I play NFSU online. My username is Merzbow naturally Good purchase. ALthough alot of people cheat online so it takes the fun away from it.I play NFSU, SOCOM II, and that's about it. I've beaten all my other thousands of video games countless times so they are kind of boring...If you like tactical war games get SOCOM II it is one of hte best games. I also play GT3 from time to time too. I'm stuck atr 87% completion and I can't get the super liscense so I'm stuck lol.

I'm more of a Gran Turismo fan and am very eagerly waiting GT4. Did you know the Pontiac Vibe will be in that game? GT3 is awsome but GT4... even more realistic and a heck of a lot sweeter heh.But I will have to look into NFS Underground eventually cause I am sure it is a lot of fun.Otherwise I enjoy RPG games like Drakan, Final Fantasy 10 and previous FF games. I own a PS2 and play PS and PS2 games on it. Not really much of a sports gamer but I do enjoy Tiger Woods PGA 2004. Tactical games like Splinter Cell, Metel Gear Solid are a lot of fun also. Huge fan of Tomb Raider games, love those and the movies and not because of Lara Croft's twin "guns" heh. I also have a real good time with Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City as well as True Crimes, Streets Of LA.Horror games are fun to, I still get creeps up and down my spine thinking of Resident Evil and Silent Hill... *shudders*

Thats a pretty good game, I think I'm about 1/3 the way through it (wish it has a vibe in it!).I also play Champions of Norrath, Dark Age of Camelot, UT 2004, and BF1942 regularly (plus lots of other stuff every once in a while).

I love GTA3 and especially Vice City. Metal Gear was another great game. I like Madden Football (it taught me a lot about the game) and some of the better ice hockey games out there. My g/f's mom and sister got me Jeopardy! for PS2 recently for my birthday. My g/f and I would play along with the tv regularly and argue over who knew more answers. Now when we play the game, I blow her away. I won every time so far. She gets REALLY MAD because I can hit the button a lot faster to ring in. I've also crushed my mom and stepdad at it.I'm also a Command and Conquer Red Alert addict. I used to play that game all the time on the PC. I have Return to Castle Wolfenstien that I beat a while ago. Talk about a really creepy game, that one really freaked me out sometimes. Took me a good while to beat that one. I want to get Microsoft's Flight Simulator when the price comes down a bit. That looks like a really cool game.

NFSU was cool, but i beat it in 3 days. Not a big challenge. Socom 1 and 2 are hard. Had tons of trouble with them. It just goes to show you i'm a racer, not a soldier

I have NFS HP2 for PC and have finished the challenge mode 3 times and the Pursuit mode once. I really enjoyed that game. I been leary of NFSU though, looks a little cheesy with the night time graphics and dosen't seem as realistic as HP2.My question is:How does the game play compare to HP2 and is it as cheesy as it looks?Other games:Finished Unreal II - 4/5 stars Played LOTR-ROTK - 2/5 stars - got bored with and probably won't finishCurrently playing HALO: Combat Evolved for PC, 4.8/5 stars THIS GAME ROCKS!!Favorite driving game of all time: NFS Porsche - 4.5/5 starsPlayed GT3 on PS2 until about 90% - 3/5 stars - races got to be so long I got bored and quit

Yeah I wasted 3 controllers due to Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero and GT-3 linscenses. That's an excelent street racing game "tokyo extreme racer zero" it's pretty realistic, except for handling...the cars kind of slide around as oposed to turning lol.Stang2Vibe, I am a major fan of Comand and Conquer, though my comp. is 6 years old so I could only fit red alert 2 on it. C&C Generals is awsome. The music is bad-a$$ too.Vice City is porbbaly one of the few games that I never get bored of, but my mom wont let me buy it thanks to the intelligent salesperson at Media Play who showed her all the "bad things" the game had to offer such as chainsaws and hookers. Though she does let me get soldier of fortune when you shoot em in the stomach their intestines hang out and stuff...silly mom. I ended up buying it anyway, I couldn't resist.pwarren - NF HP2 is alot more realistic than NFSU. NFSU doesn't really have that great of physics, front wheel drive cars are able to drift almost as easily as a rear wheel drive car...plus, since everyone allways cheats and uses the fastest cars in the game it's kind of pointless to play online because you'll never win unless you use one of the fastest cars. I wish it had a "cruise" mode so you all could just drive around where ever you want and just look at eachother's cars, like in Midnight club 2. That game wasn't that good either lol. Man, I'll say this though, I've seen some of the worst color combinations on the NFSU cars online that I've ever seen in my whole life. I'm talkin like blue car, red wing, yellow rotors, yellow exhaust tip, teal underbody...

I ended up buying it anyway, I couldn't resist.Ok... so salesperson talked her out of a sale? What the hell is the entertainment industry coming to? I also have Soldier Of Fortune, I spent a lot of time perfecting those bloody head shots.. back of the skull exploding, splattering against the wall, even had the bullet hole in the wall hehe... Points for Groin shots, you can shoot off a guy's arm lol. Vice City is tame compared. I picked up a hooker who got the car rocking on the beach, moans and all that carrying on till out of the blue "are you in me yet?" well I can tell you when she got out of the car I blew her away with a shot gun and took her cash heh... All in good fun though because I'm mature enough to NEVER try any of that in real life.GT4 is suppose to have the largest programmed cars ever in a car game. Realistic to the point its your show room. The Vibe is there, as is Sunfires and all that. Even the GTO I think... over 500 cars from muscles to tuned up ricers. Let them push back the date for delivery, it means they are fine tuning everything to perfection. Rushed games suck...

Don't worry, most of the people cheat so you would probably lose anyways. I haven't played online in a while because of that. No one cheats on SOCOM II so that's my fav. online game.

Too bad everyone cheated online on that one too. I'd end up playing one of my roommate's friends since we knew that each other wouldn't cheat. We had a 10 minute build rule. For the first 10 minutes of the game, you weren't allowed to attack the other person's base. It was more fun that way. You could set up defenses and traps for the other guy when all the tanks started coming.Quote, originally posted by Merzbow »Vice City is porbbaly one of the few games that I never get bored of, but my mom wont let me buy it thanks to the intelligent salesperson at Media Play who showed her all the "bad things" the game had to offer such as chainsaws and hookers. What an idiot salesperson! It's not like you are 10 years old or something. See, your problem is that you have to be more creative in your arguement. You have to look at your mom, and in your best Cartman voice, say "but Moooooooom, the game is about cleaning up the city by using the chainsaws ON the hookers!" I like how you can walk right up to someone on the street and point a gun right in their face and sometimes when you target them, they drop all their money on the ground and run away screaming. Another good one is to park a car on the street and when more cars start piling up, shoot out the tires. Then sometimes I find a car with 2 people in it and use the sniper rifle to shoot the driver in the head through the windshield. The head explodes off the body, the body somehow opens up the driver's door and falls out onto the street, then the person in the front seat jumps out of the car and runs around screaming. If you're quick, you can pop them in the head too. Another favorite is to walk up to a cop on the sidewalk and cut off his head with the katana sword. That one is great too. I never get bored with that game either cause if you get tired of playing the game, you can always quit doing the missions and stuff, save the game, and just start finding fun ways to cause mayhem in the city, LOL!

The main reason my mom wont let me get it is because of the controversy Gran Theft Auto one...the original one with the bird's eye view. It had a rape scene in the version released in Great Britain but the US made them cut it out in order for it to be allowed to sell it here. Anyway she somehow found that out and incorperates that rape scene into every sngle GTA that has come out since even though none of them here in the US have ever had it in them. I don't understand though because I have every GTA up until the 3D ones.
