Gay Gamers Unite!!

[Musik2400]

Workin on some old games I've never bothered to beat. Right now This is what I've got on the go:

Lunar Silver Star Story Complete- PS1
Bioshock- PS3
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion- PS3
God of War 2- PS3 (I know. Serious catching up to do lol.)

An elf again (aren't they gayest of all mythical races though? lol), but better than Zevran by far. He looks like the dark brooding type, but don't worry, I can save him!

While I assume you don't play WoW, there was a a big controversy in the new expansion's beta over a 'gay dragon' boss. Such a shame the voice got changed to something more "masculine". I mean his main abilities are called "Dazzling Destruction" and "Fabulous Flames". I don't think it gets much gayer than this...

Didn't know this thread existed, so forgive if I'm to late to the party....

But the types of games I enjoy are RTS, Rpg's, and hack'n'slashers. I'm currently playing Sengoku basara: Samurai heroes and looking to get Transformers: War for Cybertron on the PS3. Among other things.

I'm currently playing Final Fantasy 13 and trying to get all the trophies. I've never liked FF before but this game I love! I'm also playing a bunch of others... Donkey Kong Country Returns, Infamous, Batman Arkham Asylum, Call of duty... there's a lot!

Playing Donkey Kong Country Returns and Epic Mickey...liking Epic Mickey more.

Yeah I found the info about the DA2 same sex relationships here

They think that this guy might be one of the gay options:

An elf again (aren't they gayest of all mythical races though? lol), but better than Zevran by far. He looks like the dark brooding type, but don't worry, I can save him!

Sigh, was hoping for a meaty guy...

On a non-gay note, Carver looks pretty damn awesome. It's a good thing I usually play mage, Bethany can die for all I care.

And on a side note, nearing completion on Golden Sun Dark Dawn. Game is disappointingly a tad bit easy. But still a good game nontheless, even if the dialogue is a drag and the story a bit lame.

I didn't really like 13 all that much and I haven't even finished it. Right now I'm playing Lost Odyssey though. The game is beautiful and I'm digging the battle system, turn based but with some new elements.

I'm with you on Lost Odyssey. That game is beautiful, I love the music, and I love the mini-stories you can collect. It's definitely a throwback to retro-turnbased rpg battle systems, but to me, that is the appeal of it.

Nobuo Uematsu composed the music for Lost Odyssey (the same guy that did FF1-10). The game is pretty good at the start but once you get midway through the second disc, the plot just deteriorates and it can be painful to continue playing. I'm all for subplots/side stories but I hate it when RPGs lose sight of the main plot/boss.

Of course FF13 had the opposite problem, great storyline (IMO) but mediocre gameplay.

 

[SilverSurfer]

I'm on disc 3 of Lost Odyssey right now, and I'm lovin' it.

An ALERT for Gaymers playing Lost Odyssey:

After sailing through 3 discs of the game smoothly, I started encountering disc read errors on disc 4. I had noticed that the loading times were longer, but didn't think much of it until I was near the end of a really long segment when my unit froze up tighter than a bull's ass in fly season.

After shutting down manually, I tried installing the disc, but at about the 40% mark, I got a disc read error.

Cleaning the disc hand no effect. A little research led to the discovery that this is a frequent occurrence, cased by a residue on the disc from the separate paper sleeve the 4th disc is shipped in. The fix is rather bizzare, and I never would have thought of it:

I heated up a pot of water until it was boiling then removed it from the element. Using tongs I grabbed the disc from each side and dunked it in for 10 seconds, twice, making sure not to touch the sides or bottom of the pot (which can warp the disc apparently). I took it out and wiped it down with a tissue, wiping from the center to the outside (not in a circular motion).

There was no residue to wipe off which I have seen mentioned on other forums. In fact, it looked exactly the same as it did before. Anyway, I noticed the difference as soon as I popped the disc in. It sounded normal while spinning (before it was really quiet) and load times are the same as the other discs. And the main point - no disc read errors! Have played about 20 mins and it is loading perfectly.

Finally I have thrown out the cursed paper sleeve. The fourth disc can *just* fit on the same peg as the other three discs. Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem.

It works!

I can't seem to find need for speed hot pursuit anywhere guy a gamestop says it's so popular they are selling out. I seen nothing but bad reviews.

I mentioned this in another thread, but 'The Last Story' for the wii is being made by Mistwalker as well and Uematsu is doing the music for that as well. I unfortunately don't have a Wii but I was thinking of getting one this year for a few games that have come out and are coming out.

By the trailer you can already tell the music will be awesome. And I'm not a graphics whore, but it does look real good for the Wii, imo.

Looks awesome.

I love Nobuo Uematsu's music and yeah, this does look really good for a wii game. Damn.

 

[Ninja108]

I'm playing Epic Mickey...wow is all I can say right now.

 

[goldenmoth]

Has everyone seen the new images from the next Tomb Raider game? It's looking pretty awesome!

There's a couple more details here as well...

It's interesting they're rebooting the character. It sounds fasinating but quite risky for a medium dominated mostly by straight men. I can't wait though!

 

[Ninja108]

^^Yeah, it's looking awesome. Going to have to keep my eye on that one.

Wish I had that game. A PS3 version is rumored to come out around summer time, hopefully it's true!

i felt the same way about the two kingdom of hearts games that the PS had.

 

[RyanE23]

I've been playing the games I've gotten for Christmas mostly, but I just bought the 3rd Professor Layton DS game. I've been puzzling over it for a week now.

And yes, I do love bad puns.

 

[heroesnhunks]

still hooked on City of Villains (surprise - been playing on Virtue Server since game came out) but the Incarnate system of post lvl 50 content has finally given me a reason to play my 50s more.

I'm head of the VG The Obsidian Oath on virtue - global is Pool Boy. Hit me up in game sometime.

Also loved Dragon Age - but was disappointed that the expansion Awakenings wasn't half as gay friendly as Origins. Has anyone heard if they'll be including the same type of adult content in Dragon Age II? Any commitment to LGBT inclusion they made with origins is called into question by hiring homophobic sci-fi writer Orson Scott Card to write the comics book adaption of the game.

 

[Ninja108]

Been playing a lot of Mario Party lately....the older games are in many ways more enjoyable than the recent ones.

I just found all my old computer games so I've been playing Battle for Middle Earth and Age of Mythology, good times

 

[Nerd12]

I just found all my old computer games so I've been playing Battle for Middle Earth and Age of Mythology, good times

I never really played computer games (since I was always on consoles), but Battle for Middle Earth was one of the few I played and LOVED! Could never get enough of that game. After playing that, I bought Age of Mythology, but I never really got into it. I think I was expecting it to be similar to BFME, especially the battle system. The only other game that I loved for PC was Zeus: Master of Olympus. Too bad it broke.
