What Video Game Are You Playing?

I noticed that there are a "What music are you listening to" and What TV program are you watching" topics, but not a video game topic. So, I thought I would start one . This topic can include anything from Pong, to a Wolf3d Mod, or anything current. Pretty much anything that is considered a video game fits this topic!

I'll go first!

Fallout 3 DLC Mothership Zeta...

Lego Indiana Jones

Now playing Mafia

Fallout 3 DLC Mothership Zeta....Completed!

Gears of War 2, Dead Space, & Thief: Deadly Shadows...

Runescape... can't play wolf3d, rtcw, fallout 3, or oblivion.

Batman Arkham Asylum (demo). It's pretty flippin' awesome...

Resident Evil 5 and Batman: Arkham Asylum Demo(again)!

Lego Batman

Shadow of the Colossus...simply awesome stuff.

Puzzle Quest: Galactrix

Runescape. Lol. [I'm testing this rank picture]

Wolfenstein! It's actually really good...

Oblivion, runescape, gutar hero, mafia wars, mafia.... at the same time

How does that work exactly, at the same time? 0_0

very carefully. cuz im so pro

Fable II. Never finished it!

Is Fable 2 any good? Although I'd still stick it to Oblivion.

Fable 2 is epic. buy it.

Right now I'm playing WOlf 3D of course. I mention in the graphics and sound section that I've moved all the nice souped up Redux textures into Newwolf by resizing them. It looks so good it reinvigorated my eagerness for the game. No 3D models! All the original stuff looks better now (except the new high resolution texture pack that came out this year, it's fantastic). Before I did this I played the lost episode Ultimate challenge for the first time and had a blast. I usually only play levels without code changes that works with Newwolf, so they are often the older maps. I recently discovered the 800 levels released by Apogee back in the day that somehow I'd missed and is now freeware and played the first set, it was awful at first until I got more towards the end (he got better as he went). I'm sure other sets will be better. Right now I'm playing with original ID levels, storming through them.
Before I got back into Wolfenstein I've been playing Heroes II/III a few months back (first time in years I played it more then a few hours and quitting for another year), then recently Flatout and Flatout 2 (This was started because I got Whiplash (Fatal Racing) working in Dos Virtual PC perfectly). Crashing cars is great fun, and throwing around your driver, to the point sometimes where I forget to do the actual races. But then I'm motivated to maybe unlock another derby event. Again, the first time in years I've even bothered with racing games. So alot of different things lately.

Fable II was really good. I beat it today. It was done really well with some great humor. Much like the first Fable but a lot longer!

now that youv'e beaten it , you can just mess around. Theres alot to do still. plus, i bet you can mod it to make new questst and stuff

Hmmm. That would be cool. But I have it for the 360, so probably not...

Just beaten Wolfenstein...its very VERY good

aww..... you know, it has been done (on 360). but its really annoying to get it to work right.

Intersting. do they have a multiplayer version?

Multiplayer is with the game. Although I never play multiplayer stuff. I heard it was pretty good though...

Seems to me, at elast from RTCW 1, that mutliplayer was popular. Hopefully I can get in and play against some players!@

Yes, Return to Castle Wolfenstein had very highly touted multiplayer. I haven't even finished single player on that! It's nothing like the original and it's a good game but just hard for me to associate it with the Wolfenstein 3-D.

Batman Arkham Asylum. An instant classic!

BTW, you talked aobut wolf3d with some new texutres and all... can I see a pict of it?

This link shows screenshots of Newwolf with the new textures and should
allow you to download them. This was reported in 3D Dome in April.

Here are some screenshots I took. The first shows the 4 textures
missing from the high resolution texture pack that I recreated myself
just to avoid the eyesore.
These are all clickable for full resolution

Here are more that show off the redux textures I put into NewWolf.






Sorry about the previous post, I misunderstood. You were playing the new Wolfenstein! I saw it at the store for 50 dollars. If I can actually complete RTCW, then I'll buy it.

Looks blurry whent he picture is so big

Well, blurry is better then enormous pixels. It is a big improvement over the originals sprites, but they are still basically the original so not much more detail. The main effect is removing the pixelization when getting near the creatures and adding dimension to the sprites.

So if anybody wants to design 3D models, I'm all for it! But I think realistically, it would have happened by now if somebody was going to do so. Even the Doom II 3D models are blurry when you move up to them (alot of them anyway, not all).

Batman Arkham Asylum. Completed today! A GREAT game. If you like Batman just a little bit then you NEED to play this!

Your avatar on is on his website! Of course it's from TIE Fighter, Vice Admiral Thrawn.

Yes, that's my website and yes, that's Thrawn from TIE Fighter. Good eye Jedi!

Is the high resolution walls and such for only that mod? Or is it good for every mod? I think it's the fromer >.>

You can only use the high resolution textures for the walls in a source port that supports them. There's probably no way you could work them into one of the mod's that uses the original wolf executable file.

That same site though says they will also enhance the graphics for Wolfendoom! I totally love those mods and think that would be one of the coolest things anybody has ever done! But we'll have to see if they actually deliver on the promise. The designer of the original Wolfendoom, to my knowledge, left modding at least 5 years ago so to get any kind of update would be great. Technically you could probably rename alot of the textures from the Wolfenstein pack for Newwolf we're talking about, and make alot of them work for Wolfendoom if you wanted, but alot of the textures probably wouldn't match the original. Been along time since I've played Wolfendoom so I'm not really sure how well they'd match. I recently merged 2 different graphics packs into one for Doom and Doom II, the best of a really old 200MB pack nobody seems to have anymore from at least 5 years ago with a newer lower res set that has many that are still better then the old set. It looks fantastic. I'd like the same attention to all things Wolfenstein. I'm not an artist myself so can't really design them.

Edit. You would of course need to use a source port like Risen 3D (the only one I've seen Wolfendoom work properly on that actually uses your 3D hardware) for those textures to work at all. It won't work in the Doom engine either.

Last night I got the RED RING OF DEATH! It's my second time! Well, no 360 gaming for me for 2-3 weeks. Microsoft-you stink.

Once I got the pink screen of death while palying Fallout3.

Got my 360 back (finally)! Played more Batman Arkham Asylum on my brand new HD tv. Awesome!

Bioshock. Again. For the second time...

Batman Arkham Asylum. Beat it for the second time the other day. Almost done with the Invisible Predator Challenge Maps...this game is REALLY good...

Zombie Apocalypse!

Yay got 99 fishing on Runescape. Lol.

Mafia completed, now Painkiller.

Shadow Complex. Awesome old school 2d side-scroller action!

Painkiller completed, now playing Condemned

Perfect Dark Zero
