General Video Game GABBIN'

Here is a thread. It is for ALL video game related stuff. The PS3, Wii, X-BOOKZ660, whatever.

Mainly because there are a lot of threads started that don't actually have a lot of subject matter to go on past 20 or so posts without getting really offtopic.
Then they CLUTTER UP THE ONLINE ORGY.

But in THIS topic, you can discuss WHATEVER. As long as it is videogame related somewhat.
Otherwise it is offtopic. INGENIOUS?

If you want to introduce a new topic for discussion, give your post a title. This will make it noticeable. People will see it and think "HEY. A new topic. Let's talk about that until it runs out of life, then we can talk about whatever else."
Let's see if this works. (It won't! Maybe.)

NOTE: Anyone who starts a "My system is better than your system" argument is dumb and poop.

LET'S START OFF THE THREAD WITH...
Oh my god did you hear about the what with the thing and the WOOOOAAAH!

nope. that's for discussion of Team17 games.

anyway, decent idea, but oyu should've waited till we had something to discuss. all we got right now is spore guy insulting ninty. GDC was relatively lack-luster as far as big gaming news goes, so we don't have much to really talk on.

Call me an ignoramus, but I never really knew what Spore was until I saw that! I just sort of flitted over any comments about it.

what about Ratchet & Clank: future???

there used to be a picture- looks like they put it in a Gears-of-war perspective.

which... doesn't sound like it suits it.

the graphics look... totally different, too.

Spore is looking the bombier than ever now! The tide pool phase looks great! And showing you how you make your own vehicles is so smooth! WOW.

I am sad, because Steam updated the Source Engine and Garrys Mod won't play, and I just got some extra Stargate Stuff to play with....

I WANT IT NOW GIVE ME

And I didn't mean there to be a current hot topic or anything. I just made it since Iguana made the LittleBigPlanet thread, which is an entire thread... for one game.
THIS SHOULD STOP IT. OR NOT.

There appears to now be a mollecular stage.

I dunno.
It's played like tetris, supposedly.

Will Wright must've said "WHY NOT".

Next they're going to add the atomic stage. Make the most advanced electron you can!
And that section will be played like Solitaire.

Spore looks like a game with great potential. I wonder how it'll work it.

Oh dear, I've thought of so many strange things for the molecular stage: What elements will your cell be based on!

"Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign of a diseased mind" - Rincewind, from Eric whilst reading a sign over the gates of Hell.

A similar quote is used by Salzella in Maskerade whilst referring to a note apparantly left behind by the Opera Ghost.
