Games you kind of fancy but are too lazy to make a descision on thread

Abooie · 8 Mar 2007 at 17:34

Kind of inspired by a couple of threads / posts I've read here today.
Everyone has a couple of games they've mulled over at some time but in the end didn't buy them due to apathy. This is a thread to suggest a game / games that you kind of fancy but can't be bothered to make a descision and for others to comment (as briefly as they like) on them.

So my 360 games are:

Quake 4
Gun
StarTrek: Legacy

Saints row
Crackdown

Oblivion: if you like rpgs / open ended adventures leave home and buy it this second

Saints Row: Fun GTA clone but I found it's violence and language left a nasty taste in my mouth and after playing I had to scour my body with bleach before getting into bed with the mrs

Crackdown: Fun fun fun but short short short. Better than the above but only a week or twos fun at most. Most fun Sandbox game I've played.

Ah remembered another game I need persuading on:

The Godfather

Mine's a mixture of apathy and cost...

Dead Rising - I do have this zombie killing urge deep within me, but meh...

Saints Row - Trouble with this is, I kinda suspect it'll be rubbish...

Quake 4 - Ooh, I dont know...

Call of Duty 3

Dead Rising - do you like Zombie flicks? do like Zombies? a 10/10 game imo - buy it, it's Dawn of the Dead (original) the game!

Call of Duty 3 - did you like the first? if yes you'll like this. In some ways I prefer the single player, great game and underrated.

CoD3 is built for multiplayer goodness!

Dead Rising for me. I keep thinking I'll get it and end up either purchasing another game or none at all. Only problem is I need to at least try and complete some of the games I have first

Mr.Orb · 9 Mar 2007 at 09:49

Saints Row - Same reason as Lunatic Dreyfus.

Zelda MM - I loved OoT... I have no idea why i didn't buy it (got it on Gamecube but not N64)

Banjo-Tooie - Again I loved Banjo-Kazooie but I didn't buy the sequel.

GTCole · 9 Mar 2007 at 10:14

Just saints row for me, got crackdown so don't think i'll bother now

ic1male · 9 Mar 2007 at 10:36

Lost Planet and CoD 3, I think.

RichieUK · 9 Mar 2007 at 11:29

Probably Crackdown. I liked the demo, but it would get pretty boring after a while. I'll probably get it when it comes down in price a bit

Begbie · 9 Mar 2007 at 13:27

crackdown and oblivion for me. Crackdown seemed good altough I could imagine it becoming very boring very quick. Oblivion I think i'm too scared too play, incase I lose my life too, lol and never played a game similar and not want to waste £40!

That was a game I had fancied for a while, but not bought for a few reasons. Finally ended up buying it when I saw it for £25, extremely glad that I did.

I've had 65 hours out of it, could quite easily get another 30 out of it but for the fact that i've had TP waiting for weeks and I want to get started on that.

I can't recommend Oblivion highly enough, once you get into the story and start exploring the world and people in it, it is truly gripping.

I'm expecting to sell it on to a lad from work next week, if he doesn't end up buying it, i'll probably put it on MM.

Dead Rising is another i've considered, ultimately the gameplay is a little too shallow for my liking.

I was tempted by that and NHL 2K7 at one point, but ended up buying neither, mostly because I couldn't decide which of the two to go for. I liked the 2K7 demo, but the NHL 07 demo was poor, a shootout just doesn't give you a feel of how the game plays.
