My friend and I have been switching off trying to beat it on Vet. It took us over an hour to get out of the damn TV broadcast building. I personally think the ending to the game is weak.

JonnydaJibba 2007-11-16 08:24 AM

Yeah that is one of the hardest parts. Unfortunately it gets harder.

I've got mixed feelings about the ending.

NevadaSTi 2007-11-16 08:35 AM

I wish the game lasted longer. I too thought it was a little too short. I actually liked the ending, you are about ready to eat a 50AE from a Desert Eagle. BOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!

100_Percent_Juice 2007-11-16 07:00 PM

I give Pro Street a staggering 2... out of 5 lug nuts.

Haha. . . this reminds me of a challenge I had with a few employees at my store when Star Wars Republic Commando was new. . . playing through on hard difficulty, using only the pistol. Fun :)

Damn man, my new roommate just bought Rock Band....

and we played it for 5-6 hours (kinda lost track of time there).

JonnydaJibba 2007-11-29 08:15 AM

What instruments does he have?

He bought the pack, which came with one guitar, drums and mic. We're going to try to get the other guitar soon.

That will make for a great time at social events I bet. Or make a social event out of any night.

Bobo has been letting me borrow AssCreed. It's pretty fun so far, despite the many, MANY things they either left out or messed up on. There are a lot of really cool things about the game, but a lot of shit that I feel is holding this game back from being a great title.

I know it's already been said but CoD4 is amazing. The online play is so hectic!

JonnydaJibba 2007-11-29 02:18 PM

I bet it looks amazing on your computer no?

Libila 2007-11-29 02:27 PM

It's pretty good, but it could be better.

I'm going to be building another tower shortly after Christmas though. There are too many things I want to change about my current one, so I'm just going to start fresh.

From what I've been hearing its an incredible engine with a pretty mediocre game built on top of it.

Hopefully Assassins Creed 2 will be better.

JonnydaJibba 2007-11-29 03:10 PM

Yeah basically. I'll give you one example of a stupid mistake that could have been easily fixed. HELL, I'll give you two. There are piles of hay around the cities that you can hide in and jump into from high buildings. Well when you jump off of a building into one, nobody seems to notice. Nobody goes "Shit man, you see that crazy asshole just jump 5 stories?" The second one involves pickpocket missions. All you have to do is walk behind a guy and make sure you aren't picking his pocket (hold B) when he turns around. This is extremely easy to do. When you complete a successful pickpocket, the guy you JUST stole from will check his pocket and do the "Now where did I put my pen?" dance while you stand feet from him. It's quite silly.

I already talked to Tim about this, but it's worth mentioning. Hardcore mode is where it's at. No HUD at all, unless your teams UAV is active. And 1-2 bullet kills. It tones down the "OMG what's going on?" of normal CoD4 multiplayer and replaces it with perfect FPS online action.

You have obviously never pick pocketed from anyone before. Thats exactly how it happens.

So I was playing Rock Band w/ Nick and Tyson last night. Now I have a wicked blister on my thumb from the stupid fake guitar string thing... I guess strumming it like a real guitar is a no-no... :ow:

100_Percent_Juice 2007-11-30 11:23 AM

^what ever happened to that game chair you were making?

It's on my todo list:

1) Make sure my GF doesn't leave me 'cause I'm so busy
2) Try not to get fired for working "only" 60 hours/week
3) Deal with everyday problems like paying bills and eating, etc
4) Build a race car
5) Handle director duties for Reno SCCA
6) Get SECCS hoodies printed
7) Get SECCS stickers cut
189) Build chair for playing video games in

Yeah, that guitar is busted too. Can't upstrum anymore.

But, it sounds like its a known defect. You barely have to touch the strum bar. It doesn't click like in Guitar Hero, its analog-ish, so a lot of people are overdoing it and breaking the strum. Aparently, EA has been good about replacing them though, so we're hoping for the best.

Well FYI, it was busted when I picked up the guitar! I noticed in the 1st song I tried to double-pick that I was missing half the notes!

(Don't let Jason kick my ass!)

Yeah, he said you're not allowed to use the guitar anymore.

Though, I think you are right. Every time I tried an up, it wouldn't work, but I thought it might just be my noobness. But, like I said, EA has said its a known issue with the original batch, and it seems like its fairly easy to get a replacement, so he's gonna try.
