersive
and it manages all that without any noteworthy rough edges
that the credits are the most fun ive ever had in a game (and that without any interaction from my side whatsoever) is just icing on the... nah that would be a shitty reference
