L4D2 FTW!

That game definetly looks awesome and killing the hell out of those zombies is fun, but does it have good multiplayer?

I haven't really played it much, I'm expecting to get a very good desktop very soon though.

Yes, it's good to play the game online with 3 friends. I believe it's on sale today.

For anyone who wanted to get Left 4 Dead 2, it's been discounted to 75% off today. Only $4.99. I'm personally waiting for Section 8: Prejudice to get knocked down in price a bit more, then I'll snag that and F.E.A.R. 3.

Oh Snap, really? Then I shall get this since it's probably the most wanted Steam I want.

I've been looking for a good survival-horror game (or even just a good horror game) for the XBOX360 or the PS3. Could anyone give me some suggestions to the best ones? I already have RE5 and AvP, but I don't consider either to be good horror games and I love the genre. And ideas?

If you haven't tried F.E.A.R yet, it's an eerie horror shooter that might be worth a try. It's one of the 360/PS3's earliest releases, but still really fun.

I'm looking for good Legend of Zelda and Star Fox Gamecube/Wii games. I already have Twilight Princess. Any suggestions?

Wind Waker, it's a pretty amazing Zelda game.

The Gamecube Star Fox games are considered pretty lackluster, but they're not god awful. If you want to look for them, Star Fox Adventures is more like a Zelda game from what I remember and Star Fox Assault is more traditional with some not so great third person parts.

You mentioned Metroid in your thread and I must recomend the Metroid Prime games. All three are great games and can be found on one disc in Metroid Prime Trilogy for the Wii. Don't bother with Metroid Prime Hunters for the DS and avoid Metroid Other M, they're not worth playing imo.

Wind Waker (GC) - The graphics are rather different from the realistic ascetics that LOZ usually has but the game is very fun and has some of the best dungeons in the franchise IMO.

Ocarina of Time Master Quest (GC) - A bit tough to find and it might be a tad expensive, but if you love OOT you get the original game plus a revised version with a new take on the dungeons.

LOZ Collector's Edition (GC) - Again, a bit tough to find and may be a tad pricey. This disk has LOZ, AoL, OOT and MM

Star Fox Assault (GC) - Most people hate this game because it isn't like Star Fox 64. Screw them, this game is awesome. Good flying segments, good ground combat, and a fairly interesting story (even if it is an exact copy and paste of the Borg Saga from Star Trek: TNG).

Star Fox Adventures (GC) - Again, this game is rather hated for not being Star Fox 64. It wasn't originally intended to be a Star Fox game anyway. Basically, its an adventure game similar to LOZ where you explore a planet with inhabited by sentient Dinosaurs. Better than it sounds.

I suggest you get a real copy of Fire Emblem:poR, it doesn't cost much nowadays anyway, I bought my copy relatively cheap in mint condition too.

Shadow of Colossus? Is that a good game? I've been looking for something new to try, I heard it was gory and such, any other games worth playing?

SotC is overrated as hell, but its a pretty fun game if you have the patience for it.

Other games worth playing? Depends on what you're looking for.

Fallout 3 - 100+ hours of single player exploring goodness.

GTA IV - Great story/campaign, you have the whole city to explore and hundreds of extra missions to complete.

Yea, I've checked in to it, it looks like a lot of fun to say the least.

Does anybody know any good RPG's for the PS3 or Wii? Tales of Xillia might not happen for a while. O:

Far as the PS3 goes, if you're looking for your regular turn based JRPG games...I'm having a hard time thinking of any. If not, here's some you can get into if you haven't...

Fallout
Dragon Age
Eternal Sonata (JRPG)
Star Ocean: The Last Hope (JRPG)
Resonance of Fate (JRPG I think)
Valkyrie Chronicles (Strategy JRPG)
Demon's Souls (Sort of?)

Disgaea 3 and 4. Disgaea 4 comes out September 6th.

Both are turn based strategy RPG's with a level cap at 9999, you will get countless hours of gameplay.

Good Wii/PS3 RPGs?

PS3:

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Mass Effect 2
Final Fantasy XIII
Resonance of Fate
Yakuza 3
Darksiders sort of counts I guess. Its closer to Zelda than anything else though.

Can't think of anything for the Wii. If you have a GC memory card I can recommend some good GC RPGs though.

Actually I own both Mass Effect 2 and Final Fantasy XIII, both are great games, Yakuza 3? if it has any RPG elements then i'm willing to try it, Elder scrolls seems like a potential; game as well.

Disgaea 3 and 4. Disgaea 4 comes out September 6th.

OMG! I love Disgaea, I already own all 3 games, I love it, so is 4 coming out on the 6th? Awesome this might be the game to get since it's so close. :bee:

I've played Valkyrie knights, excellent title, i've always showed interest in Star ocean, I might give it a try soon.

If finalark's throwing Yakuza 3 into the mix, I'll say Yakuza 4.

Because it is also very good, and probably easier to find.
What really? is it actually better than any of the previous games?
