Re: [Audyssey] which game interests you more...
Hi, Well, my in-laws have an XBox 360, and my wife likes it. I myself don't have a personal preference between XBox or Play Station III, but since I'm not the only person making the decision I'll have to go with whatever my wife wants. After all, she and my son will probably end up using it more than I will. While I like mainstream games I actually get a bit depressed when I have difficulty/trouble playing some games. I once was sighted, and even the games that are playable don't give me the same thrill. I usually just get frustrated and upset over small things like menus, status messages, etc and other things I just can't see knowing 20 years ago that wasn't a problem. So my wife and son usually end up playing those kinds of games more than I personally doThat's why I'm not being as vocal over an XBox or Play Station as it doesn't really matter. I'll get a few games I like, but the console will mainly be for them not me. Cheers! On 1/30/11, Clement Chou chou.clem...@gmail.com wrote: Ah... well then.

Not trying to bash, just curious to know. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] which game interests you more...
Fair enough... I can only imagine how that must've been like. But to be honest, that's one of the reasons I love fighting games to death. As much as there is that requires visual cues such as spacing, combos and the like, it's possible to do those things without being able to see.. it just takes time and patience. And menus can be a pain but once you get past those fighting games give a thrill that a lot of other games don't. Ones that are playable I mean. For the simple reason that... as fun as things like Rock band can be, there's a layer of strategy in a fighting game that you don't get in other multiplayer games that we can play on consoles. Hence why I'm so excited for Marvel VS. Capcom 3. I like the fact that fighting games are probably the closest we can get to sighted people on a competetive level, and it never gets boring facing people online who have their own styles, play differently, etc. But like I said.. I can only imagine what that must be like, to know that some time ago reading menus and whatnot wouldn't be a problem. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] which game interests you more...
Hi, Oh, my vote is definitely for MVC 3. I'm a big comic book fan, and have been something of a fan of the MVC games. Plus as you pointed out the last few MK games weren't really that impressive. I've pretty much lost interest in that series, and unless there is something really steller I'm gnot forking over any cash for MK 9 myself. Cheers! On 1/29/11, Clement Chou chou.clem...@gmail.com wrote: For those who are going to answer because of audio differences, please don't bother. This is an honest question for some discussion, not to convert people or start a flame war. Which game interests you more at the moment? Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 or MK 9? Personally, MVC 3 is looking a lot better to me at the moment. Fresh mechanics, but with enough old stuff to keep it good. A cast of characters who are both old and new... and a whole lot more to keep it interesting. Reasons for skepticism where MK is concerned: 1. The last four games have been clunky, badly designed, and just all around bad... 2. MK 9 is openly copying a lot of things from other games... the developers even admitted at taking mechanics from Street Fighter 4, which depending on how you look at it can be good or bad. I'm questioning how good this game is. Nevertheless I was a huge MK fan back when I was in my early teens... which wasn't all that long ago. I still enjoy playing older games, but I am going to get this game with a big, big grain of salt... and we'll see where it goes. I've preordered my copy of MVC 3, and haven't preordered MK. However, I definitely plan to give it a try. I'm ready to give Midway another chance, mainly because from the explanations this game is definitely going to be deeperthan the past ones. Plus, extra-gory fatalities sound really good to me... I want to be able to respect MK as a fighting series again. Thoughts? Opinions... hopefully this discussion can span more than three messages. lol. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Hi, Well, my wife and I are looking at investing in an XBox 360, and of course I'm keeping my eyes and ears pealed for any games I might enjoy for the platform. As I have liked the MVC games in the past I'm obviously curious to take a look at MVC 3.

Ah... well then. MVC 3 and Super Street Fighter 4 should be a target for you, if I do say so myself... that is, if you're into fighting games.
